Location

Close to town but distanced from the chaos, this central hotel offers both modernity and tradition. Located in a residential neighborhood within a short walk of the old quarter, the Intercontinental Hotel is a modern business hotel with some classic Moroccan design elements that preserve a subtle moorish ambience. These include: a manicured pool and garden area, the liberal use of archways, rich oriental rugs and traditionally-attired guest quarters - plus the dining onsite offers both Moorish and more international dishes, though local specialities are always better. For those arriving by ferry, the port is only a short cab ride away and the old medina is within easy walking distance, as are plenty of shops and restaurants.
