Stunning from the moment you walk in! The center area was open and colorful, the staff accommodating and friendly, breakfast was delicious, great views from the terrace, easy to find and great walkable location to the sites and coast!
Amy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfect for me as I wanted to relax, enjoy the art, fort & walk the waterfront and beach. I’m fit- so walking the 6 flights of stairs to beautiful rooftop breakfast/bar and chase lounge views was perfect Those with knee/stair issues won’t be so pleased but there is also beautiful bar, restaurant pool table on main floor.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff (especially the kitchen staff) were amazing. Never seen such service and politeness anywhere else and i been all around the world. Very relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. Rooftop dining with the ocean all around is an experience in itself. The only negatives are only 1 channel on tv.
muhammad, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel itself was very neat and clean and the staff was really nice. However I don't think this is a four star hotel as there weren't facilities which a four star room should have like a refrigerator and a electric water cooker. Also the breakfast was the same every day, it would have been nice if there were some variations. Lastly I wouldn't recommend coming to this hotel by car because parking is a bit hustle. As the hotel doesn't have its own parking spaces. Best is to take a taxi or the shuttle bus.

Wonderful Stay

This is a beautiful, well-maintained Riad. The service was excellent and the staff was very friendly and accomodating. We've stayed in a mini-suite and it was very comfortable. The Riad is in a perfect location close everything. We've especially enjoyed our breakfast every morning on the terrace with the view of the ocean. Highly recommend!

The property location just inside the city walls near the beach and port is perfect- with views from the rooftop terrace. The staff were excellent, helpful and friendly from reception through to the restaurant and terrace. We lived eating breakfast on the rooftop terrace and the cosy atmosphere of the restaurant. Altogether a relaxing stay in relaxed Essaouira.

4-Sterne Riad mit ausgezeichnetem Restaurant

Wir waren übers Wochenende in Essaouira und buchten das Riad wegen der guten Lage zur Stadt. Wir erhielten einen Upgrade zu einem Komfort-Zimmer, welches sehr groß und gut aufgeteilt war. Reisende sollten abends unbedingt im Hausrestaurant speisen. Das Tagesmenu für MAD 120,— war an beiden Tagen hervorragend und ein mehrfaches dieses Betrages wert. Dazu kam ein sehr aufmerksamer Service. Lediglich der Wein war etwas teuer aber noch im Rahmen. Auch das inklusive Frühstück ist super. Zuletzt bietet die Dachterrasse einen atemberaubenden Blick auf Strand und Hafen. Das Dar l Oussia ist jedem, der nach Essaouira reist wärmstens zu empfehlen
