What guests think
At Hôtel Emeraude Essaouira, travellers highlight a central medina location near a gate and the Supratours bus terminal, welcoming staff, and compact but thoughtfully arranged rooms that are generally clean and comfortable.
Some guests mention occasional noise from the medina or breakfast service and note inconsistent hot water or awkward showers in a few rooms. Breakfast is widely praised for quality and presentation on the rooftop terrace, though one review was negative and another wanted more savory options. Overall, it suits travellers seeking a straightforward, good-value base in Essaouira.

Stunningly beautiful riad just a stone’s throw from the bus terminal. This was hands down the best and most comfortable property that I stayed at in my entire trip to Morocco. The room was clean, modern, inviting, bright, and welcoming. Unique lamps and furnishings gave it a cozy feel. Honestly, this place is probably underpriced - get in while you can. Breakfast was superb, and served on the terrace. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming, and even brought me coffee to enjoy while I worked on my computer in the reception area. Unbelievably amazing guesthouse - I was actually disappointed to leave.

Amazing value for money! Spotlessly clean and lovely decor, very nice breakfast on the terrace every morning and the staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was small but very clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed! Great location within the medina, 5 minutes walk to the centre and 10 minutes walk to the beach.

Well appointed and charming riad that was easy to find, well run with a nice breakfast and comfortable rooftop spaces to hang out. Rooms are small and tidy, but cleverly arranged with modern bathrooms. Ask to pick the room that fits your preferences as per noise, privacy, etc. Beach vibes.

Charming property with very hospitable staff, the room was clean and an adequate size for the price, the shower is a bit awkward to use and i found myself struggling to keep the water contained. Its located right next to one of the wall entrances which is convenient, the breakfast was very nice and the fact you can have it on the terrace is a nice touch, the terrace itself is quaint and although theres not much of a view it still gives an open feeling letting plenty of sunlight in

Hôtel plein de charme, confortable et propre. Très bon accueil, et le petit déjeuner sur les toîts fait maison sur commande est parfait. Je recommande sans hésiter cet hôtel, d'autant qu'il est très bien placé, à l'entrée de la médina.

Very small room in the old Medina but very close to pay parking. The stairs are a bit difficult for old people but doable. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and friendly!!! Very clean, very hot water in a good shower, spotless sheets, fast internet. In spite of being in the medina, it was very quiet after 22:30.

L’accueil a été des plus chaleureux, Hamid est un hôte qui sait prendre soin des voyageurs et qui est soucieux de leur bien-être. Toutefois la chambre où nous avons séjourné ne disposait pas d’ouverture extérieure pour la salle de bain, ce qui cause de la moisissure au plafond & sur les boiseries/murs… L’absence de chauffage dans la chambre est à noter, car même s’il fait bon la journée, les températures baissent la nuit, et pour les frileux, il était difficile de se réchauffer… La rue est tout de même pas mal fréquentée et par conséquent assez bruyante… Malgré ces petits bémols, la bienveillance, l’accueil, et l’amabilité du personnel a permis de passer outre. Merci beaucoup pour ce séjour !

The place was the absolute best. Great location, quiet, airy and clean beyond reproach. The light blue and white color scheme was perfect. The rooms are smaller, but there is shelving and hooks aplenty. Also lamps in corners and over the beds. And oh yes, the staff are ever so friendly

Ein sehr schön eingerichtetes Hotel in Idealer Lage um alles Fußläufig zu erreichen. Der Stil der Unterkunft hat mir sehr zugesagt. Das Personal war mehr als freundlich. Beim Frühstück hätte ich persönlich mir auch eine Salzoge Komponente gewünscht im gegenzug zu den Marmeladen und co. Ansonsten waren wir sehr zufrieden mit der unterkunft und würden auch gerne wieder kommen. Jedoch nicht im Sommer, da dieses Hotel keine Klimaanlagen besitzt. Im februar war dies nun kein problem, aber ich kann mor vorstellen, dass man im Sommer Probleme mit der Temperatur auf den Zimmern haben könnte

Amazing value for money! Spotlessly clean and lovely decor, very nice breakfast on the terrace every morning and the staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was small but very clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed! Great location within the medina, 5 minutes walk to the centre and 10 minutes walk to the beach.

Very small room in the old Medina but very close to pay parking. The stairs are a bit difficult for old people but doable. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and friendly!!! Very clean, very hot water in a good shower, spotless sheets, fast internet. In spite of being in the medina, it was very quiet after 22:30.

Room was ok but the shower's hot water was hit and miss. Breakfast was good. The place is inside the Medina and gets noisy especially at night. WiFi was fine. A 5 minute walk to and from the supratours bus terminal. I would be fine to stay here again.

It was an overnight stay located in the heart of the Medina. Staff were helpful and provided me with a map and suggested things to see experience on my day there.

Charming property with very hospitable staff, the room was clean and an adequate size for the price, the shower is a bit awkward to use and i found myself struggling to keep the water contained. Its located right next to one of the wall entrances which is convenient, the breakfast was very nice and the fact you can have it on the terrace is a nice touch, the terrace itself is quaint and although theres not much of a view it still gives an open feeling letting plenty of sunlight in

Hôtel plein de charme, confortable et propre. Très bon accueil, et le petit déjeuner sur les toîts fait maison sur commande est parfait. Je recommande sans hésiter cet hôtel, d'autant qu'il est très bien placé, à l'entrée de la médina.

Stunningly beautiful riad just a stone’s throw from the bus terminal. This was hands down the best and most comfortable property that I stayed at in my entire trip to Morocco. The room was clean, modern, inviting, bright, and welcoming. Unique lamps and furnishings gave it a cozy feel. Honestly, this place is probably underpriced - get in while you can. Breakfast was superb, and served on the terrace. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming, and even brought me coffee to enjoy while I worked on my computer in the reception area. Unbelievably amazing guesthouse - I was actually disappointed to leave.

Riad très très bien situé. Dans le centre ville. Chambre style bohème et literie confortable. Personnels très très agréables, adorables. Très bons petits déjeuners marocains. Le seul bémol il n'y a pas de télévision. Sinon prestation à recommander vu qualité prix.
