Hôtel Emeraude Essaouira

A hidden gem nestled in the heart of the old medina. The location is excellent with the main attractions only a small distance away, this hotel is perfectly situated for your trip. The staff were all lovely during my trip, and went the extra mile to ensure that everything with up to standard. The hotel was clean and well kept which was great, however the WiFI didn’t work very well in my room, cutting out regularly which was a little disappointing. All in all an excellent experience!

It’s a very cute hotel with a friendly and responsive staff

This hotel is incredible value for money. It’s beautifully appointed and the staff (especially Hammed) and breakfast are lovely. My only gripe is with its location. Having stayed in other riads I found this location noisier that others as its on a main thoroughfare. This was no doubt because our room faced the said thoroughfare. We stayed in room 30 which was bright and airy but was quite small so we struggled with space. If I were to stay again, which I would happily do, I would probably choose a larger room towards the back of the riad and I would also book direct/pay on arrival in cash, since I found out afterwards that the website I booked through took 20% of the charge plus an additional 4% for paying in advance by card
