Featuring quality amenities and top service standards associated with the brand, Holiday Inn Algiers offers a selection of family friendly dining options with two restaurants including ‘Le 101’, which is located at the top of the hotel and provides a scenic view of the city and an all-day dining restaurant – ‘Ikosium’.
