The palace is really old and needs alot of maintenance I can't say it is worth the visit but if you like old palaces you will sure feel the vintage and oldness The place is 2.5 euros or 25 dirhams for entrance It is now owned by a family member and he is sitting at the gate and no one is working there so you will be on your own for the whole visit Special needs wheelchair entrance is not available Special needs wheelchair parking is not available Parking is available nearby

It is a hidden jewel of Fez. It is completely original without restored, the architecture, the art...everything is amazing. Not many tourists there during my visit, I guess it is not in the top lists of tourist attractions. The guardian Mr Abdou is an artist with his Galary inside the palace. It is a very nice Galary. It is the best experience of my visit in Fez.

Beautiful and peaceful building; the best place we visited in Fes. It is completely relaxed, with a large display of art by the building resident, and some other interesting quirks such as a record and camera collection. Yes the building is falling apart in some places, but it really adds to the charm. Also a gorgeous dog on the premises!

Just as others have already mentioned, this place is not maintained at all which is a shame because we can tell that behind all the grime and dust is an old beautiful building with a lot of history. The price of admission by the man at the door is way too much for what you'll find inside. Definitely not worth a visit.

Unbelieveably beautiful and surprisingly empty - we were only 2 people in the whole place. The guardian working there is a very kind man that is an artist and you can find his paintings inside some of the palace’s rooms. Don’t miss this spot if you’re visiting the medina! Entrance is 25 dirham

Visiting El Glaoui Palace is a trip between the history of a family and discovering the life and art of his owner. The palace, probably one of the oldest in town is fatiscent, without any facilities and in some point unsafe. But for these reasons is fashinating and incredible. 25 dhr
