Rue Amira Lalla Meryem, Essaouira 44000, Morocco
We have been twice now. It is a small hotel with a warm welcome and personal touch. On honeymoon, the upstairs restaurant served us a wonderful sunset, seafood meal. When we returned with our 1 yr old daughter, the kitchen cooked he dinner early, before they actually opened. We swam in the pool with the turtles and enjoyed the early evening tapas. It is an easy walk from the hotel into town and the hosts are happy to help organise transport.
Just off the main beachfront road in Essaouira to enjoy a slightly more calm setting ... but still having the beach within a 5 minutes walk. Although the hotel adheres to the classic Moroccan style, being of a more recent build you can expect very generous spaces and fittings that work. The owners have a great sense of hospitality and we were really nicely welcomed. Add the excellency of their restaurant ... and the use of a real large swimming pool ... what more do you want?
Homely and cosy feeling with lots of indoor plants making the place look lively. Not forgetting to mention that the food served in the restaurant is great too. If i come that way again I'll make sure to stay there.
READ BEFORE BOOKING I spent 10 days in Morocco, moving to various riads and also coming to this. I must say that at first glance among the many who disappointed me at first sight this gave me a good impression..but it disappointed me later. the structure is beautiful and offers the possibility to park a private car without having to pay. offers a terrace where you can relax and a large swimming pool for sunbathing (given the strong wind currents). the cordiality is not lacking but it is intolerable to enter the room and find the smell of permanent bleach (and given the strong currents it is impossible to stay with the open window), at breakfast I took a glass of water and lemon from the self-service that was going to be fatal to me, there was BLEACH inside (the carafe was probably not washed properly) which irritated my whole throat because I drank it in small dose preventing me from eating until evening. another negative point the HOT water: it is not clear why but they do not monitor the room management as they detach the boilers and it is possible to have a cold shower as it happened to me (and not having the rooms the telephone of service in equipment can t be repaired in real time) READ BEFORE BOOKING
Great place to stay. Nice people and really good food! Rooms are perfect.
