Very pretty and arty hostel, very well located, central but quiet. Room was a good size (we got a private room - sofa downstairs and bed upstairs). Very clean. Breakfast was nice, I liked the homemade jams, olives and the chats with other guests! It's a little haven :)

You know these hotels, that you cannot imagine yourself coming back to the city without staying there? that was Dar Afram for me. Abdul, the owner, made me feel extremely welcome and we had some interesting chats. The location is great, a lot of love has been put to the rooms and one of the highlights is definitely the terrace, where one can chill away the day. Thank you Abdul, I hope I’ll make it back to Essaouira and to Dar Afram!

This surf house is SPECIAL: fantastic view of the Atlantic Ocean, very nice and helpful staff, delicious dinner (to be booked in advance at the morning) and super breakfast full of typical moroccan products. The room was big and super comfortable, with a magnificent terrace in a wonderful and peaceful place. The surf house is on the top of a small hill with the ocean view and 5 mins by car far away from the beach of Sidi Kaouki and 20/25 mins drive from Essaouira.

The staff was ao nice to me and my friend. We discussed, we laughed and we were very much well taken care of. My room was super clean with a private bathroom (shower and wc), sheets were neat, i had enough not to feel cold and i had my little window. I also had acces to a kitchen where i could cook and enjoy the terrasse during the lovely nights of Essaouira. Strongly recommend!

the beds were soooo comfortable and the place was beyond clean. I had a huge dinner one night with everyone together and ended up meeting a couple of decent guy and had some great conversations. After that met some austrians with whom I played some crazy card game with, was alot of fun. The dicount on the surf rental gear from the brother of the manager was very practicle and used the offer a few times. Breakfast was also good, though could be a bit cheaper.

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.
