We had a fantastic stay! The place is very friendly, with brand-new facilities and located in a quiet area—perfect for relaxation. Mo and Anne made us feel at home with their warm, family-like approach. The highlight of our stay was the delicious chicken tajine, absolutely fantastic! Another great perk is that you can buy high-quality argan oil directly from local producers nearby. Mo was incredibly helpful in guiding us to the best products at great prices. Highly recommended!

FAQs about hotels in Essaouira

Morocco With a European Twist

Essaouira has developed from a hippie hangout to become a top Morocco beach resort with good surfing conditions. Its 18th-century medina is almost European in feel and narrow streets lead under low arches past fragrant spice stalls and local artisans selling everything from wood carvings to faience pottery.

Dotted around the souk are many traditional-style riads on Booking.com, hidden behind tiled façades and blue doors. Other Essaouira accommodation options include luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap apartments, and B&Bs near Essaouira Airport.

Also bright blue are the rowing boats bobbing gently in small harbours sheltered by the Scala of the Port, a wide walkway with ramparts through which several historic cannons poke out. At the end is the Citadel, a small fortress overlooking Mogador Island - the largest of the Iles Purpuraires, so-called for the purple shells found in their rocks that were once used to produce dyes for Roman senator togas.

Another fortress – Bordj El Berod – lies in pieces on the long, sandy beach south of the marina. In the opposite direction the coastline is more rocky and lined by the Scala of the Kasbah, the crenellated walls protecting the medina. Horseriding and camel safaris are available on the beach and you can also visit a Berber village inland.

We've travelled to essa many times and always enjoyed the holiday atmosphere. Good beaches and long level promenade. Great restaurants of all standards. Not easy to get to from north of England but worth the effort.

After loooong days travelling and driving through Morocco`s...

After loooong days travelling and driving through Morocco`s inland, no matter how incredible the journey was (the mountains were just breathtaking everywhere, just to mention one thing at least), arriving to the ocean with mild breeze (ok, sometimes a bit too strong, but that`s the point of centre for surfers and kiters, right?) felt unexpectedly refreshing and rewarding. We even decided to stay 3 nights instead of 2 because we simply didn`t want to rush back to Marrakesh bustle, heat and - let`s be frank - dirt. Essaouira gave us just the opposite and those three days were totally relaxed by the seaside. Its vibe is definitely something; indescribable and totally different from other cities in Morocco we could experience. Either it is a much calm and more friendly medina (compared to the Marrakech`s one ), diverse and lively fish market at the harbour or colourful and buzzing street music scene, or just the chill at any part of beach promenade. I could literally spend hours watching the tide there or kiters and surfers trying their best till passing out. I can also recommend a nice walk toward Palais Dar Sultan and to Jimi Hendrix` Cafe and restaurant. Would be happy to come back anytime - maybe for the kiting session finally (that I could not afford this time due to my sickness). ;-)

Essaouira is a lively, laid-back city with great seafood restaurants and a vibrant medina. The people are extremely friendly and welcoming. I'd definitely recommend a visit. Be sure to go to Dar Baba restaurant and visit the Jewish quarter with a very interesting and beautiful synagogue and museum.

Essaouira is a delight.

Essaouira is a delight. Full of beautiful surprises around the narrow streets of the old port. Fabulous white beaches, temping menus ,enjoyable food and friendly people. We plan to return later this year for the fourth time. Importantly for me, the warm dry climate works a miracle for my aches and pains while I am there .

We loved our stay exploring the heart of this dynamic seaside town. The core of the trip was exploring the heart of the city, with it's winding paths and vibrant energy. While a bit overwhelming at first, with a few days practice, it becomes easy! The people were kind and we shared many great meals and new memories. I realized in the first day that this wouldn't be a beach holiday, as it was too cool (mid-March) and way too windy most days. Essaouira was also a great antidote to the mania of Marrakesh, offering a more chill entry-point to the joys and magic of Morocco.

Everything! Sofitel has not one flaw. Yousra and Ines especially made our stay the most comfortable it possibly could be. They have been so helpful and really made Sofitel shine as much as it already does. Everything from the atmosphere, the ambience the design and the staff is 5 star quality. Me and my sister have fallen in love and will definitely be back it truly is the best place in Essaouira. Thankyou so much to all the staff, and personal thanks to Yousra and Ines.

Very good hotel for good price. Rooms are clean. Cosmetics and hairdryer in bathroom are available. Breakfast is very tasty and big (it's hard to eat all). Hotel is in good localisation - 15 minutes walking to main beach, in the evening is quiet. Best part of this place are girls working at the reception - very polite, still smiling and trying to help you every time. They told us a lot about the culture of Morocco and gave us a lot of tips. Greetings to them. I hope to come back there.

The hotel is located on a quiet street with easy street side parking. The ground floor interior is very impressive if you like the old-fashioned traditional "mausoleum"style. The old town itself is probably the best we visited, and we went to most of the major cities.
