This is top notch!
Absolutely breathtaking building, beautifully maintained. A very warm welcome, we had a very spacious room & large bathroom. Breakfast was plentiful and fresh. If I ever go back to Fes, we would 100% stay here again, the location is perfect and they were extremely helpful with tips & tricks on how to navigate the medina and where to eat. Top notch!

Authentic Dar Stay
Wonderful stay in a traditional Moroccan style home turned into a lovely multi story hotel. Traditional layout, with minimalist room/bathroom furniture, and stairs everywhere, including those leading to a great panoramic terrace on top. Breakfast was lovely. The best part: the staff! Bending over backwards to make us feel like we truly had arrived at home. Thank you!

Amazing Experience - You Should Stay Here in Fez
My wife and I spent two weeks in Morocco and our 3 night stay at Dar Settash with Reda as our host was honestly one of the highlights of the whole trip. Reda was the most accommodating and helpful host we have ever had at a hotel / bed n breakfast / etc and truly makes you feel like you are at home.
On top of that, 1) the rooms are very nice and very clean, 2) the location is perfect right in the medina, 3) the food that we had at the riad was some of the best Moroccan food we had anywhere in Morocco, and 4) the view from the terrace is awesome.
Simply to stay here again would be one of my top reasons to return to Fes (don't worry, the city is great as well).
Thank you again for hosting us!

It was a fantastic stay in the beautiful old Riad. Thank you for the kindness of the staff who bought and brought the train ticket for Marrakech and for the consideration of the president of Fatima.
It was a little hard to find Riad, but I was able to find him comfortably because he sent me to the taxi stop.

I wish I could leave more stars
I was blown away, the property is beautiful! My room was upgraded since the one I booked was being renovated. The breakfasts are INCREDIBLE. I spent so much time relaxing on the gorgeous rooftop. The place is clean, quiet, and Fatima and Reda went above and beyond to help with everything I could need and made me feel like part of the family. They helped with airport transfers, tours, hammam appointments, recommendations for shops, everything! Plus my flight out was late, and they let me hang out on the roof and relax until it was time for me to go to the airport. I genuinely wish I could have stayed longer, and my next trip to fes this will be where I stay, no hesitation!
Tout d’abord nous tenons à remercier l’équipe en place Reda, Fatima et leurs collègues qui ont facilité énormément notre installation et sont extrêmement serviables, nous donnant conseils et tips en tous genres pour rendre le séjour agréable
Le Riad est très bien placé, très facile d’accès
L’architecture et la rénovation du patio sont très bien réalisés
La chambre (suite) était très spacieuse et la literie très agréable
Le rapport qualité prix pour 2 adultes et un enfant est excellent
Quelques point d’améliorations de notre opinion :
Il pourrait y avoir une légère montée en gamme en améliorant un peu la décoration, les espaces commun (patio et terrasse). Aussi le petit déjeuner était excellent mais a notre goût il pourrait aussi être agrémenter de fruits, confitures supplémentaires, dattes… même si Reda nous a expliqué qu’ils avaient déjà expérimenté sans succès

Riad molto carino ed accogliente, Fatima e il suo collaboratore sono molto gentili, ottima posizione, ottima pulizia e ottima colazione. La camera al piano terra però ha poca privacy perché accanto alla reception e sala colazioni. Chiedete quale camera avrete prima di prenotare
L’accueil très chaleureux et le personnel très accueillant le Riad possède une terrasse a couper le souffle

Ottima accoglienza e disponibilità da parte del personale. Avevamo necessità di partire presto e l'hotel ha a disposizione il servizio navetta per l'aeroporto, ovviamente a pagamento. All'arrivo sono venuti a prenderci con il tipico carrettino, perché il riad si trova in una viuzza della medina e non è facilmente raggiungibile. Abbiamo pagato anche questo servizio. Al ritorno, invece, il personale ci ha accompagnato al taxi e non abbiamo pagato nulla, una gentilezza che abbiamo apprezzato molto.
Stanza grande ma non curatissima, inoltre il bagno privato non è in camera ma adiacente alla stessa, sul corridoio.
Pulizia della stanza e del bagno sufficiente, si può fare di meglio.
Nel complesso il rapporto qualità/prezzo è buono.
