We stayed a couple of nights at the riad and it was absolutely fantastic. Thanks to Amine and the staff, we fell at home at every moment. Amine was also very convenient and gave us an insightful overview of the highlights of the city when we arrived and throughout all of our stay. The breakfast was also amazing. We will definitely come back to Essaouira in the same riad. Thank you so much!

Lovely little riad with easy access to everything. The rooms are immaculate and very comfortable. The breakfast room is a delight and the breakfast meal is the best we had in 3 weeks of travel. Everyone is friendly, helpful and informative. I highly recommend staying here.

Lovely road in the Medina.
Zack from the Riad greeted us and was a fantastic host, attending to all our needs. Breakfast was excellent. Would definitely stay here again. Our only complaint was at times in night it was a bit noisy as the garbage man was cleaning the streets in the Medina. Being in the Medina I guess that is to be expected. Another consideration is the room had no air conditioning, but with the windows open it cooled down nicely - hence the street noise.

Beautiful and Perfectly Located
We loved our stay here. The owner was quick to help us arrange taxis, the hotel was clean and beautifully decorated. My favorite part of the stay was the AMAZING breakfast that we had in the morning. All the details of this place were perfect.

Super breakfast
Breakfast was superb. Room was large and bathroom was very good. However pillows need replacing. Roof terrace has been neglected. The courtyard lacks atmosphere and neighbouring building work has obscured quite a lot of light.

Charming, well decorated Riad
Great overall experience staying at this place! Had a bit of a misunderstanding when checking in but glad it got sorted out. Such a convenient location away from all the busy streets while still being central enough to be able to go back to multiple times throughout the day. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and the room was well decorated and clean - we even had our own private balcony. Would definitely stay here again!

What an absolutely wonderful hotel! I don’t normally write reviews but I absolutely have to for this place. The hotel is beautiful, the room is stunning with a gorgeous balcony looking over the little courtyard. Superbly friendly and helpful staff, wonderful breakfast, and right in the heart of the medina. And little touches like fresh flowers on the table and in the bathroom have made this a place we will definitely come back to!

La ruelle ne paie pas de mine mais une fois la porte d'entrée franchie, on découvre un havre de paix au décor soigné. Le patio arboré est particulièrement agréable. L'accueil et la gentillesse du personnel et du propriétaire sont remarquables. Il prend le temps de nous fournir les cartes et informations utiles pour passer un agréable séjour. Une belle chambre confortable, au calme car éloignée de l'agitation des rues principales de la médina qui restent accessibles en une à deux minutes de marche. Literie de qualité, belle salle d'eau. Les petits déjeuners sont aussi copieux que bons, et l'on découvre chaque jour de nouvelles choses sur la table. Nous sommes restés 5 jours et notre séjour au riad à simplement été parfait, pour un budget très raisonnable. Nous y reviendrons sans hésitation !

Un coin de paradis à essaouira
Superbe séjour à notre grande surprise pour notre 1er fois dans ce magnifique riad l'équipe est au top et toujours prêt à nous aider à la moindre question. Nous n'oublierons pas notre arrivée très tardive (1h00 du matin) suite à un retard de notre vol et du repas prêt à notre arrivée, pour cela et le reste de cet accueil nous reviendrons avec certitude chez vous avec grand plaisir. Merci encore ! Patrick et Laure

Un agréable séjour au Riad Dar’arwil. Dans une rue calme en plein cœur de la médina. Un personnel discret mais très à l’écoute de la clientèle. Un très bon petit déjeuner qui varie tous les jours. Chambre très correcte. A recommander sans hésiter.

This is a very clean and quiet Riad. The owners and staff are wonderful. It is off the Main Street, easy to find and easy to go into the center of the Medina. We highly recommend. Great value.

エッサウィラの滞在にぴったりのロケーションです。2泊でしたが、違う内容の朝食で、とても美味しかったです。部屋も清潔で広く、とても快適で、買い物や観光の間に何度も休憩に戻っていました。チェックインの時に、スタッフがエッサウィラの観光ポイントを教えてくれてとても有意義に過ごすことができました。Supratoursのバス停も近いです。
