"The room was nice and clean, with no dust or odour. The location is great with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The third-floor rooms don't have a balcony, but it didn't bother me. If you need the room with a balcony, it's better to contact them ahead. The breakfast is nice and freshly made, it is served on the rooftop. If you advised them, they could bring it to your room. "

"Nur die Terrasse wo man aufs Meer schauen kann war das einzige schöne an diesem Appartement , am ersten Tag wollte der Vermieter das das Zimmer jeden Tag geputzt haben obwohl ich es nicht mochte!. Liebe Leser oder Expedia verbietet diese Leuten das Sie eine seriöse Seite wie Expedia nutzen . Es ist nur betrügerische Masche und kontrolliert euer Gepäck es ist nicht sicher und ich habe das in keinem Residence gehört das der Gastgeber bestimmt wann was gemacht werden soll so eine Sturheit und...

Top Bab el-Marsa Hotel Reviews

Riad Sidi Magdoul

10/10 Excellent

"In the heart of the medina yet lovely and quiet. Helpful staff. Spotless room. "

Riad Mazal Mogador

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing Riad in a perfect location for exploring and enjoying all Essaouira has to offer. Faoud, Juliet and all the staff are wonderful people. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we felt welcomed and cared for. The rooms are so charming and comfortable and terrace is an experience on its own. Breakfast was always fresh and delicious. We can’t wait to visit again. Definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had!"

Cruiser Mogador Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was fresh and delicious overlooking the ocean on the 4th floor. The hotel is really clean and less than 1 year old. The room was spacious and felt more like an apartment. Only downside is it's about a 1.5 mile walk to the medina/souq but it's only a few minute walk to the beach. It's such a beautiful and relaxing place. I would stay here again when i come back to Essaouira. "

Riad Mimouna

8/10 Good

"The highlight of this hotel is the view. Absolutely aim for an ocean view room, but if not, there are ample opportunities to enjoy the view from the rooftop, the enclosed rooftop lounge, or the wall of windows in the dining area. Staff were absolutely wonderful, especially the women at the front desk - they made us feel welcomed and valued right from the start! This hotel has an elevator. We're normally stair people, but after long days, or when moving luggage, it's so nice to have the elevator option. The only downside was the breakfast. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, it just wasn't good either. Breakfast was more of an opportunity to grab a bottled water for the day and get a little something in the belly before heading out, but never more than okay. The good thing is there are a number of wonderful restaurants in town. "
