This was dep in the medinah— not easy to get to and it was extremely noisy. A decent road but not a 5 star experience.

Dar Bensouda was a lovely oasis of calm in the middle of the Fes medina! When I say “in the middle”, I mean it - so definitely take the option to have a porter meet you with a cart to help you with your bags through the medina! It’s a gorgeous place and reception was super helpful with helping me get in touch with my upcoming desert tour operator to arrange pick up times at location when they initially weren’t answering. Also definitely try their in-hotel hammam and their restaurant too for dinner while you are staying there! I noticed some reviews mentioned a bad smell but that was not the experience for me, throughout the hotel they had that lovely scent infuser like you get in luxury spas which I really enjoyed. Only stayed for one night as I was travelling through from Chefchaouen but wished I could have stayed longer!

We had a great visit. We stayed for a few nights. The hotel is technically two joined buildings. One side has a swimming pool that is great to use on a hot day. There is an extensive roof deck with good views of Fes and comfortable seating. The restaurant is good - we sometimes at breakfast, lunch and dinner there. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. Also, the staff really went out of their way to help us. We used the spa and it was a highlight too.

A fabulous Riad. Stunning interior. Great location in the heart of the Fez Medina. One thing to keep in mind is that there are lot of stairs. Fez is hard if you aren't fit. We were fine but my mother would have had difficulties.
4-night trip

10/10

We were told by everyone this was the best Riad in Fez and they were right. It’s about a 10 minute walk from the drop off point but it’s worth it. It’s a beautiful place like traveling back in time. We had a suite and it was large and very comfortable. The staff was amazing, very helpful. The food was made to order and it was great. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Fez.

The property was beautiful and very well maintained. The staff were excellent, particularly the GM, Yassine. He went to great lengths to make sure we were comfortable and felt welcome during a very busy week. We are grateful he was there and are glad to have met him.

We absolutely loved our stay here! As soon as you enter the riad you step into an oasis of colors, calmness and beauty. The staff is super friendly and will do anything to make you feel at home. And we definitely felt that way! Also the food is amazing. Super fresh and tasteful, made with lots of love. Riad Dar Bensouda is the perfect stay to relax and enjoy the beauty of the old magical city of Fez. We are definitely coming back! Thank you guys!
