Mumtaz Mahal

I just love Essouira! From the people, food, hotels and everything. Mumtaz Mahal was such a fabulous hotel i have ever stayed. Full of charms! Clean and quiet. Magical India touch. Guys go there please.

環境： 真的好像住進了宮殿，位置也很好，離港口停車場很近，非常方便 設施： 設施很好，尤其是空調很足！ 衞生： 很乾凈 服務： 因為趕不上早飯還給我們準備了可以帶走的食物，很貼心！

I wanted to treat my daughter to her first hamman so booked the upper price range hamman at Riad Mumtaz Mahal. After changing we were taken to the steam room which was filthy with black mould crawling up the walls. We were told to shower ourselves, had oil slapped on us which took roughly 10 seconds each and left for half an hour in a steam room listening to women chatting and laughing down a hall somewhere. Finally I called for someone. A lady turned up and told us to shower again, then another joined her and they both scrubbed us down with water, again this took maybe two minutes at the most, and then were told to shower again. We were then led out of the steam room, at which point I thought we were going to have a clay mask, or a massage or a deep exfoliation scrub as everything up until that point had felt like the preparation, but instead we were taken to our changing room and told to get changed. I was so shocked. And so disappointed for my daughter. When we walked out through the dark passage and massage room past the massage beds to the reception area, one of the girls lay on a massage bed staring at us. Reception didn’t care at all when I explained to them what had happened. My advice is avoid this place. What a shame. The rest of our trip to Essaouira was magical. It felt like a warm and inviting city, investing in itself, welcoming tourism, with so many kind and lovely people proud of their businesses, trading and offering their services. Riad Mumtaz Mahal is just out to take your money and rip you off.

A wonderful massage in the spa! My wife and I experienced two hour long massages in the hotel spa at very reasonable rates and would recommend them. The hotel is in the old city and has been lovingly restored. The staff in the spa were exceptional and very professional.

I did not stay at the Riad Mumtz Mahal but had massages at their Spa on five occasions. On 4 of those occasions I was massaged by Senna. I enjoy weekly massage and found Senna's massage to be the very best I have ever experienced. Senna is extremely professional, a brilliant masseuse and at the same time friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was done to ensure a relaxing and unforgettable experience, in fact, I have never felt so relaxed! I am also a keen runner with knee joint problems and I found that Senna's massages made my running much more comfortable. The Spa and Hammam/Showers are also scrupulously clean. I live in the UK and cannot wait to return to the Spa at Mumtaz on my next trip in November. I just wished I could have taken Senna home with me! :o)

The place has amazing moorish decorations. Room are very widw with high ceiling. Very impressive. The only downside was the horrible mattress. I woke up with back pain after few hours. My wife had the same problem. Uncomfortable bed.

I don’t think I’ve had a better first impression of a hotel. Once you enter it looks like a palace. Then our room just blew us away. Not just large, but also beautifully appointed; everywhere you look is a mosaic, lovely colours, amazing shapes, just stunning. Location is also fantastic. Inside the medina means just a few minutes walk to the main square and the souks. Or, if you want the beach it’s about a five minute walk to some lovely spots on the ocean. A substantial breakfast is served in the atrium or, as we preferred, on the roof terrace, with wonderful views. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the Mumtaz Mahal.

Centrally located, beautiful decor and wonderful staff

Beautifully designed, the staff were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you :)
