Riad Norma

The stay has been unbeatable. All the staff were very friendly; Younes and Btissam were delightful. The courtyard and the pool are an oasis in the heat of Fez; they saved us! The room was beautiful, with all the amenities; it is a small palace! It is about a 10-minute walk from the Medina. I highly recommend it!

What a great find! The restoration of this Riad has been top of the line, and the interior is supremely atmospheric. Located in a quiet part of town, the rooms are beautifully furnished with local crafts and very well appointed. Our walk-in shower was much appreciated after a long day of touring. A particularly beautiful feature of Riad Norma is the Islamic garden and swimming pool in the back. It was wonderfully serene to sit in the garden reading alongside the beautiful flora while the local songbirds did their spring thing. Lastly, the staff here deserve special notice. Younes, the manager, was very kind and incredibly helpful with questions and logistics. He even gave us a bottle of olive oil from his native region as a gift to take home. Btissam is your host at breakfast, and she responds to all your special requests with great efficiency and considerable personal charm. A 25-year veteran at Riad Norma, it was a pleasure to greet her each morning. Riad Norma is one of THE places to stay in Fes. We will return. Very highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed at Riad Norma for a couple of nights while in Fes. The riad is absolutely stunning the moment you walk in, nice big rooms, staff is very friendly and helpful, nice breakfast. Would recommend!
