Hotel berhampiran Cesar SPA, Fez

I stayed there for 2 days. My room was ready and clean. The bed was comfy. Breakfast is good buffet with many items. I liked it. They have a big garden with a nice pool. I took a fresh local bear in this garden and a good chicken tajine with vegetables and olives.

The Riad itself is truly lovely & the public areas & rooms are just as pictured & very impressive in decoration. The owner obviously has a good eye for details which is evident throughout the property which is a visual masterpiece overall. Good housekeeping is found in the lobby/courtyard & rooms but was shockingly ignored on the rooftop terrace which was not just rundown but filthy. Old, rundown, rust-covered, dirty seating cushions laying on the floor. Furniture that had not been cleaned in months perhaps & trash laying on the floor. When we expressed our shock to the manager-on-duty who was unfailingly polite & courteous & eager to help, he claimed there had been rain 2 days prior which was the reason for the unsightly terrace condition, but what we experienced was weeks-to-months of inattention to housekeeping & detail. The furniture cushions did not become as dirty as we saw in only 2 days & the furniture condition spoke volumes about a lengthy lack of attention, as did the poor terrace housekeeping. Was also totally unimpressed by the quality of the bed linens but want to specifically compliment the owner on high-quality plumbing fixtures, which WORK without experiencing any unpleasant problems. Also one of the best breakfast offerings we experienced in 9 days in Morocco, with top quality service to match. Be forewarned that if you plan to eat dinner at Al Bartal you MUST make a reservation in advance. Even though there were only 4 occupied rooms during our stay & we asked at 4:00PM to make a dinner reservation for 7:30 that evening, we were told it was not possible. Yet we only saw 2 tables of 2 persons each actually eating during the evening. Strange. We strolled 5 minutes around the corner to the spectacularly beautiful Palais Faraj for dinner, which is a MUST visit when in Fes. Overall, we enjoyed Riad Al Batal which is definitely a lovely, beautifully decorated choice in Fes, but ”details” make a huge difference. Convenient location only 1/2 bock from 1 of the old Medina's entrance gates.

I had an outstanding experience at Riad Sabah. Miriam greeted me right away at the door and I was served tea in a beautifully tiled area adjacent to the courtyard pool while she got me checked in. After the stress of traveling, this was so much appreciated! I was shown my room (a solitaire), which was beautifully decorated and air conditioned. I asked if I could book an appointment in the hammam, which she set up for 4:00. I did a 30 minute scrub and a 30 minute massage for $35. The person at the hammam was highly attentive. Miriam also arranged for a walking tour of Fez ($35) for 10:00 the next morning. My tour guide took me all over city, including to see the Jewish quarter where I got to see inside the ancient synagogue (25 dirhams for the ticket), and even was showed an ancient torah. I also got a tour of a ceramic/tile artisan workshop. In the old medina I got to visit the tannery and see the inside of a shop in a dar with enormous beautiful rugs. Miriam arranged for my taxi to the airport and she even allowed for my bill to be split into part cash and part credit card so that I didn't have to change any money back into dollars. I went swimming in the pool twice (the colored lights at night are nothing short of magic!) and enjoyed breakfast poolside--the best breakfast I have had in Morocco. The Riad is located on a deadend street which means very peaceful sleeping, but it's only a five minute walk from several different entrances to the Medina. I could not recommend this experience more highly. Booking directly through the website or by calling will save you more than 50% as opposed to going through a booking website such as ***********.

Our stay at Riad Adarissa exceeded our expectations in every way. We selected it based on the reviews and its location in the Medina. The property itself is authentic old world Morroco and the hospitality was out of this world. They arranged a driver to meet us at the airport who took us to the walls of the Medina. Haddou, our host at the Riad, met us there and helped us navigate the winding streets to the property where we met Jean Claude the owner. Our guest room was very unique, nothing like the many chain hotels we stay in. But that’s exactly what we were looking for…an authentic Morrocan experience. What really made this stay exceptional was the service. We felt like guests in Jean Claude’s home and enjoyed many conversations with him over dinner. He couldn’t have been more hospitable. Haddou is an absolute gem and made our stay one we will remember forever. There was nothing he wouldn’t do to make our stay more enjoyable. His wife, Hanane, a trained chef, prepared our dinner all four nights of our stay. The food was so delicious and the hospitality so delightful we decided to enjoy all our dinners at the Riad. Our stay ended with Haddou leading us out of the Medina and making sure we were in a taxi headed to the train station. I find in my travel experiences that it’s the people that make a stay memorable and in this case unforgettable.

We stayed 4 nights at Riad Drissia and were delighted by its welcoming and warm atmosphere. Khalid was a great host, always keen to help (is ordering a taxi or giving us pointers on activities around). We started every morning on the right foot with a copious, varied home cooked breakfast. The location was ideal as it is a 5 minute walk away from the Blue door, in a calm side street near the main bustling avenue. We felt safe in this area, even returning late at night. Plenty of food and shopping options around. The room was clean, fully equipped with TV, AC and WiFi. Slight sour note, the lay out of the road is such that sound proofing is poor. Shower temperature varies as does the water pressure. We would happily recommend this riad

Ha sido todo un acierto alojarnos aquí. Ahmed nos ha ayudado desde el momento en que hicimos la reserva. Con recomendaciones, traslados desde el aeropuerto, durante nuestra estancia... La habitación muy limpia y cómoda. El desayuno muy abundante, maravilloso para aguantar todo el día andando por la Medina. Y la terraza una maravilla para relaj**** a última hora del día. Sin duda repetiré cuando vuelva a Fez!!

I have been with my wife and my daughter at Riad Jamai for 4 days, the treatment we had from the entire team, Mohammed, Khadija, Meryen, Ayoub, was fantastic, they helped us with everything, they facilitated our trip and our stay in Fez. They are so close that they are part of your family, totally recommended. We are sure that our next trip to Fez we will repeat Riad Jamai, thank you for making us feel at home. We will come back!!! Sure
