Riad Laaroussa, Fez

Elegant decor, comfortable, good breakfast, and safe. Overall very pleasant. Hammam highly recommended: clean and professional staff.

Water pressure and hot water in the Terrace room are low in bathtub. Beware of steep stairs (not a problem for us).

It was a wonderful property made perfect by the wonderful staff. The manager, Othmane was absolutely terrific and he ensured our stay was memorable . I would highly recommend this Riad.

Staff was great. The porters in particular were exceptional (gentleman with the beard deserves a double exceptional). Breakfast was great, so too, the hammom. The staff was wonderful and it made for a great experience. Highly recommended

The only issue was a stuck pop up drain which disabled one of our sinks during our stay. The staff fixed it once but it stuck again almost immediately.

This riad was absolutely stunning! The beautiful design and intentionality with the rooms were amazing.

Beautiful Riad with an amazing garden. The room was on the main level. It was spacious with a soaring ceiling and an amazing bathroom.

The green room specifically is located under the stairs everyone takes to access the upstairs rooms and rooftop terrace. The noise of people on the stairs echoes loudly through the room.

This was possibly the most beautiful Riad that we stayed in across our three weeks in Morocco. The central courtyard was stunning - including the resident turtles - and our room was equally impressive. Although I would admit we stayed in probably the most expensive suite in the hotel (the Terrace Suite). The restaurant on the roof was also very beautiful.

The only fly in the ointment, and I suspect it was a error by Booking.com rather than the Riad, but for one night one of our rooms (we were two couples) was double booked. But the hotel was very swift in correcting the problem and making up for it. so yes there was a 'blip' but they recovered extremely well.

We loved everything about this hotel. The entrance hall is awesome, room was very nice, fantastic view from the rooftop and nice swimming pool. Attentive staff. This was our favourite accommodation in Morocco.

Loved the decor of the hotel, the unique rooms, the pool and terraces. The riad is actually several riads stitched together beautifully with a lovely central courtyard. They helped arranged a tour and made it extremely easy to park and have our luggage taken to the riad when we arrived and departed. The terrace room we had was absolutely amazing.

Dinner was just ok.

This property is a gem! Behind an unassuming entry, this Riad feels like a palace, with a serene tiled courtyard with a fountain and trees. Our room was extremely comfortable, the restaurant and food excellent, and the property offered many areas for relaxation and enjoyment, including a Hammam. We felt we received extremely good value for the money. But what set this Riad apart from all the others we stayed in were the staff. Without exception, they were warm, helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. They made our stay in Fez one we will always remember with a smile.

Everything was wonderful.

Staff are nice and super helpful. Decor of the hotel is very beautiful! Room was clean and comfortable.

Beautiful Riad, great staff and location.

The stairs are hard work for older folks.

The owner has done a remarkable job restoring the Riad to its original charm. The décor, especially the red room, was stunning, and every common space had its own unique character. From the reception area to the salon, we truly appreciated the artistic details. Surrounded by trees and water features, the atmosphere was serene and peaceful. The food was excellent as well. My wife and I regret not leaving a tip before we rushed off to catch our flight, but we look forward to returning—and this time, we’ll be sure to thank the staff properly.

At times, the staff would gather together, and the conversations could get a little loud. However, they remained very professional and attentive when serving guests.

The riad is beautiful and stylishly decorated. The swimming pool is delightful and the staff was super attentive. They were able to arrange car services for us. The in-house restaurant was great.

Staff is wonderful Food is yummy Location is perfect Architecture/decor is the perfect blend of tradition and modernity.

There is nothing I did not like

Simple the best Riad

The staff were wonderful, the rooms were very spacious and the large pool was so nice to come home to after a day out exploring. The food at Bistro Laaroussa was delicious and the fact that they provided a guide to walk with us if we were eating out somewhere new, was so appreciated and such a great service. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Beautiful Riad in the middle of the medina. Gorgeous pool/spa, gorgeous rooftop, gorgeous food, gorgeous rooms - gorgeous everything…even a gorgeous tortoise! Staff are top class and cannot do enough for you, but are not overly intrusive. There is a real team spirit among staff which really adds to the laidback, happy atmosphere! Looking forward to returning here soon, and many thanks to all who work in Riad Laaroussa for making our stay so special!

Second time in this riad, my favourite in the whole country! Great location, great staff, great food! Spacious and comfortable rooms, beautiful swimming pool, very helpful staff. Will be back!

Great riad, beautifully decorated, nice staff and good location

-

An excellent hote l in the heart of t he medina. The staff, without exception, ywere extremely welcoming and attentive.

It has it all Special thanx to the front disc girls fatema hajer and gayta they made our stay even better Location / comfort / food / swiming pool all are great The kids loved it and donot forget to take pic in every Corner ❤️ it was magical

Esperienza autentica di charme e confort

The design and decorations are very stylish. The facilities are superb. The manager will get out of his way to make every client happy and served. We slept in and missed out on the breakfast but as soon as he found out we missed our breakfast, in less than 5 mins, he was knocking on our door offering breakfast. I would return only for that exceptional care and service.

The entire hotel was perfect but the medina and the location of the riad was challenging to find.

