Thank goodness for the palais salem. Superb location in beautiful gardens, After walking out of the oumensour which is a disgrace we were warmly welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you to Habib. More

Don't book this hotel expecting modern luxury. However, do book it if you want a place with a special atmosphere, lots of history, and charming gardens to explore. We stayed in one of the new rooms and it was very big, clean and quite comfortable but a bit anonymous, but the gardens of the hotel were our favourite bit of... More

This a difficult review to write. The hotel has so many problems that I cannot award more than 3 stars, but we loved it. It is an old palace built within Taroudant's city walls, with the walls actually forming one side of the hotel. There are numerous small gardens, fountains and the like, full of mature trees and shrubs. We... More

And the nice main pool, despite some maintenance problems with a pigeon plague. Restaurant was a bit more mixed: quite limited B'fast, decent dinner, but constant pestering by a crowd of begging cats. Our 'patio... More

We enjoyed a delicious meal of the day at this beautiful hotel in Taroudant More

The Hotel Palais Salam is created out of old Colonial buildings, so the architecture, mood and detail of the buildings is like stepping back in time. There are seats around fantastically detailed decoration, plus lost of little hidden places and guest rooms opening onto planted courtyards with old water features. Beautiful. The rooms however are a little tired. My room... More

Having just arrived back from Hotel Salem in the early hours of Sunday 18 September I felt a feeling of having left my home. The Hotel Salem is a wonderful place full of history and culture if a little shabby looking. This all adds to the charm of it and the people are full of caring to ensure that your... More
