I stayed at the View overnight whilst in Agadir for business, the hotel is located on the beach in Agadir towards the Marina end. The hotel is fairly new (having previously been the ’Royal Atlas’ before covid) and has been fully refurbished with a modern stylish design and on-trend photogenic feel from the funky music paying in the (free) car park, to the laidback private area on the beach. Check in was quick and easy; the room was a good size (bigger that the standard size rooms at the similarly priced Sofitel’s further down the beach), nicely furnished, the balcony with comfortable seats was a nice spot to unwind in the evening. Good strong, fast Wi-Fi, large TV and electrical sockets plus both USB A and C sockets by the bed shows good attention to detail. Good sized bathroom with a nice hand/waterfall shower. Some complementary fruit waiting in the room which was a nice touch. Breakfast near the pool was good with a wide selection to choose from. I ate with my customers in the attached Buddha Bar, the entertainment, whilst not quite as polished as the more establish Marrakech venue, was still good fun, and the food was excellent. I didn’t have time to use the pool, but it looked nice and the gardeners deserve credit for the beautiful condition of the grounds. The one issue I had is that I was woken up at 7am by some random man walking through my bedroom; he did apologise and said he was hotel maintenance and would comeback later before making a rapid retreat back out of the room; he did seem genuinely surprised to see me, but even if the room was empty it should be good procedure to knock first just in case. On the other hand, I have no idea what maintenance he was expecting to do a 7am with no tools so the whole thing seemed very odd. I only lost an hour of sleep so no real harm done, but if it had been one of my female colleagues traveling alone, they would not have been so understanding of the situation.

We stayed at this hotel recently, and unfortunately, the experience didn’t start well. On arrival, a large group was leaving, which left the place in a mess and the reception area feeling chaotic. It wasn’t the calm, welcoming atmosphere we were expecting after a long flight to an expected 5* hotel. We asked for a drink on arrival many times, even when told you will be given a complimentary drink, but no one attended to us, even though payment for our stay was taken immediately as we walked through the door! Check-in was also frustrating — although we were repeatedly told our room was ready just minutes after 3pm, we didn’t actually get access until 5pm. Staff kept blaming delays on the large group that had just left, but as paying guests, that shouldn’t have impacted our stay. There were also a few housekeeping issues. We requested an iron, but the first one didn’t work, and it took over an hour for a replacement to arrive, which kept me waiting to get myself sorted. The bedding had stains, and we had to ask for it to be changed. Poolside service was also disappointing — I asked a staff member to adjust a canopy for shade for my daughters, he agreed but never returned, and I ended up moving it myself. That said, once the initial chaos settled, the hotel’s interior is genuinely beautiful and has a lot of potential. However, the overall experience was affected by poor organization and lack of attentive service. Additionally, we had to book two separate rooms as they couldn’t accommodate four females together, even though two were classed as children, which made the stay more expensive than expected. To end on a positive , being just a stone throw away from the beach and watching the sunset was beautiful- making location the biggest plus.

We stayed at The View Agadir and were disappointed with how our experience compared to what was promised at the time of booking. Our stay coincided with a large celebration and we were assured that all signature services and facilities would remain fully available despite a large group staying at the hotel. In reality, this was not the case. Room service was not operating, the pool bar was closed, and dining options were significantly restricted. We were also told we could not eat in certain areas due to the presence of the group, which meant our choices were limited in a way that was not communicated beforehand. When we raised these issues, the hotel response did not reflect our actual experience.
