“Nice and comfortable guesthouse in a very convenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

I had a very pleasant stay at Dar Jameel. The staff (especially Mustafa) was exceptionally welcoming and knowledgeable - I felt comfortable in my surroundings right away. The guesthouse is located right on the fringe of the Old Medina and right by Hotel Continental (in case you need to give directions to the petit taxi coming from the bus or train station - I found that none of the drivers knew where Dar Jameel was or its street address), so it's very convenient for visiting the nearby souks.

Tangier was one of our last stops in Morocco; and while Dar Jameel was a lovely stay (and yes, it does have THE BEST breakfast of any riads or dars we stayed at during our 3-week travel), its price was slightly more expensive as compared to our other stays, especially considering the bare room decoration. The bathroom was not in the room, but it was not inconvenient whatsoever. We used the hotel's taxi service for an afternoon trip to Cap Spartel and Grotto d'Hercules - that was lovely but may not be worth the money. I'd recommend a grand taxi trip (shared ride in a car with 6 total passengers for 20dh each) to Asilah instead.

Overall, Dar Jameel was a great stay (great breakfast, great view, comfortable rooms and knowledgeable staff); but if you're budget-conscious, you may want to keep searching (or skip the city altogether as it is definitely working off a different price range compared to the rest of Morocco).

Room Tip: I would try to choose a room on a higher floor (if you're capable of climbing stairs - no elevat...

“Great surprise!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

With just one night in Tangier before we flew home we literally just chose a place to stay at random. We are so happy we lucked out with this place as it was really beautiful and the staff were excellent. Tea and pastries on arrival on the sunny roof terrace. Rooms very spacious with comfortable large beds, everything was beautifully decorated. It was lovely for our last night in Morocco.

Room Tip: If you want a sunny room for a room above the courtyard roof.

“Treated like royalty here, will absolutely return!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

AS others mentioned, do not judge this hotel by the outside appearance. It is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING on the inside. The mosaics, the colors, the peacefulness that surrounds you upon entering. We were welcomed by Mustafa at approximately 12pm, who was extremely kind and welcoming. He carried our four bags up to the 4th floor--there are no elevators here..all steps. As my father is older, he was not able to go up all the steps and asked if the room could be switched to one on the first floor. He happily made this possible. The rooms are nice, colorful and spacious. The bathroom is outside of the room--but you have 1/2 of the floor to yourself. The bedroom is strictly for sleeping. There are no TVs in the rooms..which coming from the US was shocking--but I really appreciated it at the end of the day and wouldn't have it any other way. The bed was comfortable and the rooms were warm. When we woke up we had a delicious breakfast on the top floor with a beautiful view of the city. You MUST stay here. This is no 2 star place 5 STAR!!!! I will return with my friends!!!!!

“Convenient”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

Driss, the manager, is a calm, collected, helpful and well informed person - multi-lingual too, which helps. The building is most original on the first two floors - intricate, fabulous tiles and high ceilings. The next two floors were added later and seemed a bit added on. We were four floors up...only stairs...great exercise. Our room included a bathroom; others did not. Careful when you book to make sure there are no surprises. Breakfast was good but I did not find it amazing as some have indicated. Location was great - 2 minutes from medina and 8 minute walk to port that connects with Spain. Boats connect to Tarifa NOT Algeciras but there is a free bus that will take you from T to A in about 15 minutes. Room was quite comfy but wenwere three and the "extra bed" was lumpy and tough to sleep on. I thought the value was good.

Room Tip: Some rooms have no bathroom. Choose carefully.

“Fantastic riad, welcoming staff, best breakfast in morocco.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

person found this review helpful

The room was fabulous, traditional intricate ceilings and wood paneling, lots of style. The Welsh manager is very welcoming and friendly and helpful as are the moroccan staff. Situated in the medina near the port gate so it is very accessible. We would have stayed on our return leg but it was booked out already.
