Riad Maison Bleue occupies a 19th Century house previously belonging to Moulay Bel Arbi El Alaoui, eminent judge and professor of theology.
The famous Moroccan philosopher, Aziz Lahbabi was also born and raised in this house.
Today, Riad Maison Bleue, the second guest house restored and run by the El Abbadi family, consists of three interconnecting courtyards where guests feel as though they are negotiating the laneways of the ancient Medina of Fès.
