Lalla Soulika
$150-280/ notte
Prenota se You want the soul of a historic Riad with the polish of a boutique hotel—and a rare parking spot in the Kasbah.
Perché piace così tanto
- Rooftop terrace with sweeping views of the Medina and Bay of Tangier
- Exceptional, personalized service that feels like staying with wealthy friends
- Spacious, art-filled suites that dwarf typical Riad accommodations
In sintesi: It’s a stunning, authentic sanctuary, but don't expect a swimming pool or an elevator that reaches every single nook.
Recensito da @riadlovers: I felt like absolute royalty staying here. The living area is huge with incredible stained glass, but having that private plunge pool right in my bathroom was the highlight of the trip. It's the perfect spot to disconnect.

- You value design and history over resort amenities
- You need a safe, free place to park your rental car

“I'd love a room on an upper floor for maximum light and privacy. If available, a suite with a balcony would be amazing, even if it overlooks the garden.”
FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is there a swimming pool?
No. There is a hot tub/Jacuzzi and a sun terrace, but no swimming pool.
Is it hard to find?
It can be tricky. It's in the Marshan district near the Phoenician Tombs; use the hotel's transfer or a petit taxi to 'Rue Ben Aliem'.
Do they serve alcohol?
Yes, there is a bar/lounge and a rooftop gin bar.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, and it's highly rated—often served on the rooftop with a view.
Is it safe at night?
Yes, the Marshan area is generally safe and upscale, near the King's palace, but always take a taxi late at night.
Does the elevator go to all floors?
Mostly, but expect some split-level stairs or steps to the very top terrace.
Suggerimenti degli Insider
- ✨
Ask for breakfast on the rooftop terrace—the view of the Strait is unbeatable.
- ✨
The 'water sports facilities' listed online are likely off-site arrangements; don't expect jet skis in the lobby.
- ✨
The hotel is a 6-minute walk from the Phoenician Tombs—go at sunset for the best photo op in Tangier.
5 cose da sapere prima di partire
💡The 'Rif Suite' balcony is private but has no view—it's a walled sanctuary.
💡The elevator is a rare luxury for a historic building but can be slow.
💡You might get a ride in a golf cart to your taxi if you have heavy bags.
💡The 'automatic light' outside some rooms can be sensitive and annoying at night.
💡It's technically just outside the Medina walls, which makes access easier than being deep inside the maze.
