Super lovely Riad with the best service! We had the room at the top - almost a private space to our own, and loved the surrounding views from our balcony. Hot tub was a plus in the cold weather. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay - wished we could have stayed longer!

環境非常幽雅，早餐豐富，就在麥地那城邊，位置非常好找，離停車場很近，步行到港口20分鐘，服務員熱心的幫忙搬行李，酒店裡還有一衹大烏龜，孩子非常喜歡。

A charming little riad with a fountain and garden open to the sky in the middle. The rooms are simply but elegantly appointed. The host brought up our bags and carefully explained everything about the room and procedures, then refused a tip saying it was his pleasure. We relaxed in the roof top hot tub and watched the sunset before retiring for the night. Our room had a roomy deep soaking tub, lots of hot water and fresh rose petals strewn all around the bathing area. A super comfy bed and delicious breakfast with real croissants. What more could you want?

Beautiful riad, friendly staff, a lovely stay! I stayed in three roads on my recent trip to Morocco and this was my favorite. Good location, very welcoming staff, atmospheric common areas, comfortable in every way. I had a very nice room and fine food in the riad restaurant, and I even got to enjoy some Casablanca beer there (most restos have neither beer nor wine). I would have been happy to stay longer and if I go back to Essouaira I would make a point of staying here again.

We have just spent a week at this stunning Riad, we took up 5 or their rooms, each one absolutely beautiful. The staff were so attentive, the rooms cleared to perfection daily, lovely meals in the morning and evening. The Riad is in a great position, a short walk from the hustle and bustle of the Port and markets with a fabulous roof top terrace to enjoy your mint tea and nuts - if we are ever in Essaouira again we will definitely be staying at Riad Chbanate.

Extremely beautiful hotel, with well appointed bedroom suites! Enormous marble baths, clean towels daily, rooms cleaned to a very high class. Breakfasts were fantastic from fresh juices, to crepes, eggs of any description, croissants, yoghurt and fruit. Great Moroccon Tagines, Cous Cous Royal, plus suitable food for the children too. Helpful and caring staff. Nothing was too much bother! A peaceful rooftop terrace for some peace and quiet too! Would return again and again!!

One of the best places we have ever stayed at in our 30 years of travel. Beautiful decor & furnishings, very clean and welcoming and friendly staff. Relaxing and stylish! In a lovely, quaint seaside town. Finished our trip in Morocco here, staying 4 nights and what a way to end a trip in such a colourful country. When relaxing in the afternoon soothing music would play in this Riad which we enquired about and still listen to. Had dinner here the 1st night which was good. Breakfast was fantastic. Would definitely return to stay here.

We loved our three night stay at Riad Chbanate just relaxing in Essaouira after four nights in Marrakech, On our second day we didn't even leave the Riad but just stayed home and chilled (especially easy to do as our room (overlooking the terrace) was spacious enough to have a sofa and also had a private balcony. Breakfasts were really good - albeit the same every day (fresh fruit, moroccan pancakes, crepes, croissants, toast and eggs cooked to order). The staff were helpful - and arranged for us to have breakfast slightly earlier than normal the last day as we had a morning flight.
