Riad very well placed. A bit dark and damp. The bathroom is very basic. Very welcoming staff.

It would take so little to make this place a gem! We spent 2 nights here. The common rooms are beautiful and charming and this is a very historic riad. Unfortunately, the pictures of the rooms online are not at all what you get. They are dirty (there were foot imprints on a half-wall in our room) and smell moldy. The curtains are falling apart and shouldn’t be moved or else they will fall off. While I know the hotel will likely respond to this post that they appreciate my review and are sorry about the experience of the rooms, I wish instead they would increase their prices just slightly and give the rooms new paint, curtains and furniture - it would go such a long way and turn around all of these bad reviews they are getting!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The room was spacious, decorated beautifully and there was a vase of fresh roses on the table in our sitting area, in fact there were fresh roses throughout the riad. It was quiet and peaceful and we had a good sleep. It was one of the best riads we stayed in throughout Morocco.

Lovely staff and great location unfortunately the room is reminiscent of the backpackers hostels I stayed in 30+ years ago especially for the price. The room was big but dingy and not too clean ant the awful music from the Venus bar next door was too load and intrusive until after 11 at night.

It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Situated right in the heart of Essaouira, the rooms were outstanding, breakfast was top notch, and the hotel itself is just so beautiful from the very top to the very bottom.

We have just returned from a week here. Hotel was very clean, our room was more of a suite than a room as it included 2 sofas, two armchairs and 2coffee tables. Bed was very comfortable and the bed linen and towels were changed every day. The breakfast was excellent consisting of: Always a mini baguette, local yogurt, jam, honey, orange juice, m’smen, fruit and hot beverage of choice. Then variably a brioche, a couscous cake or pancake with either boiled egg or cheese. It was very filling and the staff were always very helpful. The proprietors were friendly and helpful from advising on local areas of interest to arranging our taxi back to the airport. We are looking forward to returning and have already recommended it to friends and family.

The riad is very nice. Antique I would say, beautiful architecture, beautiful furniture. The rooms are good and comfortable. Breakfast is great. It has a good location as Essaouira is very easy to move and walk.

What a gorgeous hotel! The public spaces and sun roof are absolutely exquisit, and so are most rooms. My own room was simple, but came at no single occupancy surcharge and had fast reliable wifi at all times. Upstairs rooms will have been quieter but I was told that WiFi is patchy. The whole space was spotless with plumbing in good working order, although my bathroom was tiny and they need to make it clear to guests that this is not drinking water. Breakfast was plated rather than buffet and not for me, but after I spoke to the manager I got less of some things and more of others. Location is in the middle of the medina, with lots of shops and food options nearby. I got lost in the medina on days 1 and 2, so I definitely recommend remembering landmarks! Highly recommend this place - would have been 6 stars without breakfast :-)
