Stunning Riad, with a more modern feel. We had a very warm welcome, with a full introduction to Essaoira. Beautiful rooms and breakfast in the roof where you can see the sea.
It’s situated just off a Main Street and feels very safe and the breakfast was amazing. Couldn’t recommend this enough, we only stayed 2 night but I could easily have stayed a week!
Was amazing! We loved our stay at the riad. Staffs are informative and very helpful. Breakfast spot was fantastic! We stayed in other riad but this riad was the best !
Staff are amazing. Friendly and very accomodating. Lovely breakfast each morning served with a big Moroccan smile. A beautiful place to stay. Would definitely return.
We stayed in room 3. Sadly, the bathroom emits a horrible sewage odor from the drains. The odor is so strong it made us gag—the smell of sewage is disgusting. In order to enjoy the room, the windows need to be left open, which is fine during the day, but not at night when trying to sleep.
On mentioning the issue to the staff, little was done to resolve the issue. We also asked to move to another room and the request was not fulfilled.
At the very least we should have been credited back part of our stay for having to sleep in a room that really was unacceptable due to the sewage smell issue.
Otherwise lovely hotel and ambiance. Super friendly staff and good location.
It’s a shame, our issue wasn’t taken more seriously and/or remedied. We expected better at this price point.
It was quiet in my room at night. The view on the roof is nice, but I thought it would be closer to the ocean from the picts. It’s pretty deep in the Medina…with the port area nearest..which is kinda nasty/stinky. My room was small but clean, a window that opened to a wall.
Sehr schönes Zimmer. Top-Lage. Morgens gibt es ein sehr leckeres Frühstück auf der Dachterrasse mit wunderbaren Ausblick, sogar bis aufs Meer!
Die Gastgeberin ist sehr nett.
Wäscheservice gibt es auch.
Camille et son équipe ont été très accueillants ! Mohamed et Ayoub était toujours présents pour répondre à nos questions ou besoins. L’emplacement est parfait. Si vous avez une voiture le stationnement est loin. Environ 10 min marche.
Parked the car at Bab Marrakesh and hired a trolley man for MAD20 who took us to the Riad. Was welcomed personally by Camilla and Jean-Charles. Thoroughly enjoyed our short overnight stay. Will definitely recommend to friends
Un tres bon accueil, un tres bel endroit decore avec gout et tres bien placé dans la medina
La terrasse est superbe
Je conseille vivement

Riad de charme à essaouira
Un charmant riad situé dans la médina. Un accueil des plus chaleureux par Camille et Jean Charles couple adorable toujours disponible et prêt à vous conseiller. Un petit déjeuner savoureux et copieux servi en terrasse. Un endroit où l on se sent bien dans une atmosphère détendue et paisible. Je serais ravi d y revenir.
Séjour fantastique. Merci à Toute l’équipe !!!
Rien à dire. Je recommande les yeux fermés.
Le service est impeccable. Les personnes très sympathiques et serviables. La ville est magique. L’emplacement est idéal.
Merci Camille & Jean-Charles
Overall enjoyed our stay. Loved the decor, food was excellent, comfortable bed, was nice and quiet. Enjoyed having breakfast on the roof terrace. The owners went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed.
Accueil chaleureux et bonne suggestion par le propriétaire lui-même. La terrasse, à elle-seule, vaut le détour ! Chambre propre et agreabagréables. En plein coeur de la Medina, facile d'accès et bien située. Petit déjeuner délicieux. L'intérieur du Riad est superbe et bien agréable.
Elegant riad, central location, newly renovated, excellent manager, welcoming staff, delicious breakfast on the amazing terrace with views across the medina to the ocean. What's not to love? Perfect!
Wunderschönes Riad in der Medina von Essaouira. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und fühlten uns wie zu Hause. Die Dachterrasse hat einen fabelhaften Ausblick über die ganze Medina, bis hin zum Meer. Ich habe nur Positives zu berichten und werde sicherlich wieder kommen!
Super séjour au Ryad. J’ai été très bien accueillie et conseillée dès mon arrivée.
La chambre était très jolie et le lit simple plus grand que la moyenne !
Petit déjeuner copieux et servi sur la sublime terrasse avec vue panoramique sur Essaouira.
Rien à redire, je reviendrai!
