The location is perfect, quiet and at the same time close to the Medina which is good to walk around and visit the old city of Fes. The room price was affordable 50 euro per night, whereas Expedia listed the price in Moroccan dirham. The Riad offers a home cooked tagine dinner for 20 euro per person (approximately 210 dirham) and is a nice treat if you want a quiet dinner in (restaurant tagines are around 90 dirham). We tried 2 rooms: the inside rooms are very quiet and dark at night, the other room with the balcony to the outside was louder but has a fantastic view of the hillsides. Bathrooms are decent, we had some issues with the shower but that was fixed after talking to the host. The place offers to wash clothes for 1 euro (10 dirham) a piece, hanged to be dried, not ironed, which means the clothes might take longer to dry e.g, more than 24 hours. My only recommendation, and to avoid any confusion or misunderstanding, is to use the country currency (dirham) for the room price and the other services. Not all visitors are from Europe, and converting between currencies and changing exchange rates may cause budgeting problems. ##### Mohammed ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kyle Apr 16, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Place is a scam.

Breakfast is ok and the room was small but decently comfortable. Location is at the edge of Fes medina, could be hard to find or easy to get lost near there. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles Apr 27, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location, comfortable beds This is a nice, newly renovated raid near the wall of the medina, and not far from one of the gates, so it’s relatively easy to find. The room was pretty clean, and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast is good. We also ordered dinner there one night, and it was great. The biggest downside is the staircase, which is very steep and narrow. Also, the shower had mildew. ##### Charles Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved staying at the Riad Scalia! The property was beautiful and easy to find, away from the hustle and bustle of the medina but an easy walk away. We had a lovely terrace in our room overlooking the countryside. Our hosts were extremely kind and friendly. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katherine Mar 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful stay on the edge of the Medina Riad Scalia is charming and comfortable home away from home located on the edge of the Fez Medina. Our room and the common areas were clean and beautifully decorated. In addition, the shower was water was hot and the WIFI worked well. Our hosts, Mohammed and Nezah, were two of the nicest people I have ever met in a place where I stayed as a guest. Nezha went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful, and she is warm and genuine individual. After a long day of walking all over the Medina, she invited to the rooftop terrace for a cup of fresh tea. And what an amazing view! The home-made breakfast every morning was delicious, and Nezah showed us how she cooked the chicken and vegetable couscous that we had for dinner. Staying at Riad Scalia made our short time in Fes very enjoyable, and we were genuinely glad that we had selected to stay there. ##### Katherine Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### chantal Mar 20, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Fes est un endroit à découvrir, hors du temps, authentique, le soleil était là et les marocains sont accueillants. Le propriétaire des lieux est resté distant lorsqu'il s'est rendu compte que nous nous sommes débrouillés par nous mêmes, les escursions qu'ils proposaient étaient deux fois plus chers. Lors de notre départ, il n'a pas daigné se lever pour nous dire au revoir. Quand à sa femme, elle était parfaite dans son rôle d'hôtesse. Le petit déjeuner était médiocre, même pas de vrai jus d'oranges alors que le pays regorge d'oranges. La terrasse du riad n'est pas très confortable pour se détendre. Une route en contre bas avec beaucoup de circulation et une caméra installée sur la terrasse alors ils pouvaient contrôler nos faits et gestes. ##### chantal Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### ka yan Mar 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Valuable to stay here, very nice host. Location is not bad, at least only 3mins walk when you get off from taxi, 15mins walk to the leather attraction. Tips: get into the main door and go left hand side (a hotel is there), go stright and turn right—>go stright and turn left when u see the beautiful lamp then you are arrived. Even with this very cheap price, the breakfast was good but it only served from 9:00am. The Riad is very clean (just renovated) and beautiful, a different style from other riad, also with the nice view on the roof. However, the shower facilities is not okay, the water pressure is not enough and the spinkle is fixed, it is hard to wash hair and body clearly with small water running out. The most important thing is it will be flooding when you’re taking shower, it took quite a long time to digest the water from the pipe. And the single bed is so small, smaller than home’s bed. Only 1 hair dryer of whole Riad, have to be quick for borrowing it. But with this cheap price, it is also super valuable to stay here, the host are also super friendly! ##### ka yan Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 26, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service We had terrible experience On the day of