Dar MD

Past the cobalt-washed gateway into Chefchaouen's medina quarter, Dar MD occupies a traditional riad on Rue Raouachid — the blue-painted lanes of the old town immediately outside, with the central Plaza Uta el-Hammam a five-minute walk north. A practical, affordable base for travellers exploring the Rif Mountain town on foot.

The three-star property serves a well-regarded breakfast and keeps a rooftop terrace with views over the stacked blue-and-white rooflines. Family rooms are available, and free Wi-Fi runs throughout. Check-in opens at 14:00; checkout is noon.

Chefchaouen's medina is compact enough that the souks, the kasbah, and the cascade trail above town all stay within reasonable walking distance of Rue Raouachid.
