Riad Laaroussa- Hotel & Spa

First to enjoy Fez you must stay in the Medina. Then, no better place. This is a 5 star place, service actually beyond that. The house is beautiful and while Fez is great, you feel sorry every time you leave the Riad. The rooms are gorgeous. The garden is top architectural and serenity like no other place. Even the turtle Paul and the two dogs Ben and Lou are perfect. The terrace on top incredible. The breakfast as expected from a top hospitality like this. The hosts make you feel at home. Every single one warm, friendly, professional. They organized a 1/2 day tour of the city with Momo and was great. Also a full day trip to Schefchowen with Omar that is a must. I can’t think of anything I could have asked to be better in this place. Perfect. PS: We stayed in the Orange room. So gorgeous!

This place was over the top! The view from the rooftop was unbelievable. The staff was like a family, all working together as an amazing team. They went above and beyond our expectations for accommodating us, and not one of them seemed "put off" in the least when we asked for any help (which we did a few times). The most fantastic things, other than the overall beauty and history of the place, were a pet turtle that walks around the courtyard and the way Malek (one of the amazing staff) rushed to save a small bird that accidentally flew into the pool. I was already convinced this place was magical, but when I witnessed him saving that tiny bird like that, I was over the moon in love with the culture of this riad. It was just terrific in all regards. My 11 year old daughter and I highly recommend it here.

Incredible experience at riad laaroussa. Their room, service, atmosphere, attentiveness, amenities were an absolute joy to be among. Would definitely stay again if visiting Fes

Wonderful place, do not pass up the chance to experience it yourself!

First, this place is a fifteen minute walk into a maze of ancient alleys. You must have a way to communicate your arrival to the hotel staff so they can meet you with a luggage cart and guide. The road itsel has luxurious courtyard and rooftop, but the rooms are pretty basic. Like cement floors. Way less nice than the Web site pics look. Do not bother with higher prices ones. They are all pretty basic. But do stay here for the wonderful public spaces. The jasmine was in bloom. Lovely. Now, dinner us way overpriced but convenient. Seriously, three nice phylo appetizers, some chicken stew and a brownie for thirty dollars. Food is cheap and good hereso do t waste your money on dinner. We did have them arrange a tour guide who was great and only forty dollars all day. A final note: if you have problems with stairs this is not for you! Stairs are steep and plentiful. Hotel is a maze of levels. But if you like mountain climbing this hotel is good training. So we did love it but just know rooms are really spartan. Don’t be fooled by pics on web.
