We only spent one night in the superior suite room 7, but it was one of the best places and rooms we have ever stayed whilst travelling abroad. The staff are all extremely friendly, welcoming and warm, the room was very clean and smelt amazing, the bed and bedding is the most comfortable I've ever slept in, the soaps and lotions are devine, the location is excellent right in the centre of the Medina, the breakfast was delicious and the jams homemade. Everything was just fabulous.

Bellissimo

Esperienza certamente positiva! La camera luminosa e arredata molto bene, in uno stile che abbiamo molto apprezzato. La colazione in terrazza davvero piacevole anche se non ricchissima. Si potrebbe aggiungere qualcosa di salato. Da migliorare: la scale per arrivare al secondo piano e poi alla terrazza sono veramente ripide: non mi sorprederei se qualcuno inciampasse, a maggior ragione con l valigie. Consiglierei quindi un restyling delle scale mentre tutti il resto del Riad è PERFETTO!

Very friendly welcome. Always felt safe. Wonderful breakfast, the fresh orange juice was delicious. My only reason for a slightly lower score was the accessibility in our room. It was a stunning room but the tiled stairs coming out of the bathroom were a big hazard. My husband (fit, active 30 year old) slipped and has fractured his elbow. Might be worth more than one bath mat being provided in this room to avoid this happening to anyone else.

Charming riad in the medina. Stayed 3 nights in the deluxe room #10 on the rooftop - comfortable room with a separate small living area and an outdoor sitting area, great for relaxing in the afternoon sunshine. Breakfast was good, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Good location down a quiet alleyway.

La Villa Garance est très bien située dans la médina, où ne circulent aucune voitures ni mobylette .Vous trouvez de nombreux resto pour y déguster du poisson frais provenant de la pêche du jour . Le personnel nous a bien indiqué tout ce qu'il fallait voir au niveau d'Essaouira . Le petit dej servi sur le roof top est très satisfaisant . Les chambres sont spacieuses et le lit est très confortable .

Disliked: Staff & service
Two days before my check-in date, I called Villa Garance for recommendations of dinner places. I was told "oh there's a little problem with your booking, only a little problem, not big problem. We accepted a tour group and we have no room for you. We book you in another hotel which is better than us. Come to the reception and we will bring you there". So I asked which hotel they moved me into, they told me was Liouba. Then I searched online and found out Liouba was all sold out that night. I called back Villa Garance if they confirm that i have a room, because i couldn't find any room in the last minute by myself. Villa Garance called Liouba in another line and booked the room. Then I called Liouba to confirm it, it took like an hour back and forth, finally Liouba confirmed that I have a room. The fact that Villa Garance has no business commitment to individual bookings, didn't reached out to me and told me about this information until I called them is unacceptable. They expected me to show up at their reception to receive the news and waste our valuable vacation time travelling between hotels. I was happy with Liouba hotel for their service but still I filed a complaint with Expedia about Villa Garance. And Expedia told me they contacted Villa Garance and was told this is totally business as usual and they have done this to many other clients. Just want to write my experience here so whoever book this hotel can be prepared for such incident as "business as usual".

merveilleux séjour.

Le Riad est très bien situé dans la médina d'Essaouira. lors de notre arrivée nous avons été parfaitement accueillis. les informations et indications nécessaire à notre séjour nous ont été données. La décoration du riad est belle, les chambres sont spacieuses et propres, le linge est de qualité. Le pdj, qui est pris sur le roof top du riad , dont la vue est magistrale, est copieux et de bonne qualité. Nous retiendrons surtout la gentillesse de toute l'équipe du riad tenue par la gérante Radia qui a fait de notre séjour une merveille.

Fantastic few days in Essaouria

My sister and I stayed at the Villa Garance from the 10th to the 14th March. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was wonderful and served up on the roof terrace. It is situated down an alley in the Medina and is very central for walking to the port or the beach. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Hôtel de charme et accueil chaleureux

Accueil chaleureux et chambre parfaite pour une famille de 4 personnes (2 adultes et deux garçons de 9 et 7 ans) . La décoration est faite avec beaucoup de goût et authenticité. L’emplacement parfait! Juste à 5 minutes de remparts, et au centre de la médina. Plein de petit commerce autour et pas pour autant bruyante! Le repos est garantie ! Nous gardons un super souvenir aussi du petit déjeuner qui était copieux et avec des produits frais, et en plus servit par un monsieur qui est aux petits soins! Merci infiniment pour ce séjour! Si on a la chance de revenir à Essaouira, on se reverra certainement!

An old jewish riad, so there were some external windows, unusual for a Riad. Hence good light, some cosy nooks and crannies, a welcoming fireplace for cold evenings. Decor is lovely, the owner Pierre is a sweetie. Really pleased.