boot we were in contact with owner of lodge and spoke to him three times and told him about our expected time of arrival, we arrived around 11:35 pm , the moment we arrived at hotel we found that the way out towards hotel was very narrow congested streets , owner of lodge started to shout at us and yell that why we were late ? I told him that’s not the way to talk than he asked us to leave though we had reservation? After heated argument for about 15 minutes , manager of lodge Nazha came down and asked owner to calm down and don’t shout as other guest were sleeping. Breakfast was very poor , below standard for even a three star hotel ! Before booking on ebookers website it was mentioned that there was free parking , in fact that was a lie , there was paid parking at about 10 minutes walk from hotel and we paid 2 euros per 24 hours! Lodge owner said to us that last Chekin time was 21:00 hours , but my reservation email didn’t say anything like that , even on ebookers website no time limit was mentioned for checkin! Overall a pathetic experience and I felt like being decieved by ebookers website ! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony Feb 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely hotel Lovely traditional style hotel, great staff, clean, close to market ##### Tony Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adrian Feb 14, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Road Scalia is the place to stay in Fes Mohammed was an exceptional host very hospitable and helpful in all respects, fabulous cooking and hospitality. ##### Adrian Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### K Jan 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful view and very friendly Riad Scalia is a beautiful Riad on the border of the Medina. It's about a 5 minute walk from where you have to park the car at Bab Guissa. Staff were very friendly and played with our daughter. We ate at the hotel on the first night and it was expensive, but very tasty. ##### K Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott Dec 18, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A jewel tucked away in the corner of the medina Riad Scalia is charming and comfortable without being pretentious. The rooms and the common areas are clean and attractive, the water is hot, the wifi is solid. While located away from the main tourist hotspots of the medina, the riad is still close enough to some very interesting quarters and Bab Boujloud is a short and cheap taxi ride away (or a fascinating 30 minute walk). Easy long-term parking is reasonably handy with porters ready and waiting to ferry your luggage for a tip. But the real highlight of Riad Scalia is the manager, Nezha. She goes out of her way to make your stay wonderful and her concern for guests is warm and genuine. No matter what time of the day or night you come back to the riad, Nezha seems to be waiting and ready for a friendly chat about what you've been up to, before offering tea on the rooftop terrace. Nezha's cooking was a daily treat. She serves her house-made breakfast every morning with pride and will cook dinner on request for a reasonable price (we enjoyed a delicious chicken and vegetable cous cous). Overall, staying at Riad Scalia made our time in Fes more enjoyable and we were genuinely sad to say goodbye. ##### Scott Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 25, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is a hidden gem inside a medina which I absolutely loved. Nezha was an amazing cook and super sweet! She made us feel extremely comfortable and recommended things to do in the area. I would stay here again and give it 5 stars!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Nov 7, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service I noticed afterwards that we should be served with drink when we arrived but we did not receive tea. We had trouble locating the place because the lat/long on Google map for their hotel is pointing to a wrong place. It could be fine but it was rainy and dark, I could only follow Google map before I managed to call them. There were 3 of us. We paid 70 euro for a 5 hour tour in madina through the host, the female guide left my friends alone after 2 hours. I was sick and could not join, we still paid her 70 euro for 2 people. I asked the host to contact her, she thinks if my friends do not know where else they want to go, she has finished her job. The host is not that interested to protect the interests of us, but telling me my friend made a scene in the morning by "screaming at the guide in front of other guests". My friends wanted to cancel the tour because I was sick and they don't want to go without me, but I convinced them to continue and paid the same price. I don't see this as the reason that the guide choose to end the trip that early because my friends "finish the sightseeing fast". I personally apologized to the hosts on behalf of my friends for "screaming in front of other guests". But this does not mean my friends are at fault for all of these. We had an early (8am) bus the next day, the host forgot to return us our passport one day before, so I had to embarrass myself calling their phones and knocking at door to get ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Howe, Berkeley CA Sep 15, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful riad (recently renovated) and excellent service. Friendly and competent. Would def recommend if you are looking for a great value. Just have reasonable expectations of the amenities (WiFi issues, etc).

