Hotel Riu Palace Tikida Agadir

We stayed here at the Riu Palace Tikida Agadir for the first week of November and were very happy with our choice of hotel. It was beautifully designed inside and out, our room was clean and spacious with everything we needed. The staff were so friendly and helpful, from the reception team, the animation team, bar and restaurant staff and the cleaners. We were particularly impressed with Sousou, Sarah, Abdul and Brahmin from the animation who would always find time to come and chat to us. And also Nadia who looked after us with drinks at the pool bars. We ate at all 3 à la carte restaurants, and they were all good. I’d recommend booking them as soon as you arrive to avoid disappointment. The Marrakesh and Krystal are beautifully designed rooms, and the steakhouse is in the poolside restaurant that is used for lunch. It was great these were all included. The main buffet, breakfast and lunch, was fine, but it was nice to be waited on in the à la cartes. Buffet restaurants were as expected in an AI hotel, a decent choice of food, we always found something we liked. My only disappointment was the salad bar and fresh fruit was more limited than I’ve experienced elsewhere. Bars were good, although the cocktails indoors were freshly made and far superior to the ones by the pool which were ready mixed. Wine and beer were very good, as was the coffee. Pool area was lovely, well maintained, clean and always plenty of sunbeds available. These were extremely comfortable with thick padded cushions. In fact all seating inside and out was very comfortable, lovely sofas and chairs to relax in in all areas. I’d also like to comment on the interior design of the hotel, particularly the reception area and à la cartes, and even the artwork in the corridors was absolutely beautiful. Location is great. It was easy to walk along the promenade to the marina and see more of Agadir. There’s also taxi rank just up the road from the main entrance. We went into the town a few times, rode the cable car up to the Kasbah, went to the Argan oil factory, and also had a meal out one evening. I’d definitely recommend getting out and about as well. Thank you to all the staff at the hotel. It was our first time in Morocco and we thoroughly enjoyed it, and hope to return.
