Je suis arrivé à l hôtel vers 3 h de l après midi, et j ai trouvé une femme qui m attendait pour s excuser que c est impossible de se loger dans l hôtel à cause des problèmes causés par la pluie , elle m a dit qu elle a une option de logement dans l ancienne médina dans un sorte de riad, mais franchement c était une mauvaise expérience car je me loge jamais dans un Riad de souk et j ai horreur de ça , la chambre sentait humide et l odeur de quelque chose d ancien et je crois que j étais le seul client car il n ya aucun signe d autres clients, le matin j ai déjeuné seul aussi , et le petit déjeuner était en bas de la moyenne, le Riad ou la villa s appelait de l’ ō. C était une mauvaise expérience.
J ai pris trois photos du local où j ai passé la nuit que je peux vous les envoyés. Merci
Var nog en gång i tiden ett modernt lyxhotell, inte så längre. Får högsta betyg då inflationen på betyg ändå är så höga.
Bäst var närheten till havet och den trevliga personalen. Prisvärt var det också.
Saknade AC, men det gick bra i slutet av oktober. Ingenting torkade i fuktigheten så låna badhandduk på hotellet.
Essaouira är en perfekt stad på många sätt och rekommenderars före andra större kuststäder i närheten.
Très belle expérience. Hôtel qui ne paye pas de mine de l'extérieur mais qui a un charme fou à l'intérieur. Seul bémol. Il faut le trouver. Le nom de l'établissement est presque effacer à l'extérieur.

Grande chambre pour 3 adultes aux lits plutôt inconfortables.
Mobilier vétuste.
Jardinet agréable autour de la petite piscine.
Petits-déjeuners copieux.
Personnel très accueillant.
Hôtel à fuir
J’ai réservé et payé des chambres qui ne correspondent pas à la description
La chambre qui m’a été donné été sale , bruyante et une odeur nauséabonde
J’ai fait part de mon mécontentement à la réception qui n’a rien voulu entendre
Le petit déjeuner est passable avec jus d’orange industrie

Hôtel très simple et bien placé entrée médina
Très bon emplacement juste devant la mer et à l’entrée de la médina. Chambre simple. Attention pour les enfants il s’agit d’un simple canapé et non un canapé lit.
Petit déjeuner : la dame nous donne 1 verre d’eau pour 3 en confirmant qu’on ne peut pas en avoir 3.
Le réceptionniste Anouar très aimable.

Bof! Préférez un charmant Riad !
Un cadre agréable, mais une expérience en demi-teinte.
À notre arrivée, l’enregistrement s’est avéré laborieux : près de 30 minutes d’attente faute d’accès au système, puis, malgré une réservation confirmée par Hotel.com, des doutes exprimés quant à la disponibilité de notre suite. Un début de séjour pour le moins stressant.
La chambre bénéficie d’un bon matelas, mais le lit et le sommier grincent à chaque mouvement. Le dessus de lit, taché, aurait mérité d’être remplacé, autant pour l’hygiène que pour le confort visuel.
Le petit déjeuner, enfin, laisse un goût mitigé : premier jour, msemen sans saveur et jus d’orange industriel, ce qui est regrettable au Maroc ; le second jour fut meilleur, grâce à un service attentionné et quelques préparations à la demande.
En résumé : un emplacement séduisant, mais une qualité d’accueil et d’attention aux détails qui gagnerait à être rehaussée pour offrir une expérience à la hauteur de ce que le lieu pourrait proposer.

Reserve una suite con mis hijos,pagada ya,y cuando llegamos no había habitaciones libres.
Me ofrecieron,bueno me impusieron,ir a otro hotel sin piscina(que querían los críos),sin poder poner ninguna reclamación.
Lo mismo me ha pasado con Expedia.
Hay plataformas mas serias.
He ido muchas veces a marruecos y primera vez que me pasa
Lovely spot with convenient location for Medina and Beach. The staff, especially the receptionist were incredibly helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
Ocean vogabond is amazing place to stay Médina is only 5 minutes walking !!! The reception guy “Nordin” is very very helpful he told us everything we needed to know about Essaouira the smile doesn’t go from his face 😃 The Médina is full with a lot of restaurants to eat , stuff are so amazing And helpful , I highly recommend this place to anyone wants to visit Essaouira .
Great location, but hotel is run down and shabby. Staff show a lot of indifference and look bored. A shame because with a little more effort it could be great

Essauira ottimo villaggio
Posizione centrale ottima per raggiungere il centro vicinissimo alle spiagge si raggiunge in auto il parcheggio si trova contrattando il prezzo a30dhr per giorno con i parcheggiatori l’interno e piacevole la camera aveva un forte odore di muffa e il materasso spaccava letteralmente la schiena
Un hôtel, un petit bijou très bien placé. Un accueil chaleureux. Une suite fabuleuse.. un petit déjeuner et copieux et très bon. Et la piscine calme fraîche et propre...

Ist in die Jahre gekommen, z. B. Duschen nur in der Badewanne. Das Frühstück jeden Tag gleich.
Gute Lage zur Medima, aber Tagsüber Lärm von der Straße.
Für uns max. 3 Sterne.
Trsè bon emplacement proche plage et Médina.
Personnel charmant aux petits soins.
Décoration à thèmes africain, indou... très réussie.
Petit hôtel où on se sent bien.
