Location is literally a 3 minutes walk from where you can take a cab. Great Riad within the Medina and very nice host ##### Hicham Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### peeter Jan 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### just amazing It was the best stay of my 10days trip without any doubt! What a place! Riad with history , very authentic. As I was only guest for 2 nights, I got excellent service and huge room with all the comfort. Owner had lived there forever runs the place, so it was great to hear about history. Absolutely good restaurant, nice breakfast. Recommendation: use the tour-guide that they offer you-helps a lot to navigate in the city. Only negative aspect: parking-they just do not have it and You have to leave you car in 7 minutes distance...if they have space in there at all ##### peeter Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karim Dec 30, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Déçu L’entrée du Ryad, ça va n’est pas trop loin de l’axe principal arrivé au Riyad. Le hall d’entrée est typiquement marocain, ce qui est très beau et magnifique pour les yeux. Par contre arrivé dans la chambre, très dommage de voir que les installations sont vétuste rouillé pas du tout entretenu, aucun joint dans le lavabo des petites choses qui ne coûte rien mais qui font beaucoup. C’est vraiment très dommage car si l’entretien de la chambre serait fait honnêtement ce serait un très bel endroit mais malheureusement je ne peux pas conseiller. ##### Karim Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ribaudo Jul 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Wunderschön! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8D846C7CF7DA204CDC7A175EE1B803F4F16F1A101689023782450.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6FBEC1DE70E97475AA5B94E20640D3DCE30F3B8B1689023782907.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/040E1531D66BA2AE370BB8200AD819727FE901BE1689023781987.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ribaudo Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andre Apr 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Très bon séjour à Fès!

It really is a special place that makes you feel like you've gone back in time. I highly recommend it. The towels could have been fresher is my only feedback. We also received help finding a good guide, which I appreciated. We loved Mohammad, who served us breakfast and helped to walk us to the taxis when we needed help. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Margaret Aug 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Authentic Riad This was a nice riad, but could be great. The building is spectacular and I hope someone soon gives it the TLC it deserves. The wine and beer selection was inclusive but the availability of what was on the menu was disappointing... it would be better to have listed only what is really available. The upstairs terrace was dusty but we enjoyed an evening up there despite this. The attentiveness of the main hostess and his helper was on point. Our stay overall was good because our expectations were reasonable based in the price. I would also recommend the riad but at present it is a 3-star property with 5-star potential! ##### Margaret Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Access to property very poor and had to be accompanied in case you got lost . ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Amanda Apr 15, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It's beautiful and in such a fun location!

The place itself can be a tourist attraction. Very helpful and friendly staff. Delicious food. However, half the time, there was no hot water. The location is also not that good as it is difficult to find it amidst the labyrinth that is the old city. The bedroom was upstairs which was slightly inconvenient. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mint Feb 19, 2019 Liked: Staff & service 伝統的な造り、装飾がとても綺麗でした。スタッフが親切でした。残念な点としてはテレビが使えなかった事と部屋内の二階の部屋が少し埃っぽくて目が痒くなりました。朝食がパンばかりで物足りませんでした。 ##### Mint Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Thomas Feb 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Off season leaves poor impression A spectacularly beautiful setting--almost like a movie set ( of 2 centuries wealthy decor). The large dining room was the centerpiece: We were excited when we walked in. Off season the staff were not particularly interested enough in us to bother much- except to collect money. The breakfast was not palatable. So we didn't bother the next day. The server for dinner did not have a clue about serving utensils or other needs! (Probably his & the cook's first night?) Our room was very dark making reading difficult. While 2 antique lamps stood ready, there were no outlets to reach them! The bed was comfortable. The bolster and pillows challenged comfort. The bathroom was very good as was our room's decor. The winding thru the medina eventuality made us feel successful at finding our way back. Note: look way up to see signs for it! In a summary: We suspect El Ghalia is a wonderful setting in which to stay. We just can't say this for February. ##### Thomas Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel authentique traditionnel dans un ancien palais marocain au cœur de la medina ,personnel tres accueillant toujours au petit soin pour vous .

Every staff member was smiling and helpful and polite. They organized a great walking tour of the medina for us, as well as a day trip to Chefchaouen. The riad is also extremely well located, just inside the medina, so easy to explore the medina or hop into a taxi for exploration elsewhere. ##### Catherine Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Victor Aug 12, 2018 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Schönes Ambiente Der riad ist schön und elegant, mein Zimmer war in Ordnung, und nach anfänglichen Schwierigkeiten mit der räumlichen Orientierung, stellte er sich als gute Wahl heraus. Nur ein paar Sachen erwiesen sich als nachteilhaft. Die Umgebung ist einfach uninteressant, hässlich sogar. In der Rezeption bestand man auf Bargeld für die Begleichung der Rechnung, am Ende gaben sie nach und ich durfte mit Kreditkarte bezahlen. In der ersten Nacht fand ich zwei Kakerlaken im Badezimmer -Ok, das ist normal- aber am nächsten Tag musste ich zweimal darum bitten, die zerquetschten Insekten zu beseitigen und den Fussboden zu wischen. Das Abendessen, ein Lamm-Tajine, etwas teuer, bestand hauptsächlich aus Knochen, Haut und Fett. Das Personal ist korrekt, sie könnten sich aber ein bißchen mehr um die Gäste kümmern. ##### Victor Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Marco, Roma Jul 4, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Posto bello, ma necessita di manutenzione Sono stato una notte alDar El Ghalia con la mia famiglia. Il posto è molto bello, ricorda i palazzi delle mille e una notte. Il personale gentilissimo e disponibile. Le camere un po' piccole, senza un armadio o un posto dove mettere i vestiti, con luce scarsa. Il bagno, con vasca, necessita sicuramente di manutenzione con i muri sbriciolati in qualche punto. Con un po' di lavori il posto sarebbe stupendo. ##### Marco Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 13, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great stay - good food and service. large rooms Beautiful riad, large rooms and excellent staff.
