It was in a great area and the locals showed us how to get to the Riad from Bab Marrakech (this is where to get dropped off in a taxi). The terrace was nice and they served a nice breakfast of juice + tea/coffee, bread, jams and pancakes. The staff were all nice too.

Excellent location in the center of the Médina & easy to find from Bab Marrakesh. Staff were very pleasant & there was daily room cleaning.

Colin

The room is spacious in a quiet and well decorated riad which is itself located in the heart of the Medina of Essaouira. Everything is walking distance from the riad. Hot shower is provided in the bathroom and the breakfast is served on the roof with a nice view above the town. Large and delicious breakfast. The staff is really nice

Stay in the Heart of Essaouira –

One of our best sellers in Essaouira! Boasting a superb view over the medina and located in the heart of Essaouira's historic center, this enchanting guest house is set around a luminous patio, which leads to a Moroccan living room.

Built around the communal patio the rooms feature characteristic Moroccan décor. They are also fully equipped with a private bathroom.

Close to the Souks (markets) and not far from the port and the beach, during your stay you can also enjoy a visit to the local ancient natural sites on foot, horseback or with a camel ride.

This is our guests' favorite part of Essaouira, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

“Pleasant riad, nice terrace.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 5 nights
My room faced onto the main thoroughfare and was rather noisy into the early hours (it's fair enough during the day). Also, there was a pharmacy across the road with a flashing light, which flashed all night. If you are noise- or light-sensitive, ask for a room that isn't at the front. The wifi was poor - weak and inconsistent
The riad is comfortable, clean and attractively decorated. The terrace is good and it's very pleasant having breakfast there.

We had a bit of a bad smell in the bathroom. But we are not aloud to complain. When the room is clean, the people are friendly and the price is perfect.
Staff is very friendly and the Riad is perfect located in the center of the Medina. The rooftop terras is beautiful, the breakfast is served here as well. The room is basic, but enough for a couple of nights. Specially for this price!

The wifi was a bit average. The lights in the rooms are a bit dark, especially if you get a windowless room.
Only a 5 min walk through the market from the main square. Breakfast was great, and the room were a good size. Staff were helpful, and helped us book an extra night when our bus didn’t arrive. Walking distance from everything. Definitely recommend!

The only slight issue was finding the place - it's hidden in the depth of the medina. Don't trust Google maps to guide you there - ask locals!
The receptionist was super friendly and pleasant, even though we arrived later than indicated. Room was small and simple but comfy, clean, no smell. breakfast is simple but delicious, full service on the stunning rooftop terrace.

The bathroom was full of water after every shower because there was no way to stop the water to spill out (no curtain or anything similar) Also, the location is right in the medina, so expect some noise at nights and early mornings.
The staff was very kind and it was otherwise a good place to stay.
