Sky 28 is the lounge bar on the top floor of the Kenzi Tower Hotel in Casablanca, 115 metres up inside the Twin Center on Boulevard Mohamed Zerktouni. Now also branded Skies, it spreads a cocktail lounge and a restaurant across the 28th and 27th floors, behind glass walls that face the Hassan II Mosque, the port and the Atlantic. The lounge runs from 3pm to 1am, with live entertainment early in the evening and resident DJs later.
Perché andarci
Sky 28 in Casablanca is the lounge bar on the 28th and top floor of the Kenzi Tower Hotel, inside the Twin Center on Boulevard Mohamed Zerktouni.
The Twin Center was designed by the Catalan architect Ricardo Bofill and completed in 1999, and its 115 metre towers are still among the tallest buildings in the city.
Floor to ceiling glass looks over the Hassan II Mosque, the port and the Atlantic, which is why sunset is the busiest hour of the day.
It is one of the very few genuine sky bars in Casablanca rather than a terrace one or two floors above the street.
Musica e atmosfera
The lounge programmes live entertainment early in the evening and hands over to resident DJs later on.
Seating is armchairs and low tables around a curved central bar, so it stays a drinking and talking room rather than a club with a dance floor.
Cocktails are mixed by the hotel's in house mixologist, alongside wine and beer.
The bar menu runs to refined tapas and sushi if you want something to eat without moving down to the restaurant.
Orari di apertura
The 28th floor lounge bar is open daily from 3pm to 1am.
The restaurant one floor below, on the 27th, serves lunch from 12pm to 3pm and dinner from 7pm to 11pm.
After work specials run daily between 5pm and 8pm.
Ingresso
Sky 28 is open to the public, not only to guests staying at the Kenzi Tower Hotel.
The dress code is casual, although most people arriving for the evening dress up a little.
Window tables go first at sunset, so on a Friday or Saturday it is worth calling the hotel earlier in the day.
Da sapere
The bar is fully enclosed behind glass rather than open air, so it works just as well in wind or in winter.
Access is by lift from the Kenzi Tower Hotel lobby, in the east tower of the Twin Center.
The Twin Center rises above a five level shopping centre on Boulevard Mohamed Zerktouni, a short taxi ride from the Hassan II Mosque.
