Dar Echchaouen Maison d'Hotes & Riad

小鎮上的酒店，環境太漂亮了，裝飾非常有當地的特色，唯一的問題是無線網絡的點不太好，基本上等於沒有網絡。

Absolutely stunning riyad with gardens and bungalow rooms with a living and quaint decor. Breath taking views across the old city glistening in white and blue. Climb up to the rooms are a bit steep and not for ppl who have difficulty climbing. Some of the bungalows have a private terrace or balcony as well . Dinner and breakfast at the Ground floor restaurant and 1st floor areas were good. Only issue I had was the pressure of water  in the shower. Else it was the most beautiful place in Chefchouen. Staff are not too friendly nor accommodating in comparison to the other Riyads where we stayed.

This hotel has a lot of potential but fell flat in our experience. First impressions are everything and with hotels that impression is typically based upon how you are initially greeted. We had traveled from a riad in Fes where we were greeted warmly, offered tea, and felt immediately comfortable. Not so here. When we approached the clerk at the desk he barely looked up at us and I had to ask him if we could check in. He never once cracked a smile or made us feel welcome. The hotel is well-located on the hill with a nice view of the charming town that is only a short stroll away. The pool and outdoor areas are lush and inviting. The rooms, however, are dark and tired. Many have lovely views and could be nice if they were renovated. However, as they are, we did not want to spend any time in them other than to sleep. With respect to dining, the fireplace in the restaurant had created so much smoke in the air that we declined to eat dinner there. The staff kindly accommodated us by moving us to the upstairs dining area that is normally used for breakfast The dinner menu and quality was OK but nothing special. Breakfast was good. With some upgrades to the rooms this hotel could be very nice. But as it is currently, I can't rate it higher than a 3 (out of 5).

We stayed for one night in a room outside the main building. Our room was large with a separate seating area and was very tastefully decorated. Good lighting and thoughtful design. The problem was the cold bathroom, though the bathroom itself was beautiful. All amenities in the room and extra blankets too. Buffet breakfast was a let down as it was quite a small space and limited choice. It was enough for us but not great. Service was slow as the place was crowded. Overall a nice place.
