If you’re looking for easy access to the old city this is a convenient location. We were able to walk every where. There’s so much to do and see at all times. The location was very safe, clean, spacious and comfortable.
Character is endless in the beautifully restored and maintained riad. It felt like visiting a castle. The rooms are not conventional or modern but that’s what give them their charm.
The staff go above and beyond to care for any request. We left very early and were given a box breakfast to take along for our journey. So very thoughtful. We will be back to visit many times!

The staff was amazing. The receptionist Ikaram welcomed us with a cup of tea and invited us to wait in the garden. It was impressive to see how attentive she was with us while multitasking and helping other guests at the same time. She was so kind and responsive!
The riad is in a great location — just a few minutes’ walk from the Blue Gate of the Medina. The area feels safe and quiet.
The room was spacious, and the breakfast was delicious and varied.
Totally recommended!

Stayed 3 nights and only had one with hot water. Excellent location. Heating system was not very good. Lovely staff but put my “needs to be refrigerated” medicine in the freezer so I had to throw out $1000 worth of medicine. breakfast was quite nice.

Riad was very quaint, staff were really good and caring and ready to help. Breakfast options were not great but it was ok for us as we are poor eaters. Parking is not available onsite had to do street parking and paid 40dhs for 2 nights. When we went to check out we were told that stay has to be paid by cash and we didn’t plan for that so had to look for local ATMs to get the money to pay. Location of property is great as we could walk everywhere. I would highly recommend this place

We had the pleasure of staying in this Fiad this past weekend. It was advertised as a three bedroom deluxe suite. I was sharing it with friends. Once we arrived, we were told that that room was not available. They don’t have anything that is three bedrooms. We were a little off put because we had done a lot of research and looked at the pictures of the three bedroom suite.
Myriam and staff, however, bent over backwards and was able to accommodate us into a different suite. They did not charge us extra and made sure our stay was comfortable. They also arranged a guide for us to see the Medina as well as a day trip the next day to, see Meknes and Volubilis.
It’s a lovely property with an even more lovely staff.

Things to like - location is close to petite taxi and near the top of the Medina which in Fes is important because it's built on a hill.
The official guide recommended was decent but still took you to the rug shops etc even after saying no thanks.
The manager is pretty good and helpful as is the night manager, but doesn't speak much English which wasn't an issue. The day person is less helpful. Laundry, was more expensive than in Europe, and they separated whites and charged for two loads, and they didn't come back very clean.
They provided breakfast to go on the day we left early.
We would say it's an average stay that's got a good location for easy in and out access.
Didn't get a chance to try the pool, but the AC worked well.
Note that all of the rooms have the bathrooms and the bedrooms on different floors within the same room. Ours had a low clearance door which I hit (6') maybe 5 out of 10 times, mostly at night.
The bathrooms are decent. In Morocco, already remember to open the floor drain in the shower or it will fill up, which no one told us.
The double beds are very firm. If you have the 3rd person bed is soft, because it's actually a couch.
