sophie
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans ce magnifique Riad. Le personnel est tellement attentionné ( Hasan, yusuf et Khadya et tout les autres membres de l’établissement). Ce fut un séjour parfait!
Adele
The staff was more than accommodating. They communicated with us before our arrival and booked one of the best tour guides we have ever had: Momo! They were able to book a last minute hammam for us as well and made a dinner reservation on our arrival. Very attentive and quiet location.
Sherif
Amazing place ! Hassan and Yousef were amazing people that the Riad is lucky to have. Cannot recommend highly enough. Large rooms, with amazing decor and finishes.
Nancy
Abdul and Hassan were very attentive and accommodating with every request. The room was private, tranquil and immaculate.
YVES
Staff is responsive, units are comfortable and quiet and spacious with a large bathroom.
The location in the Medina is convenient for shopping and sightseeing but it is a 15 min walk to reach any transportation whence the need for a luggage cart and handler.
Most annoying the very unreliable and weak wifi signal to the internet.

Filip
The Riad is beautiful, traditional. The staff (Hassan and others) were extremely attentive. They even put together a care package for us since we needed to leave early in the morning. This is a quiet Riad in a residential part of the Medina but very close to everything the Medina offers. The food was delicious (although this is not a Riad with a proper restaurant and does not have a bar). Comfortable beds and good water pressure! Highly recommended.
Dariana
It was my first time in Morocco and in Africa. I arrived late at night feeling very disoriented everything was so different that I even thought about flying back to Canada 😅.
Thankfully, Yusuf at reception was incredibly reassuring. He saw I was panicking and told me to take the night to process everything, and he checked in on me. Siham, the manager, gave me helpful tips (like taxi prices) and made sure I was safely picked up from the airport to the riad in the medina.
I did get overcharged by a guide which can happen as a tourist but Siham helped me recover the money. Yusuf, Hassan, and Abdel were all friendly and attentive. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and would book again just for the staff.
As for the riad itself, the pictures reflect reality no hidden surprises. It was clean, and while I usually prefer modern white interiors, I wanted an authentic riad experience and this delivered.
Breakfast was generous, and they easily accommodated my lactose intolerance and adjusted portions. Everything is tailored to your needs. Yusuf even packed me breakfast for my early departure
If you’re considering booking this riad, I would recommend it. Just keep in mind that it is located in one of the oldest medinas, so manage your expectations it’s not Casablanca or Rabat. I hope this helps!

You have to keep in mind that the property is over 100 years old. It was a bit dusty and not as clean as we usually book - this did not appear to be neglect of property just fact it is really old. The bathroom had a sewer smell all the time that the staff “helped” with scented candles. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If you want to experience a traditional very old Riad then this will work. It’s hard to find in the Medina ( but everything is) BUT the Riad will send a porter to find you and bring you in. They arranged a traditional hammam for me and it was an amazing experience. In the end we chalked it up to adventure and embraced the experience.
Jennifer
The staff could not have been nicer and more attentive to our needs. They gave great recommendations and make tremendous mint tea!!
Fereshteh
Beautiful rooms and amazing staff. Calm and quiet, in a great central location. 5-star experience.
Jay
What an amazing experience in Fes. From the moment we stepped into the Riad, the warm welcome and friendly service was unparalleled to any other Riad or Hotel we stayed at on this trip. The manager greeted us personally and every staff member was willing to take care of all elements of our trip, from booking taxis, making restaurant recommendations, luggage service and serving breakfast. We were there in the off season, so it was a little quieter, however that didn’t interfere with the experience of staying here. Would absolutely recommend and will stay here again next time I’m in Fes. Special thanks to Hassan, Mouad and Siham for showing us exceptional hospitality.
Jeffrey
The staff was awesome, especially Hassan. Very friendly and helpful
Louis

The property is lovely and in a great location. Our room was clean and extremely comfortable and the plunge pool was refreshing. Both Younes and Khadiga were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Fes.

