10 Top-Rated Lodges in Chefchaouen, Tanger-Tetouan-Al Hoceima

May 13, 2023 Sachiko Swiger

This stunning Moroccan city in the Rif Mountains was originally built as a fortress in the 15th century. The mountains towering over Chefchaouen resemble a pair of goat’s horns, and, perhaps not coincidentally, the creamy native goat cheese is one of the most popular regional treats. Architecture enthusiasts will marvel at the Jewish-inspired blue-tinted buildings, octagonal mosque and Spanish ruins.

Ermitage d'Akchour

L’Ermitage d’Akchour, écolodge sur 2 ha intégré dans une nature luxuriante, un lieu idyllique pour vivre une expérience unique de dépaysement et de sérénité. A quelques lieux de Chefchaouen, au sein du parc National de Talassemtane, le domaine se situe au bord de l’eau et des cascades, en osmose avec la nature. Lieu de repos et de ressourcement, préservant l’intimité, privilégiant le calme, ou le véritable luxe résulte de l’enchantement que procure en permanence le simple fait de respirer un air pur. L’architecture se fond dans la montagne, grâce à une architecture alliant pierres et bois, ce qui apporte caractère et charme, dans l’esprit d’un village, conciliant douceur et confort

Location, good service and Big breakfast

Reviewed By Robert C

The place has a great location , maybe 2 minutes to the Kasbah. I had a garden facing room and heard no noise at night. Nice staff and helped with directions, money exchange, baggage, etc. Breakfast was huge but a lot of bakery item. Over hung the table with plates. Fried egg was good but the butter, jelly, olive oil, Goat cheese, olives, etc were to die for. Excellent.

Auberge Casa Linda

The farmhouse look to be in Italy

Reviewed By Nicolò L

Check-in 07/03 check-out 09/03 Hotel: 30 minutes walk from the CTM bus station, do not recommend to reach the structure on foot because it is really heavy and the walk with luggage is not recommended. Outside the bus station you will find the taxis that will take you wherever you want. The hotel is a typical farmhouse located in the mountains (not in the "center ville" and outside the Medina). The host only speaks Spanish, not English. If you want to stop for dinner, make it present a lot of hours before. In the evening the hotel street is not lit and you will find yourself walking in the dark deeper, hoping for the full moon! As a recommendation on where to dine the host provided us with a fast-food brochure (?????) Panoramic terrace and very beautiful outdoor areas surrounded by greenery. Outside pool. Almost complete absence of staff. They do not accept payment cards. Cash only. Room: I stayed in the first floor room (room 101) with a non-panoramic balcony, low connection WI-FI signal. Very cold room, they supplied two electric heaters. The first night the hot water wasn’t working, the next day we had no more problems (the hotel has the electric boiler for the water). Big room with a double bed and a single bed, clean with a small bathroom but with all the essentials, except phone, shampoo and bath soap. Very uncomfortable sink. I left at 6 o'clock in the morning and they did find the breakfast ready and booked a taxi to the CTM bus station. Breakfast: Normal breakfast, Moroccan bread, strawberry jam, butter, olives, goat cheese, juice coffee or tea. Taxi: from the hotel to the city center cost you 20 Dirham (10 minutes).

Magical stay at Dar Aldea in the Blue City

Reviewed By tammyo802

My Family & I stayed at Dar Aldea in Chefchaouen, Morocco for 4 nights recently. The city is so beautiful, so many unique shops & restaurants, live music everyday in the main square & so many kind & friendly people. The landscape, mountains, hiking, historic landmarks & view down to the city (especially at sunset) is breathtaking! Staying at Dar Aldea was like staying with family. The host caretakers, Amina & her family live in the house & are there for you whatever you need. They also give you privacy, if that is what you want. Amina made us a homemade fabulous breakfast everyday, she even washed our clothes for us & hung to dry while we were out. Their children are sweet & her husband gave us info on where to go & see. He hiked with us up the mountain to see the sunset too. This is a great place to stay with your family. The bedrooms look like fairy tale rooms, so decorative & very cozy, with comfortable beds. The whole house is visually stunning, very clean, colorful, magical with Moroccan style of fantastic tile work & beautiful intricate painting designs. The roof top patio is like a dream. Comfortable, beautiful sofas & tables. Lots of places to lay down or sit in the sun or shade area too & look at the amazing view down on to the city. You can even hear the live music down in the plaza square from up on the patio rooftop. There is a washing machine up there & lines to hang to dry in the warm sun. Everything is within walking distance from Dar Aldea & the people of Chefchaoun are so helpful & friendly. Many people speak Spanish & English, as well as Darija, Arabic, French, Berber & more. The food, local sweets, breads & amazing fresh fruit juices are wonderful! The beautiful blue stairs going up to Dar Aldea are famous & the most 'Instagramed' in the world. It's fun seeing people all day waiting to take their photos on these stairs. The only thing I would say that would be difficult for some people is there are alot of stairs going up to this house.. but I got more in shape on this trip from all the walking, so it got easier everyday. I really recommend Dar Aldea & Chefchaouen! It was my dream to visit there & it was even more than I dreamed!

Buon posto per soggiorno breve

Reviewed By Verotep

Il posto è a pochi passi dal centro del centro città, quindi molto comodo. Ambienti semplici e spartani. Un po' freddo, consiglio sacco a pelo per le notti fredde d'inverno. Wifi ok, personale disponibile. Noi abbiamo richiesto la colazione in anticipo rispetto all'orario normale, e ci hanno preparato un piccolo buffet ma molto soddisfacente.

My wife and i decided to celebrate my birthday in a special lodge.. We choosed houmar because i heard some good feedback about it but i had never been there. It was the best choice. The house is clean, authentic and you really you feel that you are in a real rural house ad nd not a fake one. Mohamed knows a lot about the region and its potentials. He is a lover of the environnement and the natural heritage. For sure we will go again to this amazing place.

Great!!

Reviewed By Miguel F

A very quiet and cozy Maison, with a dedicated service, where we got all we needed for the last part of our trip. Its owner, Mr. Kamal, was the perfect host, worried, since we arrived, about bringing us the best of comforts. He is, also, a wonderful tea-maker, and he knows Chefchaouen very well, so you may trust his informations about the blue city (but also about the rest of Morocco). We liked it a lot.

Une bonne surprise au milieu des montagnes du rif marocain

Reviewed By mylene0618

Une pension familiale bien tenue par une famille coréenne. On est dans une ambiance inattendue = colorée, propre et respectieuse du silence. On a passé une seule nuit mais je recommande vraiment! Le petit-déjeuner coréen était un délice. La terrasse au-dessus de la maison permet une vue panoramique sur la montagne. PS attention on est pas dans Akchour mais à 7 km des excursions pour visiter les cascades prévoir 1 voiture ou 1 transfert taxi.
