Fez hotellit lähellä Bab Guissa

Plussat: The riad is really beautiful, we discovered new details of the amazing decoration every day. It is almost a shame to stay in this riad and then spend most of the time out in the city. But what really makes a difference is the super friendly staff. Yasmine and Alex organized everything perfectly, they also have a very good guide for the medina walking tour.

Miinukset: Nothing, we were very happy with our choice. Would definitely visit the riad again.

Plussat: Everything was top notch. Lovely welcome with hot towels, tea and cookies. The room (Amber room) was beautiful, well equipped, super clean and so comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, as was the vegetarian dinner they cooked for us the first night. The riad itself is stunning. A calm oasis in the middle of the busy Fez Medina. It’s in a quiet location but close to a square from which it is usually easy to get a taxi which makes is easy to navigate around the city. The staff of the riad deserves a special shoutout. Everybody is so very friendly. The owners Alex and Yasmine were always happy to give us tips on how to get best from A to B, where to go for dinner an so on. They also organised two tours for us, to Meknes/Volubilis as well as a Fez Medina tour. All in all it was a truly wonderful stay.

Plussat: Every single corner of the beautiful Le Calife has been paid meticulous attention to. It is clear that the owners are passionate about Moroccan culture, design, antiques and overall immaculate decor. I was incredibly impressed not only with the design of the common spaces and the rooms, but every person who worked there was overwhelmingly helpful and kind. Alex and Yasmine are the most gracious owners and hosts and helped me navigate Fes as a solo female traveler. I’d go back in a heartbeat.

Plussat: The location, the charming decor and the exceptionally friendly/helpful staff. The owners are invested in guests having a great stay. Even provide a local phone preprogrammed with their number in case you need help when out. Highly recommend if you are looking for a Riad experience.

Plussat: Beautifully decorated boutique hotel with great attention to detail. Lovely owners and staff who went above and beyond to ensure we had an excellent time in Fes. Fantastic breakfast with a view!

Plussat: Best Riad/Hotel we have ever stayed in. The level of personalization and attention to detail was unparalleled. The grounds and rooms of the Riad are so authentic and luxurious . Thank you Alex and Yasmine for making of Morocco dreams a reality. Look no further, this is the riad for you!

Plussat: The location is only a short walk away from the center of the medina and all of the artisan quarters. The room was very inviting and comfortable. Alex and Yasmine were very helpful in explaining some of the history of Fes and giving us recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants. Overall, the entire staff made sure we had a comfortable, safe, and fun stay in Fes!

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Wonderful owners ..thank you Alex and Yasmine!!. Beautiful bedroom in traditional Moroccan style. Terrace with city views .

Plussat: stunning renovation-mint tea on roof terrace watching sunset over ancient medina-priceless!

Plussat: Excellent excellent excellent!! What more can I say. We loved our stay here. Everything was perfect. The Riad was so peacful and comfortable. The food was lovely. Thank you Yasmine for being so helpful. Sorry we didn`t meet Alex. Hope he got safely back from Paris.

Plussat: Very approachable and helpful proprietors of a beautifully preserved Riad in the medina.

Plussat: We loved the riad! It was like a calm oasis after the chaotic medina. Yasmine and Alex (and Darwin the dog) are unbelievably welcoming, friendly and helpful. They really want to share their love of Fes with you. Our room was lovely- spotless and comfortable. Every detail had been thought about and there were lots of personal touches. They arranged a guide for half a day for us which was great. The riad courtyard is beautiful and we often sat there early evening enjoying complimentary drinks and olives. We ate up on the roof terrace for two nights and the food was delicious - well worth it! Riad Calife was the highlight of our holiday to Morocco. If only we could have stayed longer!

Miinukset: The food was superb, but the portion sizes were a little overwhelming sometimes! I felt bad that I couldn't eat all my food! Other than that, everything was perfect!

Plussat: The Riad was beautiful and very well done. The rooms had everything you need. The owner was very nice and helpful. All staff were great. Breakfast was really good. The terrace had an amazing view.

