Fez hotellit lähellä Fes el Bali

Plussat: Hosts and staff very helpful

Plussat: Le Calife is exceptional in all regards. Exquisite architecture and design makes the establishment so beautiful it belongs in a magazine. The room was large with gorgeous stained glass windows and very comfortable. The owners Alexandre and Yasmin are genuine and eager to ensure your stay in Fez is perfect; they assisted us whenever we needed anything and we wish we could have brought them along on the rest of our Morocco trip! Le Calife is located about 5 minutes in the Medina, which means the old town and its charm are just outside the door; but you're also a short walk to the taxi square (no cars in the Medina) to explore other parts of town. The rooftop terrace has gorgeous views of the Medina and surrounding hills. The rooftop restaurant makes the most delicious breakfasts! There are plenty of Riads in Fez, stop trying to decide where to book, and just stay here - you will NOT be disappointed.

Miinukset: everything was perfect here!

Plussat: We have arrived after a long trip from chefchaoun. Mohammed the bellboy guided us and carried our luggage all the way to the Riyad. We entered to an amazing place where Yasmin and Mariam welcomed us warmly and explained all the details that we need for our trip in Fes Our room Amber room and it was amazing ( good for two) and on the ground floor opposite to an amazing small garden and terrace. The room and amenities should be categorized as 5 stars.Despite the noisy old city, we were totally isolated in a quiet and serene place. The next morning we met Alex who insisted that someone should escort us to our driver as he wanted to ensure we don’t go lost or no one fools us. He even offered us a cell phone to keep in touch. Don’t miss this place!

Miinukset: Nothing

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 about Riad Le Calife was outstanding. Our hosts, Alex and Jasmine, did an outstanding job of arranging for transfers and a tour of the medina. This Riad provided a wonderful, peaceful place of refuge from the hustle and bustle of the Fez medina. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Miinukset: No changes - this place was excellent!

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: Closes to Medina walking distance.

Plussat: Everything was excellent and the staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The airline lost my luggage on my trip in, and my host even offered to loan me clothes from his own wardrobe for the meantime! I really enjoyed my time there, and it's truly a great place to stay.

Plussat: Very helpful staff and fabulous food

Plussat: Location.

Plussat: The owner went above and beyond helping us book transportation to our next location. His helpfulness combined with the staff’s friendliness and immaculate room made this a wonderful stay. The breakfast every morning was superb. Location could not be beat - just steps from the Medina.

Plussat: The Riad has a lot of character, staff are very friendly and helpful. Easy place to stay

Plussat: I love Riad Ahlam. This was my second stay. They made me feel like family. Superb welcome. Excellent staff. Perfect location. Best dinner in Marocco. Breakfast very delicious. Kacem and all staff very lovely. See you soon Riad Ahlam!!!

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Amazing riad, gorgeous and comfortable room, warm hearted host and only several mins walk to blue gate

Plussat: Friendly staff Spacious room Breakfast is really nice!!! Terrace with sunshine and nice view

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: 1. staff- Absolutely attentive, smilely face , super kind, always approached me first and greet/ asked how i am..etc. very helpful, organized, good manner. 2. room- very spacious for single traveller. Clean , clean , clean. comfortable bed, good lights, all amenities you need in bathroom. Changes towels, even toilet paper every day( i havent even finished) 3. food- superb breakfast. just beyond your expectation. delicious and generous. beautifully plated. felt like i was in good restaurant. 4. location-close to tourist attractions. e.g 17mins walk to Tannery, city panoramic view point right behind the Riad Ahlam( if you want, you can walk as well), only a few second from carpark( in case you need to get dropin and dropoff)

Miinukset: nothing.

Plussat: great location，staff are very helpful and a very good breakfast。

Plussat: Beautiful riad and good location. Great view of the medina from the roof terrace. It’s just inside the medina and near a parking lot which is just outside the medina. It only takes 10 minutes by foot to be in the center of the medina.

Plussat: The rooms are spacious but the air conditioning not functioning well .

Miinukset: Well functioning AC

Plussat: So friendly and helpful. One night Ahmed picked us up to our reserved restaurant that was so kind and we are thankful for this. In good location and very nice traditional place.

