I spent two wonderful days in this hotel with my mum and even booked two extra nights because we liked it so much. As soon as we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and immediately spoilt with tea and biscuits. The hospitality was simply fantastic! We are incredibly grateful for that! The hotel itself was a real dream - beautifully decorated, with spacious rooms and a breakfast that was fresh and delicious every morning. Also the rooftop with a small pool was lovely! It is possible to have breakfast there. Wow Overall an unforgettable experience that we would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you so much for everything!

A pleasant, comfortable stay and in my opinion the city is one of the best I have seen of many cities so far in Morocco. Nothing to fault about the hotel itself, the receptionists and the waiter who served breakfast (which was delicious to have) were welcoming and pleasant. The only thing that I personally found to be (slightly) disturbing was the "clock tower year 1912" which rang out of sync with the times at all times of the day. Thank you Essaouira and I will see you soon!

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.

    At Cultural Morocco Tours, we highly recommend including Essaouira in your Moroccan journey. This charming coastal city, known as the “Pearl of the Atlantic,” offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and relaxation. Visitors can wander through its UNESCO-listed medina with whitewashed houses and blue shutters, explore the lively souks and artisan workshops, and enjoy the fresh Atlantic breeze along the city’s beautiful beach. Essaouira is also famous for its delicious seafood, vibrant music scene, and warm, laid-back atmosphere. Whether for a day trip or a few relaxing nights, Essaouira is an unforgettable stop that captures the essence of Morocco’s coastal charm. Cultural Morocco Tours

    The staff were extremely friendly and helpful especially Khadija and Safaa. The breakfast was copious. Free car parking opposite the hotel - was quite full in December so may be overfull in high season. Hot water for the shower, which was welcome after some other places I've stayed. Water pressure on the third floor not the best but ok. WiFi on the third floor a bit patchy. Quiet location away from the centre but easy walking distance to the beach and Medina. I had some washing, which was done the same day at no charge.

Friendly & helpful staff who kept in contact and were available to assist us with directions and housekeeping. Breakfast is served at the sister hotel, which is a 10-15 minute walk away and served on the sunny roof terrace.

    Lovely hotel within very short walk of the medina port and the beach. Staff very happy and helpful. Lovely small pool in the garden with ample number of sunbeds if you don’t fancy the beach. No air con in the rooms but with the steady breeze from the sea front not necessary. Our room had sea view which was lovely.
