Accor Expands in Africa with Third Fairmont Hotel in Morocco

Accor Hotels Group in partnership with Katara Hospitality, a leading global hotel owner, developer, and operator, is set to expand its presence in Africa with the opening of the new Fairmont Tazi Palace Tangier in the Northern region of Morocco.

Set to open in the 4th quarter of 2022, the new luxury hotel will consolidate the long-standing partnership between the two groups, with Katara Hospitality already owning several landmark hotels managed by Accor.

The historical palace will feature 133 luxurious rooms and suites, a Fairmont Spa, multiple restaurants and bars, as well as modern conference and banquet spaces.

Located in the city of Tangier in the North of Morocco, the property enjoys an enviable location at the heart of the upscale residential Boubana area, offering guests convenient proximity to the main attractions of the city: 10 minutes away from the city centre and the Corniche, and only 20 minutes from the airport.

Nestled in the heart of the city and in one of its most exclusive locations, Fairmont Tazi Palace is perfectly set on a forested hill offering unparalleled views of Tangier.

Visiting guests will be immersed in an environment steeped in rich history while enjoying charismatic and engaging service. The luxurious place features sumptuous Arab-Andalusian architecture, combining ancient and modern design while staying true to Moroccan tradition.

Once open, the property will cater to guests travelling for leisure or business, as well as for those looking for an awe-inspiring stay with friends and family in Tangier, one of the most beloved cities in Morocco.

Accor is one of the world’s most diverse hospitality group with over 425 hotels across India, Middle East, Africa and Turkey. It currently operates 41 properties in Morocco with a pipeline of 4 properties in development.
