Our lounges are designed to make the very most of the magnificent views that the Rock enjoys. Afternoon teas, very much in the English style, are served here unfailingly each and every day with a shamefully high calorie count!Soft, squidgy sofas and armchairs are in abundance and can provide a welcome respite with a cool drink after a bustling holiday day or a busy day at the office.Above all, these are areas where you can really feel at home..........away from home.

The Barbary Bar, which opens out on to the Wisteria Terrace, has been refurbished in a style that incorporates a blend of colonial, Iberian and Moorish influences which literally reflect its location within the hotel. Along with a fully stocked bar there is also a food menu from which guests can enjoy culinary delights that also reflect our geography and history from the sandwiches and steak pies to

tapas and tagines! The service is efficient and courteous from members of our team who have been with us for much of their working lives. Relax in wicker furniture, listen to the hum of the ceiling fans, sip your favourite tipple and think of Noel Coward.The Wisteria Terrace itself, which blossoms twice a year, really is the place to be on a summer's evening. The views are stunning and in particular from this end of the hotel the view to Africa on clear days is magical, feeling that one could almost "touch" Morocco. Drinks, snacks and light meals are served here and tapas are a speciality. There is a delightful selection of interesting wines by the glass and our bar staff will gladly mix cocktails from our list or to your own specification if you prefer.The Wisteria Terrace is an exceptionally wonderful place to hold small wedding receptions.
