    The biggest highlight was obviously the staff We had Nadir and Omar working the front desk and would do anything for you and then Nazra their cook who went out of the way to provide us with a superb meal after we arrived late after a full day tour -thank you all. As , you are staying in a property that is very traditional and beautiful it is very different to a normal standard hotel so be prepared to experience a differencece, it will be worth it.

    Really great location in Fes, just off the Main Street in the Medina. Staff were very welcoming with helping us understand Fes and where to go. As we had to check out early they made up a take away breakfast for us which was really appreciated!

    Nothing, it was really a 100% experience.

    It was really a home away from home, we stopped by many cities in Morocco and Riad Farah was the best place we stayed in. The rooms were clean and cozy, the breakfast was nutritious. Nadir and the team at the riad were really friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We want to come back again if there is a chance.

    Everything was wonderful. The location is perfect for exploring the Medina, the staff are really friendly, the rooms are comfy and the central courtyard beautiful, and the view from the terrace is amazing. Plus the dinner we had there was the best food we ate in Morocco. Do not leave Fes without trying their oranges with cinnamon - trust me!!

    It was quite loud at night if you had the windows open but didn’t bother us with windows shut.

    We were travelling as a group and we were all able to stay at the same place. They were really hospitable. Our 6.1ft son laughed at the low doors for his room at the top of the house. The view over the city and the breakfast all major highlights.

    Nadir and his team are excellent hosts. They arranged pick up at the train station for us and walked us to the Riad. All the staff we dealt with were very friendly and seemed to genuinely care about our experience at their property. The location of this Riad near the Blue Gate is excellent and right in the hustle of the largest Medina in the world. The room was as described on booking.com. The property is quite old but it's well kept and part it's charm. We loved having breakfast on the rooftop terrace which had a great view of the medina and surrounding areas. Hosts prepared a nice takeaway breakfast for us since we had an early start when checking out.

    There is nothing not to like but I should mention that the stairs are very steep. This is part of the charm of the place. If you are not able bodied this is not your place.

    The Riad Farah is in a perfect location, very authentic but most of all Nadir and all his coworkers made our stay amazing. They were very attentive and helpful throughout. Great group of people.

    The Riad was very well located near the Blue Gate, and the staff went out of their way to help with local information and to make our stay really special. The food was absolutely delicious, well prepared and well served. We had our breakfasts and dinners on the terrace overlooking the town, which was superb.`We had to very top room, so we had easy access to the roof-top garden and terrace, it was just perfect.

    Before diving into the more "technical" aspects, we must first highlight the outstanding experience at Riad Farah, thanks to its incredible manager, Mohammed. A person of rare kindness and exceptional courtesy, Mohammed went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Always smiling, helpful, and attentive, he managed to solve every issue with ease and a positive attitude. His excellent command of English allowed him to not only explain the rich history of Fez and Moroccan culture but also offer valuable advice on where to find authentic traditional products. We were even fortunate enough to learn how to prepare Moroccan tea with him! Without a doubt, Mohammed was the best host we encountered during our travels, and by the end of our stay, he had become a true friend. ❤️ Now, turning to the more "technical" aspects: The Riad: While the Riad may not boast the grandiose scale of a "thousand-and-one-night" palace, it is undeniably beautiful and exudes a charming, authentic atmosphere that perfectly complements the surrounding Medina. Its intimate size only added to its allure, making it feel like a hidden gem. Location: The location was absolutely ideal for exploring the Medina. Situated right next to the Madrasa Bou Inania, it was easily accessible from both main streets of the Medina, and very convenient for reaching the Blue Door, which made transportation a breeze. Cleanliness: We were thoroughly impressed by the cleanliness of the Riad. Everything was impeccably tidy, and fresh towels were provided daily. It was clear that attention to detail was a top priority. Breakfast: The breakfast was one of the best we’ve had during our travels—traditional, generous, and satisfying. It offered a wonderful variety and set the tone for a perfect start to each day. Plus, the terrace view, overlooking the Madrasa, was a delightful touch.
