Nice Riad, convenient location, no shower

Beautiful Riad with an easy location to walk to after getting dropped off 150M from the road. Ground floor rooms lack privacy from people in the courtyard of the Riad. Bathroom did not have a shower, only a Tub with an attachment from the bottom making standing to shower not possible. Was told breakfast was not possible before 830am (had excursions planned early in the morning) so did not plan on breakfast, however people were eating before 8?

Exceptional beautiful Riad!

A beautiful Riad! Gracious hosts and service. I couldn’t get over the detailed, colorful tile mosaic work in our room and outside our door , where we had the opportunity to sit in a beautiful sitting area to have mint tea or wine. Dinner one night was great and lovely that breakfast was included! Oh and don’t forget about the pool on roof deck.

Magnifique Riad rénové avec énormément de goût. Les propriétaires et le personnel chaleureux ont été très accueillants et aidants. La nourriture, préparée avec amours, était délicieuse. Pas la peine d’aller manger ailleurs. Endroit calme et reposant. Superbe terrasse avec piscine sur le toit. On aurait pu y passer plusieurs jours sans vouloir en sortir. J’espère y revenir un jour. Merci!

Riad Semlalia is a true oasis in the middle of the bustling Fes medina, with stunning rooms and inner courtyard, beautiful rooftop terrace with a pool, and the best breakfast we had in Morroco. Abdul was also a fantastic host, always available to help and upgraded us at no cost. The location is a bit far from the centre of the medina and most restaurants but definitely within walking distance and easily accessible by car (though we didn't always feel comfortable with the men lingering around the streets and trying to hassle us).

Das Riad ist eine Oase der Ruhe, wirklich toll hergerichtet und war für uns der perfekte Mix aus landestypischem Flair und modernen Elementen. Unser Zimmer war eines der kleineren (Warda), für einen kurzen Aufenthalt aber völlig ausreichend, immer sauber und gut (schall-)isoliert. Das Frühstück (dies war hauptsächlich süß mit div. Marmeladen - es gab aber auch Eierspeisen, Oliven, Käse) wurde im Innenhof jeden Tag frisch serviert. Wunderschöne Dachterasse mit weitem Blick, modernem Pool und bequemen Liegen für die müden Beine nach Erkundung der Medina. Abdou und Team haben uns hervorragend umsorgt (inkl. Organisation Flughafentransfer sowie eines kundigen Guides)! Wir können das Riad uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
