Top Bab el-Marsa Hotel Reviews

Salut Maroc Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Quelle accueil !!!"

Riad Mimouna

10/10 Excellent

"See previous room. Outstanding riad!"

Le Médina Essaouira Thalassa Sea & Spa - MGallery Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed early August and loved this hotel. The renovations are beautiful and this hotel will be amazing once it is all completed. There was some noise around the pool deck but it was manageable. I really loved all the palm plants and the pool area is lovely. This hotel is in a great location and you can easily walk around and see the sites. Highly recommend! We really enjoyed our time and the staff are helpful."

Riad Chbanate

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful spot right in the boarder of the Medina. So about 5-15 min walk anywhere. Beds were super comfortable and rooms were spacious. Loved the robes and bathtub in my room. Only thing it doesn’t have is pool or gym :) but I wasn’t expecting that. Breakfast was yummy. Pastries. Eggs of choice. Yogurt. Fruit bowl etc."

Hotel Coté Océan Mogador

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect."

Ryad Watier

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I had a very relaxed and pleasurable stay at Riad Watier. The staff (Fatiha, Hayat, and Nusha) were extraordinarily helpful and attended to our every wish. The Riad is quiet, which was very nourishing to our souls. Also, Essaouira is less touristy than other Moroccan destinations, which makes making a choice for a relaxed vacation ideal. I would highly recommend Riad Watier!"
