Conveniently located to lots of restaurants, the Medina and the old walls around the city. We walked everywhere (even the Mall that had a Burger King and a Carrefour). The Riad was quiet at night, which surprised me somewhat as we had a room off Reception area. The staff bent over backwards to accommodate our special requests, coffee brought our room at 8am and glasses with ice at 8pm.

The pillows were not soft at all and I would also ask for hangers for the armoire.

The Riad is very nice and our room was beautiful and spacious. It is very well located to walk around the Medina and the terrace is super nice.

Complimentary tea is offered the first day, which is nice, but when I ordered tea another day, they charge almost 4EUR, 4 times what you will be charged anywhere else. Was never sure if this was the menu price indeed or if the guy serving on the terrace just randomly decided to charge me that. It is anyway not much but the gesture is what counts.

Good breakfast, polite staff, nice terrace, big room, nearby parking.

Bad smell in the barhroom.

Zakaria has been very kind and helpful. The riad is in a very good position.

location is very near to blue gate and medina in general . looks beautiful. there's a restaurant on the hotel and many nearby . rooms were comfortable though .

breakfast is very late in morning ( esp if you have tours planned that leave early) they unnecessarily try to sell you tours to medina and sahara . no receipt for money given , i still don't know the name of camp and the tour agency through which we went . we had surprise after surprise during the trip. itinerary was altered. last day we were moved with a van from people of different itinerary. 200€ for a tour from fes to sahara . didn't see ifran , rose valley , ourzazate , ait bin haddou or anything. although the camps were green but you can yourself book a supra tour bus from fes to merzouga and book desert camps yourself for half the price . same with the tour guide to medina , we only went to different shops so they can sell us things and to hammams and restaurants. no history about the places whatsoever.

I love everything. It is a great place. staff are very friendly, helpful and happy. Highly recommended. Really love there. The location is perfect.

Very good riad and a very good welcome from zakariae. Very good location and good, recommendation of a guide for the medina, very good advice for a private excursion to Chefchaouen. Very good restaurant of the riad on the terrace.

nothing to say

The location is excellent! No problems getting lost since it is near the main entrance, but it is still near everything you might want to go to. The staff are very nice. Zakariae helped us with information, and the girl serving breakfast on the roof terrace every morning was really nice and friendly. The room was beautifully decorated, as was the rest of the accommodation.

We had a room on the ground floor across from reception, so it was noisy at times when trying to get to sleep early (10pm or 11pm) but all noise generally stopped at midnight so it wasn't a big issue. Likewise with the light that comes into the room. It is hard to get to sleep before they are turned off (maybe 11pm or 11.30pm if I remember correctly). If there were curtains on the windows it would have solved this.

Nothing could have been any better! Riad 53 has a great host - Zacharia - who went the extra mile to provide us with an unforgettable stay! All the staff were, in fact, amazing and beyond helpful in every way, shape and form! The location is the best possible, right at the entrance to the old Medina - perfect to explore the Medina from scratch and to go for a ride out of the city. Riad 53 organizes your tours and gets you the most knowledgeable and amusing guides! Staying at this Riad was like staying with family - we made friends who we will definitely meet again!

Everything was amazing!

Amazing staff, very friendly and helpful.

This Ryad is wonderful and the hospitality superb. I recommend a lot if you visit Fez. Thanks a lot again

After 2 weeks spent in Morocco and many riads, I have to admin that this is the most authentic one: the room, the patio and terrace, as well as the location make this the perfect stay to be in Fes. All personell is very kind and helpful.

Unfortunately I found the wc unclean. I think it was just something that passed unseen considering that the other stuff in the room was clean.

We arrived late at night and Zakariae was there to help us with parking and check-in, which we really appreciated. The riad is easy to find, with a safe parking garage just down the road. It's in an excellent location with restaurants within walking distance.

Everything was perfect, thank you for your hospitality!

Everything during my stay in riad 53 was perfect from beginning to end. The staff help me with everything I needed, card for my phone, trip to other cities... They welcomed me with a moroccan tea and a good conversation. the room was big and well decorated, with all you need to have a perfect stay in Fes. The breakfast was very abundant, with many typical foods of Moroccan cuisine.

Everything was perfect.

great location and value for money.

some facilities are a bit old

Manager of the riad-(tahar), was very kind and helpful,also the other people. When I just came to the roliad they offered me cuscuz. The location of the riad is very good,is near the blue gate of the medina,and they have a nice view in the rooftop. I really recommend this riad!!!

I can honestly say that Road 53 exceeded my expectations. Firstly it is in a great location very near to the Blue Gate of the Medina. Like many riads, the exterior is unassuming, but once inside I was taken aback by the beautiful tile work, decorations and lighting. This elegant design also extended to the rooms, which were extremely comfortable and cool - a welcome respite from Fes summer heat. From the terrace you get quite a decent view of Fes, and they serve excellent breakfast up there. But where I found Riad 53 to truly excell was in the service. Zechariah was so so helpful throughout my stay. I was originally slated to arrive in Fes from Marrakech at 8:00 pm, but there was debris on the track just outside Marrakech that caused a significant delay. I didn't end up reaching Riad 53 until.near 11 pm. Zechariah was extremely flexible in handling the situation. Not only that, through him I was able to book bus tickets to Chefchaouen, make an appointment at a nearby hammam and even do laundry (which I was in desperate need of haha). Overall Zechariah and the staff of Riad 53 made my stay in Fes so comfortable it felt like a home away from home. I'm looking forward with staying with them again!

Great place to stay in Fes, just outside the Medina (so you can find it!) And stone's throw from the blue gate. Couldn't ask for more from Zacheri, and all the staff who were great. Had a surprisingly beautiful room for the price. Highly recommended!

Nothing, I loved the place!

Lovely Riad, nicely decorated, with a good breakfast and exceptional help from Zacharias. Zacharias gave us invaluable advice and was incredibly helpful.

The room smelt quite stuffy/damp. The coffee at breakfast could also be improved.

best stays in a very good Riad and Beautiful room comfortable beds and nice shower well located at the entrance of Medina and the blue door far 2 minutes walk and I really like the riad restaurant with a very nice view of medina and delicious meal and especially thanks to zakariae for that presentation and his help and the advice that we gave and that recommendation to take a guide to do the tour of the medina was really effective to visit the medina quietly and impossible to remember the way alone his request help and especially beware of the fake guides who are just waiting for you to get lost in Medina to scam you and ask for money to show you the way back to the Riad,I recommend this riad and visit Fez.

Go back home😔

Very good value for money. Convenient location. Beautiful and elegant. Nice view over the roof top. Best breakfast in Morocco.
