리아드 알 마디나(Riad Al Madina)

Un très bon choix. Le service comme le lieu sont top ! La restauration et le personnel son très bien. La cheminée allumée dans la salle du restaurant est un énorme plus et une formidable surprise. Je recommande chaudement cette adresse. Merci pour leur accueil !

Quaint. Only real advantage is its location. Rooms small. Shower was a challenge. Food was average at best. Stairs stairs stairs to get to rooms. But it is in the middle of things with easy access to the harbour and medina

This was the 11th Riad that we had stayed at in Morocco, and unfortunately it was a disappointment from start to finish. We arrived, didn’t even see the receptionist who was hidden behind a glass screen. At every other Riad, we’d been warmly greeted by the staff with mint tea and often biscuits. This was a totally different experience - no tea, no warm welcome, no interest, they didn’t show us around at all, and we only knew there was a roof terrace from other reviews!. Our room (on the 2nd floor when Riad almost empty - why?), was very small, no ac, no hairdryer (they did provide one when asked), no toiletries, no water - these were at all the other Riads. Breakfast was fine, as was the dinner we had one night, but total disengagement of the staff, hardly a word. The Riad is in the medina, and you need a cart to take your luggage. The “busboy” carried our suitcases upstairs (not our fault 2nd floor) and was as miserable as sin. Having read the other reviews, our comments are not the first in this vein, and we wonder why the Riad hasn’t made some changes - go out in the street, we met 2 lovely young men working in the cafe opposite and the stall next door who’d knock spots off their staff!!

Cozy and nice and with very different rooms and interior. Be aware that several of the rooms do not face the courtyard and that several require stair climbing. !!! Once up there look out for hidden discreet rooftops and sun-beds. For some reason the hotel does not tell about them. It can be difficile find a waiter but if you do they’re ready to serve you

Jann & Jo stayed in Riad Al Madina September. A wonderful, traditional Moroccan Riad that is welcoming, comfortable and has really lovely, helpful staff. Located within the Medina, the surrounding streets are charming and interesting, with so much to see and do all the time. There is a huge choice places to eat or get refreshments very close by, from where you can watch life in Essaouria. We were happy with our rooms, which were clean, comfortable and interesting. We enjoyed our breakfasts every day and had a couple of delicious evening meals there too; as well as sometimes enjoying a glass of wine while looking at the night sky from the open central courtyard. A big thanks to all the staff who we will never forget for being so friendly, helpful and efficient – a great team! A special thanks to two of the catering team, Zach and Yosef, who were so kind and caring during the hours following the earthquake. Highly recommend this Riad!

This was the only Hotel in Marokko were we felt that we were not welcome. May be they had a new staff, since the hotel probably newly opened after the Covid?? But this was not a hotel for grown ups over 180 cm. The stairs were so low that you knocked your head in the ceiling going down. The rooms and specially the bathrooms needed urgently renovating. It was really unpleasant to take a shower in the the very bad bathtub.

Walking through the Medina we came across this restaurant at Riad Al Madina in Essaouira Morocco. The interior is very nice and welcoming . We felt at home and was greeted by a very friendly server Ha**** who was very patient as we took out time reading our menus. We ordered a bottle of wine and water which Ha**** brought promptly and set up at a small table. The wine a local wine was very good . We ordered Bruschetta as a starter and I think it was the best Bruschetta I had ever had .. a eggplant base topped with tomatoes and pesto . Just wonderful . We then had Spaghetti Vongole and Lasagna … both dishes were superb . Beautiful ambience , great food and excellent service made our dinner remembered. Thank you Ha**** !

Lovely hotel, good food, live music sometimes

We have stayed many times and love the place for its efficient and friendly staff and the original Moroccan decoration and style.
