Hotel unfinished. Work being carried out whilst there. Facilities advertised not available or even complete. Some staff were excellent however the managers were not. Appalling in fact. I feel Like I have spent a considerable amount of money on a service that was lacking in almost every department. Rooms were clean, but not stocked with the necessities.

Staff are lovely, but the place needs a serious renovation. The food is cafeteria food at 4 star hotel prices. Worst pizza I have had in my life. Mattress must be decades old as it was very uncomfortable. Not worth the price.

Sofitel Royal Bay Resort - A five star experience
We stayed at the Sofitel Agadir Royal Bay Resort from 24th Sep to 28 Sep and had a fantastic time. This was made possible by lovely hotel staff, in particular, Sara, the Customer Relations Manager who upgraded us to a magnificent room which was thoroughly cleaned and properly set up, baring in mind that I had an 18month old and I am very strict with hotel cleanliness. The staff on reception, at every restaurant were very friendly and welcoming, never hesitated to help and go out of their way to make our stay as comfortable, enjoyable and as safe as possible. We thank them dearly for making this happen. For our fellow travellers who are reading this review rest assured that the staff are friendly, hotel is of a very high standard, free WiFi everywhere, restaurants are fabulous, very child friendly, the pool area is of decent size, kids pool always had warm water, security is paramount, checks at gates and entry, hotel has a VIP night club for party goers, shisha spot for casuals and varied entertainment everyday of the week, Moroccan night of Fridays not to be missed. Overall we had a five star service and we thank the hotel staff for this. Finally, couldn’t finish without mentioning chef Zouhaer Hicham who does one of the best tagine dishes I have ever eaten, you have to taste it to believe it, so if you are still in doubt, rest assured that Sofitel Royal Bay Resort will give you a five star service. Many thanks for all who made it happen

2..3 star service marketed as 5 star. Made to feel like a prisoner by security every time we entered. We had water and food confiscated by security (apparently it’s prohibited for our safety as they claim they would be responsible if we fell sick from eating outside food on their premises - nothing to do with the hotel’s own food availability at massively inflated prices). Security demanded to know our room number so they could search our room for more food. This caused about €40 of food to spoil. All this policy guaranteed is that we would not eat in the hotel’s restaurants. Every time we came back into the hotel the security would demand our room number despite having seen us leave the hotel earlier. Showing a room key card wasn’t enough. Housekeeping comes to the room not less than 4 times throughout the day to do the job that would normally be done in one visit in any other hotel. One visit to collect towels, one to make the bed, one to place new towels and one to driver complementary water and a chocolate. Some of these were routinely missed (the water and towel delivery) and needed to be chased multiple times per day. Housekeeping staff generally had a hard time communicating in English. The room cleanliness was poor. Vents were choked with dust, the bathroom fogged window to the bedroom covered in water streaks. Dirt in corners of the room and windows, on top of door sliders. There was minimum attention to detail when it comes to cleaning.

Fantastic service with excellent hospitality on the day of Eid by Yussef (Concierge) who made us feel at home and even offered us complimentary breakfast. Spacious pool area and good swimming facilities for all ages. Great location set on the beach front and great beach cafe. Decor in the rooms in need of an uplift. Service and quality of shishas require major improvement.

Disappointing service
Check in was very slow compared to other 5 star hotels. Our room was specially decorated on request which was a pleasant surprise for my wife. They also upgraded us to a pool view room. However the room had a foul smell and had many defects. After complaining to the manager she apologised and said she would change our room and upgrade us again. The room change took best part of an hour even though I was told 10 minutes. Our new room was better. I was informed I would also receive some complimentary snacks which never arrived. I requested an iron 3 times which finally arrived over 12 hours later. Our first evening was wasted waiting to move room and receive the iron. Breakfast was nice with a large selection, however the service was poor. I would not recommend this hotel due to its poor service. Nothing like other 5 star hotels I have stayed at

She made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible after slight problem with room service. Every day she spoke to us and sent flowers and sweets. Also the guy called Omer from house keeping was great too. He was very friendly and helpful. Over all good stay with 4 young kids.

I booked a suite and discovered it’s just 2 connected rooms , very strange and layout !!!. Front desk staff very ineffective and slow in addressing guests needs , I’m not talking about my case only but many other guests as well , many times the front desk left empty and simple issue like faulty room keys replacement takes about 15 min without even a word of apology!!! Staff and their management are inexperienced and not around in case of need . I tried to have breakfast in the open air and they make it a big deal that called for special management! exemptions !!! Although I’m paying for my breakfast , they said you can have it either in the room or in the buffet restaurant which was closed by that time !!! The hotel atmosphere is very dull and boring , I stayed for 5 nights and they never brought a band or a Moroccan singers like other hotels !! It’s very un satisfying experience for a 5 star hotel . I will seriously consider not coming back to this hotel

Relaxation weekend
Fantastic hotel ; excellent staff ; great food. The private area of the beach is a roped off section so you still have locals around. Family friendly hotel a lot of kids. A little Far from where the action is (30 min walk) but it’s great if you want to go relax. The disco is dull. In the evening they transform the main lobby into a cafe with live music and shisha which is absolutely divine Overall great for couples and families or a getaway relaxation weekend - not for solo travellers if you’re looking to meet people
