Ryad Salama

Excellent stay! Yunus and Lolanda were excellent hosts at the Ryad Salama!

Amazing. A secret in the heart of Fes.

Wow- Ryad Salama is a dream! My husband and I have been traveling for 9 weeks and this was by far our favorite place. It’s stunningly beautiful, comfortable, clean, spacious, and the staff is very responsive and helpful. Our room was large (more like a suite) and we loved having a private balcony for reading. Having breakfast and dinner in the garden were lovely, and we enjoyed being able to get a beer or a bottle of wine in our downtime. We didn’t want to leave!

What a beautiful ryad (the photos don't do it full justice) and we had a great stay. We were made very welcome by Yolanda and the team, and were given a map and loads of information for the area which was very helpful. We were in the African room and it was very tastefully appointed with a separate seating area and a furnished patio looking onto the courtyard and was very comfortable. The courtyard has a lovely plunge pool with sun-loungers and is full of beautiful green foliage and orange tress. The ryad also has a furnished rooftop terrace which I suspect some guests were unaware of because they stayed only a couple of days, whereas we were there for a week. The breakfast was served in the courtyard and was delicious with something different every morning. The evening meal on the first day was also very good and tasty and excellent value. The location is ideal because it's quiet even though it's in between the two main thoroughfares through the medina, and it's safe. There are loads of restaurants nearby and there's also plenty of sightseeing opportunities within easy walking distance. A must see is the fort/armouries overlooking the old town - it's worth the walk uphill because the view is great. I would certainly recommend this ryad and would stay again. Yolanda and the team were so pleasant and helpful, so much so that when we left and couldn't find a taxi immediately Yolanda offered to take us to the train station herself - not many people would be so generous.

We really enjoyed staying at Ryad Salama.
