Lock in a great price for Riad Mimouna – rated 8.7 by recent guests!

to get started.

Staff were most helpful. They really looked after us. The breakfast was very filling. The sea view from our room was stunning. The roof terrace is superb. The location is good for access to the Medina.

Angela, United Kingdom

Fantastic 360 degree views of sea and city from the roof terrace, as well as the amazing view from my room. Characterful rooms with nice tiles in bathroom etc. Lots of different items brought to the breakfast table!

Lynette, United Kingdom

Its a beautiful property - staff was polite and helpful, good breakfast! Good value for money!

Garima, India

After we had to find and walk up to the riad (because cars are not aloud in the Medina) we received an upgrade from Superior Room with Sea View to a Mini Suite with Sea View. Staff was really really nice and in the restaurant (at top floor with amazing view) the waiter was very helpful. We had a breathtaking view over the sea and from the terrace at the top floor we had an amazing view over the Medina. Room was like we where sleeping in a castle-tower room. :)

great place! you get the view they promise!!! big windows with the ocean right in front of you... super friendly staff & the cleaning personnel paid a lot of attention to detail when making up the room! really beautiful facilities (incl. the bathroom).

Stefan, Switzerland

This hotel is located in the medina, the Old city. A traffic Free zone, only accesible by foto. The luggage is brought to the hotel from the parking area by porter . The hotel is transformed from an old flourmill into a beautiful hotel. The view from some of the rooms are stunning. The Ocean breaks against the wall of the Medina. It is a little hard to find, but that makes it more exciting. The medina is a maze of small streets and allies. Very safe and friendly people everywhere.

Peter, Indonesia

We chose this hotel because of the sea views. When we opened the room door for the first time, I was blown away – huge panoramic windows revealed the most amazing seascape we've ever seen! It was so amazing to lie in bed and to watch and listen to the crashing waves. We kept the windows open at night so we could hear the roar of the ocean – it was wild out there! If you want to stay in Riad Mimouna, do pay for a room with a sea view... and upgrade if you can afford to. It is worth every penny!

Karen, United Kingdom

This was my second stay. I returned with my family who were visiting Essaouira for the first time. We had a fantastic stay. The hotel upgraded us all to suite rooms with panoramic windows which made the location - right on the ramparts with the see lapping below - even more special. It is just an amazing location. The staff are so friendly and helpful. My family particularly loved the breakfast.

Wendy, United Kingdom

Excellent Riad staff, central location,sea views. The friendliness of the locals,cheap prices of goods and food fabulous sandy coast, good for surfing and walking.

Colin, United Kingdom

We were upgraded to a suite and it was very spacious, with ceiling high windows that provided a marvelous view of the shore. Hotel is conveniently located to Medina and beach. Breakfast included pastry, pancakes, eggs, yogurt, juice, and hot drinks.

눉A couple of suggestions; Perhaps offer fresh fruit at breakfast in a salad as there is much delicious fruit in the market. The shower could have been improved in terms of getting the heat balance and the strength of flow.
눇Staff were most helpful. They really looked after us. The breakfast was very filling. The sea view from our room was stunning. The roof terrace is superb. The location is good for access to the Medina.

- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Room with Sea View
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉A little more variety in the breakfast might have been nice.
눇We had a sea view room and cancelled the rest of our trip in Morocco to avoid the oppressive inland June heat and instead enjoy the delightful weather, soft breezes and crashing Atlantic waves on the rocky reefs below our balcony for five wonderful days and nights. 24/7 guarded public parking for 40 MAD/day is easy near the main plaza at the end of the main drag Mohammed V, and it's a short 7-8 min walk North to the riad from there, up the main shopping street, then left toward the seawall a few blocks. You won't need a 'guide' or a porter if you have wheeled luggage and a city map/guide. I can't imagine a better location. The riad is right at the seawall in a pedestrian-only area, so no obnoxious noises to contend with. Breakfast is typical 'continental' with orange juice, hard-boiled egg, coffee, toast and croissants, served on the fourth floor atrium with ocean views and sliding glass doors for fresh air if desired. There's also a split-level rooftop terrace for viewing the sea and town adjacent to the dining room. We didn't try the restaurant for dinner, instead preferring to hang out at Taros rooftop bar and restaurant on the main square, one of many such options. BTW there's a large well-stocked Carrefour supermarket near the Afriquia petrol station on the highway into town!

눉The breakfast pastries were not great as they werent traditional Moroccan bread and sometimes weren't fresh. It's the same breakfast everyday which is ok, but I prefer a bit of variety. That said, the coffee, mint tea, bottled water and freshly squeezed orange juice everyday was refreshing and we found ourselves simply having a smallish breakfast and eating a bigger lunch at one of the many delicious restaurants nearby (I highly recommend Triskala which is super close, Pattisserie Driss also close, and TripAdvisor is pretty on the ball with other recommendations in the cheap eats category).
눇Beautiful views - just like in the photos. It is in a tucked away location in the Medina, which itself is very pretty. The upstairs outdoor terrace actually is too windy to enjoy however the closed breakfast terrace with floor to ceiling glass windows is just as impressive and comfortable if you want to enjoy the views indoors.

눉Cars are not allowed in the Medina (city center) itself so you have to park your car outside of the city center. But this can be easily done for about 4 euros for one night at the parking at south side of the Medina (Google Maps: 31.510553, -9.771872). So no downsides for this Riad! Thank you very much! :)
눇After we had to find and walk up to the riad (because cars are not aloud in the Medina) we received an upgrade from Superior Room with Sea View to a Mini Suite with Sea View.

눉To be honest, our room was so amazing that we didn't really spend much time in the rest of the hotel, apart from eating breakfast on the top floor, which has the same stupendous views of the sea. The breakfast wasn't the best I've ever had, but perfectly OK.
