Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Was a very nice Riad, but staff was limited in able to answer our questions. The Fez medina is one of the largest and very hard to navigate, so a little help would have been nice (as they did in Marrakesh). But there was no one really around to answer these questions. Othmane was available to call, but hard to navigate this over the phone. Also, our booking was for 4 adults and the 2 single beds are not suitable for adults. They are 2/3rds the size of a single bed and not a full length. May work for a child but definitely not for an adult. The breakfast was excellent.

Excellent welcome and staff. Breakfast was good, and assistance with luggage was excellent. The area around the property was difficult to see because the property was located on a very narrow street in the old town, and we did not have much time to investigate. Also, it's not possible to drive into the property location. You need assistance with luggage to get inside.

This was a disappointing stay and our least favorite riad during our whole 2 weeks in Morocco. The riad is very basic, the room was cramped and stifling. Basically the opposite of grand. The staff was kind, helpful and attentive, which was the saving grace. If you choose to stay here, expect a 3 star facility.

Le Grand Alkaraz was a perfect Riad for our family. The common areas were beautiful and the rooms inviting (with great AC). Breakfast was a highlight, as was the proximity to the Medina. We’d recommend without hesitation.

The Grand Alcazar was a magical place of beauty and delight. The riad itself was worthy of the great palaces that one only gets to visit nowadays: beautiful plaster, wood, paint, tiles, and metal artisanship all around. The team there is simply fantastic and made us feel like family from the moment we stepped in - thank you Omar, thank you Youssef! We enjoyed just staying in to read a book in such beauty during the warmer time of the day, or just eating something delicious from the kitchen. Have a look at the many books on Morocco - very much worthwhile. We also enjoyed the location: so easy to get to and right next to the medina. All in all, the most magical experience in Morocco or anywhere else in the world for that matter. I cannot recommend this place too much.

An Incredible Experience
I frequently stay in hotels all around the world. Le Grand Alcazar represented a new level in hospitality to me. From the moment you walk into the Riad, you understand that this is a very special place. Extremely well decorated in a sympathetic and original Moroccan style, the staff warmly welcome you. I chose a panorama room which had a small terrace overlooking the Medina of Fes. The room was beautifully appointed with cool aircon. The included breakfast is a sumptuous affair, with lots of fresh bread, pastries and a myriad of Moroccan curiosities. I would like to make a special mention for Youssef, who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you for a wonderful experience in Fes Medina.

Best Riad in Fes
The owners of the Riad told me that they try to hire people who have a good heart rather than people with experience because you can teach service but not heart. They have succeeded beyond their expectations. Ghizlane & Youssef, and the rest of the staff, provided the best service that we’ve ever had at any hotel and they made us feel like family, not customers. I can’t recommend them any higher. You will not be disappointed if you stay here.
