Lot of items for the daily breakfast buffet. Shopping/eating around this place. Kind of far away to walk from the taxi dropping areas. Flat areas, no steps. This hotels has a elevator. Rooms need more plug points and bright lights. Outside kind of dirty due to cats/dogs. We saw even locals cover their noses around this area. Although some one washed the roads one day, maybe need to do more often.

My wife and I absolutely loved this riad/hotel!! The hospitality and service is remarkable. All of the workers are so friendly and accommodating. The breakfast and dinner is delicious. Lastly, the ocean view from our hotel room was surreal and like a dream. We loved falling asleep to the ocean waves at night. The hotel has so much charm and is one of my all time favorite hotels and that’s coming from a world traveler who has been to a lot of hotels. My wife and I even went to the Atlas Mountains after our stay at the hotel and ended up immediately coming back to this hotel during the same trip since we missed it so much. I rarely write hotel reviews but this one certainly deserved it! We can’t wait to come back again soon.

We didn't get the sea view suite that we booked, which was very unfortunate, but they did give us a free dinner which was excellent, and they also gave us a nice fruit basket. We ended up in a standard room which looked out on to the Medina. It was very noisy outside at night and while the room was beautiful, the bathroom was a big letdown. It had a shower/tub combination with a shower curtain and it was quite awful. The hotel itself is spectacular and in a nice location for exploring the Medina. The restaurant and rooftop terrace are very nice, and the food was excellent. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you get an upgraded room.

The highlight of this hotel is the view. Absolutely aim for an ocean view room, but if not, there are ample opportunities to enjoy the view from the rooftop, the enclosed rooftop lounge, or the wall of windows in the dining area.

Staff were absolutely wonderful, especially the women at the front desk - they made us feel welcomed and valued right from the start!

This hotel has an elevator. We're normally stair people, but after long days, or when moving luggage, it's so nice to have the elevator option.

The only downside was the breakfast. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, it just wasn't good either. Breakfast was more of an opportunity to grab a bottled water for the day and get a little something in the belly before heading out, but never more than okay. The good thing is there are a number of wonderful restaurants in town.

The Riad Mimouna is beautiful (my wife would say”magical”)! From the moment you walk in the main door the beauty of the interior stands out. Rooms are decorated in a very traditional manner, and are a great space for a couple in our case. The real surprise was going up to the roof top restaurant and lounge area. This overlooked the ocean and might be the best view in Essaouira. Our breakfasts were served here and what a way to start your day! I would recommend this Riad to everyone.

We arrived and we were given a room that was different from the one we paid for. The room we were offered was half of the price of what we paid. The property staff including the manager told us that that is what they received from the agency that represent Expedia and they showed us the document they received from Travel Councilling group. The problem we had is the property did not offer any help to solve the issue, they asked me to go call Expedia to figured it out. That was a poor service to client. I spent one hour with Expedia Agent over the phone and at the end I accepted to pay extra money to get the room I wanted.
This was a poor experience . Expedia must revise its agreement with its intermediary in Morocco as even Expedia staff could not reach neither the agency nor the property management.

The views from inside the room were spectacular. The beach and ocean waves are right under your window. However, in order to walk/swim in it, you have to walk 30 minutes around the town to get to it. The beach has some trash floating around it. The TV channels are great when you need a break from all the vendors of the medenia. Breakfast was great but i believe the hard boiled egg made me sick... thats how i know the TV selection was great. Room service was fast but the spaghetti bolenese is not the chefs strong suit. Overall, i would stay here again. I would bring a dive mask and stay away from the eggs.

The best thing about this riad is the location. It has amazing views of the ocean and is right on the water. Definitely pay the extra few dollars for a seaside room. While the staff was nice we didn’t find them to be overly welcoming as we had become accustomed to during our other riad stays.

The best part was the view. The room smelled very musty/moldy. It was quite cold, and felt like sleeping in an ancient stone castle/dungeon. The electrical plugs were not available to charge phones unless the lighting was unplugged. The rooms need rugs or things of that nature to warm it up and make it cozy. The bathroom walls and window needed painting and repair. The room had a layer of dust including the remote for the tv that didn’t work. The water barely got warm. The breakfast was rather cheap and certainly not buffet style as many places in Morocco that we have visited are. The lobby was nice as were the staff who did all they could to resolve some of these concerns. I wouldn’t ever stay here again nor would I recommend it to anyone.

