    The riad is kinda hard to find, because Google maps and Maps me say it's in a different place, so it's best to use the offer of Juliet and Abdul to pick you up.

    Juliet and Abdul are the cutest hosts. They welcomed us like family, provided a gluten free breakfast for me and made us feel like we have a second home. The room was clean and they also had a nice rooftop terrace. We enjoyed our stay here.

    Initially I was concerned about the location but this quickly turned into a positive. It’ll be a 15-minute walk into the heart of the old medina but Dar Guennoun is very close to Bab Rcif and EVERYONE in Fes can tell you how to get home!

    I liked everything about Dar Guennoun! Juliet is a superb manager and adds those little details that raise a property from good to exceptional. Her staff do the same. A great breakfast on the roof terrace was the highlight of my day.

    Well-preserved and authentic Riad where you will feel right at home

    The host, Juliet, and her staff at this well-preserved Riad were outstanding on every level! It is very apparent how rude effort and pride is poured in to the guest experience. The rooms are perfectly immaculate and you are made to feel right at home. There is always someone there to help with directions or advice, which proved to be invaluable in a Medina that one can easily get lost in. We had a traditional breakfast spread each morning and treated ourselves to dinner at the Riad one night, which was some of the best tajine we had our entire trip! I can't say enough wonderful things about our stay and would definitely stay here if we ever visit Fes again!

    The food was excellent, the room was clean, quiet and had it’s privacy. The hosts were extremely kind, generous and helpful and made our first stay in Fez the best it could be by organising quad trips, numerous taxis and a guided tour of the medina. All in all we had such a wonderful stay, and everything was to like about the Dar Guennoun. I 100% recommended it to anyone who wants to discover Morocco and feel like homme once they are back at the Riad !

    Beautifully and lovingly restored and decorated house. Spacious rooms. My husband and I were staying in Abdul suite (free upgrade we've got when we arrived in Riad) and our daughter was staying in Sophia room. We were welcomed with tea and were given tour of the riad. As we were the only guests at the time we could select in which rooms to stay. Lovely breakfast was served on the roof terrace. And the highlight of our stay - we asked Abdul (the owner of the riad) for a traditional Moroccan meal and got dinner of 3 tagins served for us on the roof terrace. Meal was delicious. Special thanks for Salim and Zeinab who welcome us and taking care of us while we were staying in the riad. Riad is located in the Medina, but in a quiet spot, 5 min walk from the parking just outside of the Medina walls. You pretty much can see all of the Medina from the roof terrace. As all Moroccan houses it has narrow steep stairs, so if you are staying just for couple of nights, it makes no sense to get all your luggage to the riad - have couple of backpacks, so you can take whatever you need for the duration of your stay (I would recommend it for all places in Morocco if you stay in the Medina where you cannot park your car next to the house). Definitely will stay again there and recommend it.

    It is normal, just mentioned: you can sleep well with ear plug, due to the life on the street and early muezzin’s voice.

    As many Riad in the Medina, it is accessible only on foot. Fortunately a parking is located not too far and Abdul is available to meet the clients at the entrance of the old city.

    The owners (Abdul and Juliet) were very kind and thoughtful with us. The Riad is a beautiful nicely decorated traditional old house of Abdul's family, located very close to the Medina (five minutes on foot). The room was richly furnished in traditional style. The breakfast, served in the terrace at the top of the house, was really abundant.

    The hosts and staff were delightful, generous in their suggestions, made me feel part of a family. I got a free upgrade of room. The rooms are elegantly and richly decorated, with great care for the detail. Breakfast on the rooftop was rich and fresh, and the view never failed me, no matter the time of the day. The position, slightly off of the centre of the medina, is actually an asset, as it is easy to find (not at all a small thing in Fes!) and very close to a cab station. The hosts arranged for an official guide to walk me around in the Medina, which was an excellent experience (ask for Rachid).
