Pros: The apartment was very nice, spacious with nice outside balcony areas but it isn't in a very nice location. Have to walk down a dark alley to get there and climb up steep stairs. If I went back I would stay in the actual riad Chem Bleu as that looked lovely, we went there for breakfast. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Pros: The riad is located within the Médina and easy to find with the instructions sent and signs. It was very clean and serves a good breakfast every morning with eggs, breads, jams, fruit, juice and hot beverage. The best thing is the views you get from the breakfast terrace or balcony from our room since it is on the edge of the Médina facing the ocean. The staff is wonderful and helpful and there is usually someone on site. Communication was always prompt in the booking process. I would recommend this riad to stay in Essaouira.

Pros: The staff at Villa Quieta (and of most of Morocco) were incredibly friendly and helpful! I stayed for one night with a friend. They upgraded our room to a sea-view. The hotel is right along the beach (one block away), and by a couple of restaurants that had live music. Only a 20 minute walk into the medina which along the way has a ton of other restaurants with sea-view. The facilities are beautiful with hand carved ceramic walls/ceilings. The breakfast was delicious and included in the price of our hotel room! We asked the hotel for advice on a private driver we needed for a 9 hour car ride. They were able to provide a service that was much cheaper than what we found on our own. Overall, we had an amazing time and wish we had more time in Essaouira. 10/10 would recommend.

Pros: The staff, Besma and all the waiting staff were incredible. Very kind when one of our party was ill. We had an amazing room the size of an apartment with its own terrace which was beautifully shaded with a fantastic view of the sunset and beach. Our other soon looked down on the traditional pool which was wonderfully tiled in Moroccan style. A stunning building in all with so many curios and details and 2 min walk from the beach for those into kite surfing. We loved it!

10.0
Pros: The building was beautiful. the room was large, so was the on-suite. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, both during my stay and beforehand in organising a transfer from Marrakech. The location was very good. 15 minute walk along the beach or corniche to the Médina. Excellent for an early morning run which was important to me. I could go on and on !!! I haven’t event talked about the swimming pool and the breakfast, basically, I travel a lot and this is one of the best places I’ve ever stayed.
Excellent
9.6
Pros: The hotel was beautifully grand and spotlessly clean. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. It was a nice (if windy) 15 minute walk to the medina along the front, but there were also some nice beach bars just over the road. Our children appreciated the peace of being outside the medina and loved the pool and garden area. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Pros: The hotel is beautiful and very quiet and peaceful. The bedrooms are bright, comfortable and spacious and all 3 of ours had sea views. There are plenty of lovely areas apart from the pool, both inside and out to relax in. The staff team were friendly and helpful-nothing too much trouble for them. The location is very good, a couple of minutes walk to the beautiful sandy beach. . There are several beachfront restaurants nearby. The pleasant 20 minute seafront walk to the medina can also be taken cheaply and easily by taxi. We loved Essouria!

Pros: Excellent, friendly welcome to a fine, small, boutique hotel by new owner Adeline - nothing was too much trouble. Hotel very central, so better than two other hotels I have stayed in in Essaouira before and extremely good value indeed. Copious, varied breakfast - open to suggestions/ requests. Own keys so free to come and go. Could not fault the hotel or any aspect of its running at all and I shall certainly come agazin whenever I come here again, and, as it is a favopurite spot, that may be in a couple of months. Highly recommended. Thanks to Booking.com for finding it for me.

Pros: Clean, nice rooms
Cons: Was not greeted on arrival by mateo who was fully aware that we had just arrived, however he felt that a white Person behind us in the queue was more important than us. We did however not take it to heart but in the morning we requested a coffee and was told that they would bring it to our room. This simply did not happen and they acted like we were invisible. Overall we were made to feel totally unwelcome. We were again ignored by mateo when checking out. The Moroccan guy working there was polite. Mateo is the owner and host but felt that other people were more first class citizens and we were just second class. It’s a shame because when people are travelling they go to enjoy themselves and not be surrounded by such negative energy. Will not stay here again!

