Les Terrasses d'Essaouira

3.5 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very good, (59)
"Centered in the heart of the Medina. Very warm welcome on arrival. Beautiful traditional Riad feel from when you walk through the door. Be prepared for many steps to climb or be sure to ask for a room on lower floors. Extremely spacious room. Nicely laid out. Traditional bathroom though no actual shower, only a shower head laying in the bath and no shower curtain which proved awkward and inconvenient. Exceptionally noisy from early morning with other guests and music playing. Room doesn’t block...

"Great little find. The staff was friendly and helpful, speaking to us in English, French and Spanish [multi-lingual group]. Staff helped us with directions as well as organize long-distance taxi services. Breakfast comprised of a series of breads and coffee/tea. The building, which appears to be rather other but well-kept, is located near one of the entrances of the medina. The rooms were comfortable, although the blankets seemed a little musty. There is hot water, but I believe it sometimes...
