Fez Morocco s cultural gem Morocco s third most populated city, founded by Moulay Idriss, a descendant of the Prophet, Fez is considered to be the country s cultural and spiritual capital. The heritage of several cultures and civilisations is omnipresent in the ancient city. Its universities, mosques, palaces and riads as well as the legendary gates and ramparts that encircle the Medina bear witness to the city s rich history. Following the signature in Fez of the French protectorate in 1912, a new city was built facing the Medina, attracting the middle and upper classes and bridging the gap between tradition and modernity. Fez is considered to be the country s cultural and spiritual capital. The Fez Medina, a UNESCO world heritage site, has remained unchanged since the 12th century. It is renowned for its wealth of craftsmen, who jealously guard their know-how and hand it down from generation to generation. The deep blue colour of the ceramics produced in Fez is one of the city s symbols. Among the cultural events held in Fez, the Sacred Music Festival, taking place every year in June, draws the keenest music lovers.
calque recto Hotel Sahrai between tradition and modernity Hotel Sahrai s layout was designed by internationally renowned architect Christophe Pillet. Its signature decorative style is pure and elegant, incorporating details inspired by Moroccan culture into a contemporary design. Built where the summer palace of Maréchal Lyautey, Resident-General of Morocco from 1912 to 1925, formerly stood, the hotel reproduces the emblematic style of the large arcades that once adorned the building s facade. The hotel also re-interprets the Medina s architectural codes with a modern touch. Natural, noble local materials like Taza stone, marble, wood, metal and glass were used to create a luxurious environment. The architect Christophe Pillet created an atmosphere of serenity and ultimate luxury. The hotel features 50 rooms and suites, the majority of which offer a panoramic view of the Fez El Bali district and the green areas surrounding the city. Large picture windows, the choice of furniture and the blend of fabrics and materials used by Christophe Pillet help create an atmosphere of serenity and ultimate luxury. The hotel s two restaurants offer a unique gastronomic experience including traditional Moroccan and top-quality international dishes. The hotel also features an open-air bar with a panoramic terrace, a steam bath, a fitness centre and an infinity pool.
