"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."
"A great location inside the Medina with morrocan hospitality. From the moment we walked in, the staff was extremely courteous and helpful! The seaside view rooms are definitely worth booking. The upstairs terrace where meals were served had excellent ambiance and views as well!"
"I recently had the pleasure of staying at Riad Mumtaz Mahal in Essaouira from June 4th to June 7th, 2026. The experience was fantastic, and the Riad provided the perfect home base for exploring the city. I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone visiting Essaouira."
"Staff are courteous. The shower area needs a little tidy up but overall clean. Breads and jams for breakfast. The Riad does not show correctly on google maps so hard to find."
"The Nafoura Mogador is a tiny place in the heart of the Medina of Essaouira. But you will love it from the entrance: welcoming common spaces, clean and comfortable rooms, sunny terrace and, above all, very supportive staff! Definitely, a recommendable address in Essaouira!"

One of our favorite stays ever. Excellent location with the most beautiful views in the city. The view right out our hotel room Mogador was stunning. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant was great and there is a live gnawa band every night that was very fun, (it ends at 9:30) really can’t say enough about the quality of this hotel. I hope we can come back some day
The Riad was clearly taken care of really well. The owners have great taste and pride and make every effort to please their guests.
The breakfasts were wonderful and the staff were great.
We loved our stay here….
A beautiful and impeccably kept Riad in an excellent location in Essaouera. Fatiha and the staff were so helpful. Breakfast on the rooftop was amazing every morning.
The staff is amazing, starting off with rosewater and warm handtowels when you first check in. Lovely place, full of charm and excellent location for shopping and touring around Essaouira.
Villa Quieta in Essaouira was definitely one of the most beautiful hotels I've ever stayed. When you enter you are greeted with Moroccan beauty from all angles. The staff was also top notch, going above and beyond for our satisfaction. We didn't even arrive there until about 4 am, and there was someone up waiting for us so that we could get right in and get to bed upon arrival. Breakfast is delicious and served in their gorgeous dining area. The grounds are lovely with a beautiful in-ground pool...
I had a wonderful one-week stay at Dar Amastan during the Gnaoua Festival and would happily stay here again. This riad had only been open about a month when I visited, but the hospitality was exceptional.
The location is excellent—an easy walk to the medina, beach, restaurants, and festival venues while still being peaceful. The rooftop breakfasts were a highlight, with fresh orange juice, traditional Moroccan breads and pancakes, eggs, honey, amlou, olives, and other local specialties.
The...
Clean room,Exceptionnel service, breakfast was fantastic(everything you need), couples , singles or families you will not regret your stay.
Thanks and please keep it up👍
The breakfast was fresh and delicious overlooking the ocean on the 4th floor. The hotel is really clean and less than 1 year old. The room was spacious and felt more like an apartment. Only downside is it's about a 1.5 mile walk to the medina/souq but it's only a few minute walk to the beach. It's such a beautiful and relaxing place. I would stay here again when i come back to Essaouira.
Amazing experience. The spa was so peaceful best massage of my life. Loved the rooftop to hang out. My cousin and I had the best experience with the most friendly staff. Will stay again.
The Riad was beautiful. Very luxurious. The staff was top notch. Met the owner. Very upscale. Loved my room. It was like a Four Seasons. Loved the basket of Moroccan shoes to wear during the stay. The rooftop was beautiful and had everything to make it comfortable. I had dinner at Riad one evening. The very best monkfish. This Riad was a highlight of my stay in Morocco. Thank you so much.
