Darif's Riad is a serene and comfortable place to make your home base while in Fes. Service is wonderful and friendly. The property is beautiful and has great ambiance. The only negative was I found the breakfast and one dinner I had there to be lacking, I was expecting better.

Le personnel est très serviable et gentil.
Le décors est magnifique.
Typique d'un Ryad.
Mais
problème avec la douche
On en met partout
et le ménage est moyen
le déjeuner tradionnel est limite. Il redonne des produits non mange la vieille.
Que l'on avait pas pris car il était brulé.
et surtout ne pas prendre de repas dans le ryad.
Ils sont très cher.
English:
The staff is very helpful and kind.
The décor is magnificent.
Typical of a Ryad.
But
Problem with the shower
We put it everywhere
and the cleaning is average
The traditional lunch is borderline. It gives back products not eats the old.
Which we hadn't taken because he was burned.
and above all not to have meals in the ryad.
They are very expensive.

We were pleasantly surprised and so impressed with the riad. Amazing space and delicious breakfast, and most importantly staff were extremely friendly. Someone helped picked us up from the main road and carried our luggages on our way in and our way out.
Highly recommend!

Beautiful Riad, Terrible Service
The Riad itself is exceptionally beautiful, and our room was nice. However, the service and organization were unprofessional and disappointing. They seemed to have forgotten our reservation, leading to a chaotic half-hour check-in delay and an unnecessary discussion about our prepaid status. My attempts to contact them beforehand about parking and directions were unanswered.
The room was assigned with a dirty bathroom (hair from a previous guest), and it took several hours and multiple reminders to get it cleaned so we could shower. After all of this, the general staff's attitude was equally poor; they were unfriendly and often ignored our greetings. The only saving grace was the good breakfast and friendly kitchen and cleaning stuff.

Riad med kultur
Meget smuk Riad, hvor der var brugt traditionel marrokansk håndværk og materialer til indretningen. Alt var meget smukt og gennemført. Dejligt værelse med stort badeværelse og køleskab.
Ligger lidt yderligt i forhold til hvad vi gerne ville se og opleve

Un séjour de rêve au cœur de la médina
Excellent séjour (trop court!!) de deux nuits dans ce riad magnifiquement rénové.
Points positifs:
Le parking. Le riad est situé à côté de Bab Guissa, il y a un parking payant surveillé et sécurisé juste avant d'arriver à Bab Guissa.
Facile à trouver. En rentrant ensuite dans la médina, on se laisse guider par les flèches sur les murs comme un jeu de piste!
L’accueil avec les serviettes rafraichissantes, le thé et les pâtisseries dans le hall magnifique, suivi de la visite guidée du riad
Les terrasses avec vue sur Fes
Les chambres et l'ensemble du riad, rénovées avec goût, dignes d'un musée des arts et traditions populaires
Le petit déjeuner
La (petite) piscine pour se rafraichir en fin de journée
La clim dans la chambre, très efficace!
Le service impeccable
Le tarif de l'hébergement
Points négatifs
Le seul point négatif n'est pas spécifique au riad mais s'applique aussi à toute la médina: à éviter pour les voyageurs à mobilité réduite ou qui ont du mal à monter les escaliers
