Sahrai, the guardian of the millennial city of Fez

When traveling to Morocco, no one will miss Fez, an ancient city dating back to 789 AD, which is recognized as the starting point of the Moroccan dynasty. More than 9,000 alleys are intertwined into a complex maze, and you can easily get lost in the medieval atmosphere. After saying goodbye to the quirky spirits in the air of the Chouara Tannery, you can come to the front of the Royal Palace of Fez. Across the valley in front of you, on the hilltop opposite is the Sahrai, a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH). Every SLH hotel is unique, and Sahrai is no exception. You can now "coldly" watch the medieval city of Fez, the first World Heritage Site in Morocco. The hotel blends Moroccan traditional style with modern design, with rocks and floor-to-ceiling windows, hand-painted vases and lanterns, creating a harmonious overall look. The entrance is like an ancient city gate, as if you are about to walk into the old days of Fez. But the moment you step into the hotel, the Christmas tree and contemporary art, the mottled light and shadow in the afternoon, and the Medina outside the window, make you feel excited. The background walls of the front desk, restaurant, and bedroom are outstanding, with traditional geometric patterns redesigned in a modern way, both complex and simple. The black marble bathroom, the deformed design of the Arabian magic lamp, and the Acqua di Parma toiletries in the room highlight the uniqueness of Sahrai. The restaurants at Sahrai are outstanding, with stunning views of both modern and ancient Fez. The French restaurant and Amaraz Moroccan restaurant are opposite each other, on the same floor as the pool. Just in time for Friday, you can enjoy a couscous by the pool and experience the traditional Moroccan food culture in the warm winter sun. Amaraz also has live performances by old men in the evening, adding a touch of Moroccan mystery. Jungle Fes is located on the top floor of Hotel Sahrai, with a great view. It is a very fashionable and fun place in Fez. The restaurant not only has excellent wine, but also has a jungle-inspired design, with avant-garde sculptures that are a bit unexpected. Before sunset, you can come up for a cocktail, Sahrai Lover. The ingredients of each drink are clearly listed on the menu. If you don't want it too sweet, you can remove the rose syrup, and then order a tapas. You can watch the millennial city of Fez being shrouded in the sunset and wrapped in the twilight until the lights are on. Morocco is simply too enchanting. Travel without boundaries, enjoy the extraordinary. Every SLH hotel is carefully selected. If you want to experience the modern side of Morocco in the millennial city of Fez, Sahrai will not disappoint you.
