You know these hotels, that you cannot imagine yourself coming back to the city without staying there? that was Dar Afram for me. Abdul, the owner, made me feel extremely welcome and we had some interesting chats. The location is great, a lot of love has been put to the rooms and one of the highlights is definitely the terrace, where one can chill away the day. Thank you Abdul, I hope I’ll make it back to Essaouira and to Dar Afram!

Very good location in a quiet area and a few minutes walk to the beach. The rooms were clean and the common areas (pool, kitchen, chill area) were also clean and welcoming. Staff were very kind and friendly. Would recommend, great value for money!

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.
