El Aziz Inn - Cheraga
Family-friendly Cheraga inn for western arrivals
About this hotel
El Aziz Inn plays a similar role to other Cheraga properties on this list, a western-Algiers base for fans driving in from that direction, but does it with a more family-friendly, relaxed inn atmosphere than the bigger tower hotels nearby. That makes it a reasonable pick for parents bringing children to a match who want a calmer, less corporate setting to come back to afterwards. The crosstown drive to Bab Ezzouar is real from here, the same as any Cheraga property, so this is a hotel for families who've already planned transport rather than those hoping to walk to the ground. The pace here is deliberately unhurried compared to a bigger tower hotel nearby, which suits families managing young children through the tail end of a long travel day better than a busy, corporate lobby would.
- Family-friendly
- Cheraga location
- Relaxed inn setting
- Good for children
Our take
A relaxed option for families arriving from western Algeria who want a family-friendly inn setting over a large tower hotel. It's a genuine drive to Bab Ezzouar, so build transport time into the day, and this suits a calmer pace better than a quick in-and-out matchday visit. It's a particularly good fit for a first family trip to an Algeria match, where a smaller, more personal setting can take some of the intimidation out of an unfamiliar city and a huge crowd.
- Plan at least forty minutes for the drive to Bab Ezzouar from Cheraga
- Ask staff about family room configurations when booking
- Confirm check-in flexibility if arriving with young children after a long drive
Why we love it
- Family-friendly, relaxed inn atmosphere
- Western-Algiers Cheraga base
- Calmer alternative to big tower hotels
- Good fit for arrivals with children
Why guests love itWe drove in from the west with two young kids and wanted somewhere that felt less corporate than a big tower hotel, and this fit the bill. Staff were patient and helpful with the kids at check-in after a long drive, and the crosstown trip to Bab Ezzouar the next day took some real planning but wasn't a problem once we knew the route.
