L’accueil par le personnel. Le système de navette pour se rendre en ville et aux activités. Le petit déjeuner avec un très large choix. Les différents espace de détente, de très belles vues tout autour de l’hôtel.

The villa with private swimming pool
Breakfast didn’t meet 5 stars hotel experience , lack of cleanliness.
Slow unprofessional service everywhere within the hotel.
Very late check in, we arrived at the hotel around 2pm and checked in 5:30pm .. disappointing due to unavailability of bed sheets that was sent for laundry purposes to the city and wasn’t delivered back to the hotel on time according to the manager at the reception desk 🤥.
Bad quality coffee and service at Le Tiki So Bar
private lunch experience at our villa a big failure. Unfortunately, the staff were unhelpful including the chef who refused to prepare our choice of meals from the offered menu , and worst they want us to go for the experience at the hotel restaurant instead, ridiculous!
No facilities , except the golf experience which I’m not interested in .
Big swimming pool was closed for some reason.
Housekeeping staff will never come to clean your villa , change towels or even provide you water .. you have to call!!!
Worst experience I’ve ever had.
Reception desk was insane , the moment I stepped in I see employees shouting at each other , then unsatisfied guests complaining .. big mess !!
Pricy for no reason.

The decorations were beautiful with a mix of old and new. Very good security around the property. Loved seeing the various animals getting along with each other.

Staff were very accommodating, especially Mohamed who went the extra mile every morning at Breakfast, a lovely young man.
The grounds are vast and well maintained, great for walks.The Hotel was only a £5 taxi ride in to the Medina, loads of fab restaurants. There was also a free return mini bus from the hotel, which ran on the hour till 6.00pm,.. It was a great experience, very cultural, safe, relaxed and friendly in the Medina.. I notice on some reviews clients write the hotel wasn’t 5*, well, for the price it was pretty damn good.! If you want a good 5* you have to pay for it..
on the whole this was a great experience, I’d recommend this hotel to a friend! The staff at the hotel were incredibly polite and helpful at all times.
nothing really it was really good

Bed was big and comfy,
Nice kids club outdoor space.
- It is not at the level of a Sofitel
- the hotel is not well maintained
- the staff at breakfast were running all around in the first day, second day was better with the presence of a manager.
- plates and glasses were smelly at breakfast
- orange juice was horrible , like if it was prepared the day before and left outside
- the outdoor space is beautiful but not well maintained, things are broken and left there, pool is not heated...
- the beach is far from the hotel

beautiful location and hotel.
they didn’t tell us when we booked that the hammam area was closed which is a bit naughty as we were really looking forward to it. they were doing work to the reception area so was a horrendous grinding noise when we arrived that was offensive. They ran out of towels by the time we arrived for 3pm check in…pretty basic error for a 5 star hotel.
4.0
there were two pools but one of them was quite green and quite dirty also. there was a buffet for dinner which wasn’t great quality and not good value for money. I also did not feel well the day after eating the food and continued to feel unwell upon my return home.

Great setting
The property lacks maintenance. The current status of the hotel is not compatible with the Sofitel brand. It lacks basic maintenance and care. Feels abandoned and carelesse. There are even grafiti on walls

Great location, pool. Spacious rooms with great view. Staff willingness to help.
Buildings lack basic maintenance, should even be renovated to match current/modern look and feel. Staff inability to be effective, lacking basic training, professional attitude and behaviour, poor fluency in foreign languages (we tried both French, and English).
8.8
Beautiful grounds and wonderful view of the sand dunes and ocean
The staff were amazing and went above and beyond to help us out with various queries and requests
Great place to spend a few days relaxing in a lovely city
It was a little bit tired around the edges but I guess you could expect that from a place that is over 10 yrs old
A little bit away from the old town of Essaouira so need a car to get around if you stay here

View, Location
The hotel is not maintained anymore. Broken tiles, fractured walled/ground, falling paint, sand in the swimming pool, broken lamps in the room... we paid more than 200 euros for the room and you would expect a Sofite hotel to be spotless. It was not!

it was peaceful and had good views. it had the potential to be excellent but needs some TLC
it was very shabby in places
9.0
The Hotel is exceptional and the facilities are wonderful.
The bed was lumpy and had a strange mattress protector in the middle. The prices for Food were OTT, it was like paying European prices in Morocco. I think if the prices at the hotel were reduced for food we would have eaten at the hotel all the time. A cup of coffee was the equivalent of 4 Euro which is extortion it doesn't even cost that in Dublin. Especially considering you can get a coffee for 10dh outside the hotel. The fact that they only provide 2 pods for the coffee machine is also outrageous even in lesser star hotels you get sachets of Nescafe.

Hotel itself is great, nice room with a view to the golf course and the ocean, 2 big swimming pools. You can see that Hotel is not new but was really nicely done.
Hotel brought a piece of cake for my birthday.
Breakfast was quite nice.
Perfect place for a romantic escape and golf players.
Service is the worse part:
1. Reception: we arrived and a person who checked us in made the whole procedure so long, it took around 10-15 mins.
Told us first that breakfast is not included in the rate, though it was and I had to ask him to double check the information. It all looked very unprofessional for a 5 star hotel.
In the morning we go to the gym and they informed us that they can open the gym early hours if we need that. We asked to open the gym at 7 am, receptionist was not event at the reception desk, security didn't know how to open they gym and started asking each other and it took extra time to wait so they could understand what to do and then we had to go in the dark with the light of our phones.. which is also not a 5 star experience
2. Guest service: it is impossible to reach anyone by the phone, no one is picking up. I had to call room service so they could transfer me to the reception as I couldn't reach anyone. If you ask to bring anything to your room it takes forever.
3. Housekeeping: We stayed 3 nights and each time they cleaned our room, something was missing, either not enough towels, or now shower gel or no toilet paper or something left dirty.
4. Staff by the pool: one of the day they were setting up dining table behind our sunbeds, 2 persons from hotel staff started screaming at each other right behind my back, I turned and looked at them, they saw me looking at them and kept screaming at each other and throwing table cloth in a very rude manner, so I had to raise my voice and ask they to stop, totally no understanding of how they should behave in front of the guests.
In general I would say that hotel looked understaffed in housekeeping as I saw them running around corridors and other staff is not well trained to provide 5 star service.
