The Moroccan-style renovated family hotel is very distinctive and the pattern on the architectural structure is exquisitely carved. The central courtyard used for gatherings and dining, where the roof top above can be opened to reduce the heat or can be closed to keep warm. Rooms are arranged around the courtyard which reminds me of Hui-style architectures. I also see the shadow of Chinese architecture in some Moroccan architecture but the difference is that in addition to wood, they use stone and mosaic as building materials to form a colourful visual effect as well.

Everything was just amazing, the location, the riad itself and the staff!
Riad chosen by our travel agent. Handily placed close to a Medina gate means there is just a 100m walk to the Riad. The staff are adorable and only want to please. The grey parrot was very entertaining singing It’s a long way to Tipperary. He doesn’t like men so guys watch your fingers! Good firm beds, bottled water in room, spacious bathroom, great courtyard for meals and relaxing and a roof terrace that is comfortable. The highlight here though is the food. Order dinner at breakfast and you will have a wonderful evening meal. There is a seriously good cook working here.

After travelling around Morocco for 2 weeks this was our favorite Riad by far. It is located just a 1 minute walk from Bab Ziat which is easily accessible by taxi as a drop off point so no worries about bringing luggage to the riad. The staff was so welcoming and accommodating. The breakfast/dinner menu changes daily. It was always excellent and generous. Overall a great experience and would recommend to any travellers.

The Riad itself is truly lovely & the public areas & rooms are just as pictured & very impressive in decoration. The owner obviously has a good eye for details which is evident throughout the property which is a visual masterpiece overall. Good housekeeping is found in the lobby/courtyard & rooms but was shockingly ignored on the rooftop terrace which was not just rundown but filthy. Old, rundown, rust-covered, dirty seating cushions laying on the floor. Furniture that had not been cleaned in months perhaps & trash laying on the floor. When we expressed our shock to the manager-on-duty who was unfailingly polite & courteous & eager to help, he claimed there had been rain 2 days prior which was the reason for the unsightly terrace condition, but what we experienced was weeks-to-months of inattention to housekeeping & detail. The furniture cushions did not become as dirty as we saw in only 2 days & the furniture condition spoke volumes about a lengthy lack of attention, as did the poor terrace housekeeping. Was also totally unimpressed by the quality of the bed linens but want to specifically compliment the owner on high-quality plumbing fixtures, which WORK without experiencing any unpleasant problems. Also one of the best breakfast offerings we experienced in 9 days in Morocco, with top quality service to match. Be forewarned that if you plan to eat dinner at Al Bartal you MUST make a reservation in advance. Even though there were only 4 occupied rooms during our stay & we asked at 4:00PM to make a dinner reservation for 7:30 that evening, we were told it was not possible. Yet we only saw 2 tables of 2 persons each actually eating during the evening. Strange. We strolled 5 minutes around the corner to the spectacularly beautiful Palais Faraj for dinner, which is a MUST visit when in Fes. Overall, we enjoyed Riad Al Batal which is definitely a lovely, beautifully decorated choice in Fes, but "details" make a huge difference. Convenient location only 1/2 bock from 1 of the old Medina's entrance gates.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Riad Al Bartal for 2 nights and it was amazing! The riad itself and the rooms are stunning, the service is 5-star, and the food is the best we had our entire time in Morocco (seriously, book the dinner, you won't be disappointed!). The location is also great, it's only about a 10 minute walk to the Blue Gate and it's close enough to the edge of the medina walls making it super easy to navigate to with a taxi. I can't wait to come back and stay here again!!!

Absolutely beautiul courtyard in the riad and the rooms were just gorgeous. Service was excellent. Delicious breakfast and they packed us ours to go for one morning we had to leave early. Highly recommend!

Every detail of the Riad is designed to offer an unforgettable experience, service, food, the care of the staff, the rooms superbly decorated, clean and welcoming. After several stays over the years would not stay anywhere else in Fes.