Beautiful, traditional Riad in the Medina. It’s a little chaotic outside, but once you walk in, serene. Staff was fabulous and helpful during our stay.
NY
Stunning riad with really professional and helpful staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast on the terrace was lovely, and our room was beautiful and very comfortable. The staff helped us book a private taxi on the last day and also helped us with our luggage as we had to walk a distance out to access the main road. Accessibility is probably the only downside as you have to walk around 10 minutes from the main road to get to the property.
Marion
Beautiful property, great location, warm and welcoming staff.
Emily
Beautiful well-located Riad in the Fes Medina
Beautiful Riad in the heart of the Medina, well located and walkable to all parts of the Medina. Riad is beautifully restored, and they are in the process of adding new luxury suites and a pool that will be lovely. The staff was wonderful, helpful and accommodating for anything we needed. They arranged for us a walking tour of the Medina which was so necessary for us to get a good sense of the maze-like alleys and showing us things we never would have found on our own. They also arranged for seamless pickup from the train station to the Riad. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, highly recommend!
Joan
Ahmed and his staff were so gracious and helpful. They made our visit to Fes easy to navigate and memorable. Thank you for such a warm welcome and all the assistance you provided.
Nicole
Good location inside the Medina. The staff was very friendly. The room and bathroom were okay, a little dated and dark. The shower was a little strange. It definitely could use better lighting. Breakfast was traditional Moroccan pastries and juice.
VASSILIOS
Very nice property area not good unsafe
Alexandra
The staff made our experience go from great to excellent! They packed us to-go breakfasts when we had an early tour and went out of their way to find us a new ride when ours cancelled at the last minute. The shower head had good pressure but did not spray out well, but otherwise, it was clean and smelled wonderful every time we came back at the end of the day!
Louisa
We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Loved every minute, the staff were excellent, the rooms beautiful, the area very convenient. Thank you
Christopher
This Riad tucked inside the Medina is an oasis of calm and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets.
The staff were super friendly and helpful and catered to our every need, from arranging a porter to get us and our luggage to the Riad initially to putting us on beautiful rooms and bringing breakfast up to the roof terrace each day.
We had a wonderful stay, only thing to note, much of the businesses in the Medina do not open on a Friday, so we were glad we had time before Friday to experience it, as Friday was a very quiet day.

Best stay I’ve had in Morocco, ever!
This was an absolutely incredible place to stay. It was clean, cozy, and beautiful, and the rooms all had AC and were so comfy. Even the body wash was scented with local orange blossom.
The staff were all so warm and so welcoming - we felt right at home the entire time and were so sad to say goodbye to them all! They were kind and helpful and always smiling.
I would come here again in a heartbeat!

Great riad!
Lovely riad in the heart of the Medina-family owned and operated with a wonderful staff who literally walked us all over the city.
Food was excellent and the rooms were spacious and clean.
Will return.

A few problems the first night with hot water but were immediately upgraded to a better room with no problems first thing in the morning. Prompt action by management was much appreciated .

Good but not sure about next time
Team was welcoming and very attentive and friendly. Located not far from the local Hugh market. This riad is quite far from the road and taxis and
Located in an unpleasant place during night and dark hours can be quite intermediating

Thanks to the host of the riad Algilà I had a fantastic time . They made my first visit there a breeze . The riad is easily accessible, clean , nice rooftop, good food . First day there was a problem with the AC but they quickly handle the problem with care . The staff was knowledgeable about what to do where to go eat and other questions . I would definitely go back there .
Chenyao
We stayed at Algila Fes Riad for two nights and enjoyed our time here. We were welcomed with Moroccan mint tea /some cookies, and all staffs were super nice and helpful. Shout out to Ahmed, who helped explain custom, history, and religion to us! We def loved chatting with him and learning about Moroccan culture. Breakfast was delicious and hearty too.
mohamed
Fantastic magical place. Breakfast on the rooftop is to die for. My younger son loved and still talks about the orange juice even after 2 years.

