The staff were phenomenal - the owner was lovely, Latifa was incredibly friendly and helpful, the gentleman who ran the breakfast on some days was so kind. The breakfast was lovely and a fabulous start to the day. The riad itself is breathtaking and like being in a museum - it's gorgeous. Our room was one of the highlights of our trip!

Parking was a little difficult to figure out, until we called and spoke to Latifa directly. Hotels.com/expedia was not helpful figuring this out.

The secured parking lot that should be used is the following : https://share.google/8jnoB3bYX8dpLt4ZN. It's Bin Lamboun parking lot.

This place is highly recommended. Only disadvantage was the distance to the main strip of Fes - but we appreciated the walks through the medina everyday. You can't eat all that lamb tagine and not take a few steps to burn it off!

Gem in Fes

Service at the Riad was great. Special thanks to Latifa, Yousef and Abdou for making our stay so pleasant. Rooms were in great shape and had the little touches that showed great taste. For our departure Latifa and Dominique went out of their way to ensure our tour guide picked us up from the parking lot closest to the Riad. The location of the Riad is approximately 15-20 minutes away from the parking lot so getting to/from the Riad with luggage in tow is difficult and ended up being frustrating for us.
Overall beautiful Riad with a lovely rooftop.

The hospitality was outstanding. Loved the breakfasts and how the staff handled every our need. Excellent customer service. The irad itself is beautiful, inner courtyard and other non-guest rooms are like a museum! Very clean and beautifully decorated. The roof is amazing!

My only negatives would be about our room, I think we had the smallest one and it had little space to put out belongings, also, be aware that it's an old building and the bathroom doesn't ventilate. (Nor the toilet). But that's to be expected in any older building. However, I would think that bathroom needs a door, not a curtain (toilet does have a door), otherwise nothing in the room gets a chance to remain dry.

The meals are ridiculously pricey for basic and limited choice, more than 5 star restaurants. The toilet was not bolted down so it moved if you leaned over for toilet paper. Smelly plumbing. Tired, coarse towels.

No fridge in room, a no no in a hot place like Fes.

Fantastic Stay & Top 10 Meal of My Life!

Excellent place to stay. We were welcome immediately upon arrival with hot tea, and Younes was so friendly and accommodating. He helped set up dinner for that evening in the Riad, and it was the probably one of the 10 best meals I've ever had in my life: tagine chicken smothered in onions with roasted pear and apricot. IT. WAS. AMAZING. Younes also helped set up a guide to show us around Fes the following day, and his help was appreciated.

We loved the Riad, it is beautiful and such a fun place to stay. I actually stayed in the very room pictured here on the review. We had to cut our stay short by two days because our travel plans changed suddenly because of the corona virus and we needed to try to get back to the United States. The owner, Dominique, was helpful as we were trying to make last minute travel plans changes.

If you ever find yourself going to Fes, make sure to stay at Riad Kettani!

Fantastic hideaway

Situated right in the middle of the medina, Read Kettani is an oasis of tranquillity. Inaccessible by car, you are met by the excellent staff and escorted to the Road through a maze of alleyways - don't try to find the place on your own. Once inside all is calm: everything is tastefully decorated in traditional Moroccan style, and so much better than the anonymity of modern chain hotels. Everything nearby - the tanneries, madrassas, museums and souks - but be sure to take a map, and take advantage of your hosts local knowledge which they will gladly impart. And when you're done with the hustle and bustle, enjoy the views from the rooftop terrace.

Flexible and friendly staff, affordable price, filling delicious dinner selection, lockable door, sufficient amenities, great rooftop, so far this was the best stay during our 10 days trip in Morocco.
Especially at night, the medina goes a little sketchy for tourist, like you don't want to roam unnecessarily.
This riad worked as an oasis for us.
