This Riad was amazing! The manager was outstanding! I forget how to spell his name, but it started with an H. We also met the owner, a very hospitable and kind woman. This place is immaculate! The design and decor are so open and pleasing to the eye. Our accommodations were very comfortable. We had a room with an upstairs and downstairs bedrooms. Comfortable beds, very nicely decorated. Bathrooms were upscale. “H” really looked out for us. He actually met us in the parking lot. He gave us a lot of good information and kept the scammers away from us. Believe me there are some all over. Of all the Riads we stayed at I’d have to say this was my favorite! If you’re going to Fez, try and stay here. It is easy walking to the Medina and it’s so worth it.

This riad is beautifully designed with a touch of european feel and large open space. The room was spacious, very clean and had a balcony. The manager and owners are all very friendly. The area is quiet but also felt safe. It is walking distance to all the shops and restaurants within the medina. Just make sure you get dropped off by the parking lot near the hotel. Our tour bus dropped us off at a different location so we had trouble finding the Riad. Management was quick to respond to Expedia messages and had someone come out to find us and bring us the the Riad. The thai restaurant near the hotel was also very good and clean. Overall a great experience and highly recommended.

Riad Al Ansari is a beautiful riad which has been recently renovated to the highest standard. The rooms are spacious and airy with high ceilings and Moroccan architectural detail. I had a lovely room with a view of the courtyard. Most importantly, Hicham, the manager, was very hospitable and welcoming. He is charming and made me feel totally comfortable and safe. As well as eating at the riad for breakfast and for one dinner, I followed his recommendations for dining and was very impressed. Everything about this riad was excellent, including the location. I have no hesitation recommending it.

Great service, Clean & Comfortable, Good location

We enjoyed two nights (29-30 March 2024). The Riad is super clean. Our superior suite on the top floor with three beautiful large windows and a very comfortable king size bed was spacious. The bathroom and large shower was also spacious with towels, a hand wash cloth and bathrobes. There is a nice roomy area with two chairs to enjoy some relaxing time. The breakfast was excellent. Check in & check out was very good. The pictures on the website are accurate. A special 'thank you' to Hicham for his excellent service and kindness. His English is great.

Très bien situé, à quelques minutes à pied des principales artères de la médina. Très bien placé aussi à côté du parking pour ceux qui sont en voiture.

Perfecto

Mi estancia en Fes en el Riad Al Ansari fue excepcional. El Riad está situado en la Medina. Cuando llegamos nos estaban esperando en la parada de taxi para llevarnos al Riad. Allí nos recibieron con te y nos explicaron las cuestiones más importantes de la ciudad. El trabajador del local una excelente persona muy simpático y profesional. La dueña del Riad, Brigitte también ella muy simpática y atenta. En relación al Riad este es praticante nuevo. La habitación que teníamos, la suite es cierto que no era barata pero la calidad lo merece. Amplias, limpia, con todo lo necesario. La cama excelente. La red wifi perfecta también. El desayuno muy rico. Y también la cena que probamos en uno de los días. Eso si. Hay que avisar con antelación. En definitiva, una gran elección. Las fotos son tal como es el Riad.
