Excellent quality of hospitality and service
Ribal was an absolute excellent host, highest standard of hospitality, quality of service, and the riad. The location was perfect, car drop off at the front door. Highly recommended. The host/owner has an incredible family background too.

We spent 5 days at Riad Andalib. It was an oasis in the bustling medina region of Fes. The staff were very accommodating and always were looking out for the guests. The breakfast was substantial with local cuisine. We enjoyed our stay here and it made our trip to Fes memorable. Highly recommend.

Wonderful hotel / Riad. Even more wonderful host. Meeting and talking to Reibal was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Morocco. He’s extremely helpful, phenomenally well-informed, absolutely fluent in English, and has fascinating stories to share about his family’s amazing background and the significant cultural history of the building.

This was my second time staying at Riad Andalib. The Riad is ideally located for exploring all of the historic sights in Fes and is conveniently located for taxis and transport to the airport - unlike many of the Riads in Fes, cars can pull-up right outside.
The welcome at Riad Andalib was excellent - staff genuinely care about the guests and catering for their needs. I’m allergic to gluten and they made me special breads for breakfast which removed a lot of the stress from my holiday.
I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Fes!

This was my first time visiting Fes and I’m really pleased that I chose to stay at Riad Andalib! It’s in a really convenient location with an easy walk to all of the main sites in the Medina.
The rooms are lovely and the staff are incredible. They worked really hard to ensure that all of the guests enjoy their stay and nothing was too much trouble for them - whether it was dealing with food allergies, organising tours and transport, or coming up with ideas for new and interesting places to visit in the city.
I’d recommend Riad Andalib to anyone visiting Fes - it really was a “home from home” during our holiday and I’ll definitely stay there again next time I visit this beautiful city!

Wonderful riad
Riad Andalib is an impeccably modern, spruce, and well-appointed guesthouse in the medina of Fes, with spacious & comfortable rooms and an owner, M. Reibal, who is a consummate hotelier. We will certainly stay there again when we are next in Fes & I recommend it without hesitation as a fine play for all to stay in when visiting Fes.

Reibal, the owner, provides great guide and tips for avoiding scams, as well as general prices for taxis to avoid tourists overpaying. Those tips served us well in all of Morocco and other riads/hotels did not provide that kind of service. The rooms were very clean and the bed is firm and very comfortable, perhaps the best sheets in Morocco. Shower water pressure is also great and the riad is in a convenient location for walking to the main attractions. Would definitely stay again when going to Fes.

I have been to hundreds of hotels, but this was truly a unique experience. The exquisite Moroccan architecture of the place, the amazing food homecooked from fresh ingredients (You have to place your order in the morning if you wish to dine at the Riad,) the attention to details and most of all the attentiveness, caring, and friendliness of the staff. Riad Andalib is clearly an act of love by the owner, Rebal, who is there all the time, making sure everythng is run to perfection. A truly unique place!

Der Aufenthalt war einfach perfekt! Das Personal sowie der Manager waren extrem hilfsbereit. Unsere um 6 Stunden verspätete Ankunft mitten in der Nacht war kein Problem. Der Fahrer sowie ein Hotelmitarbeiter haben auf uns gewartet und uns trotz der späten Stunde herzlich empfangen. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und es hat einem an nichts gefehlt. Das beste allerdings war, dass man zu Beginn eine Einführung mit do‘s and don‘ts für den Besuch der Medina bekommen hat und auch für unsere weitere Reise haben wir super Tipps bekommen! Jede Frage wurde ausführlich beantwortet und jedem Anliegen nachgekommen. Das Frühstück war lecker mit frisch gepresstem Orangensaft. Die Lage war auch perfekt am Rand der Medina.

Our stay at this location was exceptional. The advice provided to help navigate the geographic, touristic and cultural elements of Fes were exceptional.
One of the best meals we had in all of Morocco was a the restaurant here. The owner is incredibly personable and seems wholly focused on optimizing guest experiences
When we had to leave a day earlier than planned due to unforeseen circumstances, he was exceptional in the way he handled it.
Could not provide a stronger recommendation. The experience provided here was amazing. They really have worked to make it a fantastic way to explore Fes

Very Nice // English and french speaking. Excellent accueille, situation parfaite, Repas du soir à faire (cuisine locale raffinée et ambiance chaleureuse).
Un des avantages de ce Riad est son emplacement. Un riad dans la Medina est à éviter car tout déplacement devient compliqué en soirée, riqué. The restaurant, rooms and restaurant are perfect. It's better to be at this square than completely inside the Medina, too risky to move by night. You will have a lot of helpful advices from the host.
The hotel was wonderful. The staff is extremely helpful. The room was very spacious (we were upgraded as well) and the common areas are great. Would definitely return.

Perfectly Authentic Excellent Experience!!
Wonderful Place, So much attention to details, Owner is very welcoming, knowledgable and helpful. He explains everything to make your experience even better....
Very nice hotel located in the Medina and importantly accessible by car. The hotel is clean and well maintained. It is easy to go around the Medina by foot from the hotel. Breakfast and other food provided at the restaurant was excellent
The owner takes personal care of his guests. One of the highlights is the briefing that he gives each guest on the do’s and dont’s while in Fes and how to stay safe. You will seldom find such a host that is as passionate about the well being of his guests.

HIGHLY recommended! There is a lot of reasons why we loved our stay at his hotel. As soon as we entered, we were welcomed with a great service and the owner sat down and told us how to navigate the town in the best way possible, reducing the need for group tours, high taxi costs etc. Staff is very nice and accommodating and we felt at home during our 2 day stay. They were able to help us in all way possible including coming up with a back up plan for our trip as our trip to merzouga got cancelled due to snow and road closure.
The place itself is easily the most beautiful place we found in the entire morocco and the room itself is very nice and clean. Their breakfast is MASSIVE and really really good and make sure you get their mint tea with sugar because theirs is REALLY good!
Also this place is only seconds away from the main part of the old town.
