Hotel berhampiran Old Medina di Essaouira

فندق جيد واستقبال جميل من كل السطاف، تعامل راقي و اكل مغربي لذيذ جذا خصوصا الفطور البلدي كان لا يقاوم

Arrived Thursday 6th July and was given by Omar the choice of 2 rooms both seemed great to me but we chose room 6 that was very Moroccan with large windows looking into the unique centre of the property. Omar along with Mango and the other staff were so helpful always available whether at breakfast , to suggest a Hammam, directions to a restaurant or anything ! The Riad was located close to the city walls from where at sunset you get the most amazing views and it is very well located in the Medina to all the hustle and bustle and only 10 mins away from the outside gates and any taxis needed to travel elsewhere. We loved our stay and would most definitely come again and we loved Essaouira

Oh dear, where do I start with this review? This is my 3rd visit to this hotel. We new when we booked from our last visit that the hotel was tired but we were shocked when we arrived. We had requested single beds and our request was not satisfied, with the hotel saying no other rooms were available. They provided us with an extra bed on the 2nd day but it was squashed into our room so it did not feel like a 5* experience at all. The room was dirty and the decor very tired. There were ants nests in the room and silverfish. The hotel came and cleaned the room for us, but it made no difference to the insects at all. The housekeeping was a disgrace and it took us 3 days and 4 visits by staff for us to get cups and glasses in the room. The hotel corridors were grubby with scuffed and damaged walls, filthy windows and dust everywhere. Additionally, the main pool was closed for the foreseeable future and this was one of the main reasons we had booked the hotel. Another freshwater pool was available but this was not suitable for disabled people, which one of us is. After 3 days we were in tears and wanted to come home. I asked to speak to the manager, ho was never available. The reception staff were, on the whole, sympathetic and supportive but would not transfer us to another hotel. After lengthy discussions they moved us to a villa, which was amazing. We lost the first 3/4 days of our holiday miserably but the rest of it was amazing. The housekeeping, cleaning and attentiveness of the villa staff was excellent so I have no idea why the same can’t be applied to the hotel itself. There are so many wonderful things here - the views, the grounds, the restaurant food, which has a limited menu but we loved it. There are some issues - staff members removing the used cutlery from our empty plates then putting them back on the table for us to reuse; waiting ages for coffee at breakfast; No after available at dinner unless you pay for it; always having to ask for napkins and salt and pepper. All these things add up and can be annoying. Cockroaches in the restaurant ladies toilet - I have a phobia of them and nearly screamed the place down! We also had a bad experience at the bar - the service was poor and we gave up waiting for table service and we were overcharged for drinks. Querying the bill, we were surrounded by 6 men ho were all being aggressive and tried to force us to pay for cocktails we never received. This was extremely unpleasant as we are 2 females so I reluctantly signed the bill, which we paid on checkout as we were simply too exhausted by the problems to complain further. All ran smoothly until we checked out. Our taxi transfer to Marrakech airport didn’t arrive. I had been to reception twice in the previous days to ensure it was all booked for us and referred to the concierge. Despite this, the taxi still failed to arrive at all, with no assistance at all from either honing the Voyages Privee helpline or the hotel reception. Both sides just ke

Jann & Jo stayed in Riad Al Madina September. A wonderful, traditional Moroccan Riad that is welcoming, comfortable and has really lovely, helpful staff. Located within the Medina, the surrounding streets are charming and interesting, with so much to see and do all the time. There is a huge choice places to eat or get refreshments very close by, from where you can watch life in Essaouria. We were happy with our rooms, which were clean, comfortable and interesting. We enjoyed our breakfasts every day and had a couple of delicious evening meals there too; as well as sometimes enjoying a glass of wine while looking at the night sky from the open central courtyard. A big thanks to all the staff who we will never forget for being so friendly, helpful and efficient – a great team! A special thanks to two of the catering team, Zach and Yosef, who were so kind and caring during the hours following the earthquake. Highly recommend this Riad!

After reading some of the reviews before staying at this hotel I have to say I'm not surprised. I totally agree with the comments that this is not a true 5 star hotel at all. The positives are the location, the pool area and the rooms (to an extent). From one way its only a short walk to the medina and from the other it's a short walk to the beach bars. The pool area is well maintained and very attracting. The rooms are a good size with comfy bed and powerful shower and they are very clean. However, we started off by having to change rooms as the room we were first given had a chipped bath - all the paint had come up off the bottom of the bath so it was unusable, the staff solved this pretty quickly by offering us a room of the same standard one floor above. Nevertheless, I find it shocking that a 5 star hotel would not maintain their rooms in the first place. We found the cleaning staff and concierges very friendly. Some of the breakfast staff and beach staff, less so. One day we sat on the beach beds and felt looked down on and were not treated as well as some of the other guests. This really put us off and prevented us using this area again. Not sure if this is because we are a younger/mixed couple? Overall, the hotel is lacking in a lot of areas and the Accor group need to look into this. I would definitely visit Essaouira again but would probably rent an apartment since the beach and medina have so many options anyway!

Riad Emotion is an amazing spot to stay in Essaouira. The light hits this riad perfectly as the fresh air and sun of the wind city sweep you in. The entrance, rooms, and roof terrace could not be more peaceful. Right off of the medina but still close enough to the action. All said, we were lucky enough to travel to Morocco in May after getting the vaccine and while much was still on lockdown they welcomed arms. Cannot recommend Riad Emotion enough! Riad Emotion est un endroit incroyable pour séjourner à Essaouira. La lumière frappe parfaitement ce riad alors que l'air frais et le soleil de la ville du vent vous envahissent. L'entrée, les chambres et la terrasse sur le toit ne pourraient pas être plus paisibles. Juste à côté de la médina mais toujours assez proche de l'action. Tout compte fait, nous avons eu la chance de voyager au Maroc en mai après avoir reçu le vaccin et alors que beaucoup étaient encore bloqués, ils ont accueilli les armes. Je ne saurais trop recommander le Riad Emotion!

A home away from home. Friendly, clean, safe, and filled with character, we loved our stay at Riad Watier. So much so, that when our plans changed after the devastating earthquake in the Atlas Mountains, we simply returned to Ryad Watier for another stay in Essaouira. LOCATION - - The ryad is centrally located, close enough to the medina, shop stalls, restaurants, without being in the middle of it. A 5 minute walk to the beach. YOUR HOSTS - - Fatiha, Hyatt and Rashid were so welcoming, making us feel at home immediately, and filled with ideas and suggestions for excursions, sightseeing, shopping and where to eat. Nothing was too much effort, and everything was done with a genuine smile and warm Moroccan hospitality. Jean-Gabriel the owner, was a delight to meet, filled with interesting stories and good humour. All the cooking & housekeeping staff were so friendly and accommodating. ROOMS - - each room is different, charmingly decorated. Messaouda room was large, with a large bathroom, bright and cheerful, with a fireplace and the MOST comfortable bed. FACILITIES / MEALS - - Laundry, on-site hammam (WONDERFUL!), library, high speed internet, a rooftop terrace for sunsets/sunrises. DELICIOUS and full breakfast, served with a smile. I am sure we will return again to Riad Watier - see you soon, Fatiha (inch'allah!)
