Le petit dej est servi ailleurs, dans un hôtel haut d gamme. il était bon.
Cons: Le fait de devoir marcher 5min pour le p'tit dej n était pas précisé. Pas de personnel sur place au riad. Si on rentre a pied la nuit tombée ,les rues de ce quartier ne sont pas sûres contrairement au quartier près de la porte bleue

Not this property, but the other location where we had breakfast was beautiful and breakfast was delicious.
Cons: Property was difficult to find, although we alerted them of our arrival time nobody was there to greet us or check us in. Thankfully another guest was there to open the door for us and we then had to sit in a dark lobby and wait for staff to arrive to do our check in. The room did not appear very clean and there were roaches both in the bathroom and in the pool. We had to walk to another hotel location for breakfast, which was not clear when the booking was made.

The staff were amazing and the location is good
Cons: It smelled bad all the time (like sewer), we had cockroaches in our room, the power sockets were all coming out, the room was not comfortable, everything felt old and sad. For the money paid for it I was expecting more (stayed in better riads where I paid less)

The Riad is very very beautiful. The location of the breakfast restaurant is stunning and the rooms were very comfortable
Cons: We asked for gluten free options for breakfast and despite saying they could accommodate the request, they only had fruit and eggs. I wouldn’t complain if it was an average Riad but from a 5 star place, I would expect a bit more than that. My partner was basically not able to have breakfast.

La posizione della struttura è impeccabile, nonostante non sia semplicissimo arrivarvi, è poi molto comoda per girare per la medina. Inoltre, la colazione è fantastica e vi serviranno un the di benvenuto micidiale, il migliore tra tanti bevuti in Marocco. La pulizia è inoltre eccellente (rispetto agli standard del posto è 10-0)
Cons: Il fatto che non ci fosse nessuno ad aspettarci e io abbia dovuto chiamare il "proprietario" ma, successivamente, si sono fatti perdonare con il the di benvenuto davvero buono.

Posizione davvero comoda, vicino all’ingresso della medina e facilmente raggiungibile in taxi. La nostra stanza si trovava a pochi minuti a piedi dalla reception principale, dove viene servita la colazione. Il ristorante sul rooftop è molto buono (anche se un po’ caro), ma la vista è semplicemente meravigliosa. Lo staff è molto disponibile e all’interno è possibile usufruire anche dell’hammam marocchino e dei massaggi.
Cons: L’unica nota negativa riguarda la guida che ci è stata fornita per il tour della medina. Avevamo richiesto una guida che parlasse italiano, ma la persona parlava un misto di spagnolo e italiano — forse sarebbe stato meglio in inglese. Inoltre, non aveva il tesserino ufficiale da guida turistica e ha spiegato ben poco, facendoci correre per la medina senza vere spiegazioni. Nei giorni successivi abbiamo esplorato da sole e ci siamo davvero godute l’esperienza: abbiamo scoperto angoli meravigliosi e conosciuto persone gentili e disponibili che ci hanno raccontato storie e curiosità sulla città.

Cons: Non c'era nessuno alla reception quando siamo arrivati e in più il posto si trova in una strada priva di condizioni igieniche. La Medina è estrema e questo alloggio non è in una delle vie più pulite. La piscina, motivo per cui ho prenotato era sporca e inusabile. La colazione ce la servivano in un altro palazzo e dovevamo attraversare la Medina in mezzo a gente che sputa a terra spazzatura e asini usati per portare i sacchi di immondizia. Sconsiglio questo posto a chi ha bisogno di ordine e pulizia all esterno e assistenza costante nell' hotel . L'interno era molto bello e pulito ma è stata tutta una impresa. Le uniche persone che si sono occupate di noi sono state le signore che pulivano e ci rispondevano molto cordialmente.

Heureusement que tout le monde a gardé son calme et que nous avons pu être upgrade après avoir visité 2chambres, ils nous ont proposés une suite qui était au top ☺️ l’amabilité du personne a toujours été au top et une personne nous a informer que les nouvelles photos étaient en cours ☺️
Cons: En fait, nous sommes arrivés au Riad la chambre réservé n’était pas du tout pareil que sur les photos qui faisaient chic bohème un peu luxe et nous sommes arrivés dans une chambre totalement différentes, aussi il est a noté qu’il n’y a ni restaurant dans ce Riad, ni réception, et le Riad lorsque on est rentré paraissait un peu vide et en manque d’entretien.. ex la piscine avec des résidus stagnant… le bagagiste nous a redirigé vers un autre hôtel à 5 min à pied la où se passe le petit déjeuner, la où est le restaurant

Queríamos vivir la experiencia del Riad, así fue. El lugar es bonito. Pero nuestra habitación no estaba en las fotos.
Cons: Empezando porque no había nadie que fuera como el responsable del Riad. Había un chico que era mesero, que hacía múltiples funciones. Pero no había nadie como responsable del lugar No nos dieron llave para entrar al Riad, tienes que pedir el favor a unos señores locales para que te acompañen. De las imágenes que uno ve de las habitaciones ninguna era la nuestra… estaba limpio pero olía mucho a húmedo con cigarrillo. No funcionaba el internet, solo en la sala principal.

