A wonderful riad – a true oasis of calm and peace in the vibrant heart of Fez’s medina. A lovely swimming pool.

The lighting in the room wasn't fantastic. They would benefit from putting a brighter bulb in. Not really an issue just preference.

The place is beautiful, clean and supremely finished. A oasis of calm within the chaos of the bustling medina.

No complaints.

Riad Sabah was a fabulous place to stay. The staff were warm & engaging, It was a completely authentic Riad full of colour and charm befitting a restored 15th century Riad Breakfast was plentiful , the rooms very comfortable , most of which overlooked an inviting pool, and a fast laundry service which we needed. We had an early flight out and they kindly provided a breakfast pack and organised a taxi for us.

Very nice rooms, the lobby was very pretty. The staff was very nice too. The price was good.

Honestly I cannot find any area of potential improvement.

Everything is top class at this ryad, which is amazing because the location around looks very poor and neglected, but as soon as you enter you find a top class, clean, wonderful, classy environment, with a fantastic staff. We were immediately offered tea and biscuits by the pool, which is fantastic. The room was amazing, like the breakfast. The bed was very comfortable, and the area was very quiet. The price was excellent value, much more compared to the other ryad we tried in Fes.

Quite basic breakfasts, every day the same and mostly sweet ones. You can pay with your card only for hotel rooms - food, hamman, taxes should be payed by cash.

Perfect location in medina, close to Ain Zetoun parking -good for those who travel by car. Very professional staff. Beautiful place, clean, calm. Hamman on place.

Beautiful riad, nice rooms and very friendly staff. Location is perfect to explore the medina. I can recommend it!

Only thing that could have been better, was the aircon upstairs in the room, where our kids slept. It was really loud, but you had to have it on during the night because of the high temperature in August. The aircon downstairs near our bed was fine. It was a different model.

Really amazing place to stay in. We stayed there in August, so it was pretty hot. But the patio with the pool was wonderful during the day to sit, relax, play and cool off. The Riad also was perfect to explore the Medina. The staff was very nice and helpful. The breakfast was good. We were really sad, that we only had four days in Fez and in the Riad.

Breakfast can be better. Maybe some type of eggs or savory thing would be great. Also some confusion about the staff sending someone to help with bags at the blue gate and then no one showing up. Pool had a lot of dead flies.

It was clean and location was great. Easy to get to the souks. Room was beautiful and good size. Abram was friendly and helpful.

I had expected the Riad to be much closer to the Blue Gate than it actually was. But the walk through the busy main street with little shops and street sellers did give us a better sense of the contrast between the relative mayhem of the outside world and the peace and tranquility of the interior of the Riad. It was not easy lugging our suitcases through the cobblestone streets and carrying them up to the 3rd floor. But once we have settled in, we were fairly comfortable in our room. The upside was being able to go out and do some shopping even late at night. If you want to dine in, you'll need to inform the desk one day ahead.

The Riad had a pool, which we were not able to use during our stay. It was nice to have a living room between the bedrooms where we could sit together. Service was friendly and attentive. Our driver called ahead so someone came to meet us at the Blue Gate, otherwise, we would not have found it easily inside the Medina. I misplaced an envelope with documents and thought I had left it in our room after check-out. I wrote the Riad and they immediately responded that they had cleaned the room and didn't find it there. Breakfast was good.

The riad was beautiful, but what made it an exceptional hotel was the friendliness of the staff. Meryam was so sweet and went above and beyond all our expectations!! We had a hamman while there and I highly recommend it.

While the breakfast tended to be repetitive, the discovery that eggs could be requested added variety. Dinner, although correct, seemed slightly expensive compared to options in the Medina. Nevertheless, it was an overall great stay.

A delightful Riad in the heart of the Medina, featuring a paradise-like courtyard where breakfast is particularly enjoyable, and well-organized rooms add to the experience.

Bkft was rather limited in scope and did not adjust readily to input from guest. Like all Moroccan setups, it was a rare staff member (see Meriame above) who was prepared to suggesst other than the precanned tour guides, resturaants, etc. Minor details that hurt overrall elevation was a closest door that did not stay closed when shut, and lack of more than 1 trash can for apartment (only one was in bathroom). Also, needed map for finding hotel, Google Map is not up to task in medinas. Could be sent as part confirmation.

Faacilities were well up to what previous reviewers and photos had indicated, excellent overall. All staff members were helpful in addressing routine guests needs. One in particular, Meriame was quite helpful in printing changes in schedules and tickets required by adjustments to one's basic plan. She also actually listened to one's input and would than make recommendations to accomplish that even if requests were not for fanicest food or normal tourist sights/activities.

The staff in particular were exceptional and could not have made our stay better

Nothing. It was perfect for our family of 5.

Everything! It was beautiful. The staff were so kind and attentive. It was a peaceful oasis to come home to after wandering the labyrinth of the Medina, and it was very easy to get to- only a couple of moments away from the Blue Gate.

The mattress was too firm to our taste.

Peaceful heaven in the middle of the Medina. Simple but clean room with ensuite bathroom. The breakfast was great and plentiful. The pool was perfect as the heat was intense.

Stayed in August 2023

It was all good.

A lovely oasis of calm and quiet in the busy, noisy Medina. The staff were excellent, with service and organising a very knowledgeable guide for us, plus a taxi and cart for our luggage. The breakfasts were good value and tasty.

Nothing. All good

Stunning property with gorgeous decor and pool. A real oasis of calm from the medina

Stayed in June 2023

Riad is in maze of alleyways. We arrived in the middle of the night and it was really overwhelming

It had a lovely terrace overlooking Fes. The courtyard with the swimming pool was lovely. The birds were flying around, chirping away

Nothing to not like.

Absolutely amazing Riad, located very close to tala kebira and the blue gate, right where you want to be inside Fes medina but close to the gate. Really good value for price paid, good breakfast, quiet and spacious room with powerful A/C. A special mention goes to the staff, in particular to Lahcen, who went above and beyond to make our stay friendlier. He gave us several tips on the area, even booked a local restaurant on the phone on our behalf. Will definitely stay in Riad Sabah whenever we return to Fes.
