Yakout hostel

Twelve rooms make up Yakout Hostel on Rue Kerma, tucked into Tangier's residential quarter above the medina rather than inside its walls. The layout favors budget travelers and backpackers wanting a quiet sleep over nightlife proximity.

Shared kitchen and rooftop terrace look toward the Strait of Gibraltar; on clear mornings the Spanish coastline is visible without leaving the building. A ten-minute walk covers the descent into the Grand Socco and the medina's northern gate.

Staff arrange onward transport to Chefchaouen and Asilah, both common day trips from this side of the city.