Miinukset: The internet did not work very well in the hotel. The signal was not strong. The price for the room was high for being in a third world country.

Plussat: The owners were very nice and quite helpful. The staff was also very good. The location, terrace views and food were all excellent. Dinner was a bit pricy, but was really gourmet.

Plussat: Beautiful and recently renovated. Very clean and modern feeling despite its location in the old part of town. Alex and wife were very knowledgeable and hospitable.

Plussat: Owners were nice and very accomodating. Rooms were very clean, and riad was unique. Location was excellent and their remodel of the riad was top notch.

Plussat: The staff is very very kind. The place is really stylish and romantic. You have a marvellous view from the terrace on the ancient Medina. Don't miss it if you are heading to Fes!

Plussat: The riad was nice looking, the staff were helpful and responsive.

Miinukset: The room was not good, the bathroom door did not close. The staff called someone at 10pm and he worked for 20 minutes to get that working. They did not offer to change our room, even after asking. The breakfast was one of the worst that I have eaten in Morocco. I live here, so I know what you get served. For 100Dhm, this is not just bad but really bad!

Plussat: The welcome was amazing and genuine. They offered mint tea as well as the best moroccan pastries I had tasted thus far. The staff was amazing, knowledgeable, patient and pleasant. They realized it was my birthday and they brought my friend and I a WHOLE cake! It was quite a surprise. Also, they organized a tour for my friend and I, the driver was very nice and stopped whenever we asked to take pictures, timely and responsive when we called to return to the Riad. To conclude, my friend and I enjoyed our time very much and it is a beautiful Riad!

Plussat: Staff,very friendly and helpful ,even when you arrived and left in the middle of the night . Relaxing on the roof after a days exploring of the Medina. Following Simons advice and going with the tour company to Volubilis,special thanks to Raschid,we spent most of the day laughing and talking about things,I did not know I knew,priceless. Even saw the King pass by so cool.

Miinukset: My poor haggling skills. Small suitcase. Expanded waistline.

Plussat: The staff at the riad is polite and helpful.

Miinukset: The room has very low ceiling and with extra low beams. I could not even stand straight in the shower because of the low ceiling. The duvet cover has stains and long hairs. The tub also has long hairs from previous guests.

Plussat: The house? The design

Miinukset: No windows in our room

Plussat: Staff in the Riad. They are so helpful.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: The Riad is in superb conditions, very clean and the staff was great.

Miinukset: Only one host attending the guests. I asked in the hotel if I could get a guide, they contacted an agency and sent a fake guide, careful!

Plussat: The staffs are excellent! They are worth to be given award for being the best accomodating and hospitable personnel.We highly appreciate the effort of Simon for facilitating our request without hesitation and always with a smile. He is the number one and with 10/10 score.Both staff deserves to be kept and valued.

Plussat: Simon and Mohammed were fantastic, thank you to them for making it a great stay. Excellent Riad in a great location.

Plussat: Building Design

Miinukset: Location in that side of The Medina and the main fountain of the riad it wasn’t working

Plussat: Beautiful riad. Room was stunning, courtyard lovely. Roof terrace was amazing. Beds and linen super comfy. Wish we’d had more time here to use all the facilities. Staff very helpful. Would definitely come again.

Miinukset: For a good riad the choice of breakfast was small. Other riads have had yogurt, cheese, choice of juice.

Plussat: WOW! What an awesome hotel. We've stayed in quite a few places but this is certainly up there with our favourites! This riad is set down a tiny lane in the Fez medina (finding it is part of the fun). It's in a stunning old palace with original latticework and gorgeous tiled interiors. You'll be welcomed with mint tea and a comfy seat. The rooms are very large and have lovely decor features and lighting, not to mention massive beds that are super comfy. The rooftop is brill for watching the sunset over Fez. Lovely staff (well done on trying to say good morning in Polish!). And that pool - it's the best place to chill out after a hectic morning navigating the souks.

Miinukset: Internet could be a little faster in the room. Breakfast could have a little more variety. (This is being SUPER picky because this is one of the best hotels we've ever stayed in!)