Plussat: My husband and I stayed here during our 5-day trip to Fez and loved it, very calm and relaxing place and the staff is so amazing. They were some of the friendliest people we met during our 2-month journey in Morocco. Breakfast is lovely, and the location makes it very easy to reach the Blue Gate and other attractions via taxi (no getting lost finding your way through the medina, unless of course you want to ;)). Wifi was good for us digital nomads, our room was cleaned regularly, and I can't stress enough how awesome the staff were - we felt like they were family by the time we left. Thank you so much Dar Anebar, we will never forget you!!! Best wishes from Carly & Luke

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: The staff are friendly and helpful. The environment is clean and beautiful. I can feel the way of arabian family lives in this house. The breakfast is great, a very satisfied breakfast.

Miinukset: We had 2 people, if our room can have 2 chair for each of us, it would be better.

Plussat: This Riad (hotel) is located close to the edge but within the old city (Medina) – it requires assistance to access, as taxis and other wheeled vehicles have no direct access. The Riad will arrange to meet your taxi at the closest main gate. It features a beautiful atrium, three stories in height, and onto which all the rooms have a direct outlook. There is also a roof terrace with recreation area and good views of the city. While there is no elevator, the obliging staff are only too willing to carry your suitcases to your room. A traditional breakfast is included in the tariff, and a limited-menu dinner can also be provided at an additional charge if desired. The proprietor, Ahmed, is friendly and obliging. For example, he arranged to purchase a train ticket for me so that I did not need to make a special trip to the train station (online ticket purchases seem to be restricted to those with a Moroccan credit card). The free wi-fi worked well, and the rooms were elegant and charming, with an old-world, Arabic ambience. Ahmed also arranged for an English-speaking Guide for me, as it would be impossible to negotiate the narrow streets, lanes and alleyways of the Medina without a Guide. Fortunately, the Medina in Fez does not permit wheeled vehicles of any kind (except small trolleys), which is a great advantage over the equivalent precinct in Marrakech, where you take your life into your hands as the sometimes fast-moving scooters etc. negotiate their way around obstacles such as pedestrians! Fez uses donkeys and mules to transport heavier loads through the streets and laneways of the Medina (beware the manure).

Miinukset: I did find, however, that the lighting level in my room was a bit too low for functional requirements. My only criticism was that my Guide appeared to be nothing more than a tout for various tourist venues and retail establishments. At every stop, I was passed over to a merchant who started doing a sales pitch. I told the Guide I wasn't really interested in buying tourist souvenirs, but he took no notice (he's probably on a commission).

Plussat: Amazing friendly staff. Beautiful riad. Call the staff to help you with your bags and find the location!

Plussat: Lovely Riad. Staff friendly. Nice breakfast. Good place to explore the medina from. Easy taxi ride to blue gate

Miinukset: Twin room in annex was small. Shower small. No chairs. Comfortable beds though

Plussat: This Riad is absolutely stunning, pure luxury right in the heart of the medina, the building blew me away, stunning interiors, beautiful rooftop view right over the whole medina, incredible to watch the sun rise and set from here, and most of all the staff were amazing.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Love the common areas. The riad is beautiful! Don’t like that the rooms have no Moroccan flare. We missed that a little bit. The dinner menu in the hotel could be a bit more varied. Seems a little limited.

Plussat: the riad is really beautiful, the bed is comfortable, the staffs are great especially the ones who send breakfast to our room.

Plussat: The staff were great, we had the pleasure of having a cooking class with the chef which was an amazing experience and would highly recommend to everyone. The rooftop was also exceptional.

Plussat: Roof terrace was lovely and the staff were very happy. Staff make a good cocktail.

Miinukset: You have to make sure you have a room with a balcony or terrace if that is what you have requested. Our suite didn't have a balcony or terrace as expected. The food wasn't Relais Chateau standard.

Plussat: The staff were very cheerful and attentive. The room was beautiful, stayed in an Ambassador which was very very spacious then a standard for a night.Armchair in that room very uncomfortable. The roof top terrace had a cool breeze and great view of old city. Comfortable seating also service from 1pm very good. Had tasty lunch and drinks. Bear in mind lots and lots of steps to over come if you have anything wrong with your knees like my wife

Miinukset: Restaurant chairs not very inviting , ok for breakfast but not for a relaxing meal. Food certainly didn't have the wow factor you would expect from a Relais Chateau Hotel. Musician was very good for your first night but a little same same the next.

