The host is a wonderful cook and made us feel very welcome . Delicious meals. Location is perfect. The tea is the best we’ve had in Morocco (grateful he taught us how to make it). A beautiful haven to retreat to after a day sightseeing. Definitely recommend.
The only thing would be to have a fan in the bedrooms. Got a little warm in summer. Other than that, a wonderful stay.

This was a fantastic place to stay, Omar our host was incredibly welcoming and incredibly kind and made our stay and visit to Fes an experience to remember. Breakfast was served every morning on the rooftop terrace which was delicious and mint tea served in the evenings.
Omar was very informative and helpful in assisting us with day tours. He was a pleasure to spend time with discussing the local culture and swapping tales.
The location of the Riad was ideal being in the middle of the height of the street activity and close to cafes and access to all the incredible places to visit such as the tanneries.
The family room was great, clean and the beds comfortable.
My stay was beyond my expectations and I would not change a thing.

An unforgettable stay at this charming riad! From the warm welcome to the beautifully appointed room, every detail exceeded expectations. The attentive staff made us feel at home, and the central location allowed easy exploration of the city. Each morning, we savored the delicious breakfast with delightful local flavors. It was the perfect oasis after exciting days of sightseeing. The memories we made here will stay with us forever. Thank you to the wonderful team for creating such a remarkable experience. We can't wait to return for more magical moments at this exceptional riad! Si Omar you're amazing

What truly set this accommodation apart was the remarkable hospitality provided by Omar. His genuine and friendly demeanor made us feel like I was staying at home than at a hotel. He was kind, friendly and always having very thoughtful gesture with their guests. The views form his terrace of the medina where outstanding not to mention the fantastic location on the main street of the city. There is no doubt we would repeat.
The room ventilation could be better specially for the hot summer nights.

I rarely post reviews, but I had to on this one occasion. You will NOT find a nicer, friendlier and more helpful host than Omar...Anywhere! And a great place to stay in the heart of The Medina. Superb roof terrace. Great breakfasts. Lovely, old-worldly rooms. Oh...and don't forget to bring lettuce for the tortoises. Thanks a Million, Omar!!

Excellent location in the Medina and like its name, it is beautifully decorated with historical artifacts. The views from the rooftop are fantastic. The host was very friendly and helpful when some of us got sick. Decent breakfast. We had a family room which was really large.
Our room was on the first floor and the sewer smell from the bathroom was really strong, even in the bedroom, which made it difficult to enjoy. We encountered this at other places in Morocco but it affected our stay here. It may have been worse because our room was on the first floor.

It was literally like staying at the museum! Such a beautiful place with so many pretty details and the rooftop is offering the best views of the Medina. Make sure to wake up early to catch a sunrise up there.
And the staff with the owners were amazing, they went above and beyond to help us out when we needed to go to the hospital with our daughter! So big thanks to them!!!
Location was prime as well, right in the heart of Medina!
Would definitely stay there again.
Shower was over flooding

Good location. The host seemed nice one we told him we were leaving
We had the room right next to the kitchen. Since the windows from the room to the inside of the Riad were open air, we heard every single sound, not just from the kitchen, but from the entire Riad, as the the building structure acts an echo chamber. The bathroom smelled horribly and was pretty dirty. The smell made it's was into the bedroom. The host seemed unwilling to do anything about any of this until we told him we were finding another place. Then he started being nice and tried to offer us another room (right next to the existing room, but for more money). Was hard to tell if his change in tone was because he was afraid of getting a bad review, or maybe it was late in the day and he was still fasting for Ramadan. Anyways, we found another much nicer place and couldn't figure out how this place had such good reviews. It wasn't particularly nice. The bathroom was disgusting.

Omar is a fantastic host, always ready to please and to help! Yes, the house is a very old one, so of course, you will experience a real Fassi way of life, and maybe miss some modern comfort. But rooms are charming, very clean, bathroom with everything and hot water, and nice decoration.
All is genuine here!
It was an honour to share a Ftour, during Ramadan, in this incredible house.
Breakfast on terrace is amazing!
Thanks a lot, Omar, we would love to come back and listen to your stories!
Be careful of stairs, there are quite a few :)
Some mats can be a bit hard, because they are pure moroccan hand made.

I've been in many countries and different hostels/hotels and it has been one of the best experience so far. Omar was so kind, very worried about every detail. The breakfast was delicious, very typical from Morroco. We enjoyed drinking the mint tea every morning and night. I really recommend to have dinner there.

Beautiful house in the middle of the Medina. Very hospitable owner. It is also a nice place for children to stay, there is a lot of care and attention for them. Nearby you can park the car at "Parking Ain Azlitenen" there are men with luggage carts who bring you to the house for 20-30 dirhams, ideal!

Dar Melyani is an excellent place to stay. The location is wonderful, inside the Medina, and the rooms are clean and comfortable, with great water pressure in the shower! But best of all is Omar, the owner of the dar. His hospitality is unparalleled, and he was very helpful in organizing tours and directing us to places off the beaten track. Would absolutely recommend!

This Riad is absolutely beautiful with the frienliest host (Omar) and his wife. The go the extra mile to explain the city and sights, make tea and make sure their guests are happy. Breakfast on the terrace was warm and varied every morning. The beautiful white bedding made it a place you wanted to return to at night.

Very welcoming and friendly staff. Good breakfast every day with a lovely view of the medina from the terrace. Omar and his wife are very kind hosts who made sure we had all we needed for a comfy stay. Good supply of hot water to accommodate excessively long showers during winter. Well situated in the old medina of Fes.
