We really enjoyed staying at this riad as the room was clean, very spacious and nicely decorated (flower petals on the bed, flowers on the table, all the basic necessities available). The staff is very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our breakfasts on the terrace which was really nice as you can see the ocean and sit in the sun... More

My boyfriend and I were nervous about booking hostels - never having done a gap year or traveled before. This hostel could not have converted us more! The place was clean and tidy, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the rooftop was delicious and very relax and Essaouria itself i would highly recommend. I would defiantly come... More

My husband and I stayed here for a few nights in September and just loved it. Throughout our stay nothing was too much trouble and we were always greeted with big smiles. We were met at the bus station to be shown the way, they called our Marrakech riad for us to organise a pick up, any information we needed,... More

I arrived at the Riad L'Etoile de Mogador at 10pm after arriving from Marrakech on the Supratours bus. I had emailed the Riad a few days before to let them know that I would be late and to ensure that there would be someone there to let me in. They replied to say this would be fine. Unfortunately when I... More

This place certainly exeeded our initial expectations. Located just inside the walled town, in easy walking distance of the bus station. Loads of character and charming, easy going members of staff. The guest rooms are arranged around a beautiful central atrium with communal lounge areas. Our room was quite long and deep with just one small window to the street,... More

Staff were lovely and friendly. Yummy fresh breakfast every morning! Great value for money in a good location. The room was very pretty and traditional, nice rose petals on the bed and cute finishing touches. The kitchen was good and fully equipped. Nice little lounge area to watch television and use wifi. Great outdoor and roof top patio with sun... More

Beautiful and spacious rooms, with beautiful bathrooms too. The best place I stayed in in Morroco. In the heart of the medina, very helpful staff, free internet access, nice roof terrace where you can have breakfast. Good value for the money. I think we paid something like 60€ per night for a room that could have 4 people in it!

This was a nice basic place to stay. The location was convenient and the building itself nice. Things seemed a bit more worn down than other places we stayed.

I think we only paid 37 euros for a double room with en-suite, but the hotel didn't disappoint. The room and bathroom were both spacious and though not decorated to my personal taste, they had paid attention to detail when they did it. There was supposed to be free internet access, but it wasn't working when we were there. Internet... More

This lovley riad was so easy to find in the medina from the bus stop, when we arrived we had to wait a minute till they made our room ready, on the roof, with a view on the ocean, wanderfull. The staff was as warm as the Moroccan sun! Very very sweet! Free Internet, spotless, comfortable and very affordable! I... More
