Riad Laaroussa

Hotel

We (husband and three small children) absolutely loved our stay at Riad Laaroussa. The staff was unfailingly warm and accommodating. The location and the building itself—sanctuary-like, beautiful courtyard and amazing rooftop breakfast/lounge/bar, lovely little pool—could not have been better. We highly recommend this place for a stay in Fez.

Fabulous. We had the green suite that overlooks the RC of the inner court. Probably the most beautiful of the Riad with its 2 gigantic glass doors and its fireplace. Authentic character. In addition 2 nice Labrador dogs that greet us…
We had three meals on site. It was excellent. The evening meal one of the best we took in Morocco. Go there without hesitation and ask for the Green suite:) )

The Riad garden is beautiful with friendly staff. The Hamman associated with the hotel is worth a visit. We scheduled an appointment and spent several hours in the steam, getting scrubbed and then massaged. My wife and I enjoyed this bit of pampering that had our skin glowing.

My favorite riad! Thanks to the guide Rachid for letting me know!

Very nice place with some cosy fireplaces. Unluckily for us, we went to Marokko during the most coldest time in years and the Riad was not meant to withhold such constraints : we were cold the whole of our stay as the rooms did not have proper isolation and heating, which is by the way expected in a land of (usually) hot weather…

Don't judge a book by its cover. From the street this place looks like a big old door but once you enter it's astoundingly beautiful. The center court yard is just so big and yet so peaceful with trees and fountains. I came here for the message in there steam rooms … it's not bad I guess, it was my first time so not sure what I was getting my self into. If you are passing by and want to get rubbed down hard with a abrasive mitt it's worth a try. For me it was just okay compared to other countries message technics. This is also a hotel and if you can afford it it's worth a stay just to be in this place.

Stayed here for 1 night and wish I had extended my stay in Fes. An amazing city, a little bit more laid back than Marrakesh. Riad Laaroussa was the best Riad I stayed in during my 3 week trip to Morocco. The service, ambiance, food, and hospitality was 5+ stars. I have a friend coming to Fes in a few months and recommended the Riad to her and her family. The rooms are beautiful and have a modern bohemian feel. We received complimentary babouches and robes in our room. Amazing service and hope to visit again soon. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Loved my stay here. Lovely family run hotel with friendly helpful staff. Romantic beyond belief, a tranquil bolt hole from the busy Medina. Great breakfast and evening meals. Very well appointed, with a shaded pool, rooftop dining and rest areas and a cool central quadrangle.

Beautiful Riad. Wonderful and very hospitable staff. We got dinner here last minute on two nights. The riad itself is beautiful with several fireplaces all around and a stunning rooftop and pool. The room was very clean, with a safe, rose perfume, several towels, and a comfy bed If only I stayed in Fes one more day to enjoy the facilities more.

Eating dinner on the patio was magical. The food versus price value calculation missed the mark a bit. It was nice that they had drinks as an option. The hotel facilities looked very first class, but we didn't stay overnight.

My wife and I stayed here in November 2016, and our stay was magical. The service was exceptional… every single staff member was always eager to assist in any way. They set us up with an amazing tour guide who gave us an exceptional tour of the riad and helped us find the right place purchase rugs, leather jacket, and more. The massage was amazing. The food at dinner and the breakfast on the roof were both delicious and atmosphere and view amazing. The new pool was so refreshing. Also, the two lazy labs that are the house dogs made us feel so at home. We will definitely stay here again if/when we make it back to Morocco.

We stayed at the cream suite. They were prompt at our complaint and ver attending. Really nice place and beautiful terrace. The terrace was the best part of Fez.

Wow, this place does customer service as well as the Germans make cars. It's like a well oiled machine designed around you. Sure it's expensive, and the hammam isn't that steamy (lost a star on that), but every other Riad should be taking tips from these guys.

The riad is beautiful and the staff are so friendly and great. We went there for the spa and it was amazing. Beautiful and very clean venue. The team at the spa was very good and hospitable.

Beautiful, comfortable Riad in an excellent location. 5 star staff and amenities. Clean, well-maintained property. Beautiful pool.

RL is an amazing and lovely place where you can feel relaxed and cherished. I just love and adore being there. Great job guys.

Best experience ever in fes so nice and comfy and beautiful.

Stayed for 2 nights while in Fez and can honestly say it was amazing. The place is beautiful and has extremely friendly staff. It's location is in the heart of the medina too. Highly recommended.

A fantastic place! I took a massage & hammam and it was incredible. People is so welcoming there. I truly enjoyed. Thank you for the mint tea.

The most memorable thing about Morocco and about Fes is how warm and friendly the people are. This was as true at Riad Laaroussa as was everywhere else. The owners Cathy and Fred and their staff went out of their way to take care of their guests every need — everything from arranging guides and booking restaurants to ensuring we had meds and a place to stay on after we ended up a little unwell. Riad Laarousa is a gorgeous and small boutique hotel of just 8 rooms in the middle of the old medina. We stayed in the Orange Room and then in the Green Suite and they are both quite large and very artfully decorated. From the terrace, there are gorgeous views not just of the medina itself but also the hill sides — it's a perfect place to watch the sun set over the city at dinner — joined perhaps by the two very adorable (and calm) labs that also call the riad home. The meals at the riad itself are traditional and delicious — and if you like, they also have informal classes where you can also try you hand at cooking a traditional tajine (although this is not something I tried). The riad also has a small hammam and massage. One thing that especially struck us is the owners love and commitment to Fes. The children's library just outside the riad that they started is the first in the medina and is just one of the projects they've started to help have a positive impact on the lives of people in their community.

Riad perfect in everything. Tasteful design rooms very large and nicely decorated! staff and fantastic food.

A very nice Riad in the heart of the Medina.
