Great place in the Medina

A lovely character place to stay in the Medina. Paid the extra for breakfast and it was well worth it. Can't fault it other than one thing. It lists, on site parking but the hotel is in the Medina, pedestrian only so need to pay and park outside of there. It wasn't a problem once I'd found that out myself.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is the absolute worst place I’ve ever been at! No one was resent to greet us upon our arrival and we waited over half an hour to be let in. Once we finally got there, the Riad owner simply refused to honor our reservation!! We reserved the panoramic room through Expedia for a fantastic price which the Riad owner simply denied us, offering a single room with no window instead while claiming that the panoramic room is far more expensive. It’s outrageous - he simply refused even after taking our cash - and started arguing!! Eventually we had no option but to leave and find another place! Thankfully Expedia was able to help us in finding another place and obtaining a refund after such an awful experience!! BEWARE AND DO NOT RESERVE HERE!!! AWFUL, AWFUL, AND AWFUL EVEN MORE!

Needs a real good deep clean

A mixed review. We had to book two rooms as we are engaged but not married. We paid for two, but only used one. Apparently their culture and Norms. No mention of this on hotels.com website. The hotel is in real need of a good deep clean and an update. It was filthy. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. The price was good and the breakfast was very good and is included in the rate. Be careful of the extra euro 2.50 city per person per room! Also the exchange rate the hotel gives when calculating your Expedia rate for euro to dirhams needs to be watched as you lose about 2 MAD per Euro. You do not get the option to pay in euro or on card. The hotel is also very noisy when other guests come in. There is no control on noise. Overall ok for the money bar the cleanliness.

Great location, good for 2-3 days

Le riad est très bien situé, en plein coeur de la médina! La chambre était relativement propre, je considère que la salle de bain pourrait nécessité d’un plus grand nettoyage. Le point le plus négatif : l’eau s’accumule dans la douche ce qui crée un lac à nos pieds, un peu dégoutant, le drain semble bloqué! Cependant, très bon service et petit-déjeuner satisfaisant.

Das Dar Zaina ist ein wirklich hübsches Riad in der Medina von Essaouira. Das gesamte Haus ist sehr sauber, die Zimmer individuell und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Betreiber sind in jeder Hinsicht bemüht, den Aufenthalt der Gäste so angenehm wie möglich zu gestalten. Sogar frische Blumen stehen in den Zimmern! Das Frühstück ist reichlich und lecker.
