Lovely Riad in the Heart of Essaouira
Accommodation was great, plenty of space and well decorated. Breakfast was a nice way to start the day and the rooftop seating was a great spot to chill.

This is a lovely riad, in the heart of the Medina. Our room overlooked an alley, and was not soundproofed, so we did not sleep well on some nights, but the riad was otherwise delightful. Breakfast was simple and served at a communal table, which did not suit us, but was not the end of the world. Ask for a room away from the alley and you will enjoy a great stay (and a good sleep) in a beautiful establishment.

Right off a main walkway in the middle of the medina (old town). The inside is like a quiet oasis from the bustle outside, each room decorated different. My first stay in a riad. Traditional but modern. Not accessable by car, about a 10 walk from road. If you have luggage, there are porters with wagons that will pull your stuff for you.

Helt fantastisk vistelse i denna underbara Riad. Super tryggt, rent, fräscht 10/10. Älskade även balkongen!
Meryem & teamet var alltid superhjälpsamma med att möta alla mina behov och gick verkligen extra milen för att göra vistelsen så bra som möjligt! Skulle absolut komma hit igen! Tack för allt :-)

Saubere und ruhige Zimmer (vom täglichen Muezzin abgesehen). Manchmal abends ein wenig lauter wegen eines darunter liegenden Restaurants aber es war nicht wirklich störend.
Personal war immer zuvorkommend und freundlich. Auch ein direktes Angebot für ein Transport vom Flughafen zum Riad kam Initial vom Hotel was sehr hilfreich war. Insbesondere um das Riad Initial zu finden in den Gassen von Essaouira war der Transport enorm hilfreich.
Ich würde jederzeit wieder dort buchen
