3 Best Nightlife in Tangier and the Mediterranean, Morocco

The laid-back terrace bar at this chic hotel is the perfect spot for sundowners as you gaze across the sea to Spain. Pair your negroni or chilled Moroccan rosé with some nibbles—plump olives, salted almonds—and drink in the views until stars dot the sky and the city lights sparkle. 

A late-night libation at the Tangerinn Pub in El Muniria hotel, a vestige of the former International Zone, is the opportunity for literary nostalgia. After all, your bar stool may have supported the likes of William Burroughs (who wrote Naked Lunch in what was formerly Room 9), Allen Ginsberg, and Jack Kerouac. They probably wouldn’t recognize it today, though; on weekends it teems with beer-drinking expats and young Moroccans, and techno blasts from the speakers. The hotel itself has seen better days and is not the best option for a good night's sleep.