Plussat: The reception staff so kind , the location and the view

Miinukset: Not that clean not worth the money value The food is not that good The bathroom design is not practical The manger is rude

Plussat: If you are looking for a blend of traditional Moroccan architecture with modern luxury, look no further. Extremely friendly staff, spotless clean accommodations, and 5 star dining. The sheets and towels were so clean, bed extremely comfortable, gorgeous style in the rooms, and beautiful views of the city. Located just a couple of miles from the Medina (old city), the Sahrai does not disappoint and gives you a getaway to rest from the chaotic but charming old city. My husband and I highly recommend this place and we will send everyone to this lovey hotel.

Plussat: Nice modern designs. Seems like a fairly recent building. Nice facilities. Generally a comfortable stay.

Miinukset: This hotel missed a lot of details. We stayed on the first floor and the hallway was thinly carpeted. That means we heard the carts rolling around outside early in the mornings and late in the evenings. There were no mugs in the rooms so when I made tea I had to put it in a glass cup (hot). There was a glass wall dividing the shower room and bed area and they covered it with a sheer curtain. Why sheer? Why not make it opaque so we can have privacy when showering? Also, when we checked out we asked for a taxi only to find out they didn't have the number to the taxi company. Our choices were a hotel shuttle which was 2x the price of a taxi or to be taken to the train station and to take a taxi from there. What hotel doesn't have the taxi company number??

Miinukset: There is much ants in the room and certainly in the bathroom. Wood floor was broken in the terrace which caused my wife to hurt her feet. Tea and harrira was so cold in the breakfast , when I asked for new one I never got it.

Plussat: The hotel overlooks the city. Nice rooms w amenities most of the staff were very friendly and the hotel offers shuttle services to the city.

Miinukset: The person In charge had an attitude. The bathroom was all glass which is not convenient for showers. We tried the restaurant for dinner and breakfast and it was average.

Plussat: Modern, clean, spacious, one receptionist (blonde girl, didn’t get her name) was very helpful and really tried her best to help us especially with the transportation requests

Miinukset: Breakfast was included and three different staff kept saying it wasn’t until they checked all three times and realised it was!

Plussat: The stuff was super nice! We wanted to have some extra food to the breakfast so they fixed that. The location was great, just few meters from the souks.

Miinukset: There was no window in our room which was quite uncomfortable. The room was ok but we would expect more fresh bed sheets. The bathroom was really small and it stinked permanently. As we did not have any window there was difficult to get some fresh air into the room.

Plussat: It was a nice and quiet stay at the heart of the Medina. Very friendly staff that helps you with things you need to sort out.

Miinukset: Bit hard to find, but that's all part of the adventure.

Plussat: Everything was great. Simo is very kind and friendly. He came to pick up us at the taxi stop and helped us with the suitcases, even if it was midnight, he welcomed us with a hot and delicious mint tea (and it was not the only one), he suggested an amazing restaurant for the dinner...so he was a great host!

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

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: Very typically traditional! Breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The noise in the morning was loud from both outside and inside the riad. The host could of been more accommodating.

Plussat: Very friendly staff that will help you with everything you need. Riad is beautiful and the roof terrace has a splendid view. Good location and good breakfast!

Miinukset: No windows in the room so it was hard to ventilate. Showerhead did not function well. Also the bed/pillows were a bit old and not the most comfortable.

Plussat: Gret location, right at the entry to Medina. Cozy and traditional Morrocan style. The best thing was Simu, the gut that works there. He was really helpful.

Plussat: Our experience over there began meeting Simo, THE MOST helpful host we have met in Morocco! Room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was good (Moroccan standard). Location is on Place Rcif, few minutes drive from the blue gate but with great access to the market.

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: I enjoyed the terrace and the view over the medina.

Plussat: Staying in a typical Moroccan building had a special charm. Compliments to the staff for the friendliness and good tips for exploring the surroundings. Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the entire old medina was a wonderful start of the day.

Plussat: I enjoyed my stay in this riad. I really liked the staff, especially the lady who helped me when I forgot my belongings! A big shout out to her! The view was wonderful and peaceful.

Miinukset: The beds were too hard to be comfortable for us.

Plussat: Kareem who works on the reception is so warmful and without his helpness I was very hard time I could spent becuz I was sick Many stress but he helped me out..

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.
