A fabulous Riad. Stunning interior. Great location in the heart of the Fez Medina. One thing to keep in mind is that there are lot of stairs. Fez is hard if you aren't fit. We were fine but my mother would have had difficulties.

We had a great visit. We stayed for a few nights. The hotel is technically two joined buildings. One side has a swimming pool that is great to use on a hot day. There is an extensive roof deck with good views of Fes and comfortable seating. The restaurant is good - we sometimes at breakfast, lunch and dinner there. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. Also, the staff really went out of their way to help us. We used the spa and it was a highlight too.

We were told by everyone this was the best Riad in Fez and they were right. It’s about a 10 minute walk from the drop off point but it’s worth it. It’s a beautiful place like traveling back in time. We had a suite and it was large and very comfortable. The staff was amazing, very helpful. The food was made to order and it was great. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Fez.

The property was beautiful and very well maintained. The staff were excellent, particularly the GM, Yassine. He went to great lengths to make sure we were comfortable and felt welcome during a very busy week. We are grateful he was there and are glad to have met him.

Absolutely gorgeous, historic riad in the epicenter of the Fes Medina! The staff is beyond helpful, the rooms are large and comfortable and the views of the medina from the THREE rooftop terraces are simply stunning and cannot be beat! Don’t hesitate to book your stay here.
