Riyad al Atik

We were high maintenance travelers on our trip to Fes, thanks to poor planning on our part. But all was not lost! Our hosts at Riyad all Atik were gracious, friendly and extremely helpful. One host stayed up to meet us and guide us to the hotel at 1am in the morning, and that next morning woke up at 630am to get us to a bus stop and sent us along with a breakfast sandwich (with jam and cheese) and water. Fortunately, we were back the next night at a much more relaxed pace. The breakfast was large and wonderful, and his explanation if the city was very helpful. He arranged taxis, tour guides, restaurant recommendations, etc. The Riyad is smack dab in the middle of the old City, and just an incredible experience. I highly recommend!

Nice place to stay in the Medina. You're close to the action but still experience serenity when you're inside this Riad. Very helpful staff, confirming our booking for us with other tour group and shared places to see and experience. Simple Moroccan breakfast is a good touch. Will definitely stay with them when I do visit again. Just a reminder, no cars are allowed in this part of Medina and you will need a cart to haul your luggage which the hotel staff will be happy to assist you.

This turned out to be our favorite Riad of our trip (out of 4). We didn't see the owner, but the gentleman who was there was very nice, albeit way too quiet. I wished he had spoken up more to provide info - he would only answer the direct question he was asked. Our room though (at the top by the patio) was really comfortable for us and had a great worn-but-clean feel. We brought an infant and they provided a crib. It was very quiet and even on the roof we couldn't much hear the loud Medina streets, but it was practically right in the middle of the best parts of the Medina. We would definitely stay there again.
