The hotel in general
Riad Baladin:
In the heart of the Médina of Essaouira, close to the beach, this beautiful Riad offers you a splendid view over the old town till to the sea.
This oasis offers 6 rooms (4 double and 2 suites/triple) with ensuite bathrooms in a typical Moroccan style, combined with a contemporary design.
Breakfast is served from sunrise till brunch-time on the roof-terrace which benefits from a panoramic view over the old town to the sea – in the evening you can enjoy the Apéro (with the home-brewed „Baladin“-Beer) at sunset, and if you’re still in the mood, you can also visit the Massage Saloon, before retiring to bed…
The lounge in the basement offers free internet access with WIFI and is a pleasant place to chat with other guests!
The hostess of the Riad is Nicole Pavlin – a Swiss who is fluent in English, German, French and Italian.
Hotel location
The Riad "Baladin" is situated in the nicest part of the old town of Essaouira, in the district of „la Skala“, just a few meters away from the sea and a couple of minutes away from the main square and port. There is no traffic allowed in the „Medina“.
Essaouira is a very romantic harbour-town on the Atlantic-coast (180km to the west of Marrakech) with white houses, blue shutters and many narrow and tiny alleys.
Thanks to this splendid back-drop there has been many movies made (for example „Othello“ from director Orson Welles and „Kingdom of Heaven“ from Ridley Scott). Since 2001 the city has been registered on the list of UNESCO, world-heritage sites.
The flight companies atlas-blue (Royal Air Maroc), easyjet, Ryan Air, Thomson Fly and British Airways fly regularly from Europe to Marrakech. The prices depend on the day of departure, the average price for a return-ticket: 300€ incl. taxes.
From the airport of Marrakech, the taxi will take you to Essaouira for 880 Dirhams (80 €) for 2 persons.
During daytime till midnight, there are also buses ("Supratours" or "CTM") for 50 Dirhams/person.
To come to Essaouira (2.5h/180 km) one can take a Taxi/Minibus or there is a possibility to rent a car (PW/4x4). Buses are driving regularly (Informations at the train station or directly at the company Supratours or CTM).
Service at the hotel
Please see our reviews you can find in the internet, thank you!
Gastronomy in the hotel
The traditional industry of fishing is now secondary to the booming tourism industry but is still an important source of income and one can enjoy eating freshly grilled fish down at the port.
The market "Souk" with all the colourful textiles, aromatic spices and attractive living-accessories, is calling you to make a Shopping trip.
And the numerous coffee-shops and restaurants in the alleys and on the roof-terraces are the best place to just watch the world go by and relax.
Sports, entertainment and pool in the hotel
Essaouira is, because of it’s frequent wind and beach, a well known place for Surfers (best known for wind surfing and kite surfing!!). Slightly further south down the coast, the beautiful nature-reserve and beach "Sidi Kaouki" is a peaceful place to swim and sunbathe.
We do organise also horse-riding trips through the forest and at the beach!
The highlight of the year is the gnaoua-music-festival, which takes place every year in June with more than 100'000 festival-visitors! (25.-28.06.2009)

Riad Baladin is located in the Medina of Essaouira, and is very Central, but still quiet location. In immediate Nearby there are numerous shops, restaurants, bars (with live music), as well as access on the wall with a grandiose view to the sea. The Riad itself is very tastefully and with attention to detail equipped. Everyone, which also for interior fittings intersted, will come here to its cost. Very nice is the rooftop terrace with views over the roofs of Essaouira and to the sea. The service also left nothing to be desired. We were gree... Read more
