Everything was just PERFECT! Beautiful house, great owner who knows A LOT about the history of Fez. Gave us great tips and advices for our tour in Fez. He really cared about us. The lady was very friendly and nice too. She made for us amazing Moroccan breakfast every day. Definately one of the best accomodation in whole Morocco (we were also in Tangier, Casablanca, Marrakesh, Agadir). One more plus, this is a small place, not a hotel with people coming-going all day.

We were amazed by the things one can do in Fes, we were not expecting that such a nice city isn’t that visited as Marrakech or others parts of Morocco, but it is true that we need to give special thanks to our hosts of Riad Dar Chrif Idrissi, definitely without them our stay in Fes wouldn’t have been as charming as it was, they recommend the best places to see inside and outside the Medina, and they even help us to arrange a personal tour, also they gave us the best advices for food (Fes’s pastilla 10/10). The service was very very amazing we had some troubles moving around the Medina, we got lost one day, and they help us quickly and without inconveniences to find our way back. The views from the terrace to the Medina are along the hospitality of our hosts the most notable feature of the Riad. If you are looking for a trip full with Moroccan culture, but without losing some commodities then this is the perfect option. Thanks a lot Amine.

Everything was amazing.

The room is nice but doesn't have any natural light

Abdennabi was an amazing host, he helped us plan our short trip around Fes and went over and above to make us feel welcome and help us in any difficulties. The morning traditional Moroccan breakfast on the terrace had an amazing view.

Our stay at the Dar Chris Iddrissi in the Fes Old Medina had accomodations with a special charm. The breakfast was always great and the service provided by Abbedani had no equal. We always felt like more than guests and knew that he would always help. Anything or anyone we needed, he made it happen. His abilities and hospitallity made our stay perfect.

Not much besides the small size of the room, and perhaps also the noisiness at night ( we were sleeping next to a family )

Incredible location ! Great host and authentic riad. Loved the roof of the riad !

As the place is near a mosque there is some loud noise around 4.45am for around 15min. This is something that you get in all muslim countries specially in the old medinas so it was expected but needed to point out in case you are a light sleeper.

I've traveled to a lot of countries and I can say Adbenabi is the best host I ever had! He was amazing helping us in every situation. I can not reccomend him enough! Also, his place has a beautiful terrace where you can have breakfast and is located in the old Medina so very convinient to visit. Fes is a beautiful City and one feels like its in a medieval town when visiting.

The location is wonderful. The host took very good care of us. They were always with us in every matter. A traditional and perfect place to stay. You can stay with peace of mind.

If you are a light sleeper, the walls are not thick - but easily solved with ear plugs.

Abi was so incredibly kind and helpful. He really went the extra mile on every level, including personally escorting us to the riad at 1am and walking us to and from dinners.

Nothing. But just keep in mind this is a guesthouse more than a hotel so adjust your expectations when booking.

I loved that this place strikes the perfect balance between a hotel and an Airbnb. I felt incredibly welcomed and comfortable in this beautiful house, which is conveniently located within walking distance of all the main attractions in the Medina. What truly made my stay unforgettable, however, was the hospitality of the hotel manager, Abdenabi. He was exceptionally kind and helpful throughout my visit, going above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. If you’re looking for an authentic, traditional experience with a personal touch, I can’t recommend this place enough.

Abdenabi, the hotel owner, was extremely nice to me on arrival and helped me plan out my day and ensure I could find the places I wanted to visit while visiting other stores where you could get certain items for cheaper. he was also lovely to talk to and speaks very good English.

Dar Chrif Idrissi is located inside the Medina, but not too far from the Medina gate, so it is convenient to come there by taxi, and you just have to walk a little bit to reach the house. Abdennabi, the host, was nice and helpful beyond expectations. He speaks good English, he ensures your stay is comfortable, he helps with local food, guided tours or any other need you might have. We were pleased to stay in Dar Chrif Idrissi and we recommend this place.

I would highly recommend this lovely house. My partner and I were looked after with such warm hospitality and were made to feel completely at home. The location is ideal- very close to everything without being on a super touristy street. There's a lovely hammam right around the corner, lots of food and produce stalls nearby (with access to the kitchen, we were able to pick up bits to cook for ourselves when we didn't feel like dining out), and it's a pleasant stroll to the main shopping streets. The breakfast, made by a really lovely woman, is delicious, and was served on the roof terrace with amazing views.

It has many stairs and the water pressure was not good in the toilet

Very nice rooftop and the breakfast was amazing! We had common spaces and the room was big enough.

Internet could be better, but it worked.

I use this as a way to thank the host! He was exceptionally welcoming and caring! I arrived and left sick, but he took care of me the whole time. Checking on me if I was ok, If I needed anything. He bought me special food and drinks which I needed at the time and he didn't want to take any reimbursement of even a tip for it. He offered to cook dinner for me and to show me how to cook a traditional tangine. As the hotel is not so easy to find, he came to pick me up from a place nearby 2 times. He also told me some history and information about Fes, and thought me a few words in Arabic. As a woman travelling alone, I felt very safe and comfortable here (not a given in the country). My room was comfortable, quite, with clean sheets and towels, and had a radiator which I could use to heat up the room. The hotel is beautiful, has a very nice roof terrace on the top.

Nothing stands up as negative

Very good location, clean and warm. The manager was very helpful and friendly, done more than expected. It was good value for money.

No

Great location, market is right outside the door. Nice sweet decoration details throughout the property. Most importantly, the manager Abdennabi is a great man, his service started from days before arrival. He picked me up from the nearest bank where my driver found it easily and he helped me with my luggage to the room. He even arranged takeaways for dinner as it was late. He provided travel information and sent warm messages after I left.

For inexperienced travelers, at first arrival, it may be challenging to find the place. But the host will guide you, even personally come to pick you up and walk you to the riad.

Beautiful interior. Great rooftop terrace with views above the entire medina. Amazing host who went out of his way to make sure i was well taken care of. Almost like having your private in house butler 😁

This Riad is inside the medina so the location is perfect. The host is nice and helpful. From the train station/airport you would arrive at Place RCIF because the cars can't go inside the medina from where the host will pick you up. Just like everything else in Fes medina, its impossible to find it yourself so don't try - thats part of the fun in Fes Medina! For the price (26 Euros) for the night, its definitely worth it. They have a terrace with views of the city. Pro tip: If you want to experience a stay in Riad, you should definitely go for it but otherwise its narrow, steep stairs so it was a struggle with luggage and if you have any mobility issues, a Riad is not for you. Most of the rooms don't have any windows either so it can feel claustrophobic. Its not just this Riad but any.

Stayed in November 2024

Abdennabi met us at the place where we arrived by taxi. Which was extremely helpful to easily find the way to the hotel. The riad was steeped in charm and character. Abdennabi was helpful in guiding us through the labyrinth of the bazaar. He shared his knowledge and was always ready to help out and point us to some nice places to visit. He definitely made our stay more pleasant. On the last day he offered to help us to get on a taxi to the busstation. We had a lovely stay in Fes.

Dar Chrif Idrissi is a pearl in the medina of fez, in the very proper centre. It has an amazing terrace with the view of the city. The host, Abdenabbi, toke care of us in a special way, he shown us where to have a real morrocan dinner, where to buy souvenirs ecc. thank you Abdenabbi, you helped us to enjoy Fes.

Everything was great

My family loved our stay. Abdul was a gracious host, who helped us with our stay and our ongoing travel. The facilities were all great but the rooftop terrace was our favourite part.
