Hotel & Spa Dar Bensouda
N°14 Zkak El Bghel, Quettanine, Fes El Bali, 30000 Fez, Morocco – Great location - show map
We toured Morocco for 7 days so far and this was the most beautiful one we stayed at Facilities incredibly beautiful and clean. The staff makes you feel welcome and makes your visit feel private and special. Their terrace is top for relaxing/taking pictures. Breakfast buffet but super fresh and they make you an omelette on request. You eat your breakfast in the pool area which is so nice. Room comfortable, very clean and modern, amazing shower. Located just outside of the Medina but they can help you get your luggage there (be sure to coordinate this ahead of time as it's an 8 min walk from the parking). They can also coordinate a tour for you with a guide which is really the only way to find your way in the Medina and understand the city.

Decoration / Aroma / Bedding / Cleaning is perfect This is a very good choice to stay in Fes If you drive to the hotel you should contact the Riad before How to park and How much to pay to avoid any scammer

Gorgeous Riad, beautiful rooftop view of the city. close to everything yet far enough away to have some quiet. The staff and service is impeccable and friendly. It was a fabulous place to end our 2+ weeks in Morocco!

Everything was so amazing here. It was truly beyond words in terms of beauty and still so incredibly comfortable.

We loved this place. Beautiful vaulted ceilings, Yasin the host was amazing, the Riad was very quiet and comfortable; we loved it.

Walking into the soaring central garden of this riad is a stunning experience with its incredible period architectural decoration. The worn, dusty courtyard floor tiles were a little off-putting until we were given a tour of this historic, beautifully restored guesthouse. What an amazing place! The many public spaces (courtyards, terraces) were lovely, and the rooms were thoughtfully appointed in keeping with Fes tradition. We felt fortunate to stay in the home of the scholar Ben Souda.

From the beginning, the manager made us feel at home by arranging pick up from parking and luggage transport. The moment we stepped into the Riad, it was as if stepping into an oasis in the middle of the bustling medina - the renovated historical building was stunningly beautiful. The view from the rooftop for both sunrise and sunset was perfect. In the winter afternoon, the rooftop is also the perfect place to find peace in the otherwise busy Fes medina. The room itself was tastefully decorated and very spacious with traditional decor and modern amenities. Finally the food! The dinner we had was the best Tajines we had in Morocco - one was stuffed squid and the other was tripe. Do not miss out on the dinner there!

the riad was gorgeous, the staff was welcoming and helpful. They were able to hire a driver for us with late notice. It was so helpful having a Porter guide us from the train station!

A stellar retreat within the huddle of the Medina. The beautiful environs of the well appointed (yet ancient) house come across in all of your senses. In particular the manager - Yassine - went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and easy. We enjoyed the fruits of his hard work and easygoing helpful manner. We would highly recommend this place!

Great staff. Shoutout to Mamadu who was very helpful both in the reception desk and restaurant areas. We love the high ceilings and very spacious areas everywhere. Minimal design theme, but plenty of lounge areas; there is lounge in our suite, outside our room and common lounges downstairs. It has a restaurant that serves dinner.
