Lovely place with a wonderful staff. Room is pretty and clean but is on the top floor of a 4-story walk-up, so a bit challenging. Bed is a bit too firm. Breakfast and service are excellent.
Didn’t stay long enough to enjoy everything as we arrived late and checked out early.
Staff couldn’t have been any nicer. Mint tea immediately upon arrival and it was great! Our room was a suite and full of character. Not pristine but that is the charm of the Riad. Had dinner at a neighboring Riad and that was amazing.
Our proprietor insisted on walking us there (3 women) and offered to come back to get us. We felt very safe.
Breakfast was ready promptly at 7:30 as we were leaving on a desert tour promptly at 8.
Sweets, breads and strong coffee was a great start to our day.
Thank you for your kindness!
Merci Hassan et merci à l’équipe de ce magnifique Riad.
Merci aussi à Bilal pour sa cuisine extraordinaire, des plats marocain avec de très bon produits.
À bientôt

Personale STRA disponibile ed efficiente oltre che molto cordiali. Dotazione della camera meravigliosa, struttura in generale meravigliosa. Abbiamo preso attraverso loro una guida per la Medina di Fes che oltre a parlare bene italiano è stato eccezionale ed abbiamo concordato insieme cosa vedere. Eccellente tutto
Riad fabuloso, todo o pessoal é fantástico, sempre pronto para ajudar no que fosse pedido. Quartos de sonho, onde nos sentimos uns verdadeiros reis. Muito bem localizado. Recomendo vivamente: quem nunca experimentou um Riad, esta é sem dúvida a melhor opção. Excelente qualidade/preço. Pequeno-almoço e jantares deliciosos.
Fes is an experience in itself. Riad Damia was a great experience, with the riad decorated in impressive Moroccan style. We were given a free upgrade to the top-floor suite which was huge and beautiful. The only downside is the water situation. On both nights, we had to settle for barely luke-warm water, which in itself, took more than 10 minutes of letting the water run to be passable in the cold winter.
Llegué en un vuelo nocturno, tarde y a pesar de tener la reservación las instalaciones de Raid, estaban cerradas. Estuve timbrando por alrededor de 20 minutos sin resultado alguno y jo fue sino hasta que acudí a un Raid vecino y les pedí, que le llamaran por teléfono al Raid en que había hecho la reservación. Aún después de eso esperé,más de cinco minutos.
El personal muy amable, solicité un cambio de cuarto porque mi esposa no podía subir dos pisos con frecuencia y me dieron uno cuarto más agradable en la planta baja.

C'est un jolie palace, avec beaucoup de charme, mais qui présente de nombreux signes de vétusté...
Riad molto carino, personale gentilissimo, in una zona tranquilla a soli 10 minuti dalla porta blu. La nostra stanza non si chiudeva e il bagno aveva un perenne cattivo odore, ma il personale è gentilissimo e la colazione ottima.

Riad molto carino accanto a Bab Ziat, facile da raggiungere con auto e taxi, stanza ENORME e graziosissima (un po' fredda a dire il vero), bagno bellissimo, colazione ottima, accordarsi bene sulle camere perchè ve ne sono senza bagno privato (ma non è segnalato al momento dell'acquisto su Expedia)
Huge huge room (we got the biggest of 8 rooms in this hotel). A bit nervous when our tax had to drop us off a block from the hotel since the alley is too narrow for cars; the single door is probably smaller than our house door, but once you step inside the hotel is quite big up high open ceiling. The decorations are spectacular. It's a bit dated but well kept and clean.
I can't compliment enough about the staff. There are a couple of them working around the clock. They're very helpful and attentive to our needs. Breakfast is ok; the breads are good but no meat and we got just one egg per person. The gourmet dinner (extra $$) on rooftop is unforgettable (although it's 3 times more expensive than at the nice restaurants near Blue Gate).
The hotel is about 20-min walk from Blue Gate (if you go outside and walk along the wall of the Old Town ... walking thru Old Town takes anywhere between 15-min to forever, depending on how good you're at navigating the 13,000 streets and alleys of Fes Medina LOL. We were there for 6 days and failed everytime we attempted it).
Will definitely consider staying here next time we're in Fes!

The hotel is not bad for the money you spend, eventhough i believe the management should spen more on ghe maintenance of the guest rooms and toilets rather than spending on the appearance of the check in waiting area
Though the room picture that expedia showed was not the same room i received , our room was beutiful, it was nicely decorated , the beds were comfortable, and the shower pressure was execllent. the breakfast was very good and lunch was excellent ( we had chicken pastilla, turkey skewers and chicken tagine ), i went with my two kids 8 and 12 and they were very happy, the hotel is nicely located near the madina about 10 to 15 mins walk.
Nos ha encantado el Riad y lo mejor, el trato que nos han dispensado, tanto a la hora del desayuno como con cualquier cosa que hemos necesitado, si volvemos a Fez seguro que repetimos.
Fes is a magical city. This Riad is also special. I noticed, however, that the owners like many others in Fes were more worried about making money than hospitality. As soon as you arrive they try to sell tours that may be very nice, but that we were not interested in. When we turned them down we noticed that the owner was not thrilled with us. We asked for recommendations for places to eat and they suggested their overpriced menu of course, they did not give us any other recommendations or tips. We noticed that they treated much better those who were spending more money on tours/at their restaurant.
The Riad itself is beautiful. Most Riads in Fes are. The problem is the cleanliness. The rooms were not clean, and the kitchen we of the Riad where the food was made was extremely dirty. There were bits of food on the counters left out overnight and just in bad shape overall.
I wouldn't go back to this Riad. Or the other three Riads owned by Mohammed. The Road is beautiful, it's just a shame that money is more important to them than cleanliness, upkeep, and hospitality.