The breakfast is enjoyable, especially in the terrace weather permitting. The room was large and clean, and the overall design of the Riad is beautiful. One of the many advantages of the Riad is its location. On a walking distance from the ONCF station, and overall very close

Pros: Our trip here was wonderful. It felt so personal and friendly, as it's a boutique hotel you really felt cared for. The room was huge and beautiful (we had a suite) just could of done with a few paint touch ups here and there. We had two treatments and each was fabulous, I would recommend the full body (and I mean full body, face, hands and feet included) casa Lila massage which was so relaxing!!! Breakfast was served on the terrace and was delightful and that sums up our experience really. We also had dinner one night and the chicken tagine was amazing! Best food in Essaouira by far. The meal was only €15 each for three courses and was delicious with good service. I couldn't recommend a stay here enough, you won't regret it!

Cons: Walls were a little thin to the house next door, and there is quite a bit of wind noise (Essaouira is VERY windy). Also having to deal with the 'Medina' smell in the bathroom (leave the plugs in at ALL times!) was a bit of a nuisance at first, but we got used to it. It is a 1000 year old city after all...

Cons: They charged us twice... they said: you have to pay your stay cash not via booking and we did. Now after the vacation booking.com charged us again and suddenly they didn’t remember. Disgusting.

Pros: Riad Mimouna were professional from the very beginning. They had organised a transfer from our hotel in Marrakech to Essaouira, where we met one of their staff with a wheel barrow to take our stuff through the streets (cars can only go so far into the medina). The reception are was absolutely stunning and I took my time to truly appreciate the furnishing and architecture of it. We were greeted with mint tea which was a lovely touch. The room itself (we had a superior room facing the sea) was on the smaller side but what a view! It was well furnished and the safe was a good size, and easy to use. Room was cleaned everyday. It was lovely and quiet too - the windows were good at silencing the sounds of crashing waves. Breakfast was typically Moroccan - pancakes, cake, egg, coffee etc. The location of this riad was very good - everything was within a 10 minute walk including souks, main parts, atm, port etc. Fantastic stay!

Cons: The only thing about this hotel was that the TV in our room had a broken line on the screen. Although, this was a trivial issue, as we were there to explore Essaouira rather than watch TV! The shower could not be on a high pressure as this led to the bathroom being flooded.

Pros: Great views and good breakfast
Cons: Very humid rooms as next to the sea. Hot cold water issues in room 103. Location slightly out the way so very quiet streets at night.

Pros: I took a long time choosing a place to stay in Essaouira, between beach or Medina, luxury or traditional. This was the perfect choice. Palazzo Desdemona is both stylish and comfortable, spacious yet intimate. I was traveling with my 15yr old son; we wanted our own space, whilst still being able to chat if we wanted. Rm 11 meant we had a floor each. The staff were welcoming and warm, the location perfect.

Pros: I took a long time choosing a place to stay in Essaouira, between beach or Medina, luxury or traditional. This was the perfect choice. Palazzo Desdemona is both stylish and comfortable, spacious yet intimate. I was traveling with my 15yr old son; we wanted our own space, whilst still being able to chat if we wanted. Rm 11 meant we had a floor each. The staff were welcoming and warm, the location perfect.
Cons: Yes the pillows and towels could have been more fluffy but the rest was all so spacious, clean, stylish and comfortable, the less than perfect towels made for a more beachcomber vibe.
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Location and staff
Cons: The door from the bathroom dis not close from the room
7.1 Good
Pros: Positive points: the building is stately, quite beautiful. THE SITUATION IS VERY GOOD, at the entrance to the medina. The room, suite with two rooms, pretty cool, the comfortable bed and the bathroom well achieved and cozy the breakfast very well served and plentiful. The reception staff is very polite.
Cons: Bad points: the breakfast did not start at the time because the staff had not arrived. some walls of the room were unoccupied, the paint was falling, the bathroom door does not close and in general the doors, although beautiful do not serve to close properly. A little bit expensive.
6.3 Good
Pros: Location was great - 5 minute walk from Supratours Bus Station and right next to the main promenade & Médina. The price included breakfast which was relatively good.
Cons: On first glance our suite was pleasant enough but upon closer inspection, there were certain aspects that didn’t sit well with me. Our bed had a white canopy draped over it which looked lovely, but once we were in bed we noticed a lot of unusual stains both on the top and sides of the fabric. There was no shower curtain over the bathtub which I usually wouldn’t have minded but it was near enough impossible to shower without drenching the floor with water. In the evening when we closed the balcony doors we noticed a lingering smell of urine around the suite which obviously isn’t great. The cherry on the cake though was waking up to a cockroach in the bathroom the morning after which prompted a quick checkout. Essaouira was great but unfortunately I’ll be staying elsewhere if we come back.

