Bab Ftouh had an important defensive role during its time. Now a historic site, you can only imagine some of the scenes its mighty walls have witnessed.

You'll be spoiled for sightseeing choice when spending time in Quartier Des Potiers. Bab Ftouh is a good place to start here, but there are numerous other interesting places to explore. Tombs of the Merenides, Medersa Bou-Inania and Blue Gate are close to the history-filled fortress and will fill in your day nicely.

7.2/10 Good! (221 reviews)

Nice place has a lot of potential. Took more money than what agreed through Expedia. Not the most helpful of people ask for ice on a couple of occasions to no help. The fridge is terrible for keeping anything close to cold. Asked for an iron but to no help. They do not change the bedsheets on every occasion of housekeeping. Get your money exchanged else where they don’t give a good rate. They think customer service is a smile only. For a four star hotel it behaves as a two star.
