The blue city's most polished stay — Andalusian courtyard, indoor pool, and mountain views from the roof.

Chefchaouen's accommodation runs mostly to simple guesthouses, which makes Lina Ryad the exception: a proper small hotel in the heart of the blue medina, with an Andalusian courtyard, an indoor pool and a spa — comforts almost unheard of this deep in the Rif.

The rooftop looks across the famous blue rooftops to the mountains, and the town's photogenic lanes start immediately outside. Chefchaouen rewards an overnight stay precisely because the day-trippers leave by evening; this is the most comfortable place to be when they do.