Pros: The riad is located in the most perfect place which allows great views over the ramparts down towards the harbour and back over the town, located in a back street which, at any time of the day, allows it to be a quiet haven of its own. When you enter into the Riad the building surrounds you with calm cool tranquillity and fresh fragrances from the spa fill the foyer with an exotic heady scent, I was blown away, a beautiful riad with super clean rooms with crisp white cotton sheets and duvets, and beautiful ensuites, the breakfast is served on a beautiful terrace, either outside or in a cool glass veranda , The friendliness of the staff and warmness with which we were greeted was absolutely fantastic and charming, I would not hesitate to stay here again and cannot recommend this tranquil oasis enough.

Cons: Unfortuately Builders where on the adajacent hotel rooftop when we were sunbathing. And more of a nuisance work was being carried out in our Riad above the room for most of a day, fortunately it was at the end of our stay and in fairness may have been maintenance work as it was fairly early in the season

Pros: The Riad is excellently located right within the Medina, and easy to find (once you have initially found it!). It feels perfectly safe, any time of the day, so it's a great option for solo travellers, families and friends. The Riad itself is beautiful, with an amazing central courtyard where breakfast is found (which is an amazing breakfast, with plenty of options for all dietary requirements). The room we had was spacious and clean, with tasteful decor. We were fortunate to have outwards windows, which gave the room a light and breezy feel. We also made use of the roof top, which is a great spot to chill out. I loved Essaouira, it was a welcome break from Marrakech! I felt much more at ease there, no need for bartering, no hassle or unwanted attention, cooler weather and a lovely beach and town to explore - it's a place I will revisit.

Pros: nothing, the hotel is very bad, and the services not good as they described on the web.
Cons: services were so bad, I do not know what is the exact problem, the cashier charged more than 1000 DHS extra payment from my bank card without any explanation and excuse after I found it and ask him for recalculating the payment. the second problem, we booked 3 rooms with pool view and paid the charges, but the hotel provided us with 3 rooms with garden view.

Pros: Good buffet breakfast spread, comfortable bed. The pool is large and has nice sun loungers and beds to relax on.
Cons: Because of the high winds in the summer, it is very difficult to sit and enjoy being by the pool, which is why we chose this hotel, and then it is located quite far from anything going on in the town and restaurants. If travelling in July and August, I would recommend staying in Essaouira town instead in a riad. The level of service was not five star, as the rating suggests - staff were pleasant but not particularly accommodating, and our room keys lost their charge every day which was very annoying as we kept being locked out of our room.

