Le Jardin des Biehn

A truly beautiful Riad, decorated by a famous French interior designer who was also the owner of the place (Mitchel Biehn). We had a problem with the credit card I made the booking with, but they told me not to worry and pay at reception on arrival, which was great as in other places you may lose your reservation. The riad is located about 5-6 minutes away from the Blue Gate, inside the Fez Medina. Very easy to get there through narrow and safe streets. It is also located 2 minutes away from the main shopping street, so it was easy to get around the Medina and come back to the Riad. We got the La danseuse Berbere room, which was well decorated and practical. Very clean and comfortable. We never heard a noise from nearby rooms, and the streets become quiet after 8pm. What stands out are the internal gardens and patio. A quiet eden that is only found once you step through the main door of the riad. There is a small but well kept pool, and a cafe/restaurant where we had dinner 2 out of 3 nights due to the good quality of the food (a bit on the expensive side though). The people working at the Riad are great, always helpful in a natural manner. We were greeted every morning at breakfast by Moshuk (photo), who was lovely and made our stay great. But pretty much everyone at the Riad was warm and helpful. On the last day, we were told that since our room had not been booked that night, we could check out any time we wanted. Since our flight out was scheduled late that afternoon we really appreciated the offer. I travel quite often for work and it is rare that you are given such an opportunity by hotels! We stayed 3 nights, loved Fez and the Jardin Des Biehn and their people. It was hard to leave that paradise. My partner and I would like to thank everyone at Jardin for going above and beyond their means to make our stay great
