Built in the 1930s in a Moroccan-Andalucian style, Riad Fes is the largest and smartest of converted riads in the city, actually enclosing two grand houses.
The finest craftsmanship tradition underlines the astonishing attention to detail running throughout the hotel’s design. Every square inch of this traditional riad is stamped with the hallmarks of Morocco’s exquisite art and design heritage.
The two self-contained houses have distinct design aesthetics. Grand and traditional, the old riad invites guests to travel back in time: in an Alhambra-style courtyard, where the arched stucco doorways and sweeping pillars seem to glow with natural light, in Baroque design details, in Moorish art, antique pieces, and luxurious contemporary furnishings.
The palatial two-story court, furnished with red sofas and a grand piano, is at the center of the old riad. Decorated with a gorgeous stuccowork, its massive columns rise to the translucent roof. Historical opulence characterizes the rooms, featuring intricately carved furniture, mosaic, and heavy stained-glass.
A glass door leads to the second house, which could not have been more different. Crisp, sleek, chic: it’s a world of serene minimalism. The luxurious and spacious rooms follow suit.
This artful combination of classic and contemporary luxury works together to produce some of Fez’s finest places to stay.
