Riad Dar Ziryab

Nous avions vécu un moment magique ou 1 une nuit était égale à 1000 nuits. Le personnel est bienveillant aux petits soins, vous pouvez profiter des connaissances historiques du réceptionniste qui saura vous guider pour un très bon séjour à Fes. L'établissement est une merveille architecturale avec une décoration authentique que magnifique ou on peut ressentir l'âme du bien penseur accompagné d'une charmante piscine. Nous n'avions pas pris le temps de profiter de la nourriture qui doit être aussi bonne que l'endroit si ce n'est que le petit déjeuner qui était copieux et bon . Je reviendrai sans hésiter et le conseillerais à mon entourage.

El sitio es súper bonito, muy buena atención y muy buen servio. Recomendable 100%

The Riad building and grounds are in traditional Moroccan style and decor. Our room (Deluxe Suite) was quite spacious. We've stayed for 3 nights and our room was cleaned daily, bed linens and even the bathrobes were changed daily. This Riad is conveniently located in close proximity to a main street with many restaurants and cafes. That is all for the positive side. On the negative side: The breakfast quality is terrible. Waiting time to get any food on your table is at least 30 min. The servers at the breakfast are the same young girls that clean the rooms (looks and feels like cheap labour). There are three dogs on the premisses that walk free and barking all night long. One of the nights we couldn't sleep at all because of these dogs. The Riad does offer a dinner menu, however the price is unreasonably hight. Walk 100 meters to a main street and you will pay fraction of that price. One more detail - Keep in mind that this Riad doesn't except credit cards. The conclusion: I would NOT recommend Riad Dar Ziryab

Do you like being ignored and not helped with your bags etc at your riad? Do you love haggling around insane prices at the end of the day when you get back to your riad from the Medina market? What about rude staff? Dar ziryab is for you! It doesn’t matter if you’re a kind guest who tips extremely well, they will gouge you on extras, like laundry and not help with anything. Didn’t help with our bags, charged us two euros per piece of clothing we sent for laundry, after we argued about that finally they reduced it to 1 euro per single piece of underwear for laundry. Ridiculous. They kept asking when we wanted to pay during our stay way before the day we were leaving. The guy at the front was completely unhelpful, gave us some incorrect information, brought other staff to harass us about the 40 euros they wanted to charge us for a single load of laundry (no pressing). It was bizarre. Every other place we have stayed we have had amazing service and kind hosts/riad staff. My friend and I were relieved to finally get out of there and move on with our Moroccan trip. Having done Fez, I would recommend instead staying at a riad inside the medina, there are many and they were well placed and gorgeous. Dar ziryab is far from the Medina and you won’t get any help or useful information from the staff. It’s a pretty riad though, but poor lighting and tacky decor bring down the intricate architecture . Not worth it, and the only negative tourist experience I’ve had in Morocco.

Cadre surprenant que ce riad moderne très décoré. Le propriétaire très compétent en art et culture islamiques et autres est passionnant à écouter. Très confortable et accueillant. Le sommet c'est la qualité du dîner aux recettes traditionnelles de Fes avec artichauts sauvages ou coings. Je comprends que tous les amateurs de bonne cuisine marocaine défilent goûter les plats de la propriétaire.

Le Ryad est typiquement de style marocain, les chambres sont spacieuses, propres. Le personnel est charmant et souriant. Un grand bravo au jeune Mehdi, qui est très agréable, professionnel et très compétent. En revanche, les repas du soir sont chers, ( mais savoureux il faut le dire !) le choix des vins est vraiment limité et leur qualité médiocre. De plus, au moment de régler l’addition, l’appareil carte bleue a failli ne pas marcher… (ça nous a paru un peu bizarre quand même) …
