Riad Ouliya - Fez

Riad Ouliya in Fès: A 350-year-old boutique riad inside the ancient walled medina

Authentic Moroccan Setting

Riad Ouliya is housed inside a 350-year-old building with original zellige tile walls and carved cedar wood doors and banisters. The property sits within the ancient walled medina of Fès, a Unesco World Heritage site, making it a short walk to the University of Al-Karaouine and Kairaouine Mosque. Guests are met at the main road and walked through the alleys to the riad by staff who also offer advice on navigating the medina's layout and avoiding common tourist traps.

Cooking Classes & Dining

Riad Ouliya Fès offers cooking classes led by expert chefs, teaching guests to prepare typical Fez specialties. The on-site restaurant serves traditional Moroccan cuisine in a dining room that also functions as a courtyard, with a second dining area on the rooftop terrace overlooking the old city. Breakfast with vegetarian and gluten-free options is included daily, and room service as well as special diet menus are available.

Berber-Inspired Suites

The riad has nine rooms, all different, with character-rich suites inspired by Berber culture and featuring private bathrooms and air conditioning. Each room is decorated with zellige tiles and carved wood finishings, and the suites offer balconies or terraces.
