Hotels in Fes

There are a number of different Fès hotels to suit every pocket and taste. One of the best ways to soak up the city’s atmosphere is staying in a riad, a large traditional house based around a central courtyard. Converted into hotels, riads are often beautifully decorated and provide intimate-sized accommodation, personal service and authentic home-cooked food.

The hotels in Fès below have been grouped into three different price categories:
Luxury (1,250 to 2,250 dirhams)
Moderate (850 to 1,250 dirhams)
Cheap (under 850 dirhams)
These rates are based on double occupancy of twin or double room at standard rate, including breakfast for two and taxes.
