The staff is absolutely amazing, providing jaw-dropping service with a smile. The rooftop terrace is mind-blowing, with a glassed-in seating area for cozy chilling. The unique charm of the riad, with its mix of modern art and authentic Moroccan style, is super impressive. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the market, beach, and harbor. The breakfast is excellent, with a great selection of freshly prepared fruit salad and delicious breads. The rooms are lovely and the value for money is outstanding. Can't wait to come back!

The location of this hotel is great, close to restaurants, markets, and attractions. You can easily explore the port, shops, and restaurants from this convenient spot. The staff at this hotel were awesome—super helpful and friendly. The rooms, especially the ones on the top floors, were large with doors and windows that opened onto a central courtyard. Plus, the breakfast was delicious, with fresh orange juice, coffee, eggs, bread.
All was more than okay, nothing to improve.

We really enjoyed our recent city break at this hotel. The breakfast options were great, particularly the freshly squeezed orange juice and pastries. The location was ideal, being close to both the sea and the local market. the quiet atmosphere of the hotel made for a very peaceful stay.
That the towels didn't smell as fresh as we expected, which made us wonder about their cleanliness. there were some ongoing renovations that made it difficult to fully enjoy the rooftop terrace during our stay.

I had such a great time staying at this hotel in Essaouira. The location was perfect, as it was close to the sea with a lovely view. The hotel itself had a warm and cozy vibe, with rooms that had big glass windows built on the terrace. It was so nice to enjoy the view even on chilly mornings. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the breakfast served on the terrace was delicious.
I wish there was more variety in the breakfast options.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel for 10 days. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. My room was spacious and beautiful, with big glass windows that provided breathtaking views of the sea. The location was perfect, close to the harbor and just a short walk to the beach. The breakfast served every morning was a delicious start to the day.
Everything was perfect!

The staff were super friendly and treated us like fam. We rented bikes and had a blast exploring the area, cycling through the streets like true adventurers. And the best part? Bike hire was available at the riad, making it super convenient for us. It added that extra element of excitement to our trip!
If there was one thing we wished for, it would be a party vibe at the riad. As young party-goers, we were hoping for some lively music or a social gathering where we could meet other travelers and have a blast together.

the hospitality of Abdul and the staff made me feel like I was at home. From the moment I arrived, they went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and enjoyment. the highlight of my stay was when Abdul invited me to join in on a group dinner with authentic Gnaoua music. It was a truly special experience that I will never forget. the room was clean and comfortable, with great amenities like hot water and a cozy bed. the rooftop terrace provided breathtaking views of the Atlantic and the Medina, and was the perfect spot to relax with a cool sea breeze. the location of the riad was also ideal, close to the ramparts, restaurants, the port, and the beach. I cannot thank Abdul and his staff enough for making my stay so memorable. I am already looking forward to my next visit. Cons: Nothing to be said.
