Flights to Algiers

Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Algeria’s capital is called Alger la Blanche (Algiers the White) in French, because of the white color of its buildings. Seemingly frozen in time, the majority of high-rises and villas exhibit French-influenced, richly textured architecture that’s fascinating for any traveler.

Whether it’s trawling through the ancient ruins of Casbah (now a Unesco World Heritage Site) or venturing outside the downtown area into the more contemporary neighborhoods, there’s something for everyone in this stunning city.

As the largest country in Africa, though vast parts of it are covered by the Sahara Desert and two national parks in the south, Algeria has many neighbors. Its big cities are influenced by those nearby, including Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, Niger, Mali, and Mauritania.

The people of Algiers are warm and friendly, and they enjoy their free time. In the evening, many residents can be seen out and about, socializing at seafront cafes or dining in one of the many restaurants. Arabic is the official language, but French is widely spoken. This influences the city’s nightlife scene, with restaurants and cafes focusing heavily on French, Middle Eastern, and North African food and drink.

Whether you're stopping over for a weekend or spending the week there, it’s well worth crossing Algiers off your travel bucket list.

What to do in Algiers

Visit the Kasbah/Casbah of Algiers

Right in the heart of Algiers is the ancient Kasbah (or Casbah) of Algiers, a charming neighborhood that remains fiercely traditional. This Unesco World Heritage Site is home to magnificent Ottoman-styled 17th-century palaces, including the mansion Dar Hassan Pacha, which played host to Napoleon Bonaparte. Next to it is the beautiful Ketchaoua Mosque, with the Djemaa El Djedid, El Kebir (Great Mosque of Algiers), and Ali Betchnin mosques also nearby.

Places to stay in Algiers

Hotel Emir

For those looking for a hotel on the outskirts of the city, Hotel Emir is a great option. With downtown just 6 km away, most landmarks are a mere 20-minute drive from here. This modern property has an outdoor swimming pool and shuttle service to Houari Boumediene Airport.

El Aurassi Hotel

Designed by the late Italian architect Luigi Moretti, El Aurassi has undergone renovations since it opened in 1975, with some of its decor auctioned off. While the five-star property is more geared toward the business traveler, it’s well worth stopping by its lounge (which is open to non-guests), where you can enjoy stunning views of Algiers.
