Location
Located only 1.9 km from the Orientalist Museum of Marrakech, the comfortable Hostel Essassi 23 Marrakesh hotel offers Wi-Fi in the rooms and a car park. Thanks to its central location, this Marrakesh aparthotel is within reach of the ruined Badi Palace, which guests can visit to explore the history of the area.
The hotel in Medina with some of Marrakech's historic sights such as Médersa Ben-Youssef, Museum of Marrakech, Jemma el-Fna, Mosque de la Kasbah, El Badi Palace, Bahia Palace and the Saadian Tombs is around a 5-minute ride from the Cyber Park and approximately a 10-minute ride from such shopping venues as Max & Jan. Standing just 300 metres from the Mellah, the Essassi Marrakesh is not far from Jemaa el-Fnaa Square. Feel in total harmony with nature by visiting the traditional medina Le Jardin Secret Garden, within a 2-km distance of the accommodation. This Marrakesh hotel is also within a 4-km distance of Marrakech train station, and 15 minutes' driving distance from Menara airport.
The 6 rooms include a sitting area equipped with a washing machine to ensure guests' comfort. There is also a private bathroom. You'll find nice touches like a bidet, a separate toilet, and a sauna, along with hairdryers and dressing gowns to enhance your stay.

Review by hotel critic
Review of Essassi Hotel, MarrakechDuring my recent stay at the Essassi Hotel in Marrakech, I found myself reflecting on the balance between luxury and value. The hotel is set in a centrally located area that allows for a delightful eight-minute walk to the main square, enveloped by the vibrant culture and charm of the city. The common areas reflect splendid Moroccan design, and the terrace offers a nice sitting space to enjoy the fresh air, though an element of sunshade would enhance comfort during hotter hours. Despite a 1:00 am arrival, the hotel seemed unprepared, with the entrance locked and minimal signage. After a challenging search, I located my room, only to discover cleanliness issues, particularly with the floor. The road-facing location made nighttime rest difficult due to ongoing street noises. Though the price was favorable, the condition of the room fell short of expectations. While the hotel offers a shared kitchen and tea/coffee facilities, these amenities were not accompanied by the level of service I anticipated. The Essassi serves as a budget-friendly choice, albeit with a need for improvements in upkeep and hospitality that would elevate the experience.
