Riad Le Calife

Alex, Jasmine, Moumain and the whole riad team are excellent hosts and we had a very enjoyable stay. Situated at the edge of the Fes Medina, Riad le Calife is conveniently located for walks, tours, restaurants, and city access. The Riad is beautifully restored and decorated with a real collectors and designer's' eye that evokes the golden age of that ancient city..

First, the place is absolutely gorgeous… Like a serene palace. Secondly, the staff and owners are beyond gracious… There to help you at almost every turn. We got great recommendations about what to do, where to shop, where to eat… You name it! It is also really lovely to have a place that has a bar emits the usual sans alcohol in the medina. There really isn’t anything not to like!

It seems all the Riad‘s in Morocco are difficult to find and you cannot get dropped off at the door. So for the first time you need someone to show you the way. After that, it’s a piece of cake. This place was no exception in that I needed help finding it But for two dollars they helped me and also carried the luggage.

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful riad. Alex welcomed us with great energy and gave us a wonderful introduction to the city — we ended up loving it thanks to him. Yasmin was always kind and helpful, and their recommendations were spot-on. And although Bimba wasn’t always around, whenever she was, she brought such warmth and joy that we jokingly agreed she might be the real host of the riad. The staff were all very friendly, and the location was perfect — easy to find. The riad was beautifully decorated and had a very peaceful, welcoming atmosphere. I was traveling with my mother, and she also had a great time. Highly recommended!

Riad le Calife is a great place to stay. The owners/staff will do EVERYTHING possible they can to maximize your fes experience! The property including the rooms are renovated in stunning archetypical moroccan decor. Those prople with any mobility issue should request a room on a lower floor.

Excellent Riad. Wonderful, personal service from all staff we encountered. Lovely breakfast. We had the best day with the tour guide they arranged for us, Hassan. Highly recommend a stay here!

The place was exceptional! Great location, very comfortable bed in beautifully decorated room with a lot of attention to details in every corner. The property was quiet and serene which was such a nice change from the hustle bustle of the medina. It was easy to find as it's close to a main road, an important point as the medina is not easy to navigate. The bar takes you back to 1920's with the music and ambiance to match. The hosts, Alex and Jasmine, were very hospitable and make us felt very welcome! The staff were all very graciously helpful. Had a meal there one night and the food was excellent, make sure you eat at least once at the property as the chef made excellent home cook meals which you won't get at restaurants. Will definitely go back to stay in the future, even just to relax in the beautiful courtyard and rooftop.

The Riad is in a perfect location. Once you work out the labyrinthine alleyways, everywhere is easy walking distance. The Riad itself is a home from home. The decor is full of fascinating treasures that Alex and Yasmine have collected. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Fatima, the chef, produces good breakfasts and evening meals. We loved it.
