Authentic palace and spa was incredible! Great location, very clean and very beautiful. The staff was so accommodating. One of the best places we stayed in our 3 weeks in Morocco!
The property was really pretty and clean. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Asma treated us like family and went out of her way to make us feel at home and safe. We would definitely stay here again.
Fue increible la atencion, el lugar, los cuartos, todo. Nos ayudaron a tener todo lo necesario para nuestro viaje. El staff muy amigable y hablaba varios idiomas. Lo recomiendo mucho
We visited a beautiful, and still authentic city of Fez in Morocco. We highly recommend, to everybody who is thinking about traveling to Morocco, to visit the charming Fez and and a stay in the Riad of Authentic Palace and Spa. It is a gorgeous, old charm Riad with a fantastic people. Soultan, Hamza and Salah at the Riad made us feel completely at home. They made possible for us to visit the desert and have an experience of camel trekking. Hamza took us to the beautiful city of Chechaouen.
We highly recommend the city and the Authentic Palace and Spa.
My husband and I stayed in this gorgeous Riad in old Fez. Our room was exceptional and very comfortable. There is also a beautiful view from the roof terrace. Services were excellent - they picked us up from the train station, arranged a half day tour of the Medina with a reputable guide for us, and taught us how to make delicious traditional Moroccan dishes. They also had spa services, but we didn't stay long enough to take advantage of that. We loved everything about our stay here.
If you are looking for the riad experience, this is a great place to get it. Incredibly friendly staff, and a beautiful facility. The only downside is the conversations in the central court and on the street outside can be a bit loud, but you are going to get that at any riad worthy of the name.
