Fading former glory
Pros:

I acknowledge I'm being tough on my rating here, but this hotel holds itself out as a 5 star property. If they had said they were a 4 star property, I'd give them a top rating.

In its heyday this must have been a grand property and it still has elements of that former glory. However, there are a number of minor things which add up. I think the key issue is that either the staff don't see, don't understand or don't care about the issues.

The shower in the bath was hopeless with a short glass divider which did nothing to protect the bathroom floor. As a consequence there was water over the floor and we had to use the towels to dry the floor after every shower. People in Morocco must be tall as I struggled to reach the sink and also the shampoo in the shower.

The chairs throughout the property, and especially in the breakfast dining room, need to be re-upholstered as the piping is coming off quite a few of them and they look tired. Similarly, a refresh of the paintwork is needed as there are scuff marks on the walls in a number of locations throughout the property.

We stayed for 3 nights and the breakfast was disappointing. The fried eggs were like rubber. Ask the chef to do you an omelet as that was good. The staff don't clear the tables regularly so you end up with a number of plates on your table. We dined in the main restaurant one evening and to be fair, the service there was much better.

On two of the nights we stayed they had big functions in the garden right in front of our room. The noise was really bad. Fortunately, the functions didn't go on to late, so we were able to eventually get to sleep.

The location of the hotel is very good. It's less than a 10 minute taxi ride from the port and walking distance to the medina.

The staff at the hotel were great and a few of them went out of their way to help us.

If management and the owners were prepared to invest a bit of money to refresh the property, especially the lobby which is a bit underwhelming after looking at the property from the outside, then I think they would be able to secure a stronger returning client base. Maybe they should stay themselves as a guest in a general room to see their offering from the customer's eyes.

All of the above said, if I were to return to Tangier, I'd still have the Villa de France high on my list of places to stay.

Cons:

I had been really looking forward to my stay at the hotel, which I had specifically chosen so that I could stay at Tangier’s most famous historic colonial hotel. Unfortunately, it never came to that.

On the day of my arrival, I first received a request to review my stay. I wrote back to them saying that this must be a mistake, as I wouldn’t be arriving until the evening, and asked about the expected taxi fare from the station. At 6.30 pm (!!!) on the day of my arrival, I received a reply stating that there was a technical issue with my room, that I had been moved to another hotel, and that they appreciated my understanding. For a hotel in this price category, it’s surprising that something like this is only noticed at 6.30 pm, that they don’t proactively contact the guest in good time, and that they don’t even offer any form of compensation. Overall, very disappointing.
