Great Mosque Tours

With their tall minarets, curved domes and mosaic work, mosques are often some of the most exquisite buildings in a destination. Great Mosque is a tranquil place of worship on many travelers' itineraries.

You'll soon discover why this Meknes Muslim temple is popular with travelers. If you're looking for other things to see here, Bou Inania Medersa, Moulay Ismail University, and Bab el-Mansour are in the area too. They won't take long to get to from Great Mosque.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (128 reviews)
Property was nice but not overwhelming. austere would be the way to describe the decor. The rooms were a good size and service was good. But overall, there was nothing memorable about this Riad. Also, as is true for most riads in the Medina, one would have to be picked at the nearest car access and be transported by luggage service to the Riad itself. We are used to this, but Dar Bensouda was quite much farther than what would be typical. Good place, but given stiff competition of riads in Marrakech (so many great options at this price level), will likely not come back…

This place was fantastic! The space is 10/10 it’s such beautiful riad and was worth every penny spent. The staff were super hospitable and gave 5 star service, anything you needed they had already done or would help you. I highly recommend this place, can’t wait to come back!
