Top Essaouira Hotel Reviews

Riad Emotion

Riad Emotion

10/10 Excellent
"The only hiccup was they were at first, a little hard to find, but they sent someone to meet us, who promptly escorted us to the place, and from the moment we opened the door and were welcomed by the most incredible fragrance, we felt right at home. By far the best breakfast we were served during our two weeks in Morocco, and we were delighted by their old world hospitality. They made us feel as if their place were our home, and the furniture, decorations, art, are all carefully chosen, tasteful, fascinating. Cannot recommend highly enough."
