Riad El Yacout

Truly an oasis in the center of Fes! We were greeted warmly with Moroccan mint tea and dinner even after a late arrival. Our accommodations were superb and the food and service were top notch. Best of all? Our friend Marcos made us feel 100% at home. Will be sending all our Moroccan-bound friends here!

Our stay at Riad El Yacout was amazing. From the minute that we walked in we felt the positive energy and incredible hospitality. The staff could not have been more engaging and helpful as they checked us in, dealt with our bags, and offered us a welcome tea and snack! The Riad is just beautiful with special touches of Morocco at every turn. The decor, pool and garden area and tile work made you feel as you had ventured back in time even though every modern convenience was there. Our room had a wonderful separate seating area as we walked in and the bedroom was decorated with spectacular Moroccan tile work. We were only there for 2 nights but the staff made us feel like royalty and family. We were able to have a few meals there and each was outstanding...there was so much food at the breakfasts it was amazing! We did not get their names but there was an older gentleman and a young woman who were at the main desk and both were extremely kind and helpful! The manager, Marcos, was an absolute bundle of energy who made an effort to get to know every guest. He spent time with us by the pool as we had a light dinner on our first night. It was great to get to know him and he made that night and each day very special for us! We loved watching Marcos and his team working so hard to make everyone feel like they were the most important person there. When Marcos walked us to our car on our last day I pulled him aside and said that I had worked with many great teams before and they all have one thing in common, they are a reflection of a very positive and supportive leader. Marcos and team - You Rock! We had a wonderful time and we highly recommend Riad El Yacout!

What a great place - the location, the rooms, the friendly service, the Hammam. I was with a group and we had a lovely time at the Riad, Marcos was so friendly and nice and made our time special. He sang, danced and would make us smile and enjoy our time.

Absolutely everything was spot on and the staff were extremely hospitable and ensured all our needs were met & went beyond our expectations. The food was exceptional! The hammam & other attractions that were suggested to us were also really good. Will definitely be recommending this Riad to friends.

Built in 1344, this guest house has no two rooms alike. Our room was very Moroccan! Beautiful mosaic tiles, and amazing ceiling and antique furnishings. The building has furniture that could be in a museum. All well maintained and in use. The staff is happy and friendly and very accommodating. This was a highlight of our trip to Morocco.