Plussat: This is a beautiful, lovingly restored historic building with amazing rooftop views. Very good breakfast, and delicious dinner/lunch. The team who run it are very friendly and helpful. Hammam/massage was also very good.

Miinukset: Would have been good to have tea/coffee facilities in the room--not a big deal, but something to be aware of if you like your coffee made in a particular way. Also, would be good not to have the smoking areas in the courtyard near the rooms as smoke gets through the doors/windows.

Plussat: Really authentic Riad, and has a majestic terrace and courtyard. Good odor of aroma. Well trained and sophisticated staffs.

Miinukset: I lived in Morocco in the past but this Riad is very hard to find. Staffs doesn’t know well about the historic site.

Plussat: Location is good, right in the Medina (but you need to be prepared for Fes Medina). Very nice Dar in terms of style

Miinukset: Food is a problem... I believe if they improve the food, they can earn more money.

Plussat: We were very pleased with this stay as the staff was so kind and attentive and the facilities exceeded our expectations in both beauty and luxury. I highly recommend this stay to anyone traveling in Fez.

Miinukset: It is a bit difficult to find as it is deeper in the Medina where google maps is much more difficult to use. However, the staff was helpful in giving directions.

Plussat: nice and modern setting

Miinukset: hotel is still in construction!

Plussat: Service is excellent, location amazing and the place incredible!

Miinukset: This riad is very silent inside. Lower floor rooms lack of intimacy as dining / breakfast tables are right in front

Plussat: The Riad was so lovely and a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of the medina. Def. recommend it. The terrace is a great place to spend the late afternoon relaxing.

Miinukset: The only thing that would make this place nicer is if it were possible to drink wine, but I understand its not part of the culture. It would have been nice to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset on the terrace.

Plussat: The atmosphere and location are excellent giving a wonderful experience of the fes medina while still giving the amenities westerners are accustomed to. Staff are friendly and helpful

Miinukset: .no.

Plussat: Staff was friendly, always ready to help and committed. They didn't give you the feeling that after long hours of work, any of your requests would be too much.

Miinukset: There should have be some more storage room, that's all.

Plussat: The breakfast and dinner are delicious , the roof top bar offers an excellent view of Fes, we enjoyed the staying very much !

Plussat: Everything was just perfect. The staff, the food, the atmosphere, the facilities and the hospitality.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: One of the best riads in Fes! Walking distance to the souks and the place itself is breathtaking. Thank you for upgrading our room for our anniversary Ridzuan! ♥️ we were welcomed with a room full of rose petals and champagne! You guys are amazing!

Plussat: Beautiful decoration, helpful staffs who are so welcoming and always smile. Room is clean, beautiful and spacious. Good location

Miinukset: Wifi in our room doesn’t work at all and is slow even in the lobby. It’s quite common in Morocco not to have wifi in the room but a 5 star hotel could have improved it? Breakfast is nice but very expensive considering the market rate

Plussat: It’s incredibly beautiful. One of most beautiful hotels I’ve eher stayed in.

Miinukset: Very expensive for a half suite (supposedly a junior suite but I wouldn’t really call it a suite). Again it’s still a beautiful hotel and our room was stunning

Plussat: An absolutely beautiful Riad with a number of private areas to relax in. Rooms beautifully furnished . Close to a gate where one can get taxis. Food excellent.

Miinukset: Nothing I did not like. Loved Riad Fes

Plussat: It is the second time I go to Riad Fes and I have to say that my experience was as amazing as the first time (2 years ago) even better. There is continuous improvement in the service and facilities. Bravo to all the staff especially Huda who was very helpful. Keep it up everybody.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff was great and very helpful. He found a needed power adapter for my friend, remembered to get my change to me of only a few coins. The location is very near the Blue Gate and easy to find.

Miinukset: I didn't like that we weren't in Fez longer to enjoy this stay for another night or two.

Plussat: Designed with love, very cozy, nice rooftop terrace and good breakfast. Perfectly located in the medina.

Miinukset: Bed was a bit hard. And earplugs are recommended when you sleep at the ground floor.

