Dar El Menia

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As far as I can tell this topic is just a commercial hotel, and does not meet the guidelines for notability (WP:NOTE). The only two references provided don't support a claim of its historical notability (e.g. claim of dating from the 14th century) or of architectural notability (since there are many, many similar riad hotels in Fes and across Morocco). One source link is now defunct and the other source is a commercial listing (Expedia). I've been unable to find any references that mention it other than commercial listings. It is not mentioned in any scholarly sources I'm aware of (I did a Google Scholar search and consulted a variety of references I already have access to). It is not even mentioned in one of the main books about houses in Fez that date from this period (Revault et al, 1985, "Palais et demeures de Fes. I. Époques mérinde et saadienne (XIVe-XVIIe siècles"). Robert Prazeres (talk) 04:22, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