Cons: Dear Hotel Director :
While having my Lunch before my departure on 25/04/2018, I came down to reception and I told them that I would ordered my lunch at the bar, went to room grab my stuff which all was ready and come down to check out. As soon as I set down at a table at the bar a female who checked me out later called the bar to make sure i am at the bar and probably she thought I lied to her ( what an irresponsible disgusting business behavior of hers, shame on her, she made me and other things to never come back to Atlas and i will try Sofitel next time). I heard the female bartender telling her out loud and i quote her: “yes he is here and he requested lunch”. I stood up and told the bartender a man that I will leave to check out and come back to eat while my food is being prepared. I checked out immediately in 5 Mins and came back to the bar. While I was at my table I hear all kinds of rumors, mocking and loud noises from the piano area every now and then, complete disturbance of my lunch by the Le Seven manager and the bar staff. I ate so fast just to leave that bar. I demanded my check from a server who seemed just got in to the bar and he was quick to bring my check and i signed it with my credit card and i put cash tip on the table and left running away from a savage bar environment (sorry that was the feeling that bar gave me by its staff and manager).
I am not going to tolerate this and i will not recommencer your hotel if asked only, because of the horrific experience I had at your hotel .
It was not the first time I came to your hotel and I had good impression before I came this time. The facts I indicated above made a complete disappointment from some of your staff not all. As we say you have not only one bad apple there but couple.
Thank you for your time,
A.B

Pros: I liked the feeling of "Team Spirit" which was present. Everyone chipped in to make dinner marvelous.
Cons: I didn't like the service. There was a lot of tension and hostility surrounding money coming from Trent, the Hostel manager. Yes, of course, diligence is necessary surrounding money and compensation for things like breakfast, coffee, tea, etc... so I do understand why he was high strung. I feel like Trent spend too much time chasing people down for money and not enough time tending to guests. Maybe this was a result of being a tad understaffed? Maybe Trent's a money hungry Riad monger, but that's likely not the case. I truly believe the issue boils down to a question of administration that requires diligent care and attention. Because nobody should feel like they're on a business trip when they're really on vacation. The money issue created a very business/professional environment that had me wondering why I even came on vacation in the first place.
5.4 Okay
Pros: Perfect localization - in the city center. The rooftop was nice. We really like the volunteer - maroccan girl and some advices of manager.
Cons: Most of places were dirty and sticky (f.e. cancer sticks, bottle tops and poops in the shower). The smell next to our room was bad. Bed linen, dishes and cutlery looked dirty. The manager all the time try to convice us to buy more expensive brunch instead of breakfast. It was so annoying and intrusive. Once when we wanted to buy breakfast he said that on Sundays he doesn't prepare it but finally he made it because maybe he realised that it is not ok. They didn't give us a key to the room, moreover the main gate was most od the time open - the hostel is unsafe.

Pros:
Cons: "The hostel could be cool place to hang out, It has a cool terrace and kitchen/movie/chill out area but... It's filthy! The showers have a disgusting smell, the toilets don't get cleaned, the sheets don't get changed, the hang out area is constantly dirty. The shower has no light. There are no keys to the rooms, I lost 100€. The manager told me a few times I should lock my things and because I didn't have a lock he offered to take care of it. I never lost anything in any dorm before and thought I'll be fine even though he mentioned it a few times that things might get stolen. And If the management would take care of cleanliness as much as asking to pay the room and breakfast, it could be a good place. It always seemed like there was no money available to prepare breakfast if I don't pay right before. The management is not managing well but takes good care of the guests, probably because it's more fun, for me at some point it was too much."
2.9 Mediocre
Pros: Location is okay, but tucked away from the lively areas.
Cons: My mattress had a lumpy spot in it so when I laid down I just fell to one side. The bathrooms are horrible. I tried 3 showers and only one of them worked and had a door that would close. The worst part was the laundry. I asked about their service and the receptionist said the older woman who works there will wash a small bag of clothes for 50-60 dirham. I said okay, I will pay her 50 dirham because I need some clean clothes and they accepted. When I looked led up my clothes, they charged me more. The clothes they returned to me were also still wet, meaning they will smell bad in my backpack and I will have to just wash them again- all because this older lady was sitting around laughing and talking with the other workers all night, rather than getting the laundry done early so it could dry by morning, as she promised. Because of this, I think you get what you pay for with the bed in this hostel— but you get MUCH LESS than you pay for when you do laundry here.