J’ai de la difficulté à donner un review pour cet hôtel puisqu’il s’est passé beaucoup de choses. Nous avons eu beaucoup de difficulté à trouver le riad puisqu’il n’y a aucune indication ni dans les rues, ni en haut de la porte, contrairement à tous les autres riads environants et que le réseau cellulaire ne rentre pas dans la médina, ce qui nous a causé beaucoup de stress. Nous avons également dû cogner pendant plus de 7 minutes avant qu’on nous ouvre. La responsable nous a ensuite aidé du mieux qu’elle pouvait à rendre le tout le plus agréable possible, ce qui a été un gros plus pour l’établissement. La chambre était grande et belle. Ceci dit la douche, quoi qu’esthétique, n’était pas pratique, vu que nous devions tenir le pommeau de douche nous-même, ce qui nous a étonné vu le prix de la chambre. La salle de bain n’était également pas complètement fermée, donc s’attendre à entendre des bruits quand les autres vont à la toilette. La piscine était stagnante et aucun personnel ne se trouvait dans le riad. Le déjeuner n’était pas sur place et il fallait marcher 5 minutes jusqu’au Palais de Fès, ce qui était éreintant au début mais nous nous y sommes fait et les portions plus que généreuses ont compensé pour notre agacement. Les employés du Palais de Fès ont rendus notre séjour plus agréable et ont surpassés nos attentes quant à l’accommodation lors de notre journée de départ ainsi que pour l’organisation du transfert jusqu’à la station de bus CTM. Nous recommandons le Riad Almaz malgré les petits accrocs que nous avons rencontrés par la qualité du service que nous avons reçus et par la disponibilité du personnel.

Cons: Pas facile à trouver au départ, car l'accueil se fait dans un autre riad. Trop de cris ou pleure d enfants tard dans la soirée et tôt le matin... Les sonnerie de téléphone venant de l extérieur de la chambre , trop récurant..

La ubicación está bastante bien. Si llegas en taxi desde el aeropuerto, dirigete directamente al hotel: Palais De Fès Suites & Spa. Allí harás el check-ing y te llevarán hasta el riad que está a pocos minutos a pie. A nosotros nos dejó el taxi por otra zona (ya que indicamos la ubicación del riad) y nos costó un poco encontrarlo. La habitación está bastante bien. La bañera en el suelo es increíble. La familia que vivía en el riad super acogedora y amable. La habitación estaba muy limpia y la cama era muy cómoda. El desayuno se sirve en el hotel y es inmejorable. Nuestro vuelo salía tarde y pudimos esperar en el hotel. Mientras, nos enseñaron las instalaciones y nos sirvieron té. El personal es un encanto. Hay servicio de habitaciones diario.
Cons: Quizás el secador y que no había gel ni champú en la habitación. Además, la familia que regenta el riad tiene niños y por la tarde hacen mucho ruido siendo la piscina su zona de juegos.

The hospitality and the service of the host lalla Samira and Bouchra. We had booked Riad Almaz, but we were offered to stay in Dar Tazi, which is also owned by them. We really enjoyed the rooms and the beautiful scenery on the terras. And the delicious breakfast. I will definitely recommend this to my friends and come back again next time.

Staying at this traditional Riad in the heart of the Medina was an experience I’ll cherish forever, thanks in no small part to the extraordinary Ms. Bouchra. From the moment I arrived, her warmth, professionalism, and genuine kindness made me feel like family. She greeted me with a smile and a cup of mint tea after a long day of travel, setting the tone for what would be an unforgettable stay. Ms. Bouchra is truly the heart of this Riad. Her tireless dedication and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of my visit was flawless. Whether assisting with any request or going above and beyond to accommodate unexpected challenges, her patience, compassion, and pride in her work shone brightly. She made me feel cared for and valued in a way that far exceeded my expectations, transforming my stay into something truly special. Beyond the exceptional service provided by Ms. Bouchra and the staff, the Riad itself is a masterpiece of Moroccan artistry. When the curtains were pulled back upon my arrival, the interior took my breath away. The central courtyard, with its intricate arches, ornate wood carvings, and elegant mosaics, is a stunning testament to traditional craftsmanship. The vibrant tiles adorning the walls and fountains create mesmerizing patterns, each one a unique story of Moroccan heritage. Located in the heart of the Medina, this Riad offers the perfect balance of immersion and retreat. The bustling markets and lively culture of the old city are just steps away, yet inside the Riad, a peaceful oasis awaits. The tranquil sound of a trickling fountain and the warm glow of natural light cascading through the courtyard create a sense of serenity unlike anything I’ve experienced. This Riad is not just a place to stay—it’s a celebration of Moroccan culture, history, and hospitality, all brought to life by the remarkable Ms. Bouchra. Her extraordinary care and dedication elevate this property to something truly magical.
Cons: Nothing!

