It was a bit hard to get to. And there was also obstacles along the way (the locals) trying to confuse or get some tips out of you. I suggest you follow the sign that says RCIF RIAD until you reach an open space and then make 2 left turns while following the meandering path.

It was value for money. The host was very friendly and helpful. It can be quite difficult to get to. He tried to make me feel as safe as possible.

It really is impossible to find it on your own as Google Maps don't show many of the small dead end streets, including this one. However, this is the case with all the accommodation in the maze of the Medina and luclily the host is here to show you the way.

I loved everything about this riad: the bed was comfy, I had a private bathroom, the room had an electric heater, there was a nice breakfast and the host was helpful and kind. And then there's s the beautiful traditional common room. All in all, a wonderful experience.

Difficult to find even you are already living here and go out for a walk

Comfortable, with good hot water and heater.

It was a struggle when I tried to reach the riad on my own. The Fès medina takes some effort for one to get around. The riad was discreetly run and not advertised or with signs posted in street corners like some other riads do. But once I found the riad no more issues for me to get in, get out and get around in the medina (and back to the riad).

The husband and wife team staff is great! The riad is quiet. WiFi worked for me wonderfully.

Stayed in January 2025

The riad is very hidden, but they offer a pickup service, take it!!! You will not find the riad if you are not familiar with this area. You can't rely on Google Maps in this medina.

Very friendly people who run the hostel. They will always try to help you.

The pillow doesn't smell fresh, not breakfast, the way of payment for accommodation is made.

Fatima made me tea, because it was so cold in Riad and talked with me lovely. Younes was also helpful

There's nothing I didn't like.

Omg the architecture of this rijad blew me away. It's about 500 years old & has many original features. Just breath taking. The staff couldn't have done more to accommodate me. I'm a solo traveller & they escorted me to & from restaurants on request with no fee. They left me alone but always made sure I was doing OK. They supplied a great guide for me for me for the day. The breakfast was all freshly brought. The biligual staff were really friendly & very down to earth. I liked everything. Even the bed was massively comfortable. Plus there was constant hot water. Great location in the medina too.

Stayed in November 2024

There was no hot water during the stay, however, I didn't mind and didn't ask them what was the issue. Probably if I asked they would fix it. Shampoo and shower gel don't come either, however, if you ask them they would give you. Also, there are many small shops in the streets of medina and in every you can get small ketchup-sized shampoo and shower gel packages.

Overall amazing experience. Everyday breakfast at the riad was one of the things that made this stay authentic and great. Younis and Fatima's hospitality is on whole another level and I felt literally like home. I had some tours/trips booked in advance with other agencies and they helped me to navigate medina (the old town) to get to the meeting place since Google Maps barely works and it's like a labyrinth so this was amazingly helpful. Roof of the riad is something you should not miss since the views during sunrise and sunset at so good! During the night it was so quiet I think I didn't "feel" that quietness ever in my life. Some of the reviews say it is hard to reach it and find it, however, it is easily reached from Place R'cif (tell taxi to leave you there). However, in any case, I would recommend you to ask through Booking messages in advance for them to meet you at Place R'cif and lead you to the riad for the first time. P.S When coming back to the riad, you might get approached by random people wanting to "help you" (and ask for some money in the end) to find the place where are you going, because this riad is located in not that touristic and more local Moroccan family place, just tell them that you know where are you going and that you don't need help. I ended up having a few quality conversation with some of them and they didn't get any money from me, of course!

There should be furniture on their amazing roof top with one of the best views in Fes.

It is such a beautiful road. Roof top is amazing with unique views. They came to pick me up at a safe and easy to find location.

The place might be not easy to find at first, especially in the evening. But once the host showed me the way, it turned out to be totally fine.

I met a very friendly and welcoming family. I had a big room, comfortable bed and nice breakfast.

The "Large Twin Room" was rather small corridor shaped room with low ceiling.

Nice, clean, quiet, safe Riad. Excellent wifi for online work / meetings. Brilliant breakfast. Easy full ten points for the lovely hosts.

I’m the only one who stay in the property. Despite of the lack of english, they treat me so well. I felt like i’m stayed at a distant relative’s house.

A wonderful stay in the heart of the Fès medina. I would absolutely recommend it if you're looking for a true family riad in the city.

Stayed in April 2024

The host was very accommodating, kind & we had a nice homemade breakfast each morning! The Riad is not big but very comfortable!

- it’s in the middle of the Medina where it can be hard to find, but if you are good with remembering streets, it shouldn’t be a problem. - uncomfortable bed/matras - if you prefer a relaxed place, don’t choose this, because once you put one step outside, there will be immediately kids outside trying to ‘show you around’ but eventually in the end, they ask money from you.

- Friendly staff, they are helpful.

I had a great time at the Riad. The staffs were really nice and very helpful. The breakfast, the room, everything was fantastic.

Really good and affordable hostel with an awesome panoramic view over the medina. The staff is very nice. I came here for the second time and plan to stay here again when I will come back to Fez

The bathroom could be better

The staff was very nice and helpful. The atmosphere of the riad was authentic

Stayed in May 2023

Unfortunately, the staff spoke to me almost exclusively in gestures (which is strange, because I know enough French, Spanish, and even a little Darija). Also it is not easy to find the riyad on your own, even if you walk from Bab Rcif. Also, obviously, the idea of coming to Fez during Ramadan was not the best: you have to talk in whispers during the day because everyone is asleep, you can only smoke on the roof, etc.

Wonderful very beautiful Riyadh in Fez, traditional style -- high ceilings, zellige on the floor in the room and everywhere, etc., etc.

It's a little hard to find on your own, if arriving from Fes Airport I recommend you let Riad Mikou organise a shuttle taxi for you so you can be taken there the first time....

Good family run Riad, quiet and friendly, Younes is always on hand to help with anything you need. And please treat yourself to a home cooked meal here, Fatima is a fantastic cook and her food should not be missed. If you like, Fatima is happy to teach you how to cook Moroccan food in the Riad's Kitchen. Once you have your bearings it's a good place to stay in the quieter part of the Medina, near place Ricif.
