This was the best hotel we booked in Morocco! We were welcome with an extraordinary suite since it was my husband’s birthday. The aesthetic of the hotel is simply a vibe. The rooftop restaurant had an impeccable service and we indulged in the best food we tried in Essaouira! The bed and shower were just the best!! We will be back! Everyone was so nice and professional. Merci encore!

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.

What Guests Said About Essaouira:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.0

Beautiful seaside town. Vibrant, colourful medina.

Beautiful seaside town. Vibrant, colourful medina. Friendly locals. Excellent range of food options. Affordable & delicious. "Pumpkin" has the best bread & cakes, also "Patachou" French bakery. Local places, "Chama Resto" & newly opened "Saucer" great value. Lots of "live" music events & art. Dar Souiri, the main cultural hub, is excellent. Arrive prepared to discover why they call it The Windy City! The only downside is the rubbish. People throw stuff everywhere, in the streets, on the beach. Not enough large bins & they don't empty the existing ones often enough. Shame that litter spoils an otherwise gorgeous place.

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 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 were very happy with the hotel and staff. Location is perfect. Hotel is recommended by Lonely Planet. Morning prayers and music from the square can be an issue for some guests but the windows are good. Our child left a mobile phone in the library and it was handed back to us on the reception. Hotel feels safe and clean, decor is really nice. We have asked for 2 rooms next to each other as travelled with 3 kids and it was done without a problem.

All of the staff here are amazing, so friendly and helpful, nothing is ever too much, and they always appear happy to help. I'd like to mention Isham in particular, we've stayed twice and both times he's been friendly and welcoming, and it's been nice getting to know him and about his family. The rooms are very nice and clean, and the hotel is beautiful and located in the best part of the Medina from our perspective.
