Riad Sabah

Can only say this hotel was good in every way

I had an outstanding experience at Riad Sabah. Miriam greeted me right away at the door and I was served tea in a beautifully tiled area adjacent to the courtyard pool while she got me checked in. After the stress of traveling, this was so much appreciated! I was shown my room (a solitaire), which was beautifully decorated and air conditioned. I asked if I could book an appointment in the hammam, which she set up for 4:00. I did a 30 minute scrub and a 30 minute massage for $35. The person at the hammam was highly attentive. Miriam also arranged for a walking tour of Fez ($35) for 10:00 the next morning. My tour guide took me all over city, including to see the Jewish quarter where I got to see inside the ancient synagogue (25 dirhams for the ticket), and even was showed an ancient torah. I also got a tour of a ceramic/tile artisan workshop. In the old medina I got to visit the tannery and see the inside of a shop in a dar with enormous beautiful rugs. Miriam arranged for my taxi to the airport and she even allowed for my bill to be split into part cash and part credit card so that I didn't have to change any money back into dollars. I went swimming in the pool twice (the colored lights at night are nothing short of magic!) and enjoyed breakfast poolside--the best breakfast I have had in Morocco. The Riad is located on a deadend street which means very peaceful sleeping, but it's only a five minute walk from several different entrances to the Medina. I could not recommend this experience more highly. Booking directly through the website or by calling will save you more than 50% as opposed to going through a booking website such as ***********.

Hacan was absolutely wonderful; we arrived around midnight and starving. He got us a whole chicken dinner with olives, gravy, fries, bread etc. Best chicken I ever ate. Next day him and his wife showed us the Riad and shared history of the home. Both were super helpful and wonderful people. I am proud to say I have friends in Rabat. We are planning to stay again in the spring. If I could give them more stars I would!!!

Beautiful property and great service! All the staff were very kind and helpfull.

This is by far the best hotel I stayed in while in Morocco. It’s difficult to find as it’s in the Medina. It is however such a wonderful place with very helpful staff. I will definitely go there again and will recommend

The staff was amazing! We will definitely stay again!

Riad Sabah is a sanctuary from the busy-ness of Fes, tucked away but still close. I had a very pleasant stay here in a single room with all the amenities I needed. The staff are attentive, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and was a great start to the day, with a fruit salad, yoghurt, breads and conserves. I had a private hammam on site which was arranged within a couple of hours (has to be pre-heated) and was excellent.