Absolutely amazing staff and riad - we loved every minute of it and we felt like we were treated like family. Highly recommend!!
MichaelS.
It's a beautiful place and the young woman who greeted and helped us was amazing as were all the staff. The only wrinkle in the stay was they hooked us up with a guide who talked too fast, too much and was only interested in rail roading us into various shops to buy stuff we didn't want, but I guess all the guides do that and it shouldn't be a reflection on the Riad. Still...it was not a great experience (the tour, not the Riad. The Riad was great. )
Verified traveler
A wonderful Riad!
We had an amazing stay. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful and made an ongoing effort to make our stay memorable. The breakfast was very good.
Verified traveler
A great Riad - a house rather than a purpose built hotel, with very helpful and friendly staff. A good location in the old city - deep among the warren of small streets and alleyways. As with anywhere in Fes El Bali there is a lot of walking, but that wandering and exploring is part of the charm of the city.
The Riad will happily arrange a tour and any other trips you want - a walking tour of the city is a good place to orientate yourself, though you'll wonder how you will find anywhere you see again.

Architecture is amazing. Would highly recommend anyone coming to Morocco to make a stop by Fes, and make sure you stay in a Riad within the Medina. Algila makes you feel like you're stepping back into time.

AMAZING! FABULOUS IN FES!!
AMAZING!!!! Everything about the Algila Fes is AMAZING! From the staff to the accommodations themselves! The staff will help you coordinate your visit ahead of time, which is such a huge help. The Riad is GORGEOUS, and yet feels like home in the best way. From the moment you arrive you are taken care of. The beds and linens are also SUPER COMFY, we had a three twin room and each of us were surprised how much we loved our beds! The guide they arranged for us to tour the Medina was awesome (ask for Hassan), and Fatima and the staff are wonderful. We were also lucky enough to meet the owner and he was so incredible! The place is stunning and Fes is such a lovely town and welcoming to tourists. The meals are also fantastic! Some of our fave meals in all of Morocco! DO NOT HESITATE to book Alglia Fes! It fills up FAST and you will miss a wonderful experience! I look forward to coming back! Thank you Algila Fes team!

An amazing riad in the Medina of Fes
We had no idea what staying at a \"riad\" in the Medina meant but wanted to try. After reading the reviews, Anglia Fes was the right choice.
From their hospitality to the ultra clean and relaxing accommodations, Algila was great. The breakfast was also fantastic.
Have your driver call before arriving and someone will meet you at the drop off and guide you to the riad. We almost didn't book because of some of the whiney reviews about having to walk in to get there. But once you see it and understand what a Medina is, you'll appreciate it.
We can't wait to go back and wish we could have stayed longer. Couple this with a tour from \"Around Fez\" with Mohammed and you have a stay in the Medina you won't forget.

It is a beautiful Riad
Well situated in the middle of the Riad.
The staff are very helpful and kind especially Sultan
The only thing I would say is our room was very dark
And there was not enough light during the day or night

Some of the nicest and accommodating staff at this riad! They prepared us an early breakfast on the day of our departure, given our early morning check-out. Beautifully decorated common spaces.

Beautiful riad with amazing staff. We highly recommend this riad for your stay in Fes. They are well located with restaurants and shops close by. The riad is very charming with large and beautifully decorated rooms. What makes this riad really outstanding is the friendly staff. They go well beyond and above in assisting their guests. They answered multiple emails very promptly and helped with transfers, guides, restaurants, etc. We felt at home immediately and it was hard to leave...

very rude management
very disappointing experience with the management of this place, we paid for 3 night and we ended up staying at the Marriott,
I will not recommend this place especially if you have to div your credit card information.

Gem in the medina of Fez
We stayed here 2 nights. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. The riad was beautifully decorated. The breakfast was good. We had dinner on the roof / terrace one night and it was very good. Houda and Abdul went out of their way to take care of us. Abdul even took my pants to be altered. They also packed breakfast for us on the day of our departure as we had to leave very early. We felt more like true guests instead of customers. I would highly recommend.

FILTHY
Zero, the neighbourhood was filled with trash, feral cats and loud citizens partying with piles of garbage around every corner and no street lighting. staff were not willing to arrange transport to find dinner or let us know what was open late, or locate an appropriate guide.
Don
Exceptionally Helpful Staff and Beautiful Riad
The staff and especially the manager of This wonderful Riad could not have been more helpful in accommodating one of our group's mobility issues. They went out of their way in every respect. I highly recommend this Riad for anyone visiting Fez and looking for that specialized personal touch.
Hannah
Wonderful staff at a beautiful riad!
From booking through to check out, the staff was fantastic - special shout out to Fatima and Abdul!! Amazingly beautiful riad, city, and people.
The staff took the time to contact me in advance of our arrival to check if I had any needs. They help to arrange a private transport from the train station as well as a private guide. Both very reasonable and the guide was a must-have since we visited on Friday (holy day) and a majority of the stores were closed - yet we still saw a lot and had an awesome time.
If I return to Fes (and I wish to), I would book Algila Fes again!

