Morocco’s First Waldorf Astoria

Hilton has unveiled the milestone signing of an agreement with Star Hill Tanger SA to open Waldorf Astoria Tanger, marking the debut of the iconic luxury Waldorf Astoria brand in Morocco. Scheduled to open in 2025, the resort will bring unrivalled luxury and elegant service to a prime location close to the country's northwest coast. 

Enveloped by lush greenery, Waldorf Astoria Tanger will be the ultimate luxury destination in Tanger – ideal for family holidays, a relaxing vacation, or exploring the city. The resort will be located near the Cape Spartel Reserve, making it a convenient launchpad to explore the historic Caves of Hercules and the famous lighthouse with panoramic views of the blue Mediterranean and Atlantic waters. 

"Introducing Waldorf Astoria to Morocco in partnership with Star Hill is an exciting move for Hilton, and we are pleased to debut this iconic brand in Tanger, a stylish destination which is witnessing rapid development," said Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Hilton. "Across Morocco, we are growing our portfolio of hotels, building on the significant momentum the country is experiencing for travel and tourism, with plans to nearly triple our presence in the coming years with openings from across our brand segments." 

Waldorf Astoria Tanger will comprise 115 modern guestrooms and suites, including 21 villas with private pools and a 1,250 square metre Royal Villa. In addition, the property's 3,000-square-metre luxury spa is set to be the largest holistic wellness destination in the country. 

The resort also offers an array of culinary delights across five unique restaurants, including the world-famous Peacock Alley, synonymous with the Waldorf Astoria brand. For business travellers, the property will also feature multi-functional meeting spaces and boardrooms, perfect for business gatherings, celebrations, and world-class events.
