El Minzah offers an atmospheric stay with its fantastic location, perfect for exploring the Medina and Kasbah on foot. The classic Moroccan architecture is beautiful, and the outdoor pool is a peaceful retreat. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, with great choices and lovely views. On-site dining and the spa (especially the hammam) were convenient additions. Overall: For a hotel with character, an unbeatable location, and a taste of Tangier's history, El Minzah is a great choice. Superb location for exploring. Beautiful historic building and atmosphere. Lovely pool. Delicious breakfast. Convenient dining and spa.

Breakfast variety

Traditional place with lots of history which is pictured in the inner yard of the hotel. Staff takes good care of the pool, inside pool is really heated, towels provided at both. Breakfast not truly continental but they make eggs to your liking. We got upgraded to the suite and enjoyed beatiful views of the Tangier port. Hotel restaurant serves alcohol so after testing many other places we ended up having a beer or glass of wine at the hotel due to its convenience and reasonable prices.

Cleaning was not the best when we checked-in but got better the next day. The interior of the spa shows its age. But we could see maintenance guys doing various works during our stay and we could hardly imagine how much work there is around such vast complex.

Location is superb - within easy walking distance of the Kasbah, the port and the Medina.

The hotel has been around for a long time (established in 1930s) and is unquestionably living on its past reputation. The hotel is tired and in need of some serious maintenance with many minor problems just not fixed - our in house phone had malfunctioned and was letting out a loud beeping sound. The solution just unplug it - no fix offered. The staff are off hand and in the restaurant downright arrogant bordering on rude. Overall it was a disappointing stay and I would not recommend this hotel.

Plenty of staff in evidence both in housekeeping and at breakfast. They were very efficient, polite and well trained. The location, between the old and new towns, was ideal for a short visit, and I particularly appreciated the sea view from the room.

The breakfast was very good, but could be improved in terms of the range of foods, and consistency (e.g. I enjoyed salad on some days, but there was none on others; same for granola). The hot food was unappetising and I personally avoided it. The coffee machine was a disappointment. A selection of teas and infusions would have been welcome. The 'fitness centre' was not up to the best standards.

The room was spacious, modern and comfortable with a view of the port. The reception staff are great.The spa was a bit disorganised but the treatments were at a high standard and the pool area and jacuzzi are an added benefit. The breakfast offers a wide variety of options for every palate. I would highly recommend this hotel in Tanger. It is also walking distance to the medina which is just perfect.

The lighting in the bathroom was a bit dim but otherwise, very spacious and modern. As mentioned above the spa was a bit disorganised but in the end it's forgotten as the massages were top-notch and the jacuzzi and pool area were great.

We loved this historic hotel with all of the pictures of famous guests scattered around the hotel. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Breakfast is amazing with a large selection of items. The bar is great with a piano for live music and the restaurant also serves lunch and dinner. The staff is awesome! They are so kind and helpful. It's also in a great location. You can walk to the medina in 5 minutes and there are a lot of shops and restaurants in the immediate area.

The only thing we did not like was the spa. We treated ourselves to massages, manicures, and pedicures and had a terrible experience. We left with bloody cuticles from the manicure and during the massage, the masseuse coughed and sneezed the entire time. The spa also did not seem very clean.

An utterly charming hotel in a fabulous location. I loved the history & the beautiful original features yet the room was modern & clean. Lovely outdoor pool area to sit & enjoy a G&T. The morrocan restaurant was good & included a morrocan traditional band & dancers. We enjoyed looking at the photos of all the famous people who have stayed at the hotel since the 1920s.

The staff were not very friendly; polite but lacking any warmth and no smiles! A very formal & old-fashioned hospitality style! The hotel overall looks like it needs a spruce up, it's showing its age in places. The breakfast was a bit ramshackle, again, poor hospitality from.the staff who were not welcoming and were not on top of the table clearing etc.

Beautiful hotel, close to the Medina. Lovely terrace with view of the bay. The rooms were so cute and spacious. The shower was hot with good water pressure. The pillows were so soft and comfortable. Quiet and peaceful area. The staff were so nice and accommodating.

The pool was not open, which was one of the reasons we booked this hotel. Very disappointed. The bed was too hard and uncomfortable for me. The curtains did not block out the morning sun. The lighting in the bathroom was too dim. The breakfast was undesirable. The wine bar food was not very good.

The pool was very nice!

Vintage, atmospheric hotel perfectly located overlooking Tangier harbor at the edge of the Medina in a very lively neighborhood of shops, restaurants and cafes. Views from my balcony were spectacular, sights in the Medina were a short stroll away, and there was a beautiful pool in the landscaped garden. Rooms and public areas are clean, comfortable, and charming. WiFi was strong in the room and at the pool. The hotel offers great value.

The hotel is in need of a thorough freshening including updating details…painting, lighting, repairs etc. to regain its former glory. Services are adequate but not polished.
