Such a peacefull place to stay. Dar Afram was like our family during our stay in this beautiful city. The familiary vibe we’ve got here, in this house, didn’t let us stay only 2 nights (as planned), we stayed 5 nights and i can say after 2 weeks of Marocco (and now back in our regular lifes), our hearts are still in Essaouira, at Dar Afram’s place. This Riad has a traditional marrocan arhitecture, colourful an very cozy. The breakfast is served on a beautiful terrace with a nice view over the ocean and the buildings around. It was amazing and also very rich: bread, yogurt, fresh fruits, marmelade, traditional msemen, orange juice, butter, pancake, olives, tea, and we ate the best traditional couscous tajin in Marocco. This warm and sweet woman with her nice and kind friend gave us the feeling that we were at home, to our families. Unbelivable. We spend the evenings at the hotel, enjoying live music concerts with extraordinary musicians with great voice and guitar skills. We sang, we danced, we laughed and we had a great time in this place, we recomand it from the bottom of our heart. And we know for sure that we will come back again in this house of warm souls and beautiful people.

All hostels in Essaouira

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff were amazing, and so was the vibe. Great location inside the medina. It's not perfect, but it's definitely worth it and more for the cheap price we paid!!! I would stay here again if I travel on a budget.

    Great location in medina. The prettiest hostel I've seen interior-vise. 2 lovely cats living in the riad. Homely atmosphere, great for meeting people and hang out! Quiet in the night.

    All the staff is very friendly, the rooftop terrace is perfect for chilling, socializing and seeing the sunset, and the food served there at the bar is tasty. Even though it's a cheap hostel it keeps the minimum standards and since each floor can only be accessed by the people staying on it (they have security codes to enter the floor and room) the cleanness level doesn't get affected so much during the day. A very good budget friendly stay.
