Riad Laaroussa, Guest house in the medina of Fès, Morocco.
Riad Laaroussa is a restored 17th-century mansion in the heart of the Fès medina with spacious rooms arranged around a central courtyard featuring orange trees and traditional Moroccan tilework. The building combines original architectural details with modern conveniences including heating and a rooftop area for relaxation.
The building dates to the 17th century and was carefully restored to preserve its original architectural features while adding modern facilities. This adaptation reflects how homes in the medina have evolved over centuries to meet changing needs.
The guesthouse represents traditional Moroccan hospitality through its staff who facilitate visits to nearby historical sites and offer cooking experiences with fresh local ingredients. Guests can prepare regional dishes and connect with how people in this old quarter live.
The guesthouse sits within the narrow winding streets of the medina and requires a walk from nearby parking areas. Staff readily assist with transportation and help guests navigate the complex street layout.
The rooftop offers panoramic views over the medina with lounging spaces and a shower area, while elegant suites feature fireplaces for colder months. This retreat allows guests to escape the intensity of the narrow streets below.
