Honestly we could not give any recommendations for this place. We did actually stay because as you will read the place was terrible. Firstly the Riad people were not welcoming. If you get over that, then they point you to your room which we found smelly and dirty. The shower was down steep stairs that felt unsafe. Poke your face into the bathroom and it looked unhygienic. Find another place.

I had a lovely stay at Riad Tara.

I've mixed views on this one. I reached around 8pm and it took me 45 minutes to find this place. Fes is confusing and you will get lost so I'd have appreciated if the Riad had shared directions/ landmarks/ advice on how to reach them. I am surprised nobody else's review has this issue. I'm guessing they all took the train pickup service that the Riad offers. I didn't as it's much cheaper to take a taxi. The Riad is run by a very sweet lady who made sure I had breakfast every morning before heading out for the day. The location isn't the best (it is NOT in Fes el Bali) so anything needs a walk and any walk increases the chances of you getting lost. Believe me, you will get lost. The Riad in itself looks a bit rundown but it's still pretty. It has a gorgeous rooftop though and sunsets are very pretty.

We stayed in the Amber room for Three nights. Spacious, massive bathroom, hot shower (not that you really need it), functioning aircon and wifi. Plunge pool a godsend after walking around Medina in 44deg! Not difficult to find after the first time, reasonable walk to restaurants, although catering was available. Friendly staff. Genuine riad experience.

Wonderful guest house! The service was excellent. They ere attentive to everything we needed. We ate one dinner there as well and the food was better than the best rated restaurant in Fes (where we ate a subsequent night). The only negatve was parking. This guest house is located in the Medina so parking is not right at the building. It must be purchased from a local several blocks away for about $3 USD for 24 hours.

This is just an amazing Riad! I stayed here about 6 years ago and had such a wonderful time that I had to come back. Mr Jim and his lovely wife are such fantastic hosts and such great company. The location is perfect over looking the old city, the rooms have been updated and are now even more impressive! The food and service is top notch! We had a wonderful time and we can't wait to return!

The perfect Riad in Fes. Super nice owner with Fatia will do everything they can to help you visit the city or shop in the Medina.

I would start off by stating that the property itself is absolutely gorgeous. We had the terrace apartment and a great view. The owner is so friendly and both he and the staff, Fateha, are wonderful. Fateha arranged breakfast for us in the mornings, and got up very early on our departure date to make sure we were fed. They also arranged a porter for us and offerred to arranged taxi (we had already made arrangements for taxi). HOWEVER, it is very difficult to get to this Riad from the main road, especially with baggage and a stroller. the path is very uphill and cobblestone, narrow, and with many turns. from the main road when the taxi drops you off, it take about 10 minutes to get to the Riad. once you get to the main road, there are restaurants and shops and access to taxis and other means of transportation.

Love Riad Tara! The lady who runs the place is so lovely! She speaks French and I can understand a little so we managed to communicate as much as we needed! The meals she cooked for us were so incredibly delicious and some of the best we had on our travels. The Riad is lovely - safe, secure, clean, comfortable with a nice view and seating from the rooftop. It’s also just inside the Médina so easy to access by being dropped off (and the lady met our taxi). They also offer a shuttle to the airport with a driver who speaks perfect English, and a small spa with massage and a sauna! Highly recommend this stay! It feels like a labyrinth in the Médina and this is a nice refuge. The hotel is also named for Tara the owners 18 year old cat who is very sweet and reminded us of our own.

The place is inside of the medina, meaning no access by car, you have to walk with your belongings for 3 blocks+_, eventually you get your bearings and find the place, one recommendation for the manager is to offer an arrival pickup, wee see this in marrakech terminal, various peoples from different riads picking customers. The spa service was amazing and the food the same. Our room is in needs of a good update. In general the place is very good but isolated if you want to go around at night is a little scary because all the labyrinths of the medina with only very few people around. Definitely an unforgettable good experience that we wiil repeat in heartbeat.

Located in Medina with close distance to many attractions within old city.On the top of this, I would like to thank you a lot to a lady who is looking after this property on the daily basis. However she does not speak English ,she helped me a lot within my all stay at Tara.Each time I was coming back to the property she offered my a tea, helped me with the local travel agencies and guides.A huge thank you to her.

I had a lovely time staying at Riad Tara. The room and the bathroom were spacious, clean, confortable, warm and well decorated.I enjoyed the swimming pool, the spa and the terrific view of the city from the terrace. Jim,the owner and his assistant, Fatiha, were very welcoming and did their best to made my stay at the riad enjoyable. At first, I felt it would be difficult for me to find my way since the riad is located deep inside the medina. However, my fear vanished when Jim assured me he would send someone to get me from the town to the riad if that would be better for me. As a great host, he wanted to make sure I was completed happy visiting Fes. I really enjoyed my stay at Riad Tara. I would certainly stay there again and I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a wonderful time in Fes.

It is an old historical Riad which was nice, in the middle of Medina. It is easiest if you get someone to direct u to the house, if u are out and about, specially if late; don't waste time by following Google Map or a Map. You will waste time. This is the same for all Riads and part of experience of being in Medina.

Location was near the edge of the medina which was refreshing after spending the day in the winding narrow streets. Amazing view of the city from the terrace. Property was better than the pictures illustrate. Staff was friendly and accommodating and room was spacious and clean. Would come back!

great really fantastic. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Vert quiet and thé people vert freindly

Our stay at Riad Tara was wonderful! When we arrived, Fatiha helped us with our luggage, and walked with us to find the exact location of the Riad. It feels safe inside of the walls of Fes, as it has one gate, and then a little walkway to the main door. Inside is clean, well-kept, and beautiful. Fatiha made us amazing traditional breakfast (free), dinner (15 eur per person) and tea throughout our stay. She is kind and helpful. Our room was bigger than expected! With 2 rooms (stairs up to a second level with a single bed), and a large bathroom. The Riad also has a large 2 level terrace and a hammam, which I tried, which was also great!! Overall, lovely experience and would stay again!

Riad Tara is well-located, quiet yet convenient, near the markets and many notable landmarks. The space and structure are thoughtfully renovated, clean and lovely as is the staff, led by Fatiha, who is attentive and cheerful. She prepares a delicious and varied breakfast which we greatly enjoyed and highly recommend.

We were given a warm welcome by Fatiha the manager who turned out to be a "Jill" of all trades as she fixed a toilet problem, turned on heat for us as it was quite cold and cooked us the most fabulous meals we ever had in Morroco! We met the owner who was very friendly and helpful and we delighted in Tara the resident cat.Our room was super deluxe, large, with sitting room very tastefully decorated, Moroccan style. A perfect Moroccan experience!

The rooms are beautifully decorated. The staff was fantastic The location is very good and easy to access both by foot or taxi.
