"Delightful, traditional style riad in the heart of the medina, so convenient to everything in the medina. The staff was lovely and helpful. Breakfast was delicious with a lovely view from the rooftop terrace. I would definitely stay there again."

"Booked for 2 adults and 2 children and was given a self contained apartment with sitting area and tiny kitchen plus 2 bathrooms over 2 floors. View was amazing, staff polite and breakfast good. Only caution is upstairs bedroom ceiling low (6 feet) and stairs very narrow so may not be good for those with mobility problems. They do have rooms without these issues so just ask but we felt we had the best rooms here for the view alone. Roof terrace a bonus. "

Le Médina Essaouira Thalassa Sea & Spa - MGallery Collection
10/10 Excellent
"Really super hotel. Staff amazing esp Ahmed at Beach Bar, Imad at breakfast and our chambermaid Nazah. There is some refurbishment underway but no impact to our stay and it’s good to see the investment. The hotel is ideally located with its own beach area and bar which we used a lot. "
"A pearl in the Medina indeed. A wonderful room, facing the pounding Atlantic, with easy access to all of Essaouira. The breakfast was a great start to the day. My hamman and massage -- like my wife's pedicure and facial -- were refreshing, relaxing and effective. Add the amazing staff, and we'd come here anytime Essaouira calls."
"It was perfect!
The riad was in a perfect location, it was in the centre of the medina with everything so close by. The room was clean and had all the amenities needed.
The breakfast was great and the staff were responsive - Rita was brill!
The riad itself was gorgeous, with a lovely rooftop and a great lounge area. We got some great restaurant recommendations from staff too.
I definitely will be coming back to this beautiful riad and Essaouira ❤️
