Breakfast was adequate but could be better (for example savoury options like eggs)

The location of Dar Gabriel is excellent, it was very easy to find on a beautiful road. The dar was very clean and we loved the decor. The terrace is also very nice. The hosts were lovely especially Hind who was very kind and thoughtful. She offered us advice on where to eat and was so friendly throughout our stay.

beds were very hard, that’s the only thing we didn’t enjoy during our stay

the location and the great service we had while we were staying at the hotel

Location and room were great

The main problem that we encountered was the poor wi-fi signal that did not allow us to do streaming or video calls with quality.

Dar Gabriel is well-located, the staff was very kind and the breakfast was satisfactory with fresh juice. Our room was located on the first floor and it was spacious. The bathroom as well was good.

Nothing, everything was great!

Extremely nice place with very friendly and welcoming staff, the bedrooms are comfortable, clean and very nicely decorated. We felt very good and comfortable, the interior is very well taken care of and has a special flare, also the view from the terrace is very nice. The location is just perfect! We would definitely come back ! :)

Please have a bidet in the toilet for hygiene purpose. We had to wait for a long time for the hot water to be available.

It would be better if can have more varieties. It's quite plain and simple. Appreciate if there's choice of at least scrambled eggs or poached egg. But overall its ok. The rooms and towels are clean. It's well kept.

No one spoke English until a woman came in the last morning. The reviews said they served meals and they did not. The breakfast was very basic. The help tried but couldn’t do much with what they had. The glass roof was cracked and leaked water inside when it rained. The second twin bed was a board.

Location and in Medina

I would have to work to come up with something I didn't like, and there's no reason to do that.

Dar Gabriel provides comfortable accommodations--the room and especially the bathroom are relatively spacious by Moroccan "Dar" standards, with places to hang your clothes. It's located on a lane attractive enough that you'll have to make your way past other tourists and visitors usiing it for their photo backdrop. But I think easily overlooked is one of its best features: it's near the edge of the medina, a short walk from a plaza where a taxi can let you off or where you can get a taxi when you leave. (There's also a farmer's market in the plaza 2 days a week.) Don't understimate the value of not having to tote your suitcases deep into the medina.

We are a family of 4 adults that stayed for a couple of nights in Dar Gabriel. 1. The room assigned was extremely small for 4 adults - just one small room and a tiny bathroom. The room is small for 2 people in itself - I fail to understand how it was set up as a quadruple room for 4 adults. One double bed, 2 single beds and a small table occupied almost all the space in the room, leaving a walkway to a tiny bathroom. With 5 bags of our own, we had a difficult time in the room. When we requested for a different room the lady manager said that this was the only quadruple room in the hotel. 2. Apart from the room everything else seemed very cramped and difficult to negotiate in the Dar -very tight spaces fit for one person to move at a time. 3. The cold and often rude behaviour of the staff, especially the lady who seemed to be the owner/manager of the Dar. On entering the room we realized that the room lock was not working - we had already planned a vist to a few places in Chefchaouen, so we had to leave our stuff in the room unlocked, with only an assurance that it will be safe. No apologies. 4. A small rationed bottle of soap was provided for our family and we were instructed by the lady manager to use that for handwash as well as bodywash. Which meant that we had to carry the bottle between the shower and the vanity. When we asked for at least an empty bottle to split the contents, it was not provided. 5. The breakfast was decent but arrived late. We were at the breakfast area at the scheduled time but had to wait for 30 mins. for the food to arrive on the first day. The 2nd day was better. The whole property is understaffed, managed by just 3 or 4 people, including the manager.

The AC was a savior - it did what it's supposed to do.

The bed in our room was soo uncomfortable. Breakfast was missing so many things, a cold croissant with so much bread, no eggs and a terrible orange juice.

The staff members were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The location was central & close to everything we needed to see and discover, it was close to restaurants and coffee shops as well. We loved the terrace, it has a nice view.

Stayed in April 2024

The staff was nice as a person but almost never available. We waited 30 min for checkin, waited 20 min for breakfast although we requested it at certain time due to later schedule, and at night there was no one in the hotel from 17:00-22:00…. The hotel was freezing especially the reception/breakfast place and had limited access to hot water.

It was convenient to explore the city

Stayed in April 2024

The bed was as hard as a board (in fact I thought we were actually sleeping on a wooden board). While the owner was helpful (he helped us with our bags on the morning of our departure), he refused to get us breakfast at 7.30 when I told him we were being collected at 8 for our trip to Tangier, stating that was too early (even though breakfast was included in our Tarif).

The location was wonderful, although if you book a room in the old town you’re guaranteed to be right in the heart of the blue city. Dar Gabriel, however, is located on one of the three most photographed lanes in Chefchaouen

Stayed in October 2023

Our rooms were in top floor so they heated up quickly during the day and the air-con just managed to cool them. The owner organised an air-con car from Chef to Fes for us that we had to pay her beforehand but unfortunately the air-con of the car did NOT work so we were baking over our 4 hours ride!

Location was good as a short walking distance from gate. Breakfast was pleasant but the same each morning. Mohamed, the Dar helper, was very helpful in numerous ways especially in organising car for God's Bridge.

Well . . . there was only one problem. A giant cockroach showed up in the bathroom the first night. Staff came immediately to find it, but it camouflaged itself on the wooden cabinetry. So we didn't use that bathroom all night. Then the next day my daughter found it and screamed louder than I had the night before. Staff came immediately and found it this time. I guess it can be expected when you're out in a remote location surrounded by so much greenery.

We were not expecting an entire villa all to ourselves. And the private pool was a bonus. There was more than enough space for our family of six. The food was delicious. It gave a very authentic feel and was not very expensive.
