Riad Laaroussa

The experience we had at another Riad set very, very high expectations, so read this with that in mind :) I've worked and stayed in luxury hotels around the world, and if you're looking for a stunning hotel, with pleasant service this would be a top choice. However overall we were looking for more of an intimate experience. Staff were very nice; they were young, friendly, kind and caring. Travelling with my mother however, it felt very uncomfortable when I was asked 'how my wife was doing?!', this summed up the disconnection between the hotel and the experience. A beautiful hotel but short of a 4/5 star experience. It is one of the most stunning Riads you will stay at. The restaurant serves great food, and the views are amazing - if you can handle the three floors of steep steps. Overall, you won't be disappointed but it felt like when we stayed there was no manager for those extra touches you expect when paying this much.

Our two nights at Riad Laaroussa were perfect. We received a warm greeting with mint tea and cookies in their stunning courtyard. Our room was large with a very comfortable bed, large bathroom, and the entire room was well appointed with thoughtful touches and beautiful decor. They offered purified water rather than plastic bottles and were very cognizant of the environmental impact of tourism. We ate our first night in their rooftop restaurant. The lamb chops and lamb shank were excellent, as was the service. Everybody was kind, welcoming, and eager to make our stay the best it could be. Highly recommend to stay here to visit the Medina of Fez!

Beautiful riad, super helpful staff...perfect location for touring Fes Stayed in the Green Room, it was quiet and convenient. Dined on rooftop and service was fine, food also. Staff helped us with every request including getting a tour guide
