Nous ne recommandons pas car en cas de problème ce sera de votre faute et jamais de celle de l hôtelier
Des chambres bien décorées et une table excellente
Pas d électricité la nuit 2 nuits de suite et pour une personne appareillée pour l apnée du sommeil cela pose des problèmes de santé. Pas d excuses du personnel en nous…

Un magnifique havre de paix, authentique, impeccable et chaleureux.
Cet établissement est un véritable havre de paix au cœur de l’authenticité marocaine. Le riad est magnifique, décoré avec beaucoup de goût et mettant superbement en valeur l’artisanat local. La propreté est irréprochable…

Riad Malaika combines everything a tourist to Essaouira would need
The riad was well situated, spotlessly clean, room traditionally furnished and the staff exceptionally helpful and friendly. The food was the best I’ve had anywhere in Africa (and beyond). I’ll book again!
