Overview

Dar Jasmine is a peaceful retreat offering a captivating view of the Medina of Chefchaouen. The hotel, a labor of love by owners Yasmina and Monsif, was designed by Kai Interiors and inspired by a romantic legend of love between a local woman and a British airman. This narrative is brought to life through the hotel's decor, executed by local artisans using traditional materials, creating a sense of relaxed luxury with a contemporary twist. The hotel's location within the blue city places you within a 5-minute walk of attractions such as Ras Elma Park and Chefchaouen Waterfall, with the Chefchaouen Kasbah and Plaza Uta el-Hammam slightly faster, about 10 minutes.

Each of the nine air-conditioned rooms at Dar Jasmine is a testament to thoughtful design, blending traditional decor with modern finishes. With a spectrum of suites named after cities across the globe, from Kensington to Jaipur, each room provides a unique aesthetic experience. The rooms also feature flat-screen TVs, blackout curtains, and bathrooms complete with showers and complimentary toiletries. Some rooms even offer private terraces, inviting you to relax and enjoy the panoramic view of Chefchaouen.

Dar Jasmine ensures your stay is comfortable and memorable, with amenities such as complimentary WiFi and beautiful views from a garden terrace. The hotel's culinary offerings are sure to delight, with a menu offering flavors from around the world as well as regional specialties based on fresh, seasonal local products. While the journey to this boutique hotel may be a climb—many past kimkim travelers have noted the number of steps—it's a small price to pay for the view and tranquil atmosphere that await at the top.

Hotel is short fifteen minute walk away from the medina. The hotel is located on a steep slope so there are a lot of stairs before reaching its entrance but there are porters to help.

Authenticity & Character
Welcome tea in garden was quite nice. Our rooms each had a balcony to enjoy the morning and sunset views.
Location
Beautiful views of the village and surrounding mountains but the hotel itself is perched on a steep hill so there are many, many stairs before one even reaches the hotel. The porters carry the bags for you but for older people, the climb would be too hard. Luckily, our parents had not yet joined our trip.