Plussat: Very authentic food and decor, provided breakfast early for us as we needed to leave early for a tour, clean and well kept. Staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home.

Plussat: The Riad was very well located close to the Blue Gate, so easy access. Big rooms. Good breakfst!

Miinukset: The bedding could be better...

Plussat: The location was great! Very close to the blue gate and feel safe to stay. We enjoyed breakfast at the terrace!

Miinukset: We didn’t like the decoration because it was a little bit mixed style, but some people might like this.

Plussat: 10 out of 10 and an absolute recommendation to stay when visiting Fez. The staff is very friendly and helped us with various things ranging from day trip recommendation to Laundry service and all small questions one has in a new city. The breakfast - which has been delicious and more than we could eat- is served on the rooftop Terrance which has a nice view on the Médina and the Riad itself is also beautiful. Overall an amazing experience!!

Miinukset: Nil

Plussat: The hotel is right in the middle of Médina and closer to the blue gate. Easy to get to taxis and about 10 mins away from the train station. But u are at the right place of the attractions. The staff is friendly. There was a overbooking situation and the manager arranged us another place for our first day stay and got us shifted to Dar Tahri on the next day making all the arrangements to shift our bags. Aziz the person who looks after the property was very good to us and speaks good English. Breakfast was ok and we got egg to the plates. Hot water was working properly and had no issues

Miinukset: The hotel is not as to what you can see in the images. It’s not that attractive as to these photos. And I feel bit too pricy and you can get better hotels for the same rate. The rooms are not very much clean. The rugs are unclean and old. The beds are not comfortable but very hard.

Plussat: The Riad itself was lovely and located in a convenient location. However, the customer service was beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. The young manager Simo paid attention to our every need. He made our stay the highlight of Fes.

Plussat: Everything. Forhad was an amazing host, greeting us from the main Street and taking us to the Riad at 1am. He even organised a tour for us at that time of night for the next morning and made us some tea! Would highly recommend this place and I would definitely come back.

Miinukset: The bathroom can smell a bit damp sometimes

Plussat: Riad Sunrise was our first stop in Morocco, Fez. Firstly, it was difficult to find, but then you understood that it had convenient and plain location near main square, police station, market, banks, cafes and so on. I want to thank Simo so much! He is such good guy, helpful, easy-speaking and caring about his guests. The Riad is really beautiful one, with neat style and interesting details. The roof terrasse and its view are perfect. Simo also told us some history of Fez, showing some places, when we were at the terrasse (I told, brilliant guy!). There was a little bit cold at night, but it wat December, so that is not a problem. Our breakfast wasn't various but it was very delicious. Recommended.

Miinukset: A little bit dirty bathroom

Plussat: Very central location and walking distance. seemo our host was amazing thank you very much for such an amazing stay and gave such great advice and assistance when traveling! View from terrace was breathtaking

Miinukset: Parking a bit distant from the hotel

Miinukset: Breakfast wasn't good.

Plussat: Simo was really nice and caring. He gave us directions to go around the city and offered and amazing tea all the time. The best was really comfy and the room quite big. Breakfast was really tasty.

Miinukset: The bathroom was a little bit dirty. The Riad is a bit far from the main touristic part.

Plussat: Simo, the young man that runs the riad, is the best host ever. Polite, kind, helpful, we loved him! He took us to the restaurants, to the hammam, he offered us mint tea. Could not thank him enough. Τhe riad is in a perfect location, very close to the old town (medina). The inner courtyard where you can sit and have breakfast is impressive. Very nicely decorated with traditional Moroccan architecture. We had the upper room with internal windows which I think is the best room of the riad. Spacious, beautifully decorated too, just lovely!

Miinukset: Riads are old houses and they would definitly use a renovation. Also if you think it is not clean enought just tell Simo. He will ask the lady to clean again or change sheets if you are not satisfied. If there are other guests it can be a bit noisy but that is how riads are made. An inner courtyard and rooms around. It is difficult to make sound insulation so I think it is a problem that you will have everywhere.

