    I had a delightful stay at Riad Belle. The apartment-style room was cozy and comfortable, and I loved the lovely views from the terrace during breakfast. The scent in the riad was enchanting, creating a truly relaxing atmosphere. The dinner I had during my stay was delicious, and Zorah's restaurant recommendations were always spot-on. The staff were helpful, and the owner went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. I highly recommend this hidden gem in a great location.

    The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay in the city even more enjoyable. The location was also great, as it allowed us to easily explore the city on foot and visit both ends of town. Additionally, the breakfast provided at the hotel was outstanding and the best we had during our entire stay in Morocco.

    One downside was the lack of bottled water in the bedrooms. It would have been more convenient to have individual bottles rather than carafes.

    The hotel had a lot of character and reflected the arty, relaxed atmosphere of the seaside. The interior was beautifully decorated and had nice and tasteful furniture. The rooftop terrace was definitely a highlight, offering stunning views of the ocean and a delicious breakfast. The owner was friendly and available for questions. The location was also great, just a short walk from the main roads in the area.

    It was a bit difficult to find the hotel at first, as it did not have a sign on the door yet. However, the people around the area were helpful in guiding me there.

    My stay at Riad Belle was absolutely delightful. The hidden location added a sense of adventure, and upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed by Zohra and her attentive staff. The rooms were immaculate, beautifully decorated, and provided a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. The multi-course dinner was not only delicious but also incredibly affordable. The highlight of my stay was enjoying breakfast and lunch on the rooftop terrace, with breathtaking views of the ocean. Zohra's tips on navigating the souks and her guided tour of the Medina were invaluable. I highly recommend this gem of a Riad.

    Amazing breakfast with plenty of tasty food to choose from and a breathtaking view. Conveniently located just a few minutes walk from the sea walls and central restaurants. Room size was perfect and bed was comfortable.

    Poor internet connection that only worked in the common areas. Hard to find the hotel as it's located in a small street.

    This hidden gem in the historic center offers a wonderful stay in Essaouira. The riad has been lovingly decorated with attention to detail, creating a relaxing and homely atmosphere. Guests can enjoy the peaceful terrace with its beautiful views and have a delicious breakfast served by the friendly staff. The location in the heart of the old town allows for easy exploration of the surrounding streets and discovering charming local restaurants and shops.

    The Wi-Fi connection may be weak at times due to the thick walls surrounding the riad.

    I really got great value for my money at the riad. The room, especially the Dunes room where I stayed, was fantastic and perfect for my one-night stay. The location was also excellent, close to the bastion and everything in the center. The staff, especially the lovely owner, were incredibly helpful and made me feel at home. The breakfast on the rooftop terrace was outstanding and the view of the ocean made it even more special.

    The breakfast offerings could have been improved slightly with more variety or some additional options.

    We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, surrounded by thick walls in the heart of the old Medina. It makes exploring the area so convenient, and we never had to worry about getting lost. The rooftop terrace was a highlight, with beautiful views of the sea. We enjoyed our breakfast there every morning, soaking in the sun and taking in the scenery. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff who made us feel right at home. The room amenities were also impressive, with a spacious sitting area, dressing area, and an in-room safe. The toiletries provided were of great quality, and the am/fm alarm clock was a nice touch. The dining options at the restaurant were excellent, and the bar/lounge area was a great place to unwind after a long day. this place offered a luxurious and comfortable experience with all the necessary facilities and amenities.

    All in all, we had a wonderful time at this hotel and would highly recommend it to our friends.

    We had a fantastic stay at this riad in the heart of the medina. The hotel facilities were great, with a beautifully renovated old building and a stunning rooftop terrace where we could see the sea. The location was perfect, as it was close to all the main attractions of this city. The cleanliness of the hotel, even in the common areas, was impressive. The breakfast served each morning was excellent, and the staff was friendly and accommodating.

    All was perfect.