Not in any way a 4 star hotel and had a very strange feeling to it
-On arrival they did not have our reservation and claimed Expedia did not send it to them (even though I had the confirmation on my phone)
-The room was dark and run down and dusty (there were cobwebs in one corner of the room), there were two random drinking glasses in separate parts of the room and nothing else in terms of amenities and no information in the room on Essouria, it felt almost like a storage room for furniture.
-Musty smelling and quite creepy feeling (if you are into movies like Suspiria this aspect may be a bonus)
-Mediocre breakfast
-The hotel would provide a kettle or hot water in the evening and had no bottled water in the room/charged us for bottled water.

Central Riad close to souks & sea.

A lovely Riad, tucked away down one of the winding alleyways of the medina. The rooms are spread over five floors. Our room had a great sea view, good decor,tv, safe & comfortable bed. The bathroom let it down, needed a bit of maintenance; broken towel rail & bin. The shower flooded the bathroom floor within minutes of being turned on, as there was no lip on the showerbase.
Breakfast is served on the top floor of the riad so you can enjoy the panoramic views of the sea while you eat. Its a set menu of boiled egg, bread rolls, pain au chocolat, mini cheese, yoghurt, cake & pancakes with jam or honey. Tea/coffee, fresh orange juice and bottle of water. Very filling.
There is free wifi, but you can only access the sigmal near the reception desk on the ground floor.

Potential but some short-comings

The biggest problem with Riad Mimouna was getting there. They do now provide any instructions and we had come straight from driving from the airport in Casablanca. Telling the guests what gate to park their car at would have made a huge difference with this process. It is in the Medina so no cars allowed, which would have been fine if the hotel had provided any instruction about how to get to their hotel. We eventually figured it out through hiring porters that line the medina. When we arrived the hotel welcomed us with an upgrade to a room that had a beautiful view of the ocean. The view was spectacular. The comforts of the room fell somewhat short after that. The bathroom was less than clean and the bed sheets had that ocean mustiness and humidity. Some of this may just be a reality of where the riad was located but was uncomfortable nonetheless. Overall, this hotel has tons of potential but just needs a little TLC.

The only thing I enjoyed about this hotel was the proximity to the beach and the breakfast. this hotel should really be considered a 2 star motel and they should change their amenities list, considering that they have none. Dirty, unsafe, cold, boring. Worst experience ever, we left as soon as we could.

Good Hotel - bad area (Medina)

This is a good hotel, with beautiful Moroccan art decoration. There is a fantastic terrasse on top where you will enjoy a good breakfast. My only real issue was related with the location of this hotel, as it is in the center of the Medina and it is impossible to reach by taxi. Taxi will leave you outside the Medina and after it is up to you to reach your destination. I felt very unconfortable walking the Medina at night. Watch out!

Riad Mimouna - best riad throughout Morocco

This riad was the best one we stayed out at, out of 9 cities we traveled throughout the country! The staff is so wonderful, the rooms are gorgeous, with amazing views of the cliff waters. The breakfast was the best - with terrace view, large spread of different items catered to individual needs, & the personal wait staff. We love Essouria as a whole - it has it all & the Riad Mimouna was beyond expectations!!! Can't wait to come back & stay at the riad, again!

Breath taking views!

This has to be hands down the best hotel in the medina... The staff was delightful, young woman at desk was sooooo nice...the room clean, beds amazing and the view by far awesome... We only speak English and they were of great help. 10000% my favorite place on our trip to morocco

lovely view of the crashing waves

We stayed for four nights at Mimounia at the start of our trip. It is located in a quiet part of the medina but only a few minutes walk from the main sea front square. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly, breakfast hearty and served until midday, and with paying for the sea view rooms with views over the Atlantic and crashing waves. A touch noisy at first but the sea air meant we slept fitfully and awesome to lovely sea breezes

Best views in town

From the welcoming mint tea to the delicious breakfast on the roof-top terrace overlooking the ocean, this riad was a real treat. Both my husband and my room, and my kids across the hall had amazing ocean views, with dramatic, crashing waves. One of the exotic sites of Morocco.
