Lovely riad in the Essaouira medina
This hotel is very charming and cute, has a great location, and the staff, Hafid and Hakima, were extremely helpful and welcoming from when I arrived to when I left. I had one of the smaller rooms, the Corail, but it was still quite comfortable, clean, had a good shower and a nice view. For a small extra price you can have breakfast in the courtyard. Overall everything was excellent and I highly recommend it.

Beautiful, calming B&B with delicious breakfast and amazing courtyard. Bedrooms were clean and comfortable and relatively spacious. Location was ideal, inside the medina but easy to find and close to shops and restaurants. The managers, Hekima and Hafid, were Not only very knowledgeable but an absolute joy.

Central to the medina
The owners were very helpful and it is very central to the medina. The breakfasts were lovely. However the room was cramped and the bathroom was actually in the room, so you could hear everything. A nice place but I would be very careful about which room you book

An oasis - but you have to get to it!
Friendly hosts and full of character. But it is a basic B&B in part of a very old market area and as soon as you walk out the confines it hits you! People buying and selling and invariably crowds of people often in narrow dimly lit streets. An experience yes. But you probably would not want to stay too long even with the oasis of your lodgings to escape to!
