This is a really nice hostel/small hotel for travelers in Essaouira. Taz is a brilliant host and so are the kind and generous ladies serving breakfast, which, by the way, is quite good for the price. I would love to return and experience the amazing "vibes" and sense of community that so many others have praised Dar Afram for online,... More

i love this riad - authentic moroccan in every way with beautiful design, great food and wonderful music - the bar area is great and reasonably priced - the food is superb and beautifully prepared by moroccan women in the kitchen and the owner Taz - makes everyone feel so welcome More

The fact that we were not the only ones we know who have extended their stay in Dar Afram says a lot about how warm and welcoming the place is. Obviously Essaouira is a great place to relax for a few days, but if we had not had such a great time in Dar Afram we would have spent the... More

I originally went to Essaouira for three nights, and ended up staying in Dar Afram for nearly two weeks. I extended my trip in Morocco whilst here and this place was the main reason I did so.

Dar Afram is one of those hotels/hostels that make you feel at home right from the minute you walk in regardless of the sort of traveller you are.

Planned on blowing through Essa for a day and after spending the night with the afram crew I stayed for 3 months. What a killer place. Brilliant music, tasty dinners. Ultra relaxing chilled staff which seem to attract like minded travelers. If not three months than at least drop by for a night. More

The hotel california of essaouira got me stuck for longer than just a week. Breakfast on the roof is the morning prayer buts its the nighttime dinners and music in the berber room that gives dar afram its magic.In a well designed and sophisticated arab arty atmosphere of intimacy the home cooked food breaks barriers in getting together and jamming...
