I had a lovely stay at La Smala! I’m the beds were comfortable with a large secure draw under to lock your luggage away. The staff made the stay however as all of them were so kind and friendly, going above and beyond for anything I needed. Especially Mehdi in on the rooftop bar! The breakfast was also delicious. The showers were a lot nicer than I expected, very private and always clean. I’d definitely come back to stay here if I visit in the future.

The view over both beaches of Essaouira and the City is great! The Hostel is in the middle of the Medina, the Restaurant is great (except for some wind). The vibe was amazing and we got to meet lots of travellers in the same situation.

Perfectly yet discreetly located, Giraffe was a pleasant place to stay and relax while in Essaouira. The staff were all busy and cheerful, all more than happy to pause and chat for a while. Bed was actually HEAVENLY. Crisp sheets, comfy mattress, and a quiet shared room of 4. Waking up to a delicious breakfast being cooked was delightful, and the positive and friendly ambience on the rooftop was a top place to start the day, and end the night too!

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.
