Chefchaouen Hotels - Reviews and Rates

It was a chill out day for me today - the rest of the group headed out at 7.30am for a 7hr walk through the countryside - I lounged in bed until just after 9 and had a long hot shower.

Set in the mountains and looking a lot like those picture-perfect postacard shots of winding alleys and white- and blue-washed walls of Greek island villages, Chefchaouen is magical.
