Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

What a unique and unexpected experience. We stayed here 2 nights as part of our tour. The staff are very helpful, the food is delicious. Breakfast is not buffet, they serve you. If you want eggs, just ask! My only recommendation would to be an explanation of what is going to happen, I like to just drink coffee first then eat, the food was just brought out so was cold by the time I ate it. If you stay here, our guide suggested we not leave the hotel or we would be lost. Loved the opportunity to stay here! Thank you!

Our small group had a very warm welcome by the management, and we were escorted to our respective rooms. They were all different and were very comfortable and quiet. Nice bathroom. Great rooftop area. This place is right in the Medina, so it's best to have help finding it and getting your bags there. Lovely restaurant with a great dinner and traditional Moroccan breakfast. Highly recommended.

Wonderful introduction to Morocco! This beautiful, intimate riad and staff are top-notch. Beds are comfortable, breakfast and dinner very tasty. The courtyard is serene. The medina location is convenient. Manager Karine Orfila greeted us and was available if needed during our 4-night stay. After two weeks in-country, our group of four decided it was very high on our list of favorites; if/when we return to Marrakech, we won't hesitate to book with Riad Idra again!

We spent three nights at this beautiful riad in the heart of the medina in Fes. From our initial welcome with traditional Moroccan mint tea served by the delightful Ba Mohammed, every member of staff was outstanding which really made our stay memorable. Special shout out to Younnes. The daily evening turn down service with chocolates was a nice touch. The roof top is a relaxing space for a cold beverage after the madness of the medina. The breakfast served is plentiful and is a traditional Moroccan one. If we had any criticism, it would be that a room on the ground floor, adjacent to the courtyard where breakfast is served, is, obviously, a bit noisy in the morning. This wasn’t an issue for us except for one morning when there was a particularly noisy group of guests. We had been told on check-in that we could change rooms if the noise was a problem. A fabulous riad which we would highly recommend and would definitely return to on any future visit back to Fes.

The Palais Amani was a charming hidden gem. It is right next to the Sook and is in a great location. The room was lovely, spacious and well-appointed. The staff could not have been better. We would highly recommend the Palais Amani

This hotel is an authentic centuries old private residence, carefully converted into a hotel. Each room is completely different and some are two stories. Our two story room had a sitting/living room area with a full bathroom. Upstairs a very comfortable king bed and smaller bathroom. It was a delight to stay here as you felt totally a part of Morocco. I wasn't a fan of the fixed breakfast menu, but it was authentic Fes, Morocco. Be sure and have the bar send your evening cocktail to the outdoor terrace roof garden for wonderful sunset views across the city. You might consider a cooking class on the roof garden as well.

Non staying guests, we booked a Hamman experience at Palais Amani. The booking and payment process was fluid. On arrival we found the service to be a wonderful combination of professional, attentive, friendly and relaxing - hard to get right so thumbs up all round ! It was clear that the massage therapists were trained and knowledgeable and everything ran like clockwork. Would happily return and without reservation, recommend to others. Many thanks

I warm welcome greeted us as we arrived at the hotel. Everything had run smoothly with our driver meeting us at the airport who whisked us away to the hotel after a night long journey. Mint tea and home-made cookies were served immediately in the magnificent courtyard garden that also houses the reception and dining room. You immediately know you’re in Morocco due the tiled walls, central fountain and lush vegetation. Nothing was too much trouble as we were shown to our large spacious suite. Five days of 5* service, the staff were impeccable hosts. We wallowed in the luxurious hamam enjoying a relaxing massage & facial to start the destress from London life. A lovely 3 course dinner in the garden restaurant completed our first day. A half day sightseeing tour around the Medina ensured we gained our bearings for future exploration as well as giving us a plotted history of this ancient city. The cookery course along with the foodie trip to the markets sampling and buying the ingredients we cooked was the highlight of the trip. We went to several recommended restaurants and didn’t have a dodgy experience once - each had fabulous food in beautiful surroundings. I would highly recommend a trip to both Fes (so much nicer than Marrakesh) and the wonderful Palais Amani. Thankyou everyone who made our 5 day holiday a truly special experience.
