traditional mosaic tiles with their coppery sheen. The spotless, palatial rooms are truly fantastic
with big bathrooms (one has a Jacuzzi for two), the highest quality antique furniture and
beautiful silk bedspreads. There’s also a good, licensed restaurant with a Spanish touch to the
menu.

Pension Iberia €

the best budget option, with classic high-ceilinged rooms and shuttered balconies that open out
to the Pl Moulay el-Mehdi – book Room 11 if possible. Views of the white city flowing over the
hills and the fountain in the Place – better observed from here than from the street – add a
dash of romance. Bathrooms are shared and hot showers an extra Dh10. Located on the 3rd
floor above a bank, it has convenient public parking ( Parking Hammadi; Ave al-Jazaer ) 100m
away.

Hotel Regina €

larger budget choices, the Regina initially feels a bit tired, but the whitewashed walls and bright
Riffian fabrics manage to wake you up. While the bathrooms are sometimes worn, everything is
sparklingly clean which makes it decent value for money. There’s a cafe on the ground floor for
breakfast.

Dh40) Not your honeymoon suite, but performs the basic functions. The simple, uninspiring
rooms are clean, but the bathrooms are small. Institutional hallways accelerate you outdoors.

Riad Dalia €€

bathroom Dh150, d incl breakfast Dh400, ste Dh600) The first riad hotel in the medina, this
funky, family-run option desperately needs an overhaul. The 300-year-old former Dutch consul’s
house has been transformed into a hotel without much renovation, so it feels like the consul
may turn up at any moment. In fact, the proprietor has his ancient letters in a scrapbook at the
front desk, not to mention his stamp collection. The master suite is immense but it all smells a
bit musty.

Hotel Panorama Vista €€

incl breakfast Dh307/404; ) This is the best bet outside the medina. The rooms are chain-
hotel style, without any local ambience, but clean and with dramatic views over the Rif. The
popular cafe on the 1st floor, with its wall of glass, offers a strong Moroccan continental
