My wife and I spent two weeks in Morocco, and Fez was by far the best city we had the chance to experience. Although you need a life time for Fez alone. Karim and his daughter from Dar Hefsa were very welcoming and allowed us to really get a sense of the relaxed fassi life. The Dar himself is amazing,... More

It was our first time visiting Morocco and the family-run Dar Hafsa riad was an ideal intoduction to the country's famous hospitality. Visitors are made to feel so welcome that you might get the impression that you are staying wih a favourite uncle rather than a businessman. Copious glasses of mint tea are accompanied by friendly and essential advice about... More

Fantastic location with beautiful Moroccon decor in this Dar tucked away down a quiet residential alley. Lovely rooftop garden to look out over the city. Very clean and tidy and lovely room with great ensuite (very good shower). There are four guest rooms - I would recommend asking for one of the higher rooms. Karim is a great host and... More

Highly recommend this homely riad. Beautifully decorated in traditional crafts, materials, fabrics throughout, with roof terrace with great view across the medina to the hills beyond Fes. In a quiet location in the heart of the medina, a true oasis. Excellent value for money, welcome mint tea upon arrival and fabulous breakfast. Thank you Karim and family for a wonderful... More

Our train from Marrakech was 6 hours late (accident delay) getting into Fes. We were dead tired at 11pm so I can't tell you what a welcome sight it was to see Karim, the Riad Dar Hafsa owner, waiting for us at Bab Boujeloud Gate ready to escort us to his riad, a 5 minute walk away. The riad has... More

The hotel itself is lovely, a minutes walk from the hustle of the medina. It is clean, quiet, and elaborately decorated. The best part if staying here though is the owner Karim, who throughout your entire stay works tirelessly to make sure you are happy and informed about where to go, what to see etc. As part of a two...

A great riad experience in the heart of the medina, but away from the noise of the "commercial" hustle and bustle. Karim and his daughter were wonderful hosts, proving cultural insights into Fes and Morocco, advising us for our activities, organised an official guide for the medina when we requested and were just happy to chat with us any time....

I would definitely recommend this Riad. New to Fez the owner (Karim) was fantastic at making us feel comfortable and welcome. As two girls travelling alone the first few days in the busy medina can be quite daunting but Karim went out of his way to make sure we got the most out of our stay, visiting the tourist hot... More

The Dar Hafsa feels like home. Kareem and his staff are more than willing to give advice and any help they can to make your stay the best it can be. The rooms are comfortable and spacious.

They are friendly and generous. English, French, and Arabic languages are spoken well, along with some Spanish and German.
