Guest reviews for Riad Ahlam
"Exquisite traditional decor and serene ambience. Extremely clean, well maintained, and organized. Very beautiful and comfortable room with many amenities. Amazing breakfast. Perfect location near the Medina so you can enjoy the old city and market. Also, easy to get a taxi nearby. Strong WiFi. Especially, run by wonderful people, warm, welcoming, friendly and make you feel at home! Shukran!! I hope to visit Fes again someday, and if I do, I will stay here again."
"There was nothing that I didn’t like. Everything exceeded my expectations."
"Given how much I have traveled, I've never met kinder hotel staff who truly made you feel like family. From the warm greeting and getting picked up after the drop-off, to even heating up some leftover food for me (I was too sick the night before to eat), to making sure my laundry got done, and packing a to-go breakfast. It made being on the road for so long that much easier. Also, not to mention the incredible breakfasts! The riad itself was beautiful and in a great location. It was away from the hustle and bustle of the medina, but in close walking distance (just across the parking lot)."
"There was not a lot of sound insulation in my room and you could hear the guests below during meal time. However, this is a very minor detail. The hospitality and service shown by the hotel staff overshadowed any small inconveniences experienced."
"The riad is beautiful and very close to the medina. You have a great view from the balcony, and dinner was amazing. Also, the staff was really nice and very helpful in arranging excursions outside of the city."
"Honestly it was all really nice. I don't have complaints."
"Beautiful riad, delicious breakfast, warm, friendly and helpful staff, great location"

"Nothing!"
"Location is super, just steps away from the blue gate. A big parking lot outside the Riad makes easy for pickup. This is a big tranditional Riad with beautiful deceration. The room is spacious and confortable. Staffs are so nice and helpful. Breakfast is delicious. The view at the roof top terrace is fabulous to oversee the old Madina."
"No"
"The place is comfy, beautiful but what I liked the most was how welcoming the staff was. We arrived late at night and we still got welcomed with the best smiles and bottled water. When we were waiting for our taxi, the staff offered tea and even a taste of couscous because our flight was so late. Also, just cross the nearby parking lot and you're in the most lively uphill street of Fez. I would 100% go back again to this ryad."
"Everything exceeded my expectations. I was concerned about general comments about ryads in Fez having smells in bathrooms or being a bit tired, but it wasn't the case at all in Riad Ahlam."

"This stay in the Ziz valley felt extremely authentic and was a perfect way to end our time in this area of Morocco. Great location to stay for flights in and out of Errichidia. Hami and his family were excellent hosts and we loved our time talking, having tea, and enjoying the best tangine we had in Morocco!"

"We had a lovely stay with my wife and our two kids. The place is peaceful and perfect for relaxing as a family. The hosts were very welcoming and the breakfast was delicious – fresh, generous, and the best way to start the day with that amazing view and the old village. Highly recommended!"

"I had a wonderful experience in the desert. I stayed in a bivouac room, which was beautiful and comfortable in the middle of nature. Everything was clean, well organized, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Mr. Mubarak and his team were amazing—very kind, welcoming, and hospitable. They really made sure we had a great stay."
