Dar Chams Tanja

Tangier


This attractive seven-bed maison d'hôte (B&B) is only a decade old – a rarity in the medina – so everything is spic and span. Rooms are bright with intricate Moroccan-style, colour-coordinated bed frames and furniture. The rooftop is home to an exquisite view and has solar panels that heat the guesthouse's water. An in-house hammam and massage room are for guests only.
