Riad Sabah

Can only say this hotel was good in every way

我非常不開心的一點是，第一天早上，我知道民宿不含早餐，所以出門已經走到了街上，碰到了老闆，把我叫住，問我為什麼不吃早餐，「It's included」. 我再三確認It's included, 然後回民宿吃了早餐。結果離店的時候收到一張額外的100 迪拉姆賬單，老闆說是你的早餐。質問不是再三確認included 嗎？老闆開始用手語推脫他不懂英文，用google 翻成他的語言，開始裝**不能閱讀。 就這點我非常、非常、非常不爽。不是數額的問題。

I had an outstanding experience at Riad Sabah. Miriam greeted me right away at the door and I was served tea in a beautifully tiled area adjacent to the courtyard pool while she got me checked in. After the stress of traveling, this was so much appreciated! I was shown my room (a solitaire), which was beautifully decorated and air conditioned. I asked if I could book an appointment in the hammam, which she set up for 4:00. I did a 30 minute scrub and a 30 minute massage for $35. The person at the hammam was highly attentive. Miriam also arranged for a walking tour of Fez ($35) for 10:00 the next morning. My tour guide took me all over city, including to see the Jewish quarter where I got to see inside the ancient synagogue (25 dirhams for the ticket), and even was showed an ancient torah. I also got a tour of a ceramic/tile artisan workshop. In the old medina I got to visit the tannery and see the inside of a shop in a dar with enormous beautiful rugs. Miriam arranged for my taxi to the airport and she even allowed for my bill to be split into part cash and part credit card so that I didn't have to change any money back into dollars. I went swimming in the pool twice (the colored lights at night are nothing short of magic!) and enjoyed breakfast poolside--the best breakfast I have had in Morocco. The Riad is located on a deadend street which means very peaceful sleeping, but it's only a five minute walk from several different entrances to the Medina. I could not recommend this experience more highly. Booking directly through the website or by calling will save you more than 50% as opposed to going through a booking website such as ***********.

Riad Sabah is a sanctuary from the busy-ness of Fes, tucked away but still close. I had a very pleasant stay here in a single room with all the amenities I needed. The staff are attentive, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and was a great start to the day, with a fruit salad, yoghurt, breads and conserves. I had a private hammam on site which was arranged within a couple of hours (has to be pre-heated) and was excellent.