We enjoyed our stay at Algila Fes and would be happy to stay here again! The staff are great at communication, personable, and super helpful. We highly appreciate that they arranged a tour of the medina and a private car to Chefchaouen for us. The rooms are comfortable and clean. We would encourage any travelers to stay here!

Beautiful hotel, in the heart of the Medina
Excellent riad that feels like a beautifully restored ancient building. The staff makes sure you are in great comfort and make a big effort to accommodate your needs. Please take into account that the hotel is about a ten minute walk from the closest road so if you have mobility issues, this may be challenging. Also, since it's an old house, it does not have an elevator but they do have rooms on the floor level.
Breakfast, which in our case was included, was excellent and cooked on demand.

Not as nice as looked in the pictures. Breakfast OK but not amazing. Dinner at 25euro each was only soup, small tagine and chocolate cake with sprinkles. Not the normal Moroccan plenty - no salads or grains. No beer or alcohol but you can bring your own in.

A great little hotel.
A wonderfully friendly and accommodating hotel where we were made to feel welcome and where nothing was too much trouble. Such a relaxing place in a fascinating area.
Yousef
Worst location ever.
I booked 6 nights at this hotel and read all the information provided to us on expedia. They forgot to mention the fact that 1 no cars could reach the hotel because the roads where too narrow so if you have bags good luck walking uphill with them. 2 the street that took us to the hotel had no lights so have fun sleeping early at night. 3 the hotel is not in walking distance of any amenities and I mean nothing. I decided to leave the hotel and booked another one for my stay. I explained to the hotel manager that there was missing information on expedia and I asked for my money back which I got non of. Worst experience ever.

Lovely staff, but room/neighborhood not ideal
In terms of service, cleanliness, etc. this is a great hotel. But a few things I'd warn those considering a booking that I wish I had known ahead of time. The location is very difficult to navigate. We live in a big city so dealing with an urban environment is not an issue. But things in the area close pretty early and you'll find very little foot traffic coming back around 10pm. There will however, be many groups or pairs of young men who will aggressively insist on helping you find your way. We experienced a similar sort of thing while in Marrakech. There however we merely found it annoying whereas here we were downright nervous at times. If you're the sort of traveler that will want to be out late for dinners and going to bars I'd recommend staying in a different neighborhood like the Ville Nouvelle and just visiting the old section during the day. You won't miss anything here at night. And as far as the room itself, it was definitely not ideal. We had no exterior window so there is no natural light or fresh air. And the entire length of one side of the room lines a hall/interior courtyard area--this includes the bathroom. There is a big \"window\" and glass French doors so it affords no sound proofing aside from heavy curtains and stained glass shutters. The lack of privacy was a huge disappointment.

Great service. The staff were super friendly. We told them we had to leave early on the last day and didn't have time for breakfast. So they packed the breakfast for us before we left.

Lovely staff
Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Houda (manager) especially was lovely. This hotel has a traditional Moroccan theme and is a little quirky. However, it does provide all modern services and has a pleasant roof top space for breakfast.

Hidden gem in Fes
Love everything in algila - the riad design, location of the riad, breakfast/dinner, staffs and their service. Our stay is truly amazing. They even helped us to get the bus ticket in advance (which save our time) which is extremely thoughtful. I would highly recommend everyone to stay there.

Enchanting!
Enchanting! A lovely Riad in the heart of the Medina with incredible staff who enriched our memories of Fes. Neat rooms and clean, functioning and well stocked bathrooms are a reflection of the pride they take in everything they do. Right from the moment we were picked up by the driver Norten every morning for our daily excursions, to the welcoming demeanour of Yolanda, Fatima and Aziz at the hotel who all willingly shared their knowledge and experiences in Fes with us to make our stay comfortable. Thoughtfulness would be an understatement if we had to define the way we were looked after by them. Yunus and Mohammed served us and helped us with a smile whenever needed and were supported by a wonderful cook who worked quietly behind the scenes to cook up a brilliant welcome dinner and a heartfelt breakfast each morning! We recommend this Riad if you want a homely but high quality experience away from the more commercial, luxury Riads that are available in Fes.

