There are far better hotels out there

This was a pretty terrible hotel. When my wife and I first arrived we were greeted by the staff of Riad Tahra & Spa. They said that the room we booked at Jardin Chrifa was being worked on so we had to go with them to their hotel. I highly recommend this hotel (Riad Tahra). They got us in there, served us mint tea, knocked out the paperwork for staying at the hotel, gave us directions, and offered other services. The room at Riad Tahra was big and had a nice bath. Only drawback is the bed was quite hard. The next day we transferred to Jardin Chrifa. I'll start with the redeeming qualities. Friendly hotel staff, good free breakfast, nice bed, that's really it. The drawbacks: toilet was not bolted to the floor (nearly fell over several times), water was room temperature and never got hot, very noisy (like until 3 in the morning), there was no wifi, (it was present on the first floor only right next to the reception desk). The internet issue became a problem when we were attempting to find other things to do in the area outside of the old town. The hotel did not book us properly thinking that we were departing a day prior to our time arranged through expedia. This wasn't a problem really as they cleared it up pretty quick but would have been if they had been fully booked. Lastly, I booked a taxi through the hotel to take me to the airport on the day I was to depart. It was quite early, 5 am, and I get outside at 4:45, wait for 15 minutes, and still no taxi.

Stay filled with discomforting and uneasy feeling

The owner picked us up from the main road but insisted we paid for the porter services. Wanted to charge MAD 150 for taxi services to train station, but eventually we managed to get it on our own for MAD 70 from a registered transport company. Room was dirty and smelled musky. Bathroom has no shower curtain and smelled bad as well. No receipt was issued after checked out inspite of asking for it. Staff Mohammad was not able to return our change after making payment, leaving us with no choice but to leave the change behind.

A pleasant stay

My small family enjoyed our stay at Riad chrifa. It was quiet anf close to many old medina attractions. Mohammed was really helpful and a nice guy. Also, we needed to prepare food for our one-year son and the kitchen was available to us at any time. I highly recommend staying at this Riad.

Beautiful Riad

I am a solo female traveler and loved this Riad. The taxi ride from the train station to the hotel was fairly straight forward. The hotel is located just a few blocks from a main intersection and only a few more blocks from the Blue Gate into the Medina. A bit of noise from the school kids outside their school a block away could be heard from the room. The receptionists were nice and helped me set up a private Medina tour and let me lounge in the common room between check-out and my overnight bus.

Room smelled of mold

Got to the hotel late (around 11pm) and was greeted by a friendly fellow who did not speak English very well. Was guided up a dark staircase to our room on the third floor. Room smelled like mold probably due to poor ventilation in the washroom. Washroom did not have a shower curtain, thus things got wet. Spoke to a lady the next morning regarding the smell of mold. She wasn't very friendly but managed to mask the smell by spraying some air freshener/perfume. Would not recommend this riad to travellers.

great location

great location however don't count on the staff for any meaningful help. asked the front desk man where a major landmark was (Batha Palace) and he had no idea.it turned out to be 3 blocks away??? the other lady that works the front desk promised twice to provide a railway timetable however it never showed up, eventually after asking a third time the other front desk person provided the schedule. better late than never!! i room a bit noisy in the morning but that was understandable as there was a school almost next door. the room is very basic, no tv however i would recommend this Riad as the location being very close to the medina is very good.,

Lovely Riad

When we arrived we were greated with cakes (which is always a good start) Our room was upgraded, though this may have been as it was out of season. The room was large and nicely decorated. The breakfasts were freshly cooked and excellent quality. Well recommended. The Riad booked us a guide for the day as we were only in Fes for two nights. I thought he was excellent and un biased towards the places he showed us. They even sorted out our train times for our next stopover.

Riad Jardin Chrifa Fes - great service

The staff was incredibly accommodating. We arrived late, after everything was closed, and they had some friends reopen their restaurant just for us. The bed was a bit hard, but the room was clean. The beakfast service was pretty good. The location is not bad, about a five minute walk from Bab Boujeloud and the souqs. I'd recommend it for a clean, comfortable budget stay.

Вы идиоты что ли? Мое бронирование до администрации отеля не дошло как и деньги за проживание. Я им свалился как снег на голову. К счастью, они договорились о моем размещении в соседнем триаде такой же категории, но менее элегантном. А теперь мне присылают анкету , чтобы я оценил проживание в гостинице, в которой я видел только входную дверь! Издеваетесь?!
