You might not be able to see the Djemaa El Fna from Le Salama's light-filled 'sky bar', but the 360-degree views from its floor-to-ceiling windows make up for it, particularly with a sundowner in hand. With Middle Eastern beats and trailing foliage hanging from the roof, it's a surprisingly atmospheric place for drinks. Bonus: happy hour (2-for-1) runs virtually all day.
