Our Picks — Fez
Fes el-Bali
A showpiece riad in the heart of the old city, Riad Fès pairs meticulous zellij tilework and carved cedar with the hush of a private courtyard pool. Days begin with an unhurried breakfast and end with candlelit dinners and hammam rituals—an antidote to the medina’s sensory swirl just outside the door.
Ville Nouvelle / hill overlooking the medina
Set above the city in the modern quarter, Hotel Sahrai is Fez’s sleek counterpoint to traditional riads—cool-lined architecture, contemporary Moroccan design, and a resort-like calm. It’s the kind of place you retreat to after the medina: pool time, a serious spa program, and multiple restaurants under one roof.
Borj Nord / upper medina edge
Housed in a former Arab-Moorish palace with sweeping views over the rooftops, Palais Faraj delivers grand spaces and a cinematic sense of arrival. Expect generous suites, a deep wellness menu, and a rooftop terrace that turns sunset into an event—ideal when you want old-world drama with modern comfort.
Fes el-Bali
A restored palatial riad with an enchanting garden courtyard, Palais Amani feels like a private residence that happens to run flawlessly as a hotel. It’s beloved for its cooking school, polished service, and rooftop moments above the medina—classic Fez romance without the fuss.
Fes el-Bali
Riad Maison Bleue is a refined, family-run address where traditional plasterwork, tile, and carved wood frame a calm inner patio. The experience is intimate and service-forward, with spa touches and rooftop downtime that make the medina feel navigable—even for first-timers.
Fes el-Bali
A quietly luxurious riad that doubles as a soothing wellness base, Riad Laaroussa balances historic character with boutique-hotel polish. Expect a rooftop terrace for late-afternoon tea, a serious hammam-and-massage offering, and an atmosphere that feels curated rather than staged.
