The View Agadir

The hotel was beautiful and in particular the pool area was very beautiful. We originally got allocated a room at the side near the front street , unfortunately this was extremely loud at night so for our first 3 nights we got very little sleep as we had to leave the door open due to the air con being centrally controlled and the rooms were very warm . Finally we got a room change which was wonderful. The staff were wonderful and extremely friendly. The breakfast was wonderful . Great gym . I would definitely return in the future . We didn’t visit the restaurant in the hotel as they are quite expensive but found 4 wonderful ones within 5 min walk from the hotel .

It was my first time in this hotel room was amazing food was amazing waiting time was long because I came from other hotel at 12.30pm room was not ready so I was tired waiting till 3.00pm I order chicken tajeen was nice and burger meal was very nice food room was amazing but I don't recommend the view as the sea is not clearly visible like atlas amadil hotel has only thing was nice everything was brand new in the room that was standing out

My wife, 6yo daughter and I stayed for a week over New Year. The hotel itself is high-end. Lovely pool, immaculate, well maintained and appointed. People mention the quality of the breakfast, which is excellent. Fresh and lots of choice. Rooms are a good size and the hotel's location is perfect for eating out (some of the all inc. hotels further up the coast are a good 30/35 min walk to restaurants). The only thing that stops this really being a 5* is the service, particularly at the front desk / over the phone. We're not fussy or demanding, but we noticed that multiple times over the week we would be made to wait for hours. For instance, on the first day bedding for our daughter was forgotten. We called, but it was some 6/7 hours later it was finally brought after 3 chase-ups. Same with needing more hangers, another day only 1 towel for a room of 3. Dinner reservation made in person at reception forgotten (luckily we checked on the day at the actual restaurant and they said always go to them directly). Individually they were all minor things, but collectively it was frustrating and it was noticed by a few guests we spoke to. Pool service for food/drink is slow. Had to ask for a menu 3 times, an 1 hour wait for a bottle of wine, for instance. Having said this, the staff are very friendly and on the whole you get a sense they are trying. But right now the service doesn't reflect the price, which is among the highest in Agadir. We ate at the Italian once. It was nice, but not worth the cost. Try the Thai Jade round the corner. Still had a lovely time and I would recommend The View - but just don't expect 5* service.

For a good value New Year break in the sun, The View in Agadir takes some beating. The good stuff: - Huge breakfast buffet. Lots of fresh bread and patisserie, good coffee, plenty of stations for omelettes, yoghurt, fruit. You name it. Excellent. - The staff. Lots of staff and all eager to help. Special mention for Jalal at the gate leading to the beach for his sunny greeting every morning. - The grounds are very well kept, and there are lots of pools, though we spent most of our days on the beach in a private area. Nice sunbeds. - The rooms: clean and spacious. Big, comfortable beds. Cleaned and refreshed daily by the diligent cleaning team. - Cedar Bar: good cocktails and other drinks in the evening. Massive screen for Premiership matches (but with the sound off to keep it all classy!) - The poolside restaurant, La Delie. Great casual dining options for daytime. Good flatbreads, pasta, burgers, salads and really excellent pizza too. It closes at 6pm though which is a shame. Could do better: - Evening dining options. Limited to a high end Moroccan restaurant and a fancy Italian. The cuisine in the Italian is particularly fussy - like the chef is more keen on showing off than giving customers a great meal. Given the limited options locally they could and should be able to deliver more accessible cuisine which is authentic to their roots. - Communications: we were there over New Year and enjoyed the brilliant fireworks display on the beach nearby - but we only knew about that by accident. From the reception to the concierge, the hotel could be much better at communicating what it does and what you can do locally.
