Dar Chams Tanja

We loved the peaceful charming road w/such personalized service. Noura called prior to our arrival to arrange transportation and help finding the riad once taxi dropped us just outside Medina wall. We were able to have a hamman ( scrub) and masssge at the riad. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. They arranged a guide for us to tour the Medina, etc. overall wonderful and would stay here again.

This is a modern hotel designed in a riad style within the old medina. The staff is very very helpful and friendly and they can provide any sort of service you might need. The decoration in the common areas is beautiful, moroccan and modern. It is located in the residential area of the medina and within walking distance to the main attractions. The rooms have everything you need and are comfortable, but in my opinion they are a bit 'suffocated' since they do not have windows towards the outside, only towards the inside patio and that could make you feel a bit exposed. Also, there is no lift, so you have to use the stairs but it is only 4 stories tall. Please note that Tangier's medina is hilly, so you have to go up and down all the time and this applies to your way towards the hotel.

The staff was very helpful and responsive. They gave great support with reservations and what to see.

Dar Chams is beautifully located in the medina . It’s charmingly appointed with many restful areas including a pretty roof terrace . Noura and her team work hard to make sure their guests’ needs are well met

We stayed 3 days at Dar Chams Tanja. The hotel is lovely and in the heart of the old city. Our room was clean, spacious with a nice bathroom. The breakfast was good. The best part of Dar Chams is Nora and her staff! They are all so kind and helpful. For first time visit to Tangier, they made us feel so welcome. If you want to stay in the old Medina, stay here.

We had a wonderful stay at Dar Chams Tanja - the place was beautiful, the room comfortable, the staff wonderful and very helpful, especially Noura who helped us by organizing excursions and recommending places to visit / things to do / restaurants to eat at. The casbah and medina are right at the doorstep.

My husband and I and another couple stayed 4 nights in Dar Chams Tanja. It was beautiful, clean and spacious with many nice amenities. Both the breakfasts and dinners were delicious and beautifully presented and served by quiet and attentive staff. Eating on the rooftop terrace with a wonderful view was an added bonus. All of the staff was friendly and attentive to our needs but Noura, the manager was outstanding. She had many communications with me before our arrival and made herself available at all times during our stay. She was very professional and helpful, arranging for transportation on arrival and departure, recommending restaurants and authentic shopping as well as arranging guided tours of Tangier and Asilah. The tour guide she booked for us, Hamza was very knowledgeable and friendly and accommodated our schedule and all requests including assisting us with providing food for some of the homeless animals in the city and arranging for a camel ride on the beach. In addition, Noura acted as our liason with a tour company we had reserved before arriving. Her assistance was invaluable. We all loved our stay in Dar Chams Tanja and would highly recommend it. If we go back to Tangier we most definitely will stay there again.

If you want to immerse yourself in culture than this is the hotel for you. However, it comes at a price: inconvenience and con artists .To truly enjoy this lovely hotel and its hospitality you should not book any tours or transportation before 10 am, as breakfast does not start until 8:30 and the gates leading into the Casbah do not open early, which means quite a very confusing hike in a hilly area to cabs. Because Morracans stay up late the streets are noisey well past midnight, (we had a lively drummer under playing under our window) especially on Holy Days .

The building, furniture and interior design are so pretty and the staff was very kind. The guide tour arranged by the hotel was also nice. Good experience of the first visit to Morocco.
