We stayed at Riad Jaouhara for 3 nights and found it an absolute delight! The rooms were spacious; they were very accommodating, putting us in a different room that was kinder on my mother’s knees; and breakfast was great! We really enjoyed our interactions with the gentleman who served us breakfast every day- he was polite and charming. The Riad was within 3 minutes walk to the blue gate and highly accessible to the souk and major attractions.

Convenient Riad near Blue Gate

Very large bedroom, sitting room, and bath, all tiled and decorated, formerly a merchants house. Clean, great service. Initially had a room facing the street, too noisy, and was able to upgrade to courtyard. Recommend the courtyard for quiet.

More than Perfect

Riad Jaouhara is a gem. An old merchants’ home with years of history, it has been lovingly restored in traditional style to what would have been its former glory. The tile work, the caved wooden doors, the beautiful patio complete with plunge pool and resident birds all add to the tranquility one feels on stepping from the hustle and bustle at the edge of the Medina into a bye gone era. The smiling staff are friendly and caring
nothing is too much trouble. Traditional breakfast is served at tables scattered around the patio..delicious. Beds are firm and comfortable and there is a bar fridge in the room. We stayed downstairs in a room opening directly on to the patio with a separate seating area. Wifi is not the best, but neither was the phone signal
probably blocked by very dense walls. However I noted pigeons had boxes on the rooftop so perhaps the merchant who owned the house had a more functional communication system than the present day. The view from the rooftop is spectacular. THANK YOU for making our stay memorable.

Medina stay

A lovely oasis in the medina, easy to find and very well located near the blue gate. Overall the riad was clean and tidy and hosts very accommodating. The room we had was very bijou and the bed not at all comfortable, it was like sleeping on a board. We only stayed for a couple of nights so it wasn't an issue. I would also not recommend this riad for those with limited mobility. There are a lot of stairs and the staircase is very narrow too!! Overall a good stay.

Beautiful riad in a great location. Staff was pleasant but reserved. It seemed that little effort was made to interact with guests. A map of the medina, even a very basic one, would have been greatly appreciated.

Great hotel to enjoy Fes

We couldn’t be happier with our stay. The location was idea to enjoy the Music Festival and the old Medina. Everything was close by: great restaurants/ street food/ hammam ... Ali was very helpful and made our stay even more enjoyable. Would definitely go back. Thank you Ali and the management team!

A little oasis in a superb location

We had an amazing time staying in this beautiful riad. The staff are really attentive and helpful. The riad is so beautiful and clean. The courtyard is like a little oasis with beautiful plants and birds. The breakfast is all freshly made and authentic. The riad is located just a minute away from the blue gate in Medina so it was great location for exploring around the medina. It's fully gated so feels very safe and quite inside.

Agréable riad joliment rénové, idéalement situé, à 2 pas de la porte Bleue, parking souterrain à proximité. Il suffit d'en passer la porte pour retrouver le calme aprÚs le bruit et le monde de la médina. Personnel disponible, à l'écoute et de bons conseils. Chambres spacieuses et trÚs propres (attention, le wifi ne fonctionne pas toujours trÚs bien dans certaines chambres). Nous avons passé un trÚs bon séjour et recommandons cet établissement.

J'ai beaucoup apprĂ©ciĂ© le Maroc et la gentillesse de ses habitants, mais je garderai surtout la "saudade" du riad Jaouhara Ă  FĂšs, un havre de paix. Bien sĂ»r la gentillesse et la classe du personnel ont agrĂ©mentĂ© encore plus ce sĂ©jour, en commençant par son directeur, Ali, d'un charisme exceptionnel et ses collaborateurs semblables Ă  son image, comme Ahmed (trĂšs cultivĂ©)la jolie Souka, Amin et un autre monsieur dont j'ai oubliĂ© le nom (qu'il me pardonne). Chacun parlant parfaitement français (Amin a mĂȘme un petit accent lorrain), sans oublier le chauffeur Ali Aboul qui m'attendait Ă  l'aĂ©roport pour m'amener au riad et avec qui j'ai fait aussi le tour de la ville. L'unique inconvĂ©nient est que lorsque je suis entrĂ©e dans ce petit coin de paradis, je n'avais plus envie d'en sortir ni d'en partir.
