Riad Emotion

Jederzeit gerne wieder

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riad Emotion, it was everything we had hoped, small, intimate and quiet. The owners Philippe and Gisele clearly love their home and rightly so, their attention to detail is everywhere. It's a charming place, in a wonderful central location, close to everything. Rooms, especially the Suites are large and well appointed, with huge comfortable beds and lovely little touches, including seating outside the room, which we loved, especially to hear the sea and watch the tuneful little birds fly in and out to feed their young. The staff are ever so friendly and attentive. Breakfast is one of the best we have had in a riad - the yogurt is divine. Thank you Philippe and Gisele for a lovely, relaxing 4 night stay.

Beautiful riad in the heart of the Medina. Phillipe and Giselle are wonderful hosts, and their staff are very attentive and kind. The interior design is stunning and everything has been thought of. Lovely touches such as rose petals scattered. When we left they gave us snacks for the journey and some very high quality Argan oil. Highly recommended

Riad Emotion Boutique Hotel is an absolute gem and my friend and I had an absolutely wonderful stay. The rooms are beautiful and the beds very comfortable. The staff is so so warm and welcoming and ready to help. The breakfast is absolutely delicious - particularly the orange blossom yogurt!! YUM! And the common spaces are exquisite! It was such a wonderful place to call home while we were exploring such a beautiful city and located right at the heart of the Medina it was so central located that it made it great particularly after a night of listening to beautiful music on a roof top terrace - our beds were always only a few blocks away. We can't wait to return!

Great stay! We very much enjoyed it!

We arrived with no expectations, and with no knowledge of the town. We were pleasantly surprised by both. The town is a gem, windy and welcoming, and offers delicious seafood. The Riad Emotion was splendid, hosts Phillipe and his wife were super-generous, and the staff served exquisite breakfasts on the the rooftop terrace. The interior is tasteful, and our room was perfect.

Did not live up to other riads in my experience. One consideration is they use an extremely strong cleaning product that made my stomach turn. I've never had issues with chemical cleaners before. Internet is at times unusable. Location is as good as any if you like to be central and near most everything. Breakfast is very solid for a hotel, but again falls behind other riads.

Giselle, Philippe and their entire staff were really welcoming and provided an excellent level of service during our entire stay. The whole riad is beautifully designed and is the product of Giselle and Phillipe's creative vision and hard work. Our room was gorgeous, very clean and very inviting. There were times it was such a struggle to go out and explore Essaouria since it was so tempting to just laze around in our stunning room. Breakfast was top-notch and probably the best one we've had in our entire stay in Morocco. I would definitely recommend staying in this place! My husband and I are very keen on returning to Essaouira and staying here again.

Riad Emotion is an amazing spot to stay in Essaouira. The light hits this riad perfectly as the fresh air and sun of the wind city sweep you in. The entrance, rooms, and roof terrace could not be more peaceful. Right off of the medina but still close enough to the action. All said, we were lucky enough to travel to Morocco in May after getting the vaccine and while much was still on lockdown they welcomed arms. Cannot recommend Riad Emotion enough! Riad Emotion est un endroit incroyable pour séjourner à Essaouira. La lumière frappe parfaitement ce riad alors que l'air frais et le soleil de la ville du vent vous envahissent. L'entrée, les chambres et la terrasse sur le toit ne pourraient pas être plus paisibles. Juste à côté de la médina mais toujours assez proche de l'action. Tout compte fait, nous avons eu la chance de voyager au Maroc en mai après avoir reçu le vaccin et alors que beaucoup étaient encore bloqués, ils ont accueilli les armes. Je ne saurais trop recommander le Riad Emotion!
