At Heure Bleue Palais the staff understands what great service is. The experience we had was really exceptional. It started with getting a free upgrade to a Deluxe Suite. The Suite was in one word “great”. Very comfortable and well decorated. All you wanted or needed was there. On daily base we were surprised with nice treats. Also daily breakfast was exceptional of quality. Very complete and diverse with high quality of products. One evening we had dinner in their restaurant. This as well was surprisingly well. All in all we had as frequent travelers a surprisingly great stay @ Heure Bleue Palais. Big compliments to Eric and his team.

FAQs about hotels in Essaouira

Morocco With a European Twist

Essaouira has developed from a hippie hangout to become a top Morocco beach resort with good surfing conditions. Its 18th-century medina is almost European in feel and narrow streets lead under low arches past fragrant spice stalls and local artisans selling everything from wood carvings to faience pottery.

Dotted around the souk are many traditional-style riads on Booking.com, hidden behind tiled façades and blue doors. Other Essaouira accommodation options include luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap apartments, and B&Bs near Essaouira Airport.

Also bright blue are the rowing boats bobbing gently in small harbours sheltered by the Scala of the Port, a wide walkway with ramparts through which several historic cannons poke out. At the end is the Citadel, a small fortress overlooking Mogador Island - the largest of the Iles Purpuraires, so-called for the purple shells found in their rocks that were once used to produce dyes for Roman senator togas.

Another fortress – Bordj El Berod – lies in pieces on the long, sandy beach south of the marina. In the opposite direction the coastline is more rocky and lined by the Scala of the Kasbah, the crenellated walls protecting the medina. Horseriding and camel safaris are available on the beach and you can also visit a Berber village inland.

    At Cultural Morocco Tours, we highly recommend including Essaouira in your Moroccan journey. This charming coastal city, known as the “Pearl of the Atlantic,” offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and relaxation. Visitors can wander through its UNESCO-listed medina with whitewashed houses and blue shutters, explore the lively souks and artisan workshops, and enjoy the fresh Atlantic breeze along the city’s beautiful beach. Essaouira is also famous for its delicious seafood, vibrant music scene, and warm, laid-back atmosphere. Whether for a day trip or a few relaxing nights, Essaouira is an unforgettable stop that captures the essence of Morocco’s coastal charm. Cultural Morocco Tours

    Nearly a 5 star hotel but not quite. Pair of knickers left in the bathroom. The staff seemed as if they would rather be somewhere else. I don't think one smiled or acknowledged our presence. The guy at reception was sullen and always seemed annoyed. At breakfast, no one bothered to take plates off the table when they were finished with. The breakfast was adequate. The room wasn't made up one day. It is a lovely building and a great location, but I will not be back.
