Featuring a shared lounge, a terrace as well as a restaurant, Suite Azur Hotel is located in the center of Essaouira, a 8-minute walk from Plage d'Essaouira.

This is a beautiful property in a great location—well-designed, tastefully decorated, and impeccably clean. However, the front desk service fell far short of the hotel’s overall quality. If the staff’s professionalism matched the investment put into the property, this could have been a top-tier stay. Unfortunately, the gentleman who checked us in was borderline rude, disengaged, and unhelpful throughout our visit. For a small, charming hotel where details truly matter, service should be a priority. A little more warmth and attentiveness from the front desk would make all the difference.

Providing pool views, Maison Kasba Bonheur & Bien etre Emma & Gilles in Essaouira features accommodations, pool with a view, a fitness center, an open-air bath, a garden, and a bar.

The owners are incredibly helpful and friendly - making this stay feel very special. The rooms are large with comfortable beds and walk in showers. The breakfast is delicious and filling as is the cooking overall at lunch and dinner should you opt for that. I chose to have a massage at the spa and this was also a wonderful experience. Overall, the property is beautiful and a 15 minute drive into the city. I would return in a heartbeat.

Located on the beachfront in Essaouira, this 5-star hotel features 2 swimming pools, a fitness center and a spa with hammam. It offers air-conditioned guest rooms and some have a balcony.

Beautiful room in an excellent location ! Beach across the road. All restaurants right there. Short walk to the Medina which was a nice sized relaxed Medina after all the medinas we’ve been to in the last two weeks. The girl at reception upgraded our room. WOW! After being on the road travelling Morocco for over two weeks and nearing the end of our trip, we went to our room and it was a suite with a beautiful view ! It was so nice to have all that space and be able to relax in our room with a nice view. Parking for our car right at the hotel

    The location, team, and cleanliness were all rated as exceptional, with a perfect score of 10/10. The hotel's warm and cozy atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. The team's familial treatment and exceptional service were greatly appreciated. I extend my sincere gratitude to the Tweets Hotel team for their outstanding hospitality.

    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. We will be seeing you again at sofitel! 🙏🙏❤️

    Moroccan style of property (please note it's not a luxurious 5 star hotel, it's simple apartments with shared kitchen, but have a great charm and atmosphere, so if you want to enhance your stay by adding Moroccan flavours to it, this property is for you). Amazing view from roof top, and very helpful and looking after staff - Naziha was amazing, although she wasn't speaking English, we used translator and she was trying very hard to make our stay comfortable and pleasant. Shukran Naziha! 😍
