Lina Ryad & Spa

Unfortunately, my hammam experience at Lina Ryad and Spa fell short of my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I felt rushed and didn't receive the personal care I was hoping for. The Hammam experience was disappointing and lacked the relaxing and rejuvenating a**osphere I was expecting. What's more, the shampoo provided was Patene, a non-Moroccan brand, which was a letdown given the hammam’s good reviews. I expressed my concerns to the lady attending to me, but unfortunately, it was not well received. Due to this, I'm unable to recommend the hammam to others. Perhaps they can take feedback on board to improve their services and provide a more authentic and relaxing experience for future guests.

After a couple of tiring days, we arrived at Lina Ryad, an oasis of calm and relaxation. The attentiveness and pleasantness of staff were the best we have experienced in a fair while. The welcome put us in the right frame and our room was exactly as expected. A swim in the pool was a great muscle relaxer and recharger. Our dinner and breakfast again were the best in a fair while. Luckily we had a guide to show us the way and carry our bags but once there, it was definitely worth it. Don’t forget to view the sunset or scenery from the rooftop. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting this amazing place.

This is a beautiful little ryad with great views of the blue city below. Be aware cars cannot drive into the old city so the hotel will send porters to bring your bags up for you, but you will have to make your own way up the hills and steps. We are both in good shape so it wasn’t an issue, but it was a problem for others. The entire town consists of narrow roads and steps and lots of great photo opportunities. (Unfortunately self-important influencer-types take and retake their videos while everyone else waits.). We were in room five with a big rooftop terrace and lounging beds on the terrace. Our room had beautiful blue tile work on the bathroom and a super comfortable bed— and they even had a top sheet instead of just a comforter with nothing else! This is a big plus for us. The AC was great and there was a little fridge. The walk-in shower was huge. Breakfast included more varieties and quantities of bread than we could ever consume. We had eggs made to order, heavenly fresh squeezed Orange juice and lots of fruit. Note that alcohol is not sold anywhere within the old city walls. There is only one bar just outside the walls where you can buy wine, beer, etc. You can take wine back to the ryad and have it with dinner there. It’s about a 10-15 walk down from the ryad. We stayed two nights here. One night is not enough for this place.

We stayed for one night as part of a tour group in March 2024. It was rainy the day we arrived but that did not dampen our mood as we arrived after climbing a flight of winding steps to reach the hotel. It was a small quaint hotel unlike those big establishments and it was cozy and warm when we enter the hotel. I felt myself being inside a cave as the decor and ambience were so beautiful and the peace that is away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The rooms were spacious and clean though the fittings were a bit dated and I guess it all adds up to the charm of the place. As the place is rather compact we can actually hear the voices of our neighbour talking but it was no big deal. There are no elevators so it will be challenging if you have to lug your heavy bags to your room so best to travel light if visiting this city. The breakfast and dinner were more than adequate and clearly reflects the culture of Moroccan food. It was tasty and delicious. Highly recommend to stay at this hotel for the experience.

This Ryad in Chefchaouen is simply wonderful. The location, staff, services and breakfast, liked everything. The hotel decor is beautiful, all in blue color to match the blue city of Chefchaouen. The high point of the hotel is the rooftop, which gives the 360 degree view of the city and mountains. You can watch the sunset on the rooftop too. The tourist places are just down the road, with a lot of restaurants and shopping options are there. Except for carrying luggage, everything else is managed by women here and they are doing a wonderful job. Only difficulty we faced with noise in the night, which disturbed our sleep constantly, otherwise we loved our stay here and highly recommend this hotel.

I was amazed at the quality of hotel accommodation in Morocco and this hotel was no exception. Friendly staff, great dinner and breakfast, and beautiful bed linen and pillows. My room had its own sitting area. The bedroom was a vision in white and blue.
