Blood stain and cigarette burns on the bedding. When asked reception if we could change room we were told none is available. We asked for bedding to be changed and were told it can happen at 18.00. We asked at 16.00. When we came back from dinner at 21.00 nothing was changed. The hotel is pretty run down. Hotel is not very clean.

Great location right next to the Medina. But beyond that, I would NOT call this place 4 stars. The bed was very shaky for 2 people, the bathroom was quite dirty, the flooring was all tile, the building is quite dilapidated. I had to place tissue paper in the door to stop it from making noise due to the wind and the toilet ran all night. This place should be 3 star max.

The property is very old and not renovated. There are no stairs. I booked a suite. It was sooo dirty, the balcony like never opened. No internet, phone, no cooler, I had walk down 3 floors to go to front if I just need an extra towel. It was a horrible experience and no even said we are sorry.

The hotel is in a great spot. Close to the beach and the medina. I’m sure it will be a great place in the summer. We went just before new year (winter) and was really quiet. The hotel overall is a bit tired.

The room was nice. Clean. Great breakfast buffet and location as on the beach as right beside the medina. Only thing I did not like was the rooms were hot even if cool outside. If no air conditioning in the room it would be a good idea to have windows or doors with screens to allow cool air to circulate in the rooms and still allowing your guests to feels secure with sleeping with the windows or doors open or invest in air conditioning units in the rooms. It was difficult to sleep comfortably at night as the rooms were too hot and not in a millions years would I be crazy enough to sleep in a room in a hotel while leaving the doors wide open.

We were severely disappointed with this hotel. For the rate we paid, we were expecting a clean, comfortable, well kept hotel. Unfortunately upon checking in, we were directed to our rooms which were out the back, not connected to the main hotel. They more resembled a motel. The rooms we clean, but aged and outdated. The gardens and paths are unkept with weeds and grass growing from all areas. The external condition of the hotel looks nothing like the photos. The building is run down, and needs a lot of work to bring it up to scratch. We stayed one night and cancelled the following two which we had booked. We won’t be recommending this hotel.

The hotel is very well located, the staff are friendly and professional. Special attention and care by the waiters at the breakfast room. The super bungalow with view on the pool and garden is an excellent choice.

Had a nice stay at des Iles. A bit worn down, and the pool was waay to cold but the location is perfect, everything was safe, the breakfast was ok and the value for the price was perfect. Helpful English speaking staff who gave us useful tips. Recommend this hotel!

My wife and booked a long weekend at the hotel. The position was excellent being next to the old town, the beach and nearby restaurants that served alcohol.The hotel itself had obviously seen better days. Whist the location and the size of the rooms was fine and everything worked it was looking very tired and in desperate need of some modernisation and decor. Breakfast was very basic and if you arrived later there was little left. There was also a nightclub attached which was very noisy so light sleepers be prepared.That said in the chalets away from the main hotel it was not too bad .Overall for the price we paid we could not complain..

Hotel Des Iles is a fairly basic hotel which is starting to show its age but it is in the perfect location to go to and from the medina for meals and shopping, for this reason alone we wouldnt hesitate to stay here again

Great location if you want to be out of the busy city. About a 10 minute walk to Jemaa El Fna. Good buffet breakfast, decent restaurant, and friendly staff. Also very safe as the hotel is surrounded by a wall and has security at the front gate. Overall I very much enjoyed the stay.

Charming former Grand Hotel close to the Medina, harbour and beach of Essaouira. The room we had was very comfortable and clean with a view to the pool. The bathroom was also in pleasing condition (In contrast to the statements in other reviews). A cozy bar with a terasse and a great ocean view offers a good selection of drinks, including alcoholics, e.g. excellent local wines). We liked the style of this hotel very much and would come back any time.

I have stayed at Hotel des Iles for more than 20 years and this was the first time in the main building. Rooms had been remodeled, new decor, new locks on door, great bathroom-- esp. big tub and excellent shower. Room of sufficient size for comfort and mobility. I saw the rooms around the pool that I always used to stay in and while larger, due to wet season it was far better to stay in main hotel. Restaurant was expensive and we ate there only once as a result; breakfast was fine with combination of Moroccan and Western breakfast choices. Excellent for convenience to beach and to souks and medina.

Having travelled extensively we have been in one and two star hotels across the world much cheaper than this who have always managed to cope with vegetarians. In this hotel we were offered cheese omelettes every night after explaining consistently. For some reason even the salads were gardnished with lumps of meat or fish. The same plate of little dry cakes were offered for the sweet every single night. No cooked breakfast was available except pancakes and hard boiled eggs. Never enough cutlery, bowls, cups, cornflakes, anything!!!! The least efficient we've ever been to. Also the rooms reminded us of Butlins Cabins with no character, no working shower, doors that wouldn't open and plastic chairs to sit on. Finally, 'sea view' is across a major road in the far distance and could only be seen on a ladder.
