I had a fantastic stay - the manager was so kind and helpful and the location was fantastic. I worked from the central area 2 of the days I was there, and the wifi worked really well. Also, as a solo traveler it was a good place to meet people. Highly recommend!

Riad Babette is a stunning, family-run gem in the heart of Essaouira’s medina. Said, the owner, is incredibly kind and welcoming, helping us with anything we needed. The riad has been recently renovated with impeccable taste and offers all the modern comforts you could ask for. The rooftop terrace boasts a breathtaking view, but another real highlight is the breakfast. The lady who prepares it is truly a chef – we had the best msemen and omelette of our entire trip through Morocco. What more can I say? I wish this hardworking family all the success they deserve, as their talent is undeniable! It’s a shame we only stayed one night, but in shā' Allah we’ll be back soon!

The location was really good, in the heart of Essaouira, but tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets. It had real character and charm. The staff who we had contact with , Chichham and the young lady on reception who I sadly haven't got her name, could not have been more friendly and helpful. They really added to our stay there. The room we had was comfortable and very clean, which was a theam of the rest of the accommodation. I would be very happy to go back there , and would happily recommend Riad dar Sebta to anyone looking to stay at a Riad in Essaouira.

Beautiful Riad with exceptional interior design in the middle of the Medina. Breakfast, served on the rooftop, was one of the best we had in Morocco. Staff was very helpful. When the night was chilly they even fired up the chimney for us. Definitely worth a visit!

10/10 It was a really great hotel. The people here were very nice and friendly. It was great experience for us. Also the room was very clean and beautifully decorated. Simo (the host) was very friendly and is very dedicated to his job. He seems to really love what he is doing. As soon as he saw us he offered us some tea and gave us water. Also the breakfast he put up was amazing and traditional. We recommend this hotel to everyone who gets to Essaouira. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come here again anytime soon.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

    Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
