The oldest university in the world isn’t Oxford or the Sorbonne—it’s the University of Al-Karaouine, and you’ll find it in Fes el Bali. This walled city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, will transport you back to medieval times. Visit the ancient maze-like quarters of the Medina to Fes el-Bali and the four imposing Gates of Fes, with their distinctive Moroccan tile work. You can walk, or, if you're brave, take a taxi—the daredevil drivers will have you hanging on for dear life.

Perfect Riad in the Old Medina, close to the Blue Gate but still quiet and fresh. Beautiful typical Riad décor. But everything has been amazing thanks to Mohammed, his staff and Fes magic atmosphere. Mohammed welcomed us in a lovely way, gave us a lot of suggestion and interesting talks about Fes, its history and culture. He deserves a special thanks for helping me in finding my bag with the passport; that I accidently forgot on a petite taxi! Thanks also toThe nightman, always available to serve breakfast anytime we needed, even at 3 am on our departure day. a special thanks. Fes is magic and this Riad Is the perfect choice for an unforgettable stay. Thanks!

We really liked our stay in this riad. The location is perfect, easily accessible by car/taxi and a few minutes walk from Bab Rsif. We enjoyed good breakfasts and delicious dinners on the terrace, set to music. The riad offers additional services: guided excursions, airport transfers and beauty salon and hairdresser. We have used these services and we are very satisfied. My friend, a demanding woman, was surprised by the high quality of the hairdresser that the riad has fitted out. We were very happy with the riad and the friendly staff. For this reason we extended our stay for two more days. I have no doubt that for my next visit to Fez I will stay at the riad Chahd again because we really liked the experience. We will miss the terrace, a true chill out!! Congratulations Karim, you own a nice place to stay in Fez :D we feel at home and we consider you as friends.

Located in the medina of Fez, Riad Le cedre d'argent offers 8 rooms with a modern Moroccan decor. It is a 2-minute walk from Oued Zhoun square. The hotel organizes excursions in the area and shuttle buses can be provided at an additional cost.
The staff was very friendly and welcoming. They will do anything they can to accommodate you and make sure your stay is perfect. The manager arranged my hammam experience for me including pick up and return to the riad. He also took me on a tour of the medina. They saved breakfast for me until I woke up and it was very good, a lot of food. Highly recommend this riad!

It's my third trip to Morroco and to Fez, we did a week trip with 'Morroco Enjoy Travel' who organised the whole journey.The first night after a wonderful day of sightseeing from Tangier, Chefchuan and the amazing city of Fez we arrived at this beautiful Riad, A warm welcome and being treated to a mint tea and after washing off the trail dust we were served a traditional evening meal on the roof terrace overlooking the centre of Fez. A good night's sleep in comfortable rooms with amazing arquitecture made a good impression on us. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality and warmth. We will Definitely return to this Riad

Great people. I had a health problem with my kid arriving late at night, and we had to rush to the hospital. Hassan came with us, and stayed with us for two or three hours to help us in the hospital. They were always available for all our needs. The place is nice and traditional. Breakfast is delicious. Great value for money. Highly recommend!! Max punctuation!

We cannot thank the hosts enough for the great welcome and the overall experience. Their Riad is in the new part of the town, but even if you don't have a car (they offer parking btw) taxis in Fes are relatively cheap. A ride from the riad to the medina would cost you as little as £2.50. This place is like a modern villa, with a luxurious vibe, very quiet and peaceful. The owners are always open to chat and give advices about what to see or where to go, and the cuisine is absolutely fabolous. Breakfast is hands down one of the best I've ever had in my life and definitely the best I had in Morocco. We also dined there one night and it was delicious! Cannot recommend this enough to anybody.

Très bon accueil d'un hôte parlant parfaitement le français et très serviable. La chambre est très propre et spacieuse et la salle de bain est correcte. Le petit déjeuner est excellent, varié, avec des gâteaux faits "maison". Excellente adresse pour un prix très doux ! Très bonne situation géographique. A conseiller vivement !
