Staff were particularly good; always avaiable and ready to help. Both Zahraa and Rasheed are marvelous; they make you feel like family. Zahra was very accomodating with offering available room that is more conveniwnt whwn possoble ( ground floor). Proximity of the Riad fo the entrance to old Medina (Bab Jaloud) was a bonus We made friends at Riad AlAndalus!

Not particularly keen on food ( quality wise); good experience rhough! Mind you Zahra wa again trying to provide for preferences. Potential to be booked on upper floors whoch may be difficult for petsons with limitations Cleanliness, due to old structure and bedding, is a challwnge I guess ( at least my standards_expectations were not met... thete was daily floor cleani g etc... but can clean scatfeted rugs for example!!! Do not count on Riad to provide you with shampoo and petsonal gels and soaps!

We loved Riad Dar Al Andalous. The riad itself is magnificent with two linked courtyards overlooked by several of the rooms, the decor is authentic without being over the top. Our suite, the Manzeh was delightful with lots of windows, a supremely comfortable king bed and bags of Moroccan style. It was also very warm, which is important, as in Winter the tall courtyards are really almost impossible to heat. The location really could not be bettered, it is just outside the medina but 5 minutes walk to the souks, tanneries etc, in the other direction are the Mellah, Royal Palace and gardens. The lane in which it is found is calm and quiet. We walked everywhere from here at all hours. But the real stars of Al Andalous are the staff; Zahra, Osmane and Rashid were incredibly welcoming and responded readily to our every request. We felt this to be a real home from home. We also booked a private day tour with Omega tours, located just opposite, to Volubilis and Meknes with "no shopping". This was unforgettable and highly recommended, our driver Salim was excellent.

You have to experience this beautiful place to understand what it is all about. Such a gorgeous place in the centre, kept as beautiful as it is for over 20years now and whereever you look you see dedication, passion and respect to the origins. One of the first 3 Riyad’s in Fes, this place is really something different. We spontenaously spent the new year’s days here, and couldn’t be better to be honest. Othman, his parents, Rashid, Zahra and the crazy good live music made us feel at home❤️ they also somehow managed to find the Grapes for the tradition and it was so much fun to share those moments with them!!! Our room was in the ground floor, it was very charming, especially the ceiling. It’s always full so make sure to plan and book it in advance I’d say. The cleaning service and the staff was very good. The breakfasts were very abundant and the food served is very good. We can’t forget our randomly served teas throughout the day🥰 such a nice detail. We definitely recommend booking a guide for a tour in the city, we didn’t listen to them on this and now wishing that we would have done that! It definitely worths it! If you’re planning to visit Fes please make sure to stay here, you’ll thank for it later🥂

The place was beautiful, our room was very spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The location is great to explore the Medina although after dark it felt a little sketchy.

We asked for help on options to get to Fez and we felt a little pushed by the hostess to book through her instead of providing clear information on all options available. We ended up booking in our own for €15 les per person than the option she offered which left us feeling like we would have been taken advantage of.

We stayed at the Riad Dar Al Andalous from October 30 to November 2, 2024, and it was a delightful experience. The room was not only spacious but also had a very nice view of the internal patio, making our mornings truly magical. The staff were incredibly friendly, Zarah, Otmane and Rachud, went out of their way to ensure our comfort and safety. The breakfast included in ojr rate was outstanding, specially the M’semen. I would highly recommend this Riad if you are planning to visit Fes for a few days, or anyone looking for a relaxing getaway! (They have an area for Hammam)

Nothing to mention here.

Gorgeous Riad with wonderful open space and friendly staff. We felt welcomed and were given lots of tips and recommendations for the city. We asked for a dinner recommendation and they organized someone to come pick us up to take us to the restaurant, which was very nice of them. The breakfast every morning was a highlight, as eating in the courtyard with its fountain is the perfect way to start the day. We definitely recommend staying here—it was our favorite hotel that we stayed at in our two weeks in Morocco!

This is a beautiful riad in the traditional Fes style with two inner courtyards in a very accessible location for the old city. The staff were wonderful - very friendly, attentive, and kind. Zahra made us feel really welcome, she was always available to answer questions in English, French and Arabic with insight and good humour, and ensured we were comfortable and had everything we needed; Ouliya is a remarkable cook and we enjoyed several delightful dinners Moroccan-style at the riad after long days walking about (it's important to let the staff know in advance if you want dinner in the evening, so they can discuss the menu with you and buy ingredients fresh that day); and Rashid was a solid and special presence who helped us feel comfortable and at home in so many ways. This is a family owned riad that is integrating their younger family members into the business, so visitors of all ages and backgrounds are welcomed. As an older woman, I felt very safe and my son felt very well treated.

If you like quiet, then ask for a room on one of the upper floors, provided you can manage stairs. If you like easy access, then a room on the ground floor is very convenient. When in the Medina, it took us time to gauge prices that weren't excessive even for tourists, so doing some homework on what to expect is a good idea.

Dar Alandalous is a jewel in the heart of the Medina of Fez, boasting stunning architecture that showcases the rich heritage of the region. The staff, led by Otmane and Zara, are the highlight of the Riad—always going above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay with a smile. Guests can look forward to a fairytale experience with beautifully adorned rooms. The breakfasts were varied, and they really took into account your own preferences (e.g. we liked scrambled eggs). The location is also incredibly convenient, situated on a quiet street near major attractions with easy walking distance to the Medina.

While the overall experience is great, some areas could use improvement. The bathrooms and electrical outlets need better maintenance to match the quality found throughout the rest of the Riad. Improved lighting in the rooms would enhance the atmosphere, especially for those who find the current setup a bit too dark. Additionally, noise can be an issue, particularly from the main patio affecting the nearby suites. Lastly, guests with a preference for savory breakfast items might find the options limited, as the menu leans heavily towards sweet dishes.

We loved our big room with a comfortable bed, high celings and a jacuzzi! The common areas are stunning. Delicious breakfast with local and fresh food. Rashid welcomed us every day with a big smile. He made our stay unique! always there to assist us. The place is close to restaurants and the medina. I trully recommend it. We went in February so we couldn't enjoy the terrace. We share the place with only another couple so practically had it Riad for us. Love it!

The first night we didn't have warm water for the jacuzzy. They explained to us it was due to the low use of the pipes and more tiem was needed. We enjoy a warm bath the next morning :)

Magnificent decor and surroundings. Spacious rooms...perfect for relaxing in and courtyard and central areas also nice to relax, read, chat, watch the birds. A real treat, every angle something beautiful to see. The staff were all friendly and very welcoming. Treated to mint tea and biscuits on arrival. It was great to meet the manager and hear about the history of the house and his daughter ws very helpful. Helped us to buy train tickets we needed All in all a beautiful experience.
