It’s the typical riad, with the lovely internal courtyard and all the wonderful decorations that make it feel authentic . The three people that work at the front desk are so helpful and nice. Truly nice to have their help . The terrace for breakfast was lovely upstairs And they prepare all their baked goods . Also they have access to a Hammam nearby f or a relaxing service. It’s easy to be dropped off by a taxi and be picked up for transportation . The only challenge is the walk to the Medina … you can use your phone for guidance because it’s easy to get lost . It was tricky returning back . But most places in Fez are that way. It’s not a dangerous place- it’s safe. It’s just that it’s hard to figure out all the small streets and turns.. But that’s part of the charm. Hotel was lovely , my room was beautiful

Experience was fantastic. Clean, comfortable, great staff, delicious breakfast. Only issue is people will try to direct you into parking spots or garages. Your vehicle will be safe but its a hustle for money. There is a garage right next to the hotel that is less money. If I'm in Fes again I will definitely be coming back.

We had a fantastic stay at this gem of a Riad. The staff were exceptionally welcoming, friendly and helpful. They kindly arranged our transport, shared lots of information with us and connected us with the best local guide Muhammed, with whom we had the best day! The Riad itself is absolutely gorgeous with so many authentic items framed all around like art pieces, which they absolutely are. The roof terrace with breath taking views, delicious breakfast and unlimited mint tea were such lovely bonuses! A very special thanks to the incredibly brilliant Imane, Yesmina and Muhammed!

Greeted nicely by the husband and wife duo. Very hospitable. After going out, there were a couple of times that the front door was locked and we weren't given the key to open it so had to knock to have someone open it. Breakfast is served on the roof which is nicely set up.

Very nice place that showcases beautiful tile, stucco and wood work. It is cozy and very friendly.
