Excellent place to stay in Fez. Assuming you want to stay in the medina, it is the perfect location and I doubt you would find better. The staff are friendly, very hospitable and helpful and Aziz organised us a good deal on a desert tour to Merzouga which was the best thing we did in Morocco. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Wifi worked in our room which was good. Breakfast was very good. Highly recommend this place.

Our stay at this hostel was wonderful. The staff were really helpful and welcoming. A traditional breakfast was served every morning. The hostel is clean, and facilities are very good. The atmosphere is so relaxed - we were served mint tea on the terrace. Aziz advised us on places to visit, and organised trips for us to the medina and to the desert - it was all very well organised,

Great location in the heart of the medina, be sure to take advantage of the cooking lesson and home cooked meal they offer. It was the best tajine we had in Morocco!

Did not stay in any other hostels in Morocco, but this one was good. Dirty sheets, so we used our own slip sleeping bags so that worked out fine. Decorations are funny, but quaint. Bathroom was clean, hot water and everything. Nice to have breakfast on the roof. The staff were very accommodating and quick to react to our sometimes strange requests. Location is not far from the Medina gate, and they picked us up there which was really great. Not very quiet, but nothing in the Medina is. :)

Dar El Yasmine is awesome place...you should be there! It's one of the places you can get easy in the Medina. The hostel looks like huge tradicional house. there i felt in real Fes. But the most important reason to get Dar El Yasmine is a staff:) they're so friendly and polite guys...everytime they laughing! I hope some day i'll have a chance to come back again....

Great Hostel lots of character and the staff was great they did everything they could to help us out I booked the hostel online they emailed me to call them when I arrived so they could meet me. I sent them back my plans it involved arriving at 2am they set up cabs to meet us at the train station and they still met us in the square close to 3am. Very impressed with service they even cooked dinner for us one night and helped us set up tours and trips for our vacation.

A good intimate hotel in the heart of the medina with very friendly service. Loved the local bread and butter for breakfast. Beds could be a bit softer though. Overall, a pleasant stay.

This was a really nice place. It's inside a beautiful building, it's very clean, and the rooms are very nice. The included breakfast is tasty too! One thing I will mention is that I often felt pressured by the staff to buy tours and trips arranged by them. You can say no of course; but it got a little tiring. The staff were really nice otherwise. With that warning I would still recommend a stay at Dar el Yasmine.

I'd definately recommend this to anyone. The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the rooftop and pots of mint tea. Ideally located behind the main street of the medina and is beautifully decorated and cosy! Near great shops, the cultural spots and tasty corner cafes. The tour guide provided by the hostel was informative, enthusiastic and good value for money. Thank you! Shukran.

We really enjoyed our staying in this hostel, we felt like at home. We had delicious breakfasts, tasty Moroccan dinners and plenty of mint tea at any time during the day. The best hostel we stayed in during our holidays in Morocco. Shukran Aziz, Mohammed and Isham!
