Karawan Riad

During the seventeenth century there was no place more romantic than Maqfia in the Andalous Quarter of Fez Medina. In those days it was a complex of palatial riads separated by gardens filled with flowers and fruit trees and cooled by tinkling fountains to create an environment worthy of queens. Karawan Riad was the grandest in town.

Spending over a decade restoring the Riad, much detail has gone into sourcing exactly the same materials made by local craftsmen - hand-crafted zellije (glazed mosaic tiles), delicate wrought iron-work, intricate plaster and filigreed lanterns, silk embroidery and richly painted wood - and added curios and artifacts inspired by the ‘caravanserai’ that moved exquisite handicrafts, fabulous food and romantic stories all over Morocco and the Middle East.

While at the Riad, you can relax at the beautiful hamman or take in a meal at the delicious restaurant. When all of that is done, make your way to your suite, where no comfort has been forgotten. Each of the 7 suites submerge you in the beauty of the old days. Each suite is decorated with a different style, giving you a one of a kind of experience while at the riad.
