Our stay at Riad Adarissa was truly exceptional and exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely welcomed. The riad is conveniently located just off a main street, but quiet enough to provide a peaceful retreat from the medina. Its location was easy to find once shown the way, especially with the help of Haddou, who met us outside the medina and assisted with our luggage. The hospitality was one of the highlights of our visit. On arrival, we were greeted with a warm cup of traditional Moroccan mint tea and given a map, along with helpful tips on how to navigate the area. The staff were incredibly accommodating, offering guided tours and trips without any pressure and ensuring we could explore comfortably on our own. We did book a day trip to Chefchaouen through them, and it was an excellent experience at a great price, giving us peace of mind knowing it was arranged by the riad. Beyond the outstanding service, the riad itself was beautiful, with stunning Moroccan decor and a lovely terrace offering breathtaking views over the city. Breakfast each morning was delicious, and the home-cooked dinner made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients was truly memorable. We were even given a packed breakfast for our day trip, despite breakfast already being included in the Chefchaouen tour. A special thank you to Fatimzohra, Noureddine, Hanane, and Haddou for making our stay so seamless. Haddou was incredibly helpful from the moment we arrived, assisting us with getting SIM cards and offering support throughout our time in Fes. Choosing Riad Adarissa was undoubtedly one of the best decisions we made for our trip, turning our stay into something unforgettable. We felt at home throughout our time there and would highly recommend it.

Nothing negative to say, everything was amazing!

My stay at Riad Adarissa was exceptional. The accomodation is inside the Medina of Fes and the riads design and decoration is stunning! my top-floor room was authentic and elegant, and the rooftop terrace provided unforgettable sunset views over the city. What truly elevated the experience, however, was the staff. Nourredine and Haddou welcomed me like family sharing thoughtful recommendations, insider tips, and fascinating historical context that brought Fes to life. I was also traveling solo and felt very safe at the Riad. I can’t recommend Riad Adarissa highly enough.

nothing to complain about. everything was perfect.

I stayed in the suite which was huge and so beautiful. Its location is amazing if you’re interested in staying inside the medina. It’s located directly off of the main market street. The breakfast is good and the dinners we had at the hotel were delicious, though a little pricey.

It wasn’t a problem for me, but something to be aware of: Not an option for anyone with mobility issues. There is no vehicle access to the hotel. You will walk a few minutes up inclined winding pedestrian streets. Be prepared for narrow, steep stairs as well. However, the staff will pick you up from the taxi and carry your bag to the hotel, and back out to the taxi at the end of your stay as well. They’re very helpful.

Great location, few minutes to the Blue Gate, just off one of the two main shopping streets in Medina. Very nicely renovated riad, breakfast was included and it was the usual Morrocan fair, but decent. They prepared packed breakfast when we were going on a trip and leaving early.

A bit of a hard sell when it comes to 'recommending' a nearby restaurant (or actually taking you there, asking you if you have been there, etc) - this is not what I expect from a hotel when I ask for advice. Also instead of advice how to get to the airport on a budget, an offer of 20-something € taxi as the only way of getting to the airport from Medina (which we took for the peace of mind but felt a bit of bad aftertaste). These are not deal breakers, rather something that could be improved (less hard sell, more genuine helpfulness will help you get more guests).

Riad Adarissa was absolutely lovely. Clean, pretty, and a calming oasis in the bustle of the Fes medina. The people were wonderful, especially Haddou, who met us at the medina gate and personally escorted us to the riad. And what a riad! The trickling fountain and flickering candles in the courtyard are only rivalled by the view from the stunning private terrace. The ultra-hot water was a bonus, too. Haddou looked after our every need while we were at Riad Adarissa, connecting us up with a medina guide and recommended restaurants. He always made sure we had a personal guide to accompany us throughout the medina, to ensure we didn’t get lost. His French is excellent, his English is good, and he was happy to teach us a little bit of Arabic as well. He and Fatima prepared beautiful breakfasts for us, and on our final day he personally escorted us up to the medina gate and found us a taxi to take us to the train station. What a terrific way to experience Fes. Thank you, Riad Adarissa ❤️

The location was good. It's only around 200 m to the Parking Ain Azliten. ATM and most of the attraction was in reasonable walking distance. The place was surrounded with the small souvenir shops that have more reasonable price compare with the shop nearby the Blue Gate. The interior of the guest house was amazing. The room was small but the furniture's choices was great so even we can open our big luggage without problem. The bed was comfortable. Our room was being cleaned everyday, which is surprising for a guest house class. However, the best part from all were the staffs. All people were welcoming. The breakfast was made with love. Mr. Haddou was really helpful. He helps us to bought something in the market so we won't get scam. He help us with our baggage to the Blue Gate! He connect us with other guests that staying there too! So we can share our stories. Definitely a worth place to stay in Fes.

It would be great to build a soundproofer in the room because sometimes we can hear people opening the door or people talking in the hall.

We felt at home ever since we were welcomed by Mr Haddou and his family, who took great care of us. He helped coordinate our day trips, prepared dinner onsite on our first day at Fez and arranged pick- ups and drop- offs. It made our first visit to Morocco memorable and stress free. I can’t thank Mr Haddou enough for his warm hospitality and cheerful demeanor. Also, the manager Mr Noureddine was also very helpful and accommodating.

We liked everything about the property!

The Riad was a beautiful home from home, in a side road off the Talaâ Kebira and 5 minutes from the blue gate. The location was quiet with excellent view of the medina rooftop from the terrace, yet you can enjoy the excitement of bustling through the medina streets with an array of shops, restaurants and sites on your doorstep. The Riad team were excellent hosts, informative, kind and generous. Haddou and his wife were super friendly and provided delicious meals and good company. Nourredine was a wealth of knowledge. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious with an array of artisan breads, pastries, honey, olives, cheese etc. we had a delicious couscous on Friday. The Riad is tastefully decorated and our suite was comfortable and spacious. We would definitely return!

Nothing. On a side note check that the upstairs rooms are suitable if you have mobility issues. This is a traditional Riad with high steps.

Riad Adarissa is conveniently located in the Fes medina. But, the real reason to stay here is the exceptional hospitality. Haddou went out of his way to make everything enjoyable, from the moment he met us to the time we left. His wife, Hanane, was the chef. We chose to eat our dinners at the Riad, and it was a great decision. The meals were fantastically prepared and it gave us more time to enjoy the company of Haddou, Hanane, and the gracious owner of the Riad Adarissa, Jean Claude. When traveling, it's the people you meet who make things special. And the people at Riad Adarissa made everything special and memorable for us. Highly recommend! Our room was adjacent to the dining room and was perfect for us. Others might prefer an upstairs room. The terrace gives a nice view of Fes. A Moroccan Breakfast was included and we enjoyed it.

Instant communication from Noureddine prior to visit, great location, the food was excellent, ate in the evening a couple of nights, thanks to Fatima for the great food. Special thanks to Haddou, who really looked after us and went out of his way to make sure we had a good time, he really helped make our visit to Fez memorable.

Didn’t stay long enough!