Absolutely incredible Riad, really beautiful, the personnel is amazing and will do anything to make your stay perfect. Very good breakfast as well !
Cons: There is absolutely no sound insulation, if you are unlucky (like us) and there is a family with little Childs, you will live the full toddler experience... Also don't do the tour with the "official guide" that the hotel gives you, he doesn't really care about history, it's more of a visiting his friends shops tour.

That breakfast was prepared daily and the size of the rooms were nice. The wifi worked well and the art was interesting. The sister property allowed us to use their driver to get to the mall for free. Going and returning, I just tipped him a few Dirham.
Cons: The live-in family had a toddler that stayed up until late in the evening. He screamed and ran around like the property was his house and not a hotel. The family was nice enough, but it was a very unprofessional dynamic. It felt uncomfortable to be using a pregnant live-in nanny for all of our hotel needs. Also, the pool was dirty so we couldn't use it. And the photos are staged. The furniture and blankets on the beds are not as nice as they are seen to be in the photos. Also, the Riad was a bit off the beaten track. If you like taking winding roads to get there and want somewhere isolated then this is your place, but it doesn't offer Terrace coffee services or dining like most other Moroccan hotels and it is a pain to get to with multiple bags.

Absolutely stunning facility with very large room and essentially a private pool Amazingly beautiful and carefully cared for riad Amazing breakfast Beautiful view in courtyard and from the rooftop terrace of the main facility
Cons: The main hotel (palace Fes) operated the riad that we were staying in. They had the main facility and then 3 roads in the Medina. It would have been very helpful to know that we should check in at the palace Fes and they would take us to our riad. We didn’t know this and had to ask many locals to help us find the nondescript unlabeled door in the Medina. No one was present when we knocked on the door and resulted in a uncomfortable wait for women in an alleyway while the caretaker was located

The staff was the best part of the experience. It was a bit tricky to get there due to the complicated alleys (which was the case for most riads in the area) but the staff picked us up from a location we specified when we got lost to help us get back to the riad. They were very nice and really made our stay more comfortable.

Cons: The property was not at the address that they provided. It was 10 mins from the original address on some shady streets. I received the key from the main entrance only in my last day. When I arrived the beautiful pool that you can see in the images had really cold water, impossible to use. There are no photos of the room I stayed in on the website. Wi-Fi was not working in the room, only in the main area. No batteries for the AC remote. No toilet paper. There was no soap for hand washing and the toilet was not well cleaned.

I really appreciated the warmth welcome from Abdul, it was midnight when we arrived and our 4 year old daughter was really hungry and he went to get some food for her without hesitation. The personnel from the Restaurant and the reception, they all make sure you feel like home. We had breakfast and dinner in the Palais de Fes restaurant and they were lovely with our daughters bringin special food for the baby really fast , always really warm with them and allowing them to play even when they were a little bit "loud/tired" after all day walking.
Cons: The name of the Riad in Booking is not the same than the name people tell you in reality, not really a problem but to ask for directions, nobody knew about Road Almaz, it was called something like "Riad Envy" , luckily Abdoul was there to help or the other staff from the Palais de Fes, they would call from their phones or takes directly to the Riad

We had a very nice stay at Riad Almaz. It was difficult to find our way to the Riad so we recommend to phone them in advance. The room was very comfortable and spacy and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The carefully prepared breakfast is served at the terras of the Palais de Fez, which is a 2 minute walk from the Riad. We took a trip to Chefchouen with the lovely driver Abdul, which is a nice man. Near the Riad, there is a nice restaurant “Almandar”. We like to come back next time!

The location is very good, inside the Medina. The breakfast was amazing, they allow to eat in their beautiful rooftop restaurant. The staff were very friendly, helping and welcoming.
Cons: The bathroom had a lot of issues, it was below the room therefore accessible through a staircase and had no doors so it smelled a bit in the room. It also feels like everyone in the Riad can hear what you're doing in your room.

Pros: 1. Very large room and very well decorated; hotel was very beautiful 2. Good breakfast spread - bread, orange juice, coffee and tea, omelette and much more 3. Location was close to the medina and a short walk to the centre Cons: 1. Not professional at all - they did not adhere to their own breakfast timings, did not provide a final bill and just verbally told us the amount to be paid 2. Poor service - bathroom was not clean when we checked in, left the Riad unattended sometimes and we had to wait for them
