A subtle mix of Andalusian sumptuousness and Moroccan art de vivre, the Riad Fès reflects its prestigious past and the refined civilisation to which it belongs. This majestic palace is an authentic example of Hispanic-Moorish architecture, boasting four harmoniously styled patios, sculpted doors and zelliges on the walls, stucco arcades and marble basins. It offers panoramic views of the magical spectacle of the sun rising over the Fès Medina, and the Atlas mountains. Hammams and massages, fountains, smoking-rooms, sophisticated cuisine and a trendy lounge bar: this is a world where traditions and contemporary conveniences combine delightfully.

Our commitments

When family culinary traditions have been passed down for generations, why not celebrate them with the people who know.
With this idea, the property opens itself up to cooks who have never set foot in a cooking school but have learnt everything from their mothers; a true marker of authentic cuisine. On arrival, they receive training to supplement their existing know-how and are taught to use products in their entirety, to eliminate waste. Each year, Michelin-starred chefs also choose to complete their training at the Riad Fès. Here, fruit and vegetables are all seasonal, sourced from a local sustainable farmer.

The Attarine Medersa

Art and history lovers will not want to miss a visit to the Attarine Medersa, located in the heart of Fès. Founded in 1325, this remarkable Koranic college was named after the perfume and spice souk, still adjacent. With its colorful ceramic tiles, finely chiseled stucco, white marble columns and decorated arches, it exudes beauty and serenity. The prayer room, with its carved cedar ceilings and richly decorated mihrab, is a true gem.

The medina of Fès

The medina of Fès embodies the essence of Moroccan craftsmanship. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it displays colorful ceramics, openwork metal lamps, embroidered caftans and hand-woven rugs in the labyrinth of its lively alleys and souks. Among the historical monuments, the University of Al Quaraouiyine and the Bou Inania Medersa illustrate its rich cultural heritage. Enjoy an authentic and unforgettable immersion in Moroccan architecture and culture.

The tanneries of Fès

The city’s tanneries are renowned for their open-air stone vats, where artisans prepare hides to be transformed into leather goods. The process begins by soaking the hides in lime basins to clean and soften them, and then dying them in vats of natural pigment, before drying in the sun. Visit these unique places to discover this ancestral savoir-faire, just one of the many facets of Morocco's rich artisanal heritage.
