Don’t skip this Riad. I cannot recommend this place enough. The size is overwhelming. At 250 years old, the craftsmanship is awe inspiring. Suzanne was communicative and responsive to our questions. Abdelilah the manager helped us get transportation to and from train station seamlessly. We had private breakfasts each morning and the young woman was a delight. Their breakfasts are no joke so work up an appetite! They provided fresh fruit, bread, water bottles for each room, all included. It’s one block from one of the main arteries in the Medina. Perfect location for shopping and eating. One main highlight was Reda our guide secured by our host. He was simply amazing. Educated, kind, patient. Still young enough to have that energy and passion for his job that made our experience excellent. He took us to great shops and helped us avoid tourists traps. Only warning, the stairs are high. Be careful. Elderly parents traversed it well but just a heads up. 100% I would stay here again

We had an amazing time here. The riad is exceptionally beautiful and so much bigger than the pictures show! The open fire was lovely and very welcome as we stayed in the winter. The responsiveness of Suzanna and Abdelilah was so so quick everytime we had a question, which made our stay perfect as it was our first time in Fez. They helped us organise trips, taxis and find pharmacies etc. Thank you so much!!!