The architecture and the decoration of the rooms is very impressive ( traditional Moroccan + stunning panorama view from the balcony ) The hosts were very friendly and were avaible 24h/day to make the stay as comfortable as possible. Additionally the breakfast was very good because we’ve had the opportunity to taste real traditional morrocan self made backed goods. Absolutely recommendable! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arash Mar 8, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Loved it. Fascinating. ##### Arash Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Gabby Dec 28, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Riad was located on the periphery of the Medina, within a 15 min walk you were at the Blue Gate after passing sites along the main road. It was easy to find and close to the road so taxis were no problem. We were warmly welcomed by the host, who was very pleasant throughout our stay. The room was comfortable and a had vibrant, themed decor. It had one double bed and a second room for a child only as an average adult would have difficulty sleeping in the bed. The common areas also had vibrant colors and were beautifully decorated. We took lots of pictures there. Breakfast was delicious - tea, juice, jams, bread, fruit. Two things to mention are that the host did not speak english very well, so we had a bit of difficulty communicating about sites, bus information etc. and she also requested specific times for our return so that she could open the doors. This wasn't ideal for us as we were roaming about without active mobile phones but I am sure there is a way to work around this, we were only there for 1.5 days. Overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend. ##### Gabby Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### nacer Apr 4, 2017 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Staff & service je suis arrivé a fes le 27/03/2017 parce que le 26/03/2017 j'ai contacté le responsable d’hôtel parce que mon avion avait fait un retard même chose pour mon train lui aussi fait un retard , j'ai lui informé de mon arrivé tardif mais le responsable a refusé de nous accueillir a cause da mon arrivé tardif il ma envoyé un sms pour m'informer que le cheken in sera demain a 14 h 00 donc j’étais dans l'obligation d’arrêter a Meknès et rester la ba le lendemain a midi j'ai reçu un sms que ma réservation a été annuler par expédia et vous n'avez pas une réservation a l’hôtel après une heure j’étais a Hotel , j'ai présentée ma réservation et j'ai lui explique que il ne ya pas une clause qui annule le réservation mais il a insister j'ai lui menacé d'aller a la police pour faire une plainte j’étais énervé par ce comportement avec mon ami jusqu’à intervention de son gérante qui nous accueilli, j'ai resté deux nuits du 27/03/2017 au 29/2017 donc j'ai perdu deux nuits une perte de 36 euros euros je vais demander de les rembourser . un bon riad avec un mauvais propriétaire ##### nacer ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Cayo Coco](https://www.expedia.ca/Cayo-Coco-Hotels.d6348829.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Ibiza Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Ibiza-Island-Hotels.d602653.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Grand Palladium Punta Cana Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Punta-Cana-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h1366645.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Exeter](https://www.expedia.ca/Exeter-Hotels.d8057.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels.d178276.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Todos Santos](https://www.expedia.ca/Todos-Santos-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d6124833-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [ARIA Sky Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-ARIA-Sky-Suites.h6417182.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Reef-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h23249.Hotel-Information) > > [San Diego Marriott La Jolla](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Jolla-Hotels-San-Diego-Marriott-La-Jolla.h2097.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Aquarium of Quebec](https://www.expedia.ca/Aquarium-Of-Quebec-Hotels.0-l502439-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Deerfoot Inn & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Deerfoot-Inn-Casino.h1351229.Hotel-Information) > > [Spark by Hilton Brockville](https://www.expedia.ca/Brockville-Hotels-Spark-By-Hilton-Brockville.h41402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Port Rexton](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Rexton-Hotels.d6341568.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Guatemala City (GUA) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/gua/yvr/guatemala-city-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lax/toronto-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Comox (YQQ) to Honolulu (HNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqq/hnl/comox-to-honolulu) > > [Flights from North Bay (YYB) to Thunder Bay (YQT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyb/yqt/north-bay-to-thunder-bay) > > [Flights from Beijing (PEK) to Dubai (DXB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/pek/dxb/beijing-to-dubai) > > [Copa](https://www.expedia.ca/Copa-Flights.cCM.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Grand Rapids (GRR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/grr/winnipeg-to-grand-rapids) > > [Flights from Phoenix (PHX) to Regina (YQR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/phx/yqr/phoenix-to-regina) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nyc/toronto-to-new-york) ### Cruise > [Azamara Azamara Pursuit Cruises](https://www.expedia.ca/Azamara-Club-Cruises-Azamara-Pursuit.cAZ-sPR.Cruise-Ship-Info) > > [MSC MSC Seashore Cruises](https://www.expedia.ca/MSC-Cruises-MSC-Seashore.cMS-sSH.Cruise-Ship-Info) ### Packages > [Casino Monte Carlo](https://www.expedia.ca/Casino-Monte-Carlo-Monte-Carlo.d6063903.Vacation-Attraction) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Peasholm Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Peasholm-Park-Scarborough.d6173398.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Shoppers Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Shoppers-Mall-Brandon.d6283880.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Hawke's Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawkes-Bay.dx181828)
