Heure Bleue Palais
L'Heure Bleue Palais is a prestigious address celebrating Essaouira's rich past at the crossroads of African, European and Arab civilizations.
Built into the walls of the medina, The Heure Bleue Palais is the most luxurious riad in Essaouira and an ideal base to explore the town and surrounding beaches. The 33 rooms and suites are set around a lush central courtyard, the heart of the riad, where a fountain cools the warm air. The hotel has cleverly preserved the character of a traditional Moroccan Riad, whilst embracing the influences from African, Moorish, Portuguese, English and oriental styles within the interior design.
Full of colonial charm with rich finishes of velvet, brass lamps and wicker chairs. The bedrooms are extremely comfortable and spacious with striking Moroccan floor tiles, marble bathrooms and walk in showers. All rooms have good WiFI, TV with English channels and room service.
The shaded patio is the ideal setting for breakfast and the cosy Moroccan Dining Room offers traditional cuisine along with fresh seafood from local shores.
Just off the patio is the Billiard Room and Home Theatre that features classic films each evening. The authentic Hammam is an experience not to be missed, with natural products leaving you rejuvenated and, their hidden gem, on the rooftop is the outdoor pool and roof terrace providing sweeping views over the medina and Atlantic Ocean beyond.
