Choosing ceremony and reception locations
For an indoor ballroom feel with historic details, the Gran Sala provides arched windows, a 1920s limestone fireplace and original Spanish Colonial accents — good for mid-size receptions and formal dinners.
If you prefer an outdoor skyline backdrop, Terrazza is the hotel’s rooftop terrace intended for smaller outdoor ceremonies (capacity around 100).
- Poolside/La Casita suits casual ceremonies or cocktail-style receptions with an informal vibe and pool access.
- Tangier’s Moroccan-inspired design works for themed celebrations, live music or DJ setups (built-in DJ booth noted).
- Bar Alta & Casbah are appropriate for rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, or intimate post-ceremony gatherings.
| Type of event | Suggested venue |
|---|---|
| Formal seated reception (100–120 guests) | Gran Sala |
| Outdoor ceremony (up to ~100 guests) | Terrazza |
| Cocktail party / after-party (up to 200 standing) | Tangier |

Permits, vendors and event coordination
The hotel’s Events Sales Manager assists with vendor access, timelines, load-in/load-out and any needed permits; different vendors may need scheduled elevator access or loading instructions.
Some venues (poolside or rooftop) have additional restrictions — for example, guest compendium pool rules and noise limitations — so confirm vendor setups and sound policies in advance.
- Request the hotel’s event floor plans and a list of preferred/approved vendors if you want guidance or to expedite approvals.
- Confirm whether the venue provides in-house AV, DJ booth access (Tangier includes a built-in DJ booth), linens, tables and chairs or whether you must rent them.
- Ask about timeline constraints for set-up and breakdown to avoid additional labor charges or conflicts with other events.
| Ask event sales for | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Floor plans and setup times | Ensure layout fits guest count and vendor needs |
| List of included items (AV, tables, chairs) | Avoid duplicate rentals or surprise charges |
| Load-in / elevator instructions | Smooth vendor arrivals and timely setup |
