Wonderful Riad
We loved our stay. Clean, comfortable, Beautiful, excellent location. It was quite an a perfect place to relax after traveling the exciting streets and shops. Pool was beautiful but didn’t use it in Jan. They had an amazing breakfast and even provided gluten free treats for me on the second day (I have celiac disease). Would love to stay again if we ever get the opportunity to return for another visit.

What a beautiful place to stay. It was so tranquil. The staff were friendly and attentive. I almost didn’t want to go out it was so nice. I highly recommend it. Make sure you get a walking guide to the Riad when you enter the Medina and tip them well. You might get lost without one. WiFi isn’t good, but that’s just the way it is in the Medina. It’s not the Riad’s fault.

Beautiful riad in the Fes medina. You step inside the walls and you are in a tranquil garden paradise. Breakfast was delicious and relaxing - the perfect way to start the day. The room was very nice with plenty of space. I would recommend to anyone!

We stayed in over 7 properties during a 2 week trip. This was our favorite. The room was huge and stunningly decorated. The riad grounds were lush- I awoke every morning to a chorus of birds singing. Staff were so kind and attentive and the daily breakfast was delicious. It was a beautiful refuge from the busy medina. Highly recommend!

Riad Salama is a paradise in the heart of the Fes Medina. The pictures don't do it justice. Michel accommodated a late check-in and warmly welcomed us to the Riad as well as provided several great recommendations. The room felt like home, with a comfortable living area and private balcony overlooking the exquisite courtyard. The complimentary breakfast was served with the freshest of ingredients. Highly recommend a night in for dinner at the Riad- local cuisine with exquisite culinary presentation. While we were traveling as a couple, this Riad was also family appropriate because it was extremely quiet and had larger rooms for families. Not to mention the three friendly turtles that come out to sun in the morning.

Ryad Salama is a lovely Ryad on a quiet street, a couple of minutes walk from the main hustle and bustle of the Medina. Our room was very comfortable and spacious with an adjacent sitting area and a small balcony overlooking the common area. The common area is wonderful--open-air with lots of trees and a small swimming pool that was very refreshing after a hot day of sightseeing. The continental breakfast was delicious, and the wifi very reliable. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We would definitely stay there again.

Very nice and professional. The A/C worked really well, unlike other places in Morocco. After we checked out, I received an email stating that the cleaning lady found jewelry in our room, and they even mailed the jewelry to me in the US. Very honest and you just don’t encounter this very often. I’m very impressed and would definitely stay here again.

The most wonderful place to stay!
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!

A gem of a place
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.
