Overall the property was lovely, if not a bit dated and needing some modernisation/upgrades. The pillows in the rooms were extremely lumpy and uncomfortable and should be replaced. The tv didn't work - and the wifi wasn't great. But it was fine. The team were amazing. They were so caring and genuine. They really made the stay special.

Historisches Ambiente

Tolles, sehr schönes Riad in historischem Ambiente. Sehr guter, freundlicher Service. Perfekte Lage. Gutes FrĂŒhstĂŒck. (Kleiner Minuspunkt ist die Dachterrasse, die offensichtlich nicht mehr genutzt wird und deshalb leider nicht so top gepflegt ist.) Zusammenfassend sehr empfehlenswert!

Séjour agreable

Séjour agréable. HÎtel de style post colonial trÚs bien situé calme et reposant. Personnel trÚs serviable et sympathique. Ils nous ont bien accueilli, conseillé et indiqué les meilleurs adresses du quartier. Néanmoins nous étions quelque peu déçus de ne pas trouver d'option traditionnelle au menu du petit déjeuner, un peu trop français à notre goût, nous qui étions venus découvrir Essaouira justement... Les chambres sont propres et spacieuses, mais nous avons été dérangés par le manque de luminosité dans la chambre, un peu trop sombre à notre goût ainsi que par la défaillance de la télé qui ne marchait pas du tout. Nous n'avons donc pas pu exploiter l'espace situé en mezzanine, à cause de cela, ce qui est bien dommage.

We had a great time at the hotel. It’s in a fantastic location just inside the MĂ©dina walls, across from a great cafe called l’Atelier and a short walk to the main beach. The staff were very welcoming and kind. The rooms were clean and comfortable. There was some mold in the shower in our room but otherwise more just general wear and teaR.
