Casa Blue Star

Our venture to explore the magical and beautiful blue city of Chefchaouen started with a wonderful warm welcome at Casa Blue Star Hotel. The hotel is set amongst beautiful blue buildings with an amazing rooftop terrace, which provides an awe inspiring view of the Riff Mountains. We were greeted by Ghasan, a very warm, polite, friendly and helpful member of staff. Ghasan kindly allowed us to check in earlier than the allocated time and even made us a delicious freshly squeezed orange juice. Ghasan is very knowledgeable and kindly gave us a tour of the roof top terrace and informed of us the great things to do in Chefchaouen. We drove to Chefchaouen from Fes, which was a 4 hour journey. The hotel location provides free convenient road side parking. A stones throw from the hotel. The hotel boasts beautiful character and reflects the Blue Pearl City of Morroco. In both its warm welcome, exceptional hospitality and endless charm. We stayed in room number 4 and it was a beautiful studio, very spacious with a lounge area and a kitchenette. The room is impeccably clean and the decor is very moorish and has striking blue themed bohemian elegance. The air conditioning in the room was fabulous, as we had travelled in June when the temperatures were high. The hotel is walking distance to all the main attractions including the Medina, Kasbah museum and the Spanish Mosque. Ghasan recommended the walking trail to see the sunset at the Spanish mosque, which was very serene. There are ample food places and some great rooft top restaurants, within walking distance of the hotel. The hotel can provide a cooked dinner with notice, which is very convenient. The breakfast provided was outstanding, all cooked fresh and the mesmen was the best I have had. The breakfast setting was beautiful in the rooftop terrace and the breakfast hosts were friendly, helpful and courteous. There is the option to sit outside on the terrace or within the beautiful terrace room. We highly recommend a stay at Casa Blue Star, for those seeking a journey to explore the delights of Chefchaouen. Casa Blue Star ticks all the boxes for us and we hope others enjoy this fabulous first class hotel.

Deux nuits passées le 20 et 21 janvier dans ce Riad magnifique, à la décoration typique et d’une belle sobriété, très authentique ! L’accueil, la gentillesse, le professionnalisme, la discrétion, la convivialité, la propreté, la qualité des repas, …. Bref, tout a été parfait 👍 Et certains touristes diront sans doute « qu’il fait froid dans les Riad, qu’il n’y a pas de chauffage », alors bien évidemment, mais n’oublions pas que nous sommes en pleine hiver, au mois de janvier et les mâtinées, et les soirées sont fraîches, pour nos nuits la chaude literie et la belle couverture nous été d’un grand réconfort, et les journées d’une belle chaleur et très ensoleillées ☀️ Le village de Chefchaouen est pour moi la « Santorin » du Maroc, et impossible de ne pas aimer ce village (pas si petit que ça), des centaines de rues toutes bleues à se perdre dedans, mais c’est tellement plaisant et agréable, la gentillesse des commerçants, les vendeurs adorables avec cet éternel jeu de la négociation 😉 On y retournera c’est certain, mais cette fois-ci plus longtemps car c’était beaucoup trop court 😌
