Reviews

Pros: Fatima and Reda we're wonderful hosts, helping us with tours and navigation as well as seeing to all the details of our stay. The property is an absolutely stunning home first built in 1366 and then renovated nearly 600 years later in 1946. The mosaics, woodcarving and historical features of the home are a tribute to the artisianal feel that takes you back in time. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Cons: One of the unique features about the old cities in Morroco are the winding alleyways and dead ends. Dar Settash is in the heart of that area. Be patient while searching for the property can be a bit of a challenge to find at first. BTW, the Navi doesn't always work!

Pros: This hotel is ideal for a solo traveler. The room was very clean, with stable hot water and excellent Wi-Fi. I felt safe with good lighting and CCTV installed in the alleyway. The staff's hospitality was outstanding—they well took care of me, offered a great breakfast, recommended and arranged a wonderful day trip, and even helped me set up the \

Beautiful clean Rad in great location with the most helpful Manager we have come across.

Pros: Location was great, very quiet and very close to a main street in the Madina and less than 10 minutes from the Blue Gate. The manager was fantastic and sat down and explained everything about Fes and marked our map with all the things to see and gave us some restaurant suggestions and also helped us organise a private car to drive us to Rabat. The Rad is beautiful and felt very safe and secure and our room was very clean and large and the heater worked really well in January. The breakfast was great including pancakes, croissants, jam, honey, fresh juice, tea and coffee, more than you can possibly eat. Great views from the rooftop.

Cons: No negative comments.

Pros: Lovely place in central Fez (where the street Souks markets are) tucked back inside so no noise from the outside. Fantastic room with comfy high beds and heaps of character. They do generally treat you like family. Best place i stayed in Morroco and possibly elsewhere in terms of service and hospitality. Would stay again if visiting Fez again. Fatima and family staff will sort transfers and other touristy details for you and be good prices (not rip off tourist prices) Highly reccomended.

Cons: Nothing. All good

Great hosts, gorgeous Dar in fabulous location!

Pros: Reda and Fatima are terrific hosts, Fatima kindly explained to my taxi driver best mtg point for drop off and then met me and guided me through Medina to Dar. Reda was great at explaining all the key sites to visit during stay. I had three days at the Dar and it was the highlight of my visit to Morocco. I simply loved The Medina, no where near as touristy as Marrakech, especially in evening after daily tour buses have left. The breakfasts were delicious and kept me sustained until late afternoon! The Dar is beautiful inside and really is a pleasure to retreat to after the business of the Medina.

Cons: NA

Pros: We loved everything about our stay. Reda and Fatima made sure that every was was absolutely amazing for our stay. The room was excellent. The bed was especially comfortable. Breakfast was ample. I would really want to mention about Reda's hospitality. He gave us the lay of the land. Provided us with recommendations and even coordinated with our driver for pickup at the end of our stay. Very very very highly recommended.

Pros: Fatima and all the staff were very welcoming and helpful. They were available to answer questions, and gave great recommendations. The location is inside the medina and Fatima met us at our taxi to bring us right to the riad. All the highlights of Fes are easy walking distance and there happens to be an excellent restaurant across the street - Nghma Wa Tay. The riad itself is beautiful, the rooms are comfortable (we stayed in February and we were plenty warm), and the rooftop is perfect for both sunrise and sunset views.