Riad Larousse is magnificent, renovated with taste, a gem of a place within Fez' Medina (location is exceptional btw). Rooms are spacious and beds super comfortable, the garden is an invitation to chill and relax, and the pool the best place to spend your afternoon on hot day! You could just spend days and days in there, relaxing by the pool, being pampered at the Spa or reading one of all those books available in the Riad. Special mention for the outstanding service: staff is helpful, nice and always ready to help.

A beautifully restored ryad in a great location. The staff, particularly Othmane, made it exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and he went out of his way to be helpful and kind to us and our kids. Could not recommend more highly.

Everything was wonderful. The staff, the room, the food. Every detail was considered and it shows. The best place I have stayed in Morocco. Ottoman (sp?) is a wonderful manager and cares about the quality of his work and takes time to check in with guests to make sure they are comfortable. He is the epitome of hospitality and every single staff member I interacted with was warm, caring, and genuine. Can’t say enough wonderful things about this place and I will recommend to everyone I know. Thank you so, so much!

I wish I stayed longer.

What a lovely experience! We would definitely recommend Riad Laaroussa.. one of the most beautiful hotels we’ve been to with lovely staff, lovely breakfast, wonderful rooftop,… Bonus: the full staff was extremely kind for our 1yo babygirl. We hope to come back in the future

Rooms and restaurant were both amazing

Nothing

Everything but the shower.

The water pressure in the shower was too low, and the fluctuating water temperature made showers quite uncomfortable. However, this wasn't a problem in other parts of the bathroom, such as the sink or bathtub.

Everything about our stay was wonderful. We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was excellent -- one of our top meals in Morocco. The hosts were also wonderfully kind and helpful. The Riad is in a great location, separated from the crowds but still very close by. I would highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay again if we came back!

Nothing, it was all outstanding!!

Magical riad - beautifully decorated with huge rooms - in a great location in the Medina. Wonderful staff. Lovely rooftop restaurant, gorgeous pool. Couldn't recommend more!

Nothing!

Every part of it - The most beautiful Riad in Fes. Every tiny detail is noticed. The staff are excellent. I couldnt have been happier.

Loved it all

These was an exceptional hotel. The room was comfortable and the rooftop offered a beautiful view of the city. The staff were all helpful and accommodating. The location was convenient to both visiting the Medina and tour pickups.

Nothing!

The staff is very kind and the food is really good.

We had our room in the attic. It was very small and the steps are very steep. It was very hard to climb up.

Beautiful accomodation, pool with sun, licensed restaurant and bar, in the Medina, helpful staff

Nothing

The breakfast setting on the rooftop!

Laaroussa is the most gorgeous riad with wonderful staff, excellent food and stunning rooms and public areas. The pretty courtyard and exotic gardens around the pool were lovely places to spend time in. We loved it!

Nothing

Fantastic room, like nothing we’ve ever stayed in… really gorgeous and huge (green suite). We had the fire lit most nights, which added to the ambience. The pool was lovely, and the staff were exceptional. Special thanks to Rita and osman for looking after us so well.

Riad Lasroussa is perhaps the most beautiful place I've ever stayed. The rooms are luxurious. Additional lounging spaces and a fabulous rooftop with excellent restaurant are a impressive. Breakfast is generous and delicious. The staff is professional and utterly responsive. I've never enjoyed a stay more.

I wish I could live at this place.

the most beautiful building, restored and decorated with exceptional taste and attention to detail. the nicest staff ever. we would love to be back sometime soon.

Excellent Riad located in the heart of the medina. Upon arriving by car, a porter was sent to pick us up and to help transport our luggage through the alleyways, which was extremely helpful. Once entering Riad Laaroussa, you will become overwhelmed with a sense of calmness and tranquility…the staff exceeded all our expectations with their friendliness and attention to detail. The Blue Room was so very beautiful and clean. Breakfast on the rooftop is not to be missed. Cannot recommend Riad Laaroussa enough!

Water pressure in the shower could be stronger but is a minor issue.

It was bueatiful and the staff were gracious and helpful

Nothing

very very nice riad, excellent staff and services, highly recommended

Very helpful, friendly, flexible and accommodating staff! Great location in the Medina, about 10 mins by foot to the next major gate with road access.

Staff was very friendly. The whole architecture and decor of the Riad was gorgeous and modern. The reception/concierge was very helpful and they went above and beyond helping us plan our stay in Fez. They even helped me book an activity in a different city. The Riad recommended an excellent tour guide (Bushtan), who took us on a great tour through the Medina. Highly recommended stay!

The staff went above and beyond when my husband contracted COVID while staying at the hotel. They arranged for a lab tech to come from a laboratory to perform the test. When he tested positive they provided all meals in our room and continually checked on him. Can't say enough about the level of service. This property is beautiful and the breakfast was excellent.

The riad is beautiful! The architecture is gorgeous!

Nothing

What an absolutely stunning riad. We’ve travelled to Morocco over 8 times in Marrakech, Fez, Tangier and Chefchaouen, but this riad is just magical from the moment you walk into the courtyard and pass through its beautifully decorated interiors. Beautifully crafted, relaxing pool (rarity in medina), top rated bistro serving fantastic food/wine and staff/owners that go out of their way to help you. I cannot recommend this place enough - if you’re in Fez make sure you book this riad!

Nothing! Note - There are a lot of steps which could be more challenging for elderly people to navigate, but the riad is in the process of having a lift installed. Regardless - don’t let this put you off!

Lovely surroundings, very peaceful and fabulous roof terrace

Lots of steps!
