This is an amazing place to stay in Fes, my best accomodation for this trip which included Azores, Madeira and Morocco. I found this booking stupendous for the 5 star treatment I got from the Palais staff. Spotless and gorgeous palatial accomodation. I can't believe I got this for my early booking last October 2020.This is the best time to stay in this hotel especially as tourism is only restarting after the covid pandemic. The hotel will make sure you have all the luxury care even before you realize you badly needed it, like cold water bottle in your room after a hot day's tour. Loved Fes and it has everything to offer a photographer and cultural traveller.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great restaurant, though not cheap. The included breakfast was also incredible. We arrived around 1100 on our check in day, and when they realized we would be checking out too early the next day for breakfast they went ahead and made one for us right then for us to eat as lunch ( we were hungry coming in from an early flight). The best part of the hotel is the location, as you are 50 meters from a road but also right next to the pedestrian only medina. Great view as well. We also really enjoyed the lobby area and the chess board. Look for the turtles on the terrace near the restaurant.

I'd recommend to stay here
The staff at this hotel are really thoughtful, we had to catch a CTM bus the following day at 7am and a member of staff knocked on our door 30 mins before leaving to give us some take away breakfast and fresh orange juice - we couldn't have been more grateful as finding somewhere to eat at that hour would've been a nightmare and we were fairly hungry. The hotel itself is a Riad so it has a very grand feel to it, our room door alone was like a palace's door. Be prepared for stairs though, in any Riad there are loads of stairs.... but the hotel staff help you with taking your luggage up you just tip them some Dirhams. Overall the rooms are clean as we stayed in two different ones and I would recommend this place to stay.

Riad at the entrance of the Medina
After using the GPS and asking locals, we found the Riad. Everybody at the Riad was amazing specially Samira who treated us just like family. The staff helped us with the luggage and parked the car for us as the parking lot was half a kilometer away. Breakfast was included and was a home cooked Moroccan style breakfast. We had dinner once on their terrace with a great view. The food was great. We were just outside the Racf Gate and walked into the Medina from the Riad.

Nice to look at but not to stay in
First impression was good but wait for the stay. The room probably hasn't been cleaned from dust for a year. You smell dust everywhere beds, pillows, furniture, carpet and floor. The bathroom is disgusting. There is difference between old and authentic and ruins and smells. My wife took the decision no one is allowed to take a shower that night and we should wait for the next city. The basin is broken, the toilet smells and make sounds of water dribbling. The shower stop you thinking of stepping into it. The food at the resturant was good quality, the garden where you eat was very nice. The price is probably overpriced but it depends on your budget. For couscous 110 dirham around 9 gbp. The breakfast was free included in the price but it was very very basic I have no intention to go back to meknas but if I do I will not stay there. The staff are nice

Excellent hotel/Riad.
From the moment we arrived we were treated extremely well. Anything we needed was taken care of including one of the hotel workers walking us through the medina to a shop where we could get our cell phone SIM card and he helped us through the transaction. Our room was large and comfortable and well decorated. The view from the terrace was amazing. We opted to have dinner thereafter it was delicious. We highly recommend this Riad if you are going to Fes.

Better choices available
If you just need a place to crash, this will suffice. However, it's nothing like its description. Perhaps it was at one time, but now it's in serious need of some TLC. The room itself was small. It has 3 twin beds, but even with two of us, it was cramped. There was a distinct smell of mildew, and you could hear the street noise as if you were standing outside. The windows offered no barrier. The location is not the best either. It says it's in the medina, but you need a taxi to get anywhere worth seeing. The restaurant and staff were pleasant, however, and the view from the terrace is nice. Food is quite expensive here. While free WiFi is available, service is shoddy. This was our third riad in Morocco and was easily the least desirable of the three. Riad Pachavana in Marrakech and Dar el Kebira in Rabat were both fantastic. I highly recommend both of them, but you should skip Palais de Fes.

Can't complain
This hotel has very friendly staff and a gorgeous terrace with a magnificent view of the Medina. Basically it's the terraces in one. The AC was adequate and the also provided water everyday to us. The hotel is next to a main street and a main gate, so it's easy to use a taxi to get around. By meter during the day, the taxi fare is 13 dirham to the train station and 9 dirham to the blue gate attraction. I'd recommend this hotel to all travelers

Beautiful Dar in Fes
Beautiful historic well-situated structure in the heart of the Fes Medina. Onsite hospitable owner with an excellent attentive professional & hospitable staff. An excellent tour guide was hired for us by the owner and as well, he sent his private car & driver to pick us up at the train station. The included breakfast was excellent as was dinner the night before. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Fes.

Great location to enjoys old city770+284981
This was our first stay in Riyadh. The entrance is simply a door in an unadorned wall. Wow......all I can say is Wow!!!!! I've stayed at some nice hotels, but this one is by far the best experience we had. Upon entering the Riyadh we were mesmerised with the places beauty and really felt we were in morocco. The staffs were all welcoming as our luggage was taken to our room and once we had sorted the paperwork were served with fresh Mint tea on top of the hotel roof. The hotel location is perfect as you can enjoy he beauty of old city and is convenient closed to taxi stand where you can catch taxis if you need to go exploring. Although we were there for 4 days we felt the stay was very short and really would have liked to stay longer as we all enjoyed the stay so much due to the Riyadh and the service we received from staff. The staff from cleaning ladies to restaurant waiters to management all were very friendly and did all they could to make our experience a memorable. The breakfast was included in stay and was best breakfast we had in morocco. We had dinner couple of nights in the restaurant and the quality of the food was excellent; and the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. For entertainment the hotel had arrange a local musician who were very entertaining and enhance the experience of lovely. I can't possibly say enough about how wonderful this Riyadh is. Every detail was perfect. Look forward to returning again.

Great place, awesome stay BUT must have cell phone
We had a great stay at this excellent location. The riad is beautiful and well decorated with very nice top city view while eating breakfast or dinner. The food at this riad's restaurant is possibly the best we tried in Fes (highly recommended). The staffs are very hospitable and friendly to us. They even offered us 2 boxes of special cookies that we loved for free. However, our driver and tour guides were very troubled and offended that they were not welcome inside here when trying to get a hold of us for our meeting, nor their messages was passed on quickly. They were not allowed to wait inside (by the way there is no phone in the rooms here). We had several miscommunications/misappointments with our driver/guides in the 3 days stay. We noticed also when a local shop delivery came to see us, he was rushed out and very closely monitored. It was really odd. Just be sure to have a way/phone to communicate with your contacts here and you'll be ok.

Beautiful hotel on the edge of the Fes medina
We were pleasantly surprised about the beauty of the hotel. It's an old mansion (dar) converted to a hotel. The lobby area, terraces, public rooms, and restaurant area are beautiful. Most of the staff were excellent - kind, friendly and helpful - especially Samira Idriss, the Guest Relations Executive. And the chefs and their moroccan foods - heaven!! If you want to stay near or in the medina of Fes, this is the place to stay. The only negative is the rooms are dark and poorly-lit.
