This hotel is a gem in the heart of Tangier. Spain can be viewed from the terrace. The rooms are built cozy and delightful with attention to detail taking one back to the old colonial era. Breakfast had ample options. Overall great stay.

Property was beautiful, and the bathroom was excellent. Breakfast was also great. Offers one of the best views in Tangier.
One complaint was that the staff were rude for no apparent reason. For a hotel this grandiose and with this history, my partner and I were repeatedly surprised by how cold and unwelcoming the lobby staff were.

I absolutely loved my stay at Grand Hotel Villa de France. If you’re looking for a place with tons of character and history that’s the place for you. The location is amazing 5 minutes walk from the Medina but still in a quiet area far from the crowd, pitch perfect location. The terrasse is gorgeous.

A cool hotel from a time passed. 90 years old but updated rooms. Really classy but also approachable. If you can, stay at this hotel. It’s right by the Medina. It’s got history. They have a really cool terrace and a bar with music.

This is a very nice hotel in a spectacular location. The view out over Tangier Bay makes it obvious why Matisse holed up and painted here for a while. The hotel is quite nice and the staff is very responsive. They arranged for our cabs both from the port and to the airport without a hitch. The hotel is just uphill from the Grand Socco and the medina, so it’s an easy walk to the things you probably will want to see.
