The old medina of Fez contains traditional houses that now serve as accommodations. These riads are historic homes built around central courtyards, featuring typical Moroccan architecture with tiled roofs, decorated walls, small fountains, and quiet gardens. Rooms are furnished with traditional patterns and handcrafted details that show how Moroccan families have lived for centuries. Staying in a riad gives guests the chance to experience daily life inside a historic house rather than in a modern hotel. Bedrooms are individual and often simple, with traditional tile bathrooms. Many riads have gardens with trees and flowers, or rooftop terraces that look out over the city. Breakfast is usually served in the central courtyard where sunlight comes through the opening in the ceiling. Some riads add modern comforts like heated pools and spa services while keeping the traditional character of the spaces.
