When we arrived the front desk staff were neither welcoming nor informative. The bed mattresses were very hard and each person got only one pillow. In the bathroom, the water was only luke warm, there was no shampoo, conditioner or lotion (only one kind of soap in a pump dispenser). My husband got an electric shock when his head happened to touch the light cover to the left of the sink. Breakfast buffet was quite sufficient.

Absolutely gorgeous property in a great area! Getting there can be tricky, but try to have your taxi driver drop you off near Pizzeria Mandala and you won’t have to hike up the stairs with your luggage. Don’t forget to try the fresh squeezed orange juice right across from the hotel!

Lovely Chefchaouen Gem

I recently stayed at Hotel Dar Mounir and it was a delightful experience! From the moment I checked in, the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The room was spotless and beautifully maintained, with a comfortable bed and a great rooftop view. The cleanliness of the entire hotel was impressive. It's rare to find a place that pays such attention to detail. The atmosphere was relaxing, making it a perfect getaway spot. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a stress-free and enjoyable stay!

B'fast needs an re-think everything else was great

Funky, fun riad just off the main square. Two issues, if you are tall watch your head everywhere. Also, the breakfast needs a serious upgrade. It's as if they are watching every slice of bread.

Be warned- this place is not what the reviews on Expedia make it out to be. Location was excellent- near the main square, but tucked away. Otherwise, overpriced.
Our room smelled constantly (mostly coming from bathroom)- I looked at one other room option and that one had a similar smell.
Housekeeping was \"offered\" daily but not actually provided- for us, they said they didn’t have a duplicate of our key so couldn’t clean it. They told us this at noon and didn’t offer a later cleaning. Its not our fault we have the only key to the room!
Breakfast was good but pretty standard for the area. Fresh squeezed OJ a plus.
I’ve been to Chefchaouen before. I stayed at a cheaper hostel and enjoyed their room and breakfast much more.
No trashcan in the room. No water, no tea. Mattresses uncomfortable and very firm.
Safe reportedly available at front desk but not in individual rooms. Note that at the front desk, the main door is always wide open and the staff steps away from time to time, so it isn’t always watched. The area is pretty safe, but still made me uneasy.

The staff were very helpful, the guy helped me take the luggage upstairs through stairways. The young lady the next day let me use her own umbrella because it's raining so hard outside.... The young guy who served the breakfast also helped carry my two suitcases to the garage after the man from the garage failed to come to pick it up as promised.... It was a good location and convenient to walk around and explore the beautiful blue alleys...

The hotel is easy to find and is in a great location for walking to all of the attractions. The Medina is small and easy to navigate and very safe. The best part of all was the friendly and helpful front desk girl who helped us in booking bus and train tickets in advance and printing them off for us, as well as restaurant suggestions and directions. The breakfast was good as well. I wouldn’t miss visiting this Blue City. A very unique place in the world and this hotel was perfect for our stay.

I have never seen a check-in like this. Throughout our entire travels through Morocco we were always welcomed warmly at every Riad or Hotel. This was the complete opposite where I felt I was a burden to the reception staff. They didn't explain anything about the hotel, they didn't offer any assistance, and they frankly didn't seem to care that we had arrived. Also, the breakfast is at a restaurant around the corner and not in this hotel, so don't expect to be warm or have wifi at breakfast.

Like a fairy tale

I work for Disney and when i saw the door of my room i was hoping to see Aladdin and Jasmine inside! The hotel inside is so cute the decor and the shapes it takes you to all those Arabian stories that we see in TV. I really love it. The staff was super nice and helpful. They spoke Spanish , French, English and Arabic obviously so they definitely will have someone able to help in ur language. The area is perfect cuz they are located at the top of the plaza so is lots of places to eat around. The terrace was really nice (they were expanding it but u can go and sit there). Overall everything was great :)

beautiful blue riad in the Blue City

beautiful blue riad along a gorgeous blue alley in Chefchaouen. A little difficult to find and I still can't explain to you- we had to ask for directions. Easy checkin with the hostess. Took stairs to get to our room on the 3rd floor. large room for 3 ppl with a sitting area and tv. Bathroom was clean but we had some leaking and the floor was wet during our stay. Shower was nice but cold (bc it was 30 degrees when we were visiting)- the room itself has a heater though (just not in the bathroom). Breakfast was great bc it was served in the riad's associated restaurant Dar Mounir. The included breakfast is fried egg, coffee/tea/OJ, pastries, but if you pay the difference you can get an omelet instead. Very cute restaurant right in the square and next to the kasbah.

Hotel Dar Mounir

this Hotel was in great location. the staff were great, very friendly and eager to help. our overall stay at the hotel was ok except that we didn't have AC in the room. the unit was broken and only blowing hot air in the middle of a 100 degree weather. The staff members tried fixing it by themselves and they couldn't, they called a repair person who after getting a new part from another city and installing it the unit still didn't cool the room.
I think, for a hotel that its main objective is its clients comfort they should verify these things and make sure all in order before the client checks in. I spent my two day stay there worrying about the AC instead of enjoying my vacation.

Unique experience!

Hotel Dar Mounir is definitely a unique property - it's a bit like staying in a big castle, except the rooms are much more stylish and comfortable than you might expect from your first impression when you drive up.

It's a bit deceiving, because there's only a small wooden sign on a stake and you have to drive down a steep, unfinished gravel driveway that crosses a small ravine, so I wasn't even sure I was at the right place.

But the hosts were very friendly and attentive.

It's a bit of a drive back to the nearest village, so I had dinner at the hotel, very nicely prepared and they even have beer and wine available. Breakfast was generous and freshly prepared.

A very nice experience overall.
