Very friendly welcome. Always felt safe. Wonderful breakfast, the fresh orange juice was delicious. My only reason for a slightly lower score was the accessibility in our room. It was a stunning room but the tiled stairs coming out of the bathroom were a big hazard. My husband (fit, active 30 year old) slipped and has fractured his elbow. Might be worth more than one bath mat being provided in this room to avoid this happening to anyone else.

We only spent one night in the superior suite room 7, but it was one of the best places and rooms we have ever stayed whilst travelling abroad. The staff are all extremely friendly, welcoming and warm, the room was very clean and smelt amazing, the bed and bedding is the most comfortable I've ever slept in, the soaps and lotions are devine, the location is excellent right in the centre of the Medina, the breakfast was delicious and the jams homemade. Everything was just fabulous.

Charming riad in the medina. Stayed 3 nights in the deluxe room #10 on the rooftop - comfortable room with a separate small living area and an outdoor sitting area, great for relaxing in the afternoon sunshine. Breakfast was good, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Good location down a quiet alleyway.

Two days before my check-in date, I called Villa Garance for recommendations of dinner places. I was told "oh there's a little problem with your booking, only a little problem, not big problem. We accepted a tour group and we have no room for you. We book you in another hotel which is better than us. Come to the reception and we will bring you there". So I asked which hotel they moved me into, they told me was Liouba. Then I searched online and found out Liouba was all sold out that night. I called back Villa Garance if they confirm that i have a room, because i couldn't find any room in the last minute by myself. Villa Garance called Liouba in another line and booked the room. Then I called Liouba to confirm it, it took like an hour back and forth, finally Liouba confirmed that I have a room. The fact that Villa Garance has no business commitment to individual bookings, didn't reached out to me and told me about this information until I called them is unacceptable. They expected me to show up at their reception to receive the news and waste our valuable vacation time travelling between hotels. I was happy with Liouba hotel for their service but still I filed a complaint with Expedia about Villa Garance. And Expedia told me they contacted Villa Garance and was told this is totally business as usual and they have done this to many other clients. Just want to write my experience here so whoever book this hotel can be prepared for such incident as "business as usual".

My sister and I stayed at the Villa Garance from the 10th to the 14th March. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was wonderful and served up on the roof terrace. It is situated down an alley in the Medina and is very central for walking to the port or the beach. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

An old jewish riad, so there were some external windows, unusual for a Riad. Hence good light, some cosy nooks and crannies, a welcoming fireplace for cold evenings. Decor is lovely, the owner Pierre is a sweetie. Really pleased.

This is the best place we have found to stay in Essaouira. We have stayed in 5 different road, each with their strengths and weaknesses. But Villa Garance is by far the most comfortable. We will stay again.

No faults with the hotel , staff very helpful and friendly. Great location just off one of the main streets in the medina yet quiet, though there is a school next door this wasn't an issue for us. Bedrooms and general feel of the hotel is great.

Everything was great except no blackout curtains (outside our room there was a streetlight lit until dawn) so it was never very dark. There is a school right next to it but they were on holiday so no noise from there only passers by in the street. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was always delicious. And relaxing there in the afternoons. We had 1 massage and it was good. They also helped plan outings.

What a lovely place to stay, so close to the action of the Medina but with the quiet of a cozy home. Kind and thoughtful staff. Nice breakfast. Peaceful spot on the roof deck to read and think.

Perfect place to stay in the old city of Essaouira. I wish I had stayed in Marrakech less time and here more. Quiet. Charming. Easy walk to suprabus, beach, etc.
