Additional Property Description -
La Maison Bleue is a traditional Moroccan residence
built in 1915 by the Abbadi family, who are originally
from Andalusia and who still own the house. By staying
here you will be, first and foremost, the guests of a
prominent Fassi family in their own home. A haven of
peace in the heart of Fez Medina, La Maison Bleue is a
place of serenity and regeneration. The architecture of
the house is typically Fassi. The walls are covered
with intricate Zellij mosaic tiling, the blue
symbolising the ancient city, while the green
represents the colour of Islam. The grandeur of
Andalusia is evident throughout. The detail of the
elaborately carved wooden doors, antique stained-glass
windows, carved plaster and painted wood ceilings
provide a feast for the senses. A central courtyard is
surrounded by three majestic salons, where the
sumptuous fabrics and hand-picked antiquities lend the
rooms a royal ambiance unparalleled in the old city.
This is the setting for the restaurant, where our
renowned chefs will prepare for you the finest Moroccan
cuisine. Feast on slow-cooked beef or chicken tagines,
fluffy couscous with raisins and flaky almond-stuffed
pastilla, served by waiters in traditional costume and
accompanied by Andalusian and Gnaoua musicians. From
the rooftop terrace, the highest vantage point of the
old city, a panoramic view of the Medina gives you the
first taste of the medieval city waiting to be explored.
