Southern Atlantic Coast 4 Stars Hotels

"As it was our first time in Agadir we didn't know what to expect.We had booked bed and breakfast so we could get out and about through the day and at night. The hotel chain.Barcelo,was familiar enough to us and seemed reasonably priced. We were greeted by a lovely lot of smiling welcoming faces at reception and the concierge service. unfortunately our room was not ready until near 4 pm so it was a bit if a wait. The room we had was ok. Comfy beds, Air Con not a thing when we were there not sure if it gets ramped up in hot weather? we were surprised to have been given all inclusive wrist bands.It was not mentioned it was an upgrade .We perhaps thought it an oversight? We did enjoy that part of things but generally we thought the food a bit same old same old? Not all food was hot at a buffet style restaurant area... we'd say the lunch seemed a little nicer than evening.Mist of the time was spent looking for cutlery and napkins! We had lunch out and had 4 evening meals outwith the hotel. it's not really an area with British pubs and restaurants so you still have to look about for the type of food you enjoy. Although looked like a few bars selling alcohol were close to the hotel all the music was more Arabic/Moroccan so it didn't really entice us to go in which was a bit disappointing ?Agadir isn't quite catering for Brits abroad just yet.The hotel entertainment was not something we tended to hang about for at night.Overall great to experience Agadir."

"Amazing hotel "

"We would not return to this hotel. After arriving on Saturday, I began vomiting on Tuesday and my partner on Wednesday. We talked with other guests that were also sick after eating at the hotel restaurants. Having now searched for instances of food poisoning at this hotel, we can see this wasn’t an uncommon experience. Most of the buffet food is bland and some of it horrible, tasting genuinely off or unpleasant. The food is poorly labelled, with dishes under the wrong stickers or stickers missing. As a vegetarian, there aren’t many options - when I chose a cheese salad, it turned out to have some kind of squid in it. After asking a waiter, who asked a chef, they directed me to another salad, which had pieces of chicken in it. Some of the staff are lovely and friendly, but others are very grumpy and make you feel like you are an inconvenience. Our room was cleaned well but the rooms are dated and in need of renovation - there is mould in the bathrooms and a slight smell of damp. The private beach is a small area combed back from a stony beach with lots of plastic and (friendly but slightly concerning) stray dogs. The grounds of the resort itself are beautiful and the pools are lovely to swim and lounge by."
