The owner was incredibly accommodating—she arranged for someone to pick up our luggage and guide us to the riad. She also provided all the information we needed to explore Fes and the surrounding area. We truly appreciate her kindness and hospitality!

The hosts were extremely kind and helpful. The meals were excellent!

Riad Dar Arsama was a wonderful stay because of the gracious host Violeta and her amazing cooks, who made the most amazing meals for us--the best in all of Morocco!

WiFi was a bit intermittent but that is a very minor concern

Beautiful restored old Road, gorgeous decorations combining traditional craft with artistic flourishes. Violeta is a wonderful host, warm, welcoming and will do everything to make your stay in Fez fabulous. Food was authentic and delicious too!

Violeta and her husband have done an amazing job of renovating the building. Needs of some repairs in the house. Very central. The breakfast was very nice and delicious. We had dinner also and it was very delicious but a little bit expensive. Thank you!

We had a lovely stay. Violeta and her team were wonderful & nothing is too much trouble for them. Great location in the medina just off the main street. Highly recommended!

A small riad very near the main Blue Portal of Fes. A bit hard to find at first, but Google maps and local youngsters will get you there. Co-owner Violeta and her husband have done an amazing job of renovating and her art work lines the walls. Excellent breakfast. There are more luxurious riads in Fes, but this is great value for money.

No negatives

The decor of riad is superb, a real tribute to Violeta and her husband. It is just one minute from the main medina thoroughfare and 5 minutes from the Blue gate and 24/7 car parking. The food is outstanding.

It was a bit smaller than what I expected, but the staff made sure to make more space for us.

The place made you feel like a king, the staff were super accommodating and did everything to make us feel at home, and the breakfast was great.

Nothing - everything is perfect

Situated in the middle of an UNESCO world heritage site providing a unique opportunity to do the tours within the ancient city. Repurposed building to a beautiful riad encapsulating a Moroccan experience with modern twist and a fabulous caretaker which cooks the best Moroccan food imaginable.

Nothing.

Excellent service, spacious home, great breakfasts and located well right within the Medina. Kids loved the loft in their bedroom and it was like their secret clubhouse. 😁

My wife would have appreciated more light in the bathroom. I hear it’s helpful when putting on makeup:)

The property was very close to the main streets of the souk. Literally less than a minute walk, but very quiet. Everyone there was super helpful. The owners Violeta and Adil were extremely accommodating, helpful, friendly and always available. We drove to Fes, and they had a porter take us and our bags from our parked car to their Riad. That was really helpful! They also recommended a guide for us. This was our best experience of the trip. He was very affordable ($55 USD for our entire family) and spent much longer than the specified time with us and even helped us barter for lower prices on the major items we purchased. The Riad was very comfortable and their cook, Ilham, cooked us 2 spectacular dinners. Breakfast included the usual tea, bread and preserves, but also eggs, which we really enjoyed.

Really great location in the old Medina in Fes in a restored historic home. Breakfast was very nice and dinner was good as well! Violeta was friendly and interesting to talk to. She even packed us snacks because we had to leave early and could t stay for breakfast. Very hospitable. She also arranged for a tour guide of the Medina. Her name was Fatima and she was fabulous. The best guided tour we had in Morocco! Ask for her.

The bathroom and shower were hard to negotiate. Two narrow steps up to the toilet and a narrow step outside the shower shower.

Definitely in the Medina. Breakfast and dinner available. Safe and quiet. Seriously adventurous.

Mattress could be better

Excellent location, great staff, left luggage when we went to chefchouan and staff was very accommodating

Stayed in February 2024

Nothing to complain about.

Specifically, we enjoyed the facility itself and the atmosphere created by the hosts. They were lovely and incredibly hospitable! The breakfast and dinner prepared by the Riad were fantastic and everything felt like you were part of the family. The information and reservations made by Dar Asama were excellent, particularly the tour guide (private guide Mohammad). The room was also very nice, with plenty of charging stations, comfortable beds, and great amenities (particularly the light fixtures). The hosts we interacted with, Violeta and Adil, were incredibly nice, helpful, friendly, and resourceful. We appreciated their ability to make our stay memorable!

The beauty of the lovingly restored Riad

Stayed in December 2023

Being a traditional house, the stairway was steep and narrow - but this is life in a Moroccan Riad.

Staying in a traditional riad in Fez was a special event. Perfectly located in the middle of the bustling Medina.

Stayed in September 2023

Being a traditional Riad the stairs were quite steep and narrow, but this is unavoidable in such a historical house.

It was a special experience for us to stay in a beautiful traditional Riad. Attention to detail in the renovated apartment was exceptional.

Stayed in September 2023

The lack of door in the bathroom is a bit weird. There's a curtain which for sure makes this a very minor thing compared to what you get

The riad is really really beautiful. And the breakfast was amazing! The owner and the staff were here to help us with every need we had at all times!
