The staff made up for the age of the building. The building is cozy but small. However I would stay here again due to cost and staff helpfulness. They were great and helpful.

If you’re looking for a spot to stay in old town Fes (which I recommend for any tourist experience), this is the place to stay! The staff went above and beyond to make sure my friend and I had a comfortable stay. In addition, their restaurant got solid food so we ate there for dinner for our full stay. One of the guys there even offered the jacket off his back for me when it was down pouring right before the Fez Medina tour I book, which really spoke volumes about his hospitality. My friend and I felt safe and comfortable during our time with the staff in our corner! Just some information about the rooms - a little small but the room is clean. Bathroom has a curtain that serves as a door. The shower is open to the full bathroom where the floor is angled slightly so the water goes down the drain in the corner of the bathroom. This was not a concern for my friend and me but do take this into consideration if you are someone who needs extra space. Above all, I’m very satisfied with the service Palais Fes Yahya provided. 10/10 recommend

The room and bathroom did not look like the pictures at all, but the amazing staff made up for that. They were so kind, helpful, and friendly. They made sure we knew where we were going, set up taxis for us, and made sure we had everything we needed. The breakfast was also delicious and the best one we had in Morocco.

Hello First of all, there's no pool at the property, there's a restaurant at the top where you can eat, we had tajine, rice and chicken. The food was delicious and tasty. Overall the service was good, the small thing I didn't like, I don't think if it's their fault or a FEZ thing, but we walk a lot to get there and the access is like a labyrinth. Once you get inside you forgot your pain lol. The Location is good and you can easily walk to the taxi and souk. Thanks

We spent three nights at Palais Fès Yahya and truly loved our stay. This family‑run hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of the Fes medina, making it easy to explore the city. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to help us navigate the medina and recommend excellent guided tours. The riad itself has a beautiful, traditional décor that adds so much charm to the experience. We especially enjoyed the rooftop terrace — a lovely place to start or end the day. Breakfast was included and just perfect to begin our mornings. A warm, authentic and memorable stay. Highly recommended.

I stayed at this riad for two weeks and they literally treated me like family. At one point I got sick and they checked on me several times and went to the pharmacy to pick up my prescription. The service was outstanding in every way and the restaurant is d3eservedly one of the top rated eateries in Fes. Stay here. You will be glad you did!

Great value for money. Easy access to tours (near a main street) and very clear directions in the medina. Dinner and breakfast were the best we had in town, both in taste and presentation. Staff were genuinely helpful, special thanks to Yassine and Abde Arhman, and the owner Abdul was clear and efficient. They arranged a hammam with pick-up. Room was spotless and the bed/blanket were very comfortable. Bonus: a small shop 1 min away you can buy snacks and drinks, the lady boss and the kids are very honest and helpful.

We returned to Palais Fes Yahya after a couple of days in Chefchaouen as we had had such a lovely stay previously. It was like coming home to old friends!! The family helped us to arrange a last-minute visit to the Chouara Tanneries, before catching our train to Marrakesh. They really are a delightful family- so very kind and helpful. We highly recommend this authentic and beautiful riad if you are coming to Fes!!

If I could give these guys 20 stars I would! The host family was more than accommodating. We arrived much later than expected and someone met us on arrival in the middle of the night to guide us to our accommodations. They were absolutely so hospitable and welcoming they made us feel very comfortable and like at home.

Fatima and her family were so very welcoming, friendly and accommodating from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble! Communication with Fatima was easy and her family were so helpful and kind to us. The riad is absolutely stunningly beautiful and our room was so pretty and super-comfortable. We ate dinner at the riad which was delicious and beautifully presented. We look forward to visiting again next time!!

We really enjoyed our stay. The ‘brothers’ took excellent care of us and we were able to easily arrange two tours of the city, which was very helpful as we were only there for one day. The place was very clean and beautiful. The shower was very hot and full. The best part was walking up the alleyways of the Medina. It took us back in time and it was easy to appreciate the historical aspects of this amazing city. We have definitely fallen in love with Morocco and it’s people!

Absolutely wonderful staff. The boys went above and overboard. The hotel is centrally located and there are signs everywhere leading you to this hotel, so there are no chances of you getting lost in Fes’ alleys. The dinner was ok, and the room was ok too. The bathroom is tiny, so was quite challenging. The room that we got was extremely noisy, and this went on for about until midnight. However, I would still recommend this stay coz of the staff.

"Palais Fes Yahya: Culinary Excellence in Morocco"

Certainly! Clear signage provided by Palais Fes Yahya in Fes' old town helps guests navigate the similar streets, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable exploration of the vibrant surroundings. The exceptional food at Palais Fes Yahya, prepared with love and care by the family, stands out as one of the most memorable culinary experiences guests encounter in Morocco.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The room was beautiful in a central location of the Old Medina, a city founded in the 700s. At first sight, the alley ways of the old city can be a bit overwhelming to someone unfamiliar with the layout of the Fes. However, they were safe to walk and the owner and his brothers were exceptionally helpful in giving us a map and directions. I think the real plus was they had painted signs throughout the maze from every point of interest on how to get back to the city. Furthermore, their rooftop restaurant had the most flavorful Morrocan food that wr had eaten in the country. They also packec us a breakfast and helped arrange the puckup for out desert safari. Highly recommendef.
