Thank you!
I stayed here for a solo trip to Essaouira and absolutely fell in love with the city. Fatiha and her team could not have been more friendly and welcoming which played a big part in the trip being so special. My room was spotless, breakfasts up on the roof were lovely and every member of staff would go over and above to ensure you enjoyed your stay. This was my first trip to Essaouira and Morocco and I would encourage anyone who is thinking of visiting to do it and to stay here, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you again to everyone at Ryad Watier!

Wonderful Road Watier
We loved Road Watier, one of the loveliest and unique places we have ever stayed. Hyat and Fatiya were absolutely lovely hosts and it was fun chatting to them about our and their own travels and experiences, both had a wonderful sense of adventure and humour. all of the staff always had a smile for us. The property is amazing, and our two level family room was stunning. The Road is in a quiet lane in the medina, a minute or so from the sea and the stunning ramparts. We loved the ramparts and views of the sea, the lively harbour area and the cities extensive beach with all the surfers and kite surfing. Biggest regret was only staying for two nights, we should have stayed much longer.

From the moment I arrived I was made to feel so welcomed. Hayet was wonderful, as was everyone at the Ryad. Breakfast on the roof terrace with fresh fruit, juice, pancakes and coffee was a pleasure each morning. I loved my stay there

Fabulous hotel with amazing staff
We loved our stay at this amazing hotel. With only 10 rooms and a small, friendly team of staff this place really feels like a home from home. The rooms are beautiful and the rooftop space a quiet haven. But best of all, the staff all genuinely care that their guests have the very best experience and nothing is too much trouble. The restaurants and bars recommended by the hotel were the very best we visited. We can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful riad in the heart of the medina
Amazing riad! We booked a two story suite for our girls trip and weren’t disappointed! Absolutely beautiful and quite spacious! Service was incredible. The hotel helped welcomed us and lugged our huge baggage all the way to the third floor with zero complaints. Always welcoming, informative and very kind. Would stay here in a heartbeat again. Easy walking distance to everything as it’s in the heart of the Medina.

This property is a delight. An abandoned school in the center of the Medina has been artfully restored by Jean-Gabriel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the entire place is filled with an eclectic art collection and beautiful colors & light. Breakfast at sunrise on the roof terrace is nothing short of spectacular. And most of all Hayat, Fatima and all the staff staff are joy filled and attentive making you feel immediately at home. My adult daughter and I stayed here fourth three nights in early January and will definitely return again.

Best host we can ask for
I was intimidated by the idea of staying in a narrow alley riad, albeit all the great stories i read about it being any travellers' best experiences in Essaouria. I was wrong. While it wasn't exactly easy to get back esp late at nights, people are so helpful and almost everyone knew ryad watier there. Gabrielle was funny and attentive to datailsm a 1000 percent host. Try his family stule dinner. If you don't like it, I should pay for it. Better than eating out and he provides wine, hard to find in medina restaurants. Big rooms and great staff. CAn't wait to get back and visit You are in good hands with him!

Gorgeous, quaint courtyard ‘boutique’ hotel; delightfuly decorated rooms, peaceful ambience but only the opening of a couple of doors separates you from the intensity of the Médina. A truly pleasant place to relax with some of the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered

Ryad Watier is simply perfect in every way. It is located on a safe and quiet street...only a two minute walk from the bustling Medina. Breakfast is delicious and abundant, but more importantly, served on the rooftop terrace with views of the ocean. It is the perfect start to each morning in Essaouira. The riad itself is stunning. The common areas are filled with thoughtfully chosen furniture and artwork; representative of the Moroccan culture as well as the owner’s passions. There is a library stuffed with hundreds and hundreds of books...something for everyone to read, or also just enjoyable to peruse through the massive collection. The rooms continue the theme of the riad with individually selected decor and artwork throughout. The tapestries and rugs have all of the rich colors of Morocco, contrasted with some nautically themed artwork to gently remind you that the Atlantic Ocean is only minutes away... it all comes together beautifully. The rooms are exceptionally spacious, meticulously maintained, and the housekeeping staff keeps them spotless, daily. The staff at Ryad Watier will make you feel comfortable from the moment you step through the big blue door. Jean-Gabriel and his staff are so welcoming and friendly that you just might end up spending more time lounging around the riad than roaming the Medina. Be sure to enjoy dinner at least one night in... Dunya made the most spectacular tagine, my best meal in Morocco. Thank you Ryad Watier.
