Riad Moulaydriss et Giacomo

If you are reading this review then hurry and book your room at this Riad! Our stay was short, but simply amazing. Not only is the Riad absolutely beautiful, with an incredible rooftop, amazing courtyard, delicious restaurant (probably the best dinner we had in Morocco), and spacious/comfortable rooms - but the staff here is was truly makes the difference. This is a family run Riad and they make you feel like family from the second you walk through their doors. The location is perfect, only a 1 minute walk after your car drops you off and perfectly near the action of the Medina. They are also accommodating with booking tours, cooking classes, hammans, etc. (Book your private tour with them directly!! And make sure you have dinner with them at least one night!!!) Overall, this property was a 10/10 and I couldn’t recommend it more - we can not wait to come back and stay again!!

Beautiful authentic hotel with a centuries-old history. Everything is designed to perfection. The staff is very friendly.

Since it’s an authentic hotel, the room facilities are a bit more traditional

The art and the magnificent Arabic designs and patterns

Beautiful traditional venue with very helpful and hospitable staff in a great location in old town Fez

Beautiful property in an excellent location in the Medina.

This is a beautiful Riad, the family who own it have done a wonderful renovation. Sitting in its stunning communal area and drinking the best mint tea we’ve had in Morocco was a delight. Our room was comfortable, and everything spotlessly clean. We enjoyed a meal one night, perfectly home cooked. And while quite expensive, you get what you pay for … and it was delicious! The Riad is in a perfect location just within the Medina walls, a minute away from transport pick up/drop off area and local cafes, and only a few minutes to restaurants, the Blue Gate and the beginning of the souk. Batoul, the hotel manager, organised a guide for us on our first day, to help us navigate the Medina - an older gentleman who was outstanding in his knowledge and professionalism. Batoul was wonderful in her assistance to us, also organising our day trip to Volubilis and Meknes, and a transfer to Chefchaouen. And many, many thanks to Sara, who went out of her way to serve us so very well every day of our 5 night stay. Yes, it’s the staff who run this Riad who make it such an outstanding place to stay. We highly recommend it.

Not really a complaint, this is an old Riad! But the plumbing in the bathroom (shower in particular)) was just adequate - not quite what we’re used to! And we were on the 4th floor and the staircase was quite narrow, could be an issue for those with any mobility issues. We’d booked a mid range room (21 square metres) through Booking.com. If we’d known how glorious the suites were, we would have splurged and booked one! Unfortunately the Booking.com explanation wasn’t clear in its descriptions. Our fault, we should have researched further. Next time!

A home away from home. What a fantastic place close to the heart of the medina. Truly felt like we were at home with no request or ask too big for the owner Batool.

This Riad is a family run business with truly Moroccan values of grace, charm and hospitality. Batul couldn't have been more helpful and charming. The excursions she offered were exceptional -- which is often where riad - suggested guides and experiences fall below expectations. Not in this case. I'd highly recommend -- and don't miss the beautiful roof top for relaxing outside.

Everything!! This Riad is an absolute gem. It was my first time in Fes, and like many, I spent a lot of time looking for a good place to stay, reading reviews, and researching while still not really knowing if I was picking the right place. Simply put, I feel like I stumbled upon a jackpot. I can't imagine having as good of a time in Fes if I hadn't stayed at Riad Moulay Driss. If you're planning a trip to Fes and reading this, book your stay here now. You won't regret it—I guarantee you will thank me. The location is perfect. The Medina is obviously where you want to stay and explore, but if you're not used to it, as I wasn't, it can be a bit of a maze, and you will probably get a little turned around. Riad Moulay Driss is in the Medina, right off one of the main streets. More importantly, and something I guarantee you will appreciate, is that it is near one of the perimeters and an impossible-to-miss landmark, the Blue Gate. Getting back will never be a hassle, and getting there from the airport or train station is much easier than reaching other places in the Medina. Besides the perfect location, this Riad is beautiful. It's a renovated family home, and the pictures don't do it justice—it's stunning! As I mentioned, this was a family home, and the family still owns and manages the Riad. They and their staff are incredible—very friendly, multilingual, and they will take great care of you! They can answer any of your questions and help you set up any tours you want to take, both in and out of town, at very reasonable prices. They're also super communicative before your trip and can help you arrange everything. If you're looking for a place in Fes, you've found it. You will love this place!

What an amazing place! This riad is so so lovely. The inner courtyard was beautiful and covered in traditional zellige tiles. The breakfast every morning were divine. Every day they cooked the eggs differently so it never got tired. The staff were SO attentive and kind, they made us feel so welcome. They organized a phenomenal tour of the city for us, called a airport transfer, and provided a laundry service. Would recommend again and again!

Nothing!
