基本的には良い宿でした。 テラスからの眺めも良かったですし、室内も毎日綺麗に掃除してくれます。（タオル交換ももちろん有り） シャワーについては、初日の夜は何故かお湯が出なくてほぼ水でシャワーを浴びる事になりましたが、それ以降はお湯は出たので問題ないかと。（サハラツアー帰りで砂まみれだってたので、シャワー浴びない選択肢は無かったです…） チェックインの対応をしてくれたスタッフ（名前忘れちゃった）はとても親切に案内してくれ、チェックアウト前日には出発時間の確認と朝食の時間なども確認してくれて安心出来る感じでした。 ただ、チェックアウトの対応が最悪でした。 別のスタッフが最終日に対応していましたが、朝食後に11時にチェックアウトする予定を伝えていたにも関わらず、11時にレセプションに行きましたが誰も居らず。 清掃員の女性にチェックアウトしたい旨伝えると、そのスタッフに電話してくれたので、チェックアウトしたいと伝えたところレセプションで待っててとのことで、20分ぐらいレセプションで待ってましたが来ませんでした。。 再度、清掃員の女性を通して電話して、バスの時間があるから今すぐチェックアウトしたいと伝えたところ、5分で着くと言われたのでレセプションで待ってましたが、15分以上経っても来ず。。 流石にバスの時間が迫ってきていたので、再度電話してもらい、もう待てないから出る旨伝えて宿を出ました。 最後の最後で、この宿への印象が悪くなりました。。

For anyone who wants the incredible experience of staying in the walled medina, I highly recommend staying at this dar (home). The staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful. One highlight is the delicious daily breakfast (included in cost) served on the rooftop overlooking the city. The rooftop view was magnificent - no other hotel view in Morocco compared. I loved waking up to the sounds of the Medina and the location was an easy walk to the blue gate and other major sites. Also even in the scorching heat, the tiles kept the room feeling comfortably cool. Like all other locations in the walled city, this location does require walking (no car access at the front door) which is part of the wonderful experience. Staff hear speak fluent English as well as many other languages.

Place was in a great spot, near the souk and some terrific restaurants. I would have scored the place higher but I left strict instructions not to clean up or go into my room and they kept doing so despite me reiterating the point. The young fellow on the desk was really caring and helpful.

Great breakfast and staff. The rooftop was fabulous offering great views over the rooftops and the general panarama of fes. Breakfast up here was excellent, both due to the view and the generous food offerings, although more coffee would be appreciated (only enough for 2 small cups, but it was so delicious). Narrow steep stairs to the different rooms was a problem for anyone with health issues. No tv for entertainent but certainly not needed.

Palace riad, friendly, I'm now a time traveler
Pretty mind-blowing in terms of interior architecture. Felt like a palace. Our room was large and beautiful. Quiet and safe, as usual in Morrocco. Fes was the highlight of our entire trip -- you must see the ancient medina here, feels like time travelling. Soltan was a very good friend to us during our stay, and he has a kind heart. You WILL get lost in the Medina, the riad is *impossible* to find on your own, so either write to the Riad beforehand, or just accept one of the guides that will come to you as you look around confused, but agree on a price before the guide starts and stay firm. Although the medina is confusing, there are lots of helpful people who will not charge for their help if you seek them out, especially the grocery store owners and such. It is also very safe.

Beautiful place to stay, lovely terrace with the view where they would also bring you breakfast in the morning. BB is not big for my taste, but good quality and fresh. Hosts are very welcoming and pleasant people. The property is located in the middle of Fes Medina and is within walking distance from major tourist attractions. The only downside of staying at Dars is the noise level from other rooms - nothing earplugs can't fix

Nice cozy room with comfy bed in the Medina. Nice traditional interior design of the hotel. Okay breakfast If you are checking in late you have to arrange beforehand with them, and someone walks you to the hotel (I think because the area is not quite safe at night after the shops close and the hotel doesn’t have a clear sign).

Beautiful hotel with outstanding hospitality
Like many buildings in Fes, Dar El Ouedghiri is a discreet looking building outside but a stunning gem inside! The lobby was the most stunning I have seen, full of magnificent and colorful geometries, and the rooftop offers the best overview in Fes! The hosts were also super kind and accommodating to my early hours for breakfast and other needs. I would return here next time I'm in Fes

Beautiful Stay with Great Host
The Dar is well maintained with fine details. The host were really helpful and friendly. Our stay there was really comfortable. Our little daughter also enjoy the stay very much particularly the roof top terrace. I particularly love how every corner in the Dar is nice for photos. The daily housekeeping service provided is indeed making our stay even better. The home made breakfast save us the hassle for hunting for food to fill out stomach. Thank you Aziz & Lalla Fatimah!

Glad I extended our stay at Dar El Ouedghiri
Both the host and the manager Adil were amazing during our stay. The place is nice and clean and the location is convenient which is right inside the Medina - 5 mins walk to Blue Gate. Adil arranged some day trips for us and also arranged the taxi to the Fes airport for us when we left Fes for London. The price for both day-trips and the taxi were definitely more competitive (i.e. lower) than what you can get online. If you need any of these, I highly recommend you check with Adil. Overall, an excellent stay.

Our stay at the Riad was better than what we could have asked for. We greatly enjoyed our stay here as we visited the city. The room was beautiful and intimate and had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. The breakfast every morning was fantastic and the owners and staff were so nice and welcoming. They gave us recommendations on what to do and where to go and were always available to answer any questions we had. We definitely recommend staying here when visiting this beautiful city.

Pleasant Bed and Breakfast in the Medina
Adil immediately greeted us and assisted us back to the residence. The hotel is beautiful and recently remodeled. This is more of a bed and breakfast but the landlord is extremely helpful and a really good cook. It is also in the heart of the Medina and quiet once inside to relax. Amazing rooftop views and with Adils help made this a pleasant experience.

Fes is a maze when you are inside the Médina but this place is well worth making the effort to get in to the Médina and find. Adil was the most welcoming and genuine host that I have ever met and I have travelled a lot. The place is basic and clean however our room was beautifully decorated and for the price paid and the excellent service I can’t recommend this place enough. Adil you should be very proud of your riad and the service you provide 😃

Amazing Roof Top Terrace
Adil, our host, was fantastic! He met us outside the Medina and brought us to the accommodation. He also set us up with an amazing guide for a tour of the Medina. Breakfast was very good and in good weather is eaten on the top floor of the building with an amazing view of Fes. When we had an issue with the smell in the room Adil was very quick to respond and try to fix it. Unfortunately it was coming from the pipes and proved difficult to fully eliminate.
