We spent two nights at Riad Le Calife and had a wonderful experience. The stairs were a little narrow and steep for my parents, but the riad itself is beautiful and located near one of the major entrances to the medina making it easy to find. My wife and I were in the Ruby Suite which was absolutely amazing. We... More

We spent four nights at Le Calife and had a wonderful time. I highly recommend the Diamond suite. It was luxurious. The staff is very welcoming, the environment is very quiet and comfortable. The rooftop lounging area was an extra special treat. Breakfast on the rooftop was a really nice way to start the day. Breakfast is, as expected, Moroccan,... More

My wife and I were warmly received. We felt at home right away. As I am an architect, I was thrilled by the stunning, old building, lovingly renovated with colorful Moroccan tiles, wood carvings, metal screens, etc. The rooms are tastefully decorated. And the courtyard is a cool oasis even when the Medina outside is sweltering. We enjoyed the meals... More

Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed in.....great rooms and magnificent views over the medina....let down slightly by a ho hum breakfast, and rather overpriced dinners, which for the price would have been vastly improved with the inclusion of more fruit and vegetables.

Wi had a fantastic two night stay at Riad Le Calife in the Amethyst room. The room was delightful and spacious albeit up some seriously steep stairs - this is definitely not a hotel for physically disabled. As recommended by the Riad we contacted them on our arrival in Fes. This was an excellent suggestion as I doubt we would... More

This is a beautiful, classically restored riad inside the Fes Medina. Good classic food dishes, breakfasts were nice, with some delicious items. The hosts, Alexander and Yasmine, were kind and helpful. We stayed in the Emerald room, which was beautiful and comfortable. For 20 Euros more (at the time we booked), the Diamond room is twice as big and is... More

This riad is absolutely perfect. The best thing about this hotel, other than the amazing food and gorgeous rooms, is the friendly atmosphere and incredibly helpful staff who make you feel welcome and looked after. I strongly advise taking advantage of the cooking lesson as Fatima is a very talented chef and also very friendly, The food in the riad... More

This is an amazing Riad in every way. With impeccable styling and attention to detail, it is extremely comfortable and the rooms beautifully appointed. The owners are friendly and helpful and obviously love their city and home and are dedicated to making their guests feel welcome and pampered. The entire staff is top notch and the cook turns out consistently... More

We've been to Fez before and stayed at other places before but I have to say that the experience that we had here was by far the best. After arriving into town from a substantially delayed flight in the pouring rain, we were handed large umbrellas and guided to the Riad by the bellboy in the dark of night. Our... More
