Our stay in Fes was brief, too brief, but it was the highlight of our trip across southern Spain to Morocco and then France. The Dar Sghira house proved to be the perfect place for us to unwind from the excitement and fatigue of travel and of exploring the medina. We were very comfortable there. I especially enjoyed the view from the rooftop patio. Our guide Mohamed shepherded us around the city and to several artisanal cooperatives to see artists at work with textiles, leather, fragrances, ceramics, etc. He was an excellent companion and gave us a wealth of information, matching the level of our interest in history. We got a keen sense of the medina as a living community, not just a museum, even though it has such a storied past. We chose to have multiple meals prepared by Fatima to eat in the home, and we took a cooking class with her, which was enjoyable (and rewarding!). She also helped us with the arrangements for the hammam. We were grateful for all she did.

A great spot in an amazing city. The apartment is apparently at least 300 years old, and has a huge amount of character. And an amazing view from a terrace. It's an incredible spot. As with anything in Fez, there are stairs. Also the Medina does not allow cars, and the apartment is near the heart of Medina, so it does involve considerable walking to get there. But the host Oustad will meet you at the parking lot outside the Medina gates with a cart for your luggage, and show you all the ropes. Fatima also made some amazing local meals for us, she was a great cook. All in all a 5 star experience!

Sehr authentisches, etwas märchenhaftes Riad inmitten der Medina von Fes
Sehr authentisches, etwas märchenhaftes Riad inmitten der Medina von Fes
Das Riad ist etwas verwinkelt mit engen Treppen und kleinen Räumen, die dem Haus einen einzigartigen Charakter verleihen. Die zwei Bäder sind sehr klein (Waschbecken und Toilette sind, wie teilweise auf Schiffen, in die Duschkabine integriert). Es hat eine Dachterrasse mit Blick über Fes. Aufgrund der Lage mitten in der Medina braucht man einen guten Orientierungsinn, um das Haus (wieder-) zu finden. Die Souks schliessen in Fes recht früh und die Medina ist abends recht ausgestorben außer mit äußerst penetranten Jungs, die einen den (falschen) Weg weisen möchten.

Fes la merveilleuse

Nous tenons à remercier Mohammed pour son accueil sympathique et instructif ainsi que sa disponibilité durant notre séjour. Nous remercions également Fatima qui nous a si bien nourri matin et soir. Elle est non seulement une excellente cuisinière mais aussi une personne très attachante. Quant à la Dar Sghira, c'est une maison très agréable où tout est prévu pour les hôtes (même la balance pour peser les valises bien chargées d'artisanat fassi lorsqu'on repart). Ce logement est vraiment parfait pour déambuler dans tous les quartiers de Fes et en visiter toutes les splendeurs. La terrasse sur toit et la vue sont très jolies.

Típica casa en la Medina
Típica casa en la Medina
Casa cómoda, con todos los servicios disponibles: internet, TV satelite, cocina completa, camas muy confortables etc. Mohamend muy amable y servicial y Fátima una gran cocinera, especialmente recomendables sus desayunos. El único problema, por lo que no le damos un cinco, es porque la única ventilación grande de la casa entra por la claraboya del techo y no se podía abrir por algún problema, supongo que temporal, lo que hacía que la casa tuviese poca ventilación.
