Riad Babette is located within the walls of the old city of Essaouira. The owner and his family have beautifully decorated the riad with tasteful touches and beautiful photography throughout. Even though we arrived late in the evening, the owner was willing to prepare a delicious dinner for us. We were warmly welcomed. Our room was beautiful and well appointed. The air conditioning was welcome as it was a bit humid. Wifi worked well in all spaces. Breakfast was delicious. The owner, Mohammed, was very attentive and catered to our every need. For example, we were interested in purchasing some of the traditional inlaid wood trays that Essaouira is famous for. He took us to a shop with pieces of very high quality where we were able to purchase exactly what we wanted in a low pressure environment.

One of my favorite Riad stays in Morocco! The location is perfect - very central, with everything reachable within about 10 minutes.

A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
