Dar Al Andalous

We loved our big room with a comfortable bed, high celings and a jacuzzi! The common areas are stunning. Delicious breakfast with local and fresh food. Rashid welcomed us every day with a big smile. He made our stay unique! always there to assist us. The place is close to restaurants and the medina. I trully recommend it. We went in February so we couldn't enjoy the terrace. We share the place with only another couple so practically had it Riad for us. Love it!

The first night we didn't have warm water for the jacuzzy. They explained to us it was due to the low use of the pipes and more tiem was needed. We enjoy a warm bath the next morning :)

We spent here 5 nights. We had a very great time here, the staff has tried its best to make us feel comfortable. The Riad is situated in a quiet street at the margin of the Medina. It is very close to the main attractions and still very quiet. Another advantage is that the taxi can get you in front of the street and then you walk 50 m to the accomodation. The Medina is car free, so otherwise you'd have to walk a bit to the taxi. The Riad has arranged a taxi for us to the airport. The Riad and the rooms are wonderfully decorated and also very clean. The beds in our standard double room were comfortable and big. There is also a big, beautiful roof terrace. The breakfast was very good, mostly sweet, they offer fresh juice, marmelade and freshly made pankaces. If you have any wish - we wanted scrambled eggs- they will try to make it for you. We dined there once, the food was very tasty. It will cost almost double as in a normal restaurant, but the food was fresh made and one of the best I tried in Morocco. They also have a Hammam, I can only recommend it! All in all, we had a wonderful time here!

I wished that the breakfast had more 'salty' products, like cheese or olives, but this is of course a matter of choice, many prefer the 'sweet' version. 🙂

They're all amazing and they'd do anything they can to help you and accommodate you. Our room was clean, big and the bed and pillows were comfortable. We didn't need to use the air con and we simply left the windows open and it was enough the keep the room fresh and with a nice breeze. We also spent time on the terrace during the day and evening and had dinner at the Riad, which was really really nice. The lamb was tasty and tender and my vegetarian cous cous was nicely flavoured, we loved it. Very good breakfast, they give you more than you can eat, there's nothing we didn't like.

We had the pleasure of staying at Riad Al Andalous in Fes, Morocco, and I must say it was a truly wonderful experience. We were greeted by a warm and friendly team that made us feel right at home. Othman, the manager, shared with us the fascinating history of the Riad, explaining that he had recently taken over the management of the riad from his father. It was interesting to learn that Riad Al Andalous was one of the first Riads to be converted into a guesthouse about 25 years ago. The Riad itself is a masterpiece, with its magnificent combination of two Riads. Bear in mind that being a century old, some parts of the Riad show signs of wear. While the Riad may have a slightly tired appearance in some areas, it is a testament to its rich history and adds to the overall charm and authenticity of the place. The attention to detail in the courtyard is exquisite, with beautiful decorations and the sound of water from it's fountain that create a tranquil atmosphere. It truly feels like an oasis in the heart of Fes. It is ideally situated just a 5-minute walk from the Medina and a 10-minute walk from the blue gate, which is the main entrance to the Medina. This makes it incredibly convenient for exploring the bustling streets, vibrant markets, and historical sites of Fes. During our stay, we encountered a small issue with the bathroom. However, upon bringing it to Othman's attention, he swiftly found a solution that left us more than happy. It was a testament to the exceptional service provided by the Riad's staff. Rashid, in particular, was always available to assist us and ensure that our needs were met. Lastly, I must mention the delicious breakfast we enjoyed every morning. The cook at the Riad prepared the most amazing semolina bread that was an absolute delight. It was the perfect start to our days, and we looked forward to it each morning. Overall, our stay at Riad Al Andalous was a truly memorable experience.

This is a beautiful family run Riad with authentic Moroccan architecture and ambience. The courtyard is bright and cool and a lovely place to sit before going out and on return from a day sightseeing. Mohamed and his son Otmane were always at hand to help with any requests or queries that we had and Rashi took great care of us every morning for breakfast as did the wonderful kitchen and cleaning staff.

We loved everything but if you like to lie in some noise from the courtyard can be heard in the rooms once breakfast begins

The wide selection of Maroccan and European dishes served to the table meant we could taste new and familiar dishes . The staff were extremely friendly and helpful but not intrusive. The Rihad is a stunning example of high , airy architecture full of moorish decoration . Rooms are comfortable .Private guides and chauffeurs are suggested by the proprietor. Dinner, plus choice of wines , is available if you prefer to pass the evening at the property .There is a different menu each evening or you can ask for what you prefer.

If , like us , you need ground floor rooms then walk -in showers would be far better than the bath with shower- head too low for some men .

We felt like being at home. The hospitality and service were beyond our expectations. The best dinner we had in our stay in Fes was even better than a 5-star hotel. The location was perfect, in a quiet part of the medina but really near all the attractions. walkable distance. We felt safe in the streets and walking at night as well. noting that we were two young women. It was easy to come and go. The transfer to the airport was really good as well. We decided to have a guide on the first day, and it was a suggestion from the riad; it was really great. Also, the riad is an architectural gem; it's beautiful. It was mesmerizing when we arrived to just sit there, listen to the water fountain, and drink our mint tea. We loved being there and missed it when we got home.

the bathroom and the cleanliness in general were not amazing. however it is an old mansion, with ancient materials, very well maintained. the light, the walls, the woods were of a dazzling wealth. it was really worth it.

Otmane and his team are so kind, they will do all their best to make your stay at Dar Alandalous perfect. The Riad is really amazing and reflect the beauty and architecture heritage of our Kingdom. The breakfast is one of the best I've ever had in a riad. Thanks to all the Riad team.

The noise, when people are in the main patio (especially that the main 4 suites are facing this patio, where people can sit and discuss which make naps or sleeping late impossible).

The place is stunningly beautiful. The loccy is very well kept and clean, the staff is extremely kind - as well as the owner. The food - especially dinner was delicious. We had the pastilla, and the chicken Tangine with really delicious local white wine.

The room was spacious and great, but the style did require alot of fabric (drapes, carpet sofa) which tend necessarily to get dusty a bit. The bathroom had a bit of wall damage. Overall very clean though. This is the only reason I gave a 9 not a 10.

The incredibly friendly and always helpful staff. The beautiful riad, the lovely room, the comfortable bed. The great breakfasts and dinners. The location that was reachable by car (monitored parking in the street nearby), yet 10 walk from the souks.

Hmmm... Perhaps that occasionally people smoked in the inside area. Not a big thing but surprising when you come from a place where smoking is practically banned. Oh yes, and the hot water was short one evening. Normally there was plenty though.
