Dar Tresor, Traditional Moroccan riad and restaurant in the historic medina, Fès, Morocco.
Dar Tresor is a restaurant and hotel in a traditional Moroccan riad building that has been preserved in the Old Medina of Fès. The building combines retained handcrafted details like zelij tilework, plaster patterns, and cedarwood carvings with modern conveniences for guests.
The building was originally constructed as a private residence for wealthy Fès families and its architectural features reflect 18th-century construction methods. Converting it into a hotel preserved the original room layouts and handcraft techniques that define that era.
The establishment is valued by locals who enjoy traditional dishes like tajine and couscous prepared according to handed-down recipes. The dining spaces reflect a food culture where shared meals and connection with other guests take center stage.
The building is within walking distance of the Bab Boujloud gate and the historic souks, making it easy to explore the oldest parts of the medina on foot. Visitors should expect narrow alleyways and wear comfortable shoes when navigating the area independently.
The rooftop terrace offers panoramic views of the medina minarets and surrounding Zerhoun mountains from above. This is a private retreat where guests can enjoy mint tea in quiet while watching the landscape unfold.
