Riad Salam Fes

The hotel is beautiful and overall it was a good experience. The food at the restaurants was very good. (The chicken pastille is fantastic.) It does have some notable deficiencies, however: 1. WiFi is terrible. Literally no wifi signal in our room and dead spots around the hotel. Only the main lobby had decent wifi. The tv in the room had many channels but only a few worked. 2. The spa is one small, dark massage room with two tables and through that the hammam. There is no separate shower area for use before or after your spa treatment unless the treatment itself is the hammam. The massage tables have no hole for the face to breathe through, so face-down treatment is very uncomfortable. There is very little privacy to change out of clothes other than a tiny bathroom in the treatment room. After your spa treatment, unless you change back into your clothes at the spa, you have to walk thru the lobby in a bathrobe to get to your room. My wife did the hammam (wash and scrub) and said that was a good experience. I had a regular massage, which was amateurish and not worth it in my opinion.

Ancient large riad situated in the old town. Very beautiful decoration and special ambiance. Rooms have good facilities but especially in the restaurant heating system is not sufficient to afford the winter temperatures. Large and panoramic terrasse on the last floor gives you the opportunity to enjoy sunset. Staff is ensuring a good service but sometime a bit slow.
