    Awesome view and comfortable stay
    • Leisure trip

    • Superior Room with Sea View
    • Stayed 1 night

    Breakfast was served and not a buffet, but it was still a good variation,

    The room with the view to the sea was awesome! Very nice to listen even to the sound of the waves below your window... Comfortable bed and clean room. Breakfast is served on the roof top where you can also relax and enjoy the panorama view. Very friendly employees and all in the bets stay during my time in Marocco!

    The best view in Essaouira, definitely worth coming and taking a seaview room. The staff is very attentive and the rooms are proper. Good breakfast and nice rooftop restaurant with a view.

    Nothing. I loved it all.

    Everything. Great location, stunning city. The view from our room was magical (directly over the city walls and on to the beach on 2 sides) and waking up to the sunrise and the sound of the sea was just dreamy. There's a lovely rooftop restaurant and outdoor space. The staff were so helpful and kind making our stay magical and perfect for a surprise proposal!

    Take the mini-suite for your stay in Essaouira, or at least for a night or two.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Mini Suite with Sea View
    • Stayed 2 nights

    At this price point, replace the (understandably) rusted bathroom bin and some threadbare towels. Also did not appreciate one of the guys at reception being a bit fresh with me (not the young bespectacled gentleman – he was always kindly and welcoming) – if I ask for new Wifi codes because the previous ones have stopped working, I do not want to be told with a straight face, multiple times, that I cannot get new ones, as a joke. I am generally quite good-humoured about such 'jesting', but as a solo female traveller who looks young, I get quite enough of it walking through the streets and do not need it in a relatively expensive hotel.

    As others have said, paying more for the mini-suite with sea view is worth it. Sleeping to the sounds of crashing waves is a rare treat, all the more because short of a villa, most other countries tend to put an un-openable window in such rooms. Bed is comfortable; housekeeping excellent. Bathroom is modern with Moroccan tiles; good water pressure.Staff at reception are professional and discreet – understated but top-notch service. Staff on terrace and at breakfast are friendly too but seem more inexperienced. Breakfast is not the sumptuous feast you might expect of a traditional riad, but then again, Mimouna is really more like a fully-fledged hotel that is architecturally Moroccan.

    The bath was cracked - and one of the plug came off the wall. - for a very up market and premium price, I thought it was disappointing.

    There were no robes or slippers in the room, which isn't a big deal, but would have been nice to have.

    The view was incredible, and the location of the Riad was in a great spot. It was centrally located and had incredible views from both the room and the rooftop restaurant and patio.

    I was photographing the beautiful tilework and design before we'd finished checking in; the memorable beauty of design in the large sitting room where we were served tea.

    I hosted a Moroccan Writing Retreat that started in Marrakesh and ended at Riad Mimouna in Essaouira. The property exceeded all of our expectations! Participants had their own spacious, private oceanfront suites. The restaurant and outdoor rooftop space had a panoramic view of The Atlantic Ocean and the Medina. We were near other restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, fishing boats, and the main square near the beach. We had a private dining room for a literary salon where each writer read her work. It was a GREAT choice for a group. None of us wanted to leave! At Southern Girl Gone Global you'll find videos of this property that can't be captured in photos or words.

    I would like to have a "buffet" for breakfast instead of the way it was. but overall the breakfast was okay. Also, I'd like if the check in time was a bit earlier, I think checking in at 3pm was a bit late, I'd like it was at 1pm for example.

    Almost everything. It was really good.

    The beds were a bit hard. The room towards the sea was lovely, but as there was no air conditioning we had to have the window open and the noise was more than we expected.

    The staff were very helpfull and friendly. We were given tips of things to do. And always met with a smile. The view was amazing
