Riad Dar Bensouda Guest House
This authentic guesthouse is located in the heart of the oldest quarter of Fez, close to the medina and a 10-minute walk from Place R'cif. Some other local landmarks include the Batha Place, which is just a 15-minute stroll away, while the train station is within a short 10-minute drive. Dating back to 1760, the hotel has been carefully renovated and reconstructed, but still shows a glimpse of that long gone era. It features traditional architecture harmoniously combined with all the modern comforts. This typical house has two beautiful courtyards: a fountain courtyard around which the elegant rooms and suites are arranged, and the swimming pool patio with cosy, leafy garden. The large roof terrace treats to sweeping views over the medina and offers various relaxation areas such as a traditional Moroccan tent and an upper terrace with a panoramic view of the Atlas Mountains.

What do guests think about this lodging establishment?
The accommodation received positive feedback from guests who enjoyed its intimate and ancestral architecture, taking them back to old Morocco. The staff was described as the nicest people, and the food was praised for its authenticity and deliciousness. The terrace offered a stunning 360-degree view of the old Medina. However, some guests mentioned difficulty navigating the narrow streets of the Medina and the lack of amenities such as a fridge, TV, or radio in the rooms. They also highlighted the staff's lack of attention to detail and inconsistency in service. Overall, the accommodation was considered comfortable and beautiful, with a helpful and friendly staff, but some improvements in service and facilities were suggested.