We came off a desert trip and found the place very comfortable and helpful when one of our party was slightly under weather. They helped us fine guides and places to eat. Very informative of Fes and how to get around.

Breakfast was good every day and included a mix of European and Moroccan style but didn't try the lunch or dinner.
The room was clean and comfortable with bath robes and slippers :)

Overrated
This Riad overrated and average at best. The staff was nice and helpful but service was slow. Our room was long and narrow. The shower in our room didn't drain properly. The room had a musty smell which they try to hide with infuser. This combination actually triggered my allergies. The tour guide arranged by the Riad was horrible and a waste of time taking us to the typical tourist traps. What i didn't appreciate was the owner telling us to give the Riad great reviews and if we didn't have anything nice to say don't review them. I wonder how many have refused to give an honest opinion based on that.

3 Magical days in Fes
We stayed three days in Agila Fes in the Medina which allowed us to wander the old streets of Fes. The manager arranged a tour of the Medina, massages, a hammam visit, and dinner meeting my Gluten-Free needs in the area. The porter met us at the parking area (no cars are allowed in the Medina) and returned us there at the end of our stay. We were welcome to use the variety of Riad sitting areas and the roof terrace, even though we were off-season.

Excellent staff
Centrally located in the old Medina, everything within walking distance. The staff was very nice and welcoming, really made me feel comfortable, helped me with all my questions with a smile, on the top of that they are multilingual. Dinner was delicious, prepared just like home made. This Riad has the charm of Morocco with nice architectural detail that I was looking for. My bed was very comfortable, very good size room, and a nice bathroom. My only critic is about the breakfast, but that goes for any Riad I stayed in Morocco. Breakfast is heavy on carbs, and sweet. I think adding some fruits or eggs would make it better.

Very nice hotel And staff
Excellent staff and very helpful and welcoming attitude. Iolanda was very friendly, the hotel prepared us soup as we arrived late at night. Airport pick up service is very convenient (20 euros). They also give you gifts as you leave which is very sweet.
The only little comment I would have to say is that the rooms can be quite dark despite the lighting. And that's due to the fact that old medina buildings don't have outside facing windows.
Also, the old masons being like a maze, it can be tricky to find your way back to the hotel after a long day of going round Fez.
But all in all, lovely people and enjoyable and cosy hotel stay.

The Perfect Riad inside the Fes Medina
When we arrived just outside the Medina the hotel sent a porter to meet us to help with our bags and show us to the hotel. When our family arrived it was just lovely. They served us a wonderful lunch complete with traditional salads, biscuits and breads all made on the premises. Fatima the receptionist was just wonderful as she organized the perfect guide for our family to tour the Medina. We are a family of 4 and Fatima moved us to section of the Riad with connecting rooms. The girls could have their space and we could have some quiet time. The Rooftop Terrace is a beautiful place to relax and sip some Moroccan tea. My daughters loved the Riad and the cultural experience. Fatima ( during the day) and Mohamed ( in the evening) helped make our stay very enjoyable. Honestly it was one of our highlights of Morroco. We were very sad to leave and we hope to return.

Hidden Gem in Fes
This place was absolutely fantastic. Upon arrival, you wind through the back alleys and streets of Fes for a few minutes and are then guided into this beautiful riad. We were welcomed with great hospitality by Adam the hotel receptionist and his service was just first rate. He told us everything we needed to know and guided us as to where to eat proper clean Moroccan food for the evening. Overall, the room was just lovely. Perfectly clean and everything in order. Shower was good and amenities excellent. Highly recommended, especially to foreign travellers.

Charming, impeccable, super location
I've been to Fez three times now, always at the Algila. It's a great 3-5 day junket from Europe for shopping, food, nosing about and a scrub at a hammam. Very cute little hotel, walk to everything plus not far from car access for day-trips, staff can organize anything. Easily the best deal in town price-wise.
