What to look for in guest houses in Essaouira
Small, owner-run properties: more personal than a hotel, more serviced than an apartment. You usually get local knowledge you cannot get anywhere else, and you usually give up the things a chain guarantees — a 24-hour desk, a lift, air conditioning in every room.
Before you book, check
- Reception hours. Many guest houses have no night staff and need an arrival time in advance.
- Whether breakfast is served and at what time, which can be a single fixed sitting.
- Whether there is a lift, if you have heavy luggage or stairs are difficult.
- Whether cards are accepted. Smaller properties in some countries still prefer cash.
Tell the owner your arrival time and keep them updated if it changes. At this size there is often literally one person with the key, and turning up unannounced at 23:00 can mean a locked door.
Worth it for: Travellers who want a place with a character, and destinations where the hotels are all chains.
