Magnifique Riad au centre de la médina, belle déco, personnel serviable et sympathique. La chambre 104 est hors couverture wifi ( ou à l'extrême limite), c'est le seul soucis qu'on a eu. Préférez les étages supérieurs si vous êtes asthmatique ou sensibles à l'humidité

Because of the parking is offsite , be wary of bogus guides on the way to the hotel who harass you along the way, they try to collect a commission off of you.

Smelly and Noisy!

Despite being booked in for 3 nights I had to check out after 1 night. The entire place had a very strong odour of what is described as humid wood but actually smelt of vomit and a baby nappy! I spent most of my night sniffing a perfumes scarf to get through it. In addition, as their restaurant was in the courtyard with the rooms over looking it, it remained open and noisy till about 01.30. The windows and doors might as well be non existent as they didn’t provide any respite from the noise. Fortunately the staff at the reception were very understanding and did refund my money back and were apologetic however I would be very very cautious about booking in here unless you have a weak sense of smell and sleep deeply in any circumstances.

Fri udsigt til havet

Meget dejligt ophold på en fin Riad i et lidt roligere kvarter end mange andre i den lille,smukke by Essauria. Som navnet angiver beliggende ved fæstningsværket med Atlanterhavet på tre sider. Især spektakulært fra tagterasserne, hvor vi nød morgenmad og sol i god læ. Riaden har restaurant uden alkohol licens og et meget sympatisk personale. Er meget dejlig og vejbeliggenhed, men dog ikke luxury i Europæisk forstand.

Disgrace

Very disappointed overall. No access of cars, I had to carry my two cases by foot for 1k from the public parking, and again when I left. The price was over rated for this room. No iron in the hotel, no help with luggage, brakefast was very poor, the food looked not fresh.

Hôtel bien placé et vue splendide sur la mer en te

Après avoir initialement choisi l'hôtel atlas et spa 5 étoiles à essaouira, nous avons souhaité annuler la réservation une fois arrivé dans la chambre qui ne justifiait pas du tout le prix. Grâce à hôtels.com, nous avons trouvé ce joli riad de 27 chambres très bien placé dans la médina avec un accueil très chaleureux. En dehors de l'appel à la prière un peu long tôt le matin, c'était parfait et comme c'était en période creuse on a pu négocier un jaccuzi pour 2 au prix d'un et 1h00 au lieu de 30 min. Ils sont à l'écoute et très arrangeant. De plus la terrasse est formidable et offre une vue magnifique sur la mer. Petit déjeuner succulent et copieux. Bref je vous le conseille.

Buena ubicación pero pésimo mantenimiento

Nos hemos alojado mi familia y yo durante 2 noches en este hotel. He de destacar puntos positivos y negativos. Positivos: la ubicación del hotel en la medina y cerca de la playa, la terraza con unas vistas increíbles , el edificio y el personal muy amable. Los puntos negativos: el abandono de las instalaciones, la decoración de mal gusto, desayuno muy muy malo, ponen varias cosas pero la calidad es mala, hemos pedido zumo de naranja natural varias veces y lo que nos traen es zumo con mezcla y azúcar. Nosotros cogimos 3 habitaciones porque eramos 5 personas. Una de ellas era claustrofobica, otra daba a una pared de vistas y la última no estaba del todo mal. Recomiendo ver antes las habitaciones si es posible. Destaco la amabilidad del personal al cambiarnos una habitación al pedirla para estar todos juntos. Llegamos a essaouira con intención de quedarnos más tiempo pero por el hotel hemos decidido quedarnos solo los dos días que hemos reservado al principio. Nos ha sorprendido la no concordancia de las opiniones con lo que hemos visto en Internet.