Plussat: The rooms were spacious and clean. The host was incredible and very hospitable, always offering amazing tea. He also said it was possible for us to stay if we had issues leaving Morocco because of the closing borders! It is centrally located and very close to the Medina. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: The Riad was a located in a dark alleyway which can be hard to find if it's your first time there.

Plussat: A beautiful riad with the best rooftop terrace for tranquil sunsets. Just moments from the medina, a great location only 1min hidden from the main road for easy taxis around Fes. A huge thank you to the lovely hosts Simo and Hamza who were so friendly and made the stay an absolute pleasure, as if it were their home. Great value for money.

Plussat: Great staff, great location, wonderful riad. Very nice breakfast. Very helpful and accomodating.

Miinukset: There was a smell which may be attributed to the tanneries in the area, but it was pervasive.

Plussat: The building was amazing and the room was so great. WiFi worked all the time and it was close to the gate so you did not get too lost. Service was amazing

Miinukset: Well if I have to add something. I had a lot of camera equipment that was heavy with many stairs. But with that said the staff helped me with my bags too. So it was not as bad with their help

Plussat: The staff members showed amazing hospitality. They made us feel so much welcome. The location of the riad is great and it has a wonderful view on the rooftop. Strongly recommended.

Miinukset: The bathroom was cold.

Plussat: The staff are very friendly and English is spoken. We had a big room and a giant bed. Roofterrace is quite nice.

Miinukset: Stayed 3 nights and it was okay, but a lot of small uncomforts: noises from the hotel in the room (loud doorbell, reception very close - all windows open to inner part of riad with bad acoustics). Staff did full volume mid night check in. Very little water pressure, occasionally no warm water, WiFi wasn't always working. Breakfast was very basic. The building is a quite nice old riad, but the room floors and walls are not leveled (read: almost diagonal) and so are the beds.

Plussat: The top terrace has a very nice view, the location is good because it's inside the medina but is easily accessible from place Rcif

Miinukset: Mattress very hard, very cold room. There is a air conditioning unit that can be used as heater. The breakfast and meals they propose are expensive.

Plussat: Stayed 5 nights in what is likely their nicest room, top floor with windows and private bath. It was still awful.

Miinukset: Complete scam. Do not stay here. Sleeping here was like sleeping in a snake pit. Staff tries to con you out of money at every turn. When we left, we tried to pay the city tax and laundry etc with a credit card, about 75 euro total--they refused to take it screamed at us, then threatened to call the police on us. We eventually were able to pay them in cash, just like they wanted, and then they still sent us a bill for 250 euro. This was only the last and worst thing that happened. They also lied to us and said there was no bus to Ifrane and the only way to go was by booking a tour with them. Turns out, there are buses, and we wound up taking a grand taxi very easily. They also recommended we book an official guide for the city--though them of course, at a high price-- which was supposed to be 3-4 hours long and provide a history of the area. We booked the tour--but it only lasted 2 hours, and consisted entirely of being walked in circles through a very small portion of the Medina, and being taken to stores where we were expected to buy things we did not want. When we told them that the tour was short and all shopping, they said well it sounds like he took you through the medina and did all he was supposed to do. Well, that's not how they sold it initially. The bathroom also smells HORRIBLE--they told us that we should close the shower drain because people have complained before. We closed the drain. Still smelled disgusting, and leached all through our room (we even opened the windows, to no avail). The mattresses are very hard and uncomfortable--feels like you are sleeping only on a box spring. The internet was in and out--at one point, staff noticed that I was trying to make a call but that the call kept dropping. She told me that it was actually my fault because their internet doesn't work with Mac computers. Complete nonsense. Basically, this Riad treats you like a little idiot and tries to suck money out of you at every turn.

Plussat: Great location in the Médina and easy to find. Very welcoming hosts. The room was clean and spacious.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike

Miinukset: Personel not nice, we booked room with the breakfast, but we didn't get breakfast - this was big problem- staff even started shouting at us. We lost a lot of time because of that. Bathroom is old and was dirty, we didn't have hot water. We were really mad and disapointed. I do NOT reccomend this Riad.
