Hotel Continental is a grand 19th-century hotel perched on a cliff overlooking Tangier's port and the Strait of Gibraltar. Its ornate Moorish architecture, including intricate tilework, carved stucco, and a central courtyard, reflects the city's rich cultural heritage. The hotel's rooftop terrace offers sweeping views of the harbor and the Mediterranean. Once a stopover for European travelers and diplomats, it remains a atmospheric place to stay or simply visit for tea and a glimpse of old Tangier.
