Great location in a beautiful riad that was lovingly restored by the owner.

Stayed in April 2024

There was nothing we didn't like but two small things - a shower curtain or screen would be good because I flooded the bathroom floor every time I had a shower, and while the breakfasts were great, when staying for more than three or four nights, it would be good to have a change. Perhaps something savioury like eggs etc. Very small details though, certainly didn't take away from the whole amazing experienc.

Amazing property. It looks just like in the photos. The swimming pool was a beautiful area to sit and relax. The staff were all amazing - not only helpful but so friendly. We loved it so much we were booked into another riad for our last three nights but we cancelled and stayed the extra three nights at Norma.

Very beautiful, clean and comfortable riad. Wonderful rooms, breakfast and staff, and the manager Younes is simply the nicest guy in Morocco with excellent English. We will be happy to return here again!

We loved everything.

Loved the location just inside the Medina. Made it easy to load and unload luggage yet still be in easy walking distance of all the interesting parts of the Medina. The riad was charming and Monique and her staff were extremely welcoming. The rooms were large and beautiful. The breakfast was delicious. Great spot!

Excellent place, everything was stunningly decorated, clean and well thought out. Younes and their staff made us feel welcome and helped out with everything we needed.

Nothing really that we didn't like.

There really isn't anything bad to say about Riad Norma, we really enjoyed the whole stay and everything that came with it. The breakfast was delicious, healthy and the perfect amount to get our day going. It consisted of both sweet and savoury options. The rooms are clean, and beautifully designed. The host, Monique, and the staff are fantastic, and make sure you have a wonderful stay. The location is not so central, but we found it to be a good thing. About a 15 minute walk to the hustle and bustle region of the medina from the riad, is a perfect way to explore and experience the fabulous old city of Fes. Well done Riad Norma, and thank you again for having us in your lovely home!

Stayed in March 2024

Slightly far from the main action for going out in the evening after a days touring but it did mean we did our steps!!

Very pretty property with large comfortable rooms and big bathrooms. Lovely garden , small pool area for the hotter months. Liked the breakfast, cheese and yoghurt with fruit as well as the usual sweet options. Very nice staff particularly sweet were the breakfast ladies. Liked the location as easy to get to the gate which as we had to leave at 3.30 in the morning to catch a plane was very useful.

Well you could say the shower is not good for standing under, but it’s a hand shower for hair washing in the bath; and the bath is great. And they don’t do dinner, but there’s a helpful list of restaurants within 5-20 minutes walk. We tried 2 of the more expensive ones and they were great.

I don’t think there’s much more you could want. It’s a charming, relaxing environment; beautiful Moroccan decor, a real escape from the hustle of the medina. Very welcoming, friendly staff. We stayed in the Tosca suite; a huge, really comfy room. It’s on the edge of the medina, so generally quieter, but only about 20 minutes walk to the centre.

The staircase goes up and up and then some more! Possibly good for the heart.

Location near Bab Ziat is very convenient to get transport. Quiet locality about 10 minutes walk from central medina. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful heritage property with a pretty garden. Excellent breakfast among the best we had in Morocco. Fireplace at night. The list could go on. Noman, the manager got breakfast ready for us at 7 am and then helped us with our bags to the taxi. Exceptional service it is.

Nothing - the property is palatial.

The property is beautiful and atmospheric - the garden and pool are an oasis of calm from a the busy souks of Fes.

Stayed in February 2024

It is a good 15 minute walk from most of the restaurants and action. For us that was a negative but could be perfect if you want a lovely , quiet escape!

Beautiful Riad with stunning outdoor space and rooftop deck. It was like an Oasis! Rooms were beautifully appointed. The staff were incredibly kind as was the owner. Because the owner is French you could order wine and beer. The Riad is perfect for escaping and relaxing in!

Great Riad, friendly welcome and fab rooms.

Stayed in February 2024

There wasn't really a shower option that we wanted to use. It wasn't really an issue as baths can be nice too but we couldn't figure out a way to shower without soaking the entire bathroom.

The location was great. Very close to a gate (bab) which makes it easy to find and get back to. We had the largest room and it was beautiful. The garden and pool were beautiful and very comfortable to sit in. The staff and owner were helpful and friendly.

An absolutely stunning riad clearly lovingly restored. Easy access from one of the gates of the medina. Staff incredibly welcoming and helpful.

Rooms could be pre-heated prior to guests arrival, it was quite cold when we arrived, especially in the bathroom.

Nice location next to the gates to Medina, quiet area. Great breakfast.

We had an amazing time in Fes! The Riad is a real gem in the midst of the city with its stunning design. The host Monique was very welcoming and sweet. The manager Younes was exceptional throughout our stay in accommodating our needs. The whole staff made sure we had everything we needed. All the different excursions for sightseeing were also arranged on request. I would highly recommend this Riad and will definitely come back the next time we plan a trip to Fes. Bonus: The breakfast is also very wholesome.

Everything was superb.

Riad Norma is a GORGEOUS property with beautiful seating areas including a garden and pool for nice days and a warm and cozy fireplace for cools days. The courtyard is also beautiful. The rooms are well equipped with well maintained traditional furniture and decor. I felt as if I was royalty stepping back in time to live like a king and queen in our palace. The level of service and attention to detail by Younes and the entire staff feels like being pampered and attended to at all times. Yet, there was plenty of privacy whenever we wanted. Breakfast was delicious, with fresh fruits, fresh squeezed juices, fresh cheeses, and filling to last us the day. The Riad is close to the Ziat gate, making it very easy to get a red cab. Riad Norma will be my first choice the next time I am in Fez.

Just a wonderful stay in all respects! Monique and the entire staff truly made us feel at home. The riad itself is beautiful, we felt like royalty in such a grand room with the amazing courtyard. The breakfast in the morning, mint tea or a glass of wine in the evening… very inviting and relaxing. And all this within walking distance of the markets and other attractions. Thanks for hosting us!

Nothing!

The welcome from Younes and Monique was wonderful - we felt at home immediately in this beautifully restored riad. Our room was huge and the shower excellent. The breakfast was first class and slightly different every day. An added bonus was the lovely company staying at the same time as us.

A wonderful welcome, felt as if we were staying in a home - loved the fire come evenings. Everyone was so friendly and helpful.

Monique and her staff provide exceptional service in beautiful surroundings. The Riad Norma is well placed in a quiet area of the Medina but within walking distance of the souks and places to eat.
