Budget guesthouse in Tangier with sea views, clean rooms, and welcoming hosts. Rooftop terrace overlooking the harbor, simple breakfast, and good location near medina and port. Excellent value for money.
Dar Meziana is a small budget guesthouse tucked into a quiet street near Tangier's medina and port, an easy walk from the Kasbah and the ferry terminal for day trips to Spain. The building is a converted townhouse with whitewashed walls, tiled floors, and a mix of Moroccan and Spanish-Andalusian touches typical of Tangier's old town, giving it a homely rather than polished feel. Rooms are simple and clean, most with en-suite bathrooms, with a couple of higher rooms offering partial sea glimpses toward the Strait of Gibraltar. There is no restaurant on site, but the guesthouse serves a straightforward continental breakfast of bread, jam, eggs, and mint tea each morning, and the rooftop terrace doubles as the main social space, with loungers and sweeping views over the harbor and rooftops of the medina. There is no spa, pool, or gym, in keeping with its size and price point. Service is personal and informal, run by a small team or family who handle check-in, luggage, and local recommendations directly, and the property is well suited to solo travelers and couples on a budget who want walkable access to the medina rather than resort-style amenities.

Tips for visiting
- Book a room on a higher floor for a chance at sea views
- Bring cash for taxis, as small guesthouses in the medina area often don't have card readers nearby
- Ask staff for directions before heading into the medina, as the narrow lanes are easy to get lost in
- Pack light, since luggage may need to be carried up narrow stairs typical of old-town buildings
