Recommend it for couples seeking romance

We had an unforgettable stay the staff were exceptionally kind and welcoming right from the start The breakfast was a highlight every morning the fresh pastries and Moroccan tea were just magical

It wasn't exactly inexpensive but worth every penny for the experience

excellent access to the best sights in fes

During my stay, I was enchanted by the beautiful architecture of the riad and the tranquility it offered, making it the perfect retreat after a day spent exploring nearby attractions like the Marinid Tombs, which are only almost 2 km away, and the bustling Medina of Fez, just a few steps away from the hotel.

The decor was amazing, with a unique ambiance and a stunning rooftop terrace overlooking the city. I loved how each room had its own charm. The hammam experience was revitalizing, and the dining was a good treat, offering delicious Moroccan cuisine.

Majestic room decor

The poached eggs were a heavenly breakfast treat, perfectly done and just the indulgence needed to start the day. Plus, the gorgeous decor made every meal feel like a grand feast! The tranquil courtyard pool was a delightful escape, perfect for unwinding.

Though I loved the Riad, the surrounding area could be a bit of a maze, with some odd smells wafting through from the streets. It’s a hustle to navigate and, honestly, safety concerns are there, which made me a tad uneasy walking around.

Here’s what works – and what doesn’t

Immersed in luxury with breathtaking decor, exceptional hospitality, and a serene courtyard complete with a stunning pool. Every meal treated with elegance, providing an authentic local flavor.

Navigating the surrounding medina can be challenging for newcomers. initial arrival felt overwhelming without clear direction.

gorgeous interior decorations, fantastic rooftop views, spacious rooms

The location can feel unsafe at night with aggressive locals and the foul odors from the street can make it uncomfortable!!!

The architecture is stunning with exquisite attention to detail, making every corner a visual delight. Enjoying breakfast on the terrace while gazing at the Medina was a highlight, and the staff displayed exceptional hospitality, going out of their way to make us feel at home. However, navigating the surrounding area can be a bit tricky for newcomers, and some amenities like the Wi-Fi could use improvement. Overall, a beautiful stay with a cozy ambiance but some practical aspects warrant attention.

An oasis with amazing service

Just spent 4 nights in a beautifully restored place. The staff were super welcoming and helpful. Each morning started bright with a fantastic breakfast. Plus, the shower in our room was top-notch! Only thing was, the Wi-Fi could be a bit iffy at times. Overall, a lovely place to chill after exploring the Medina.

Great bed and accommodating staff. Wi-Fi was spotty at times.

Would recommend for a speedy visit

Beautiful riad, relaxing atmosphere, with excellent breakfast options including Moroccan pastries and fresh fruit, making it a great start to your day.

No issues.

my stay at riad rcif & spa original was fantastic! the staff were super accommodating, and the breakfasts were plentiful with lots of options. my previous visit to fes was great, but this experience was even better!

the internet wasn’t very reliable in the room.

I had an amazing experience with mornings filled with delicious breakfasts and a relaxing hammam that was simply perfect. The stunning terrace views at sunset were a memorable treat! One minor hiccup was the internet in the room, but it wasn’t too much of a bother.
