Grand Hotel Villa de France

I love this hotel. It’s very homey. Younger and older staff are all extremely kind. Particularly the Staff at breakfast. Comfy bed, Charming rooms, Excellent showers, Pleasant Pool, Location is spot on. I’m always looking forward to coming back. This is my second time and there will certainly be a third one. Yes, of course it’s not a real five stars, but the price is absolutely reasonable for what you get.

I enjoyed my stay. It's a refinished classic hotel. The marble in the bath reminded me of a classic hotel in Barcelona. The rooms were well equipped and kind of cool with an art deco flair. The furniture matched and was impressive. The formal dining room was beautiful and the breakfast area was also nice. The piano bar served all sorts of alcohol, but unfortunately wasn't providing live music during my visit.

This a lovely hotel right in the heart of the old town of Tangier. 2 minutes walk to the main streets and 10 minutes walk to the port and beaches. Take away the surroundings and you could think that you are in the French riviera and that James Bond could turn up at any time. Being a five star hotel it certainly has the charm and feel to it. Having spent a week there we felt it was let down by the attention to detail in what it takes to be a five star hotel. 1. No bottled water supplied to the room. 2. Extremely cheap toilet rolls in the rooms. 3. On three occasions we had to ask for new towels as they weren't replaced after cleaning. 4. The coffee machine at breakfast was terrible as was the coffee. 5. The toaster took between ten and fifteen minutes to make your toast. 6. The breakfast offering could have been better. 7. Every morning we had to ask for a teaspoon for the coffee. 8. We only had one sachet of tea and one coffee in our room and no milk. 9. The safe in our room had battery acid leaking out of the safe door. Don't let this put you off as the hotel is probably the best around the area. The management just need to work on the little things a bit more. And yes, we would stay there again, and please get a better coffee machine and toaster.
