Hotel &riad dalila — Hotel in Fez

I booked this hotel after reading positive reviews here and am pleased it was as expected. The hotel is located on the northern edge of medina, the old city. A taxi ride from the railway station takes no more than 10 minutes and costs 20 dirham. The staff is friendly and the reception is decorated in traditional Moroccan style. The owner, Mohammed, is always sitting there, playing on his laptop. ||Good size and very clean, my room on the first floor (inner side) was a bit cold in March but extra blanket was available. The attached bath room is very basic with a DIY type shower but clean. Two towels were provided but I had to ask for the toilet roll. ||||The location is excellent if you want to explore the old city. The Tejani mosque and Al Karouine madrasa are few minutes away through narrow alleys and worth a visit. I explored all parts of the city on foot without any problem. Don't believe people who warn you against getting lost. It's unlikely. The Burj Nord, the high point, not far from the hotel can be reached by foot if you are fit and provides a lovely panoramic view of the city.||||The only negative point about the hotel was the supplementary breakfast as only the coffee or mint tea is served with it. A box of Lipton Tea should not be a big expense if the hotel wants to cater some British travellers. The wifi is only available in the reception.||||All in all, this place is a very good value for money to stay for a couple of days. I thoroughly enjoyed my first...

We re three people stay in Hotel Dalila for 4 days, the good things i want to say about the hotel is the excellent location in the old town area, there was a very friendly and nice receptionist who always smile to us. The first day we checked in, the cleaning staff forgot to put toilet paper in the bathroom, and i asked for one in the reception. And like most of the Moroccan hospitality culture, the receptionist gave us mint tea as a welcome gift. And there was an old man always setting outside, bringing tourists to the places they want. This is one of the free hotel service, i find it good and helpful. But someone told us that they will collect money later on whenever we made an purchase, I don't know is this true or not, since i never witness once, but i think it is reasonable for people to do this because they re doing tourist business.||||However, we find the bathroom bad, water keep leaking from the shower once you turn on it. There is no curtain around, so no longer in the second day, the floor in the bathroom was really flooded with water. Also, the cover of the seated stool can't stand still, so every time you seat on it, the cover fall down and touch your back.||||Never the less, i find my stay in this hotel comfortable ignoring the bathroom, and i love to go to the roof top, there are table and chair you can use, and every few people go there because of the hot weather in summer and no wifi connection i guess, so it become my little paradise...

We ha a hotel booked next door and realised I had made the booking for the wrong date. So asked here at hotel daliia and was the best decision ever! ||The old man and the young man that runs the hotel are so very friendly. ||The old man took us to the tannery (hard to find on your own) and he never asked or expected a tip but I gave him a small one anyways because he was so lovely. The night we arrived he walked us to a restaurant. This restaurant (which looked like a page outta my quirky grandmas house) had a set menu for 80 dirham and I must admit the lamb tagine there has been the best meal yet. And we have travelled morocco for 2 weeks now. Any travel info was given. Bedrooms lack light but reasonably pretty good for the cheap price.||The hotel is pretty much on the outskirts of the medina which is good as you don't have to get lost just to arrive at the hotel. Few windy streets and your in the awesome medina of fes. Few street signs above to look out for and you can find your way around pretty easily! ||Breakfast is pretty good, bread, muffin , yogurt tea or coffee for 25 dirham. The staff are pretty easy to please. Which is so nice when your far away from home :) ||Just count your washing if you get your laundry there as the lady might forget a item by...
