“Fabulous hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 27, 2013

This hotel is brand new and is next to the older Sofitel which is currently being renovated. It is at the end of the 'strip' so is quieter and more private than any of the other hotels. Our accommodation was really luxurious, with a separate bed area, dressing room, beautiful and spacious bathroom, and a fabulous living area with comfortable seating and dining table. It was really beautifully decorated. The highlight was the terrace, with its own Moroccan style double bed and plenty of other seating, overlooking sea and pool. However, even with a smaller room, the hotel has plenty of outdoor spaces where you can eat, sit and read or sunbathe. The pool area is dotted with big Moroccan beds with removable canopies, with luxurious reclining sunbeds and with comfortable outdoor seating--all of really 5* quality (and not too crowded together). The beach area is also fitted out beautifully and the quality of is far beyond the other nearby hotels. There are plenty of staff throughout the hotel so there is never any waiting if you need something. We found that they were exceptionally friendly and very well trained so that the service was top notch. The decor in the reception, corridor and bar areas were a little glitzy--dramatic rather than cozy--but this is just personal taste. They were certainly done to a very high standard and with a sense of style. The breakfasts were marvelous! Our room was fantastic. Fast broadband throughout, and at no extra charge. The level of service, from the moment you were met at the door, was exceptional.

Room Tip: Choose a junior suite.

“Splendid stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013 via mobile

Splendid stay in a lovely setting
The hotel is set in beach side location and the grounds are impeccable, very well looked after.
Our room was on the first floor with a pool and distant sea view... beautiful. The decor very contemporary and clean and the tea making set in the room was a must as it got quite chilly in the evenings.
The choice of food in the Le Market restaurant is excellent, fresh and tasty, the breakfast is just as good!
The food in the fine dining restaurant Le Palais Du Jardin was an anticlimax, we expected it to be well above the quality and flavours we were already used to in the Market restaurant but we found the food quite bland and uninspiring.
Staff in the pool area are attentive and very friendly while staff in other areas are a bit hit and miss but that said, we've got no complaints.

“Nice cosy Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

The rooms are well designed, also the rest from the hotel. We love to be arround the pool on the romantic beds. the rooms are clean and you get a refill for the mini bar every day. the buffet is in a good qualitiy, there are two buffets.

one mixed one and one with traditionell marrocian food. They both good, but we feel that the price with 350 DH too much without drinks. The Breakfast Buffet is very good, a lot of fresh things, different kind of coffee and freh juices are avaible.

You have Wifi in the whole Hotel for free, whats really good, also the TV Programm is with al lot of channels, like a few german channels.

There are two problems, one is that a lot of the people only speak french or bad english. that makes it not so easy to order things. sometimes you have to wait for things you order a long time or they forget it. the tables are clean very soon, even if you are not finish and you are still to catch new things on the buffet. that should be better to organise, also that not all the things you need are on the table, like butter or salt and pepper. The workers are very helpfull and friendly, in most of the time the understanding is the problem.

the other thing is, that the corridor outside from the living-rooms are not clean the whole week. we think for a 5 star resort it should be.

In total we think its one of the best resorts in agadir, but there are still things to make better.

“Fantastic upmarket hotel - was hard to leave”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2013

From the moment we walked in to the "scented" lobby, to the time we left, we really felt we were in a very upmarket hotel. So much so, that our clothes were really not suitable!!
From check in (hot towels, mint tea) to our room (moroccan treats, bottle of red wine, complimentary soft drinks) to the bathroom (hot towel rail, great magnifying mirror, L'Occitane products, soft towelling robes, coloured lit rainfall shower etc.) and the bed (comfortable) we really enjoyed our stay here.
Yes, breakfast was a bit hit and miss, but you're on holidays so you really are not under pressure for time, and the variety of food on offer was always good. I think it depended on what section you sat for breakfast, but when we were nearer the food end, we had full/better service than when we were seated nearer the entrance. Small things like napkins and cutlery missing were irksome, but nothing that if you got up and went to another table, you could get yourself.
The hotel is far away from the main "strip", but this makes for a very pleasant stroll along the seafront or the promenade home, in the evenings.
We only ate breakfast here so I can't comment on dinner etc. but the restaurant looked extremely upmarket - and as I said, we didn't have suitable attire.
The bar was strange - lots of curtained off areas, that would make it difficult to see if there was anyone else there at all - more like an airline lounge with curtains, than a bar I think.
Staff seem to speak French most, if not all of the time, and while I have very good French my husband doesn't, so he really found it hard to order a coffee or even water. When they saw he was not understanding what he said, they would speak English, but it took a while for staff to understand that this was needed rather than optional. Also, in the spa the staff really struggled with English, and I struggled with French words for beauty treatments, so that could be improved upon.
Worth a trip once in your life though!
