Ain Legdah Holidays from £1,062

The property is beautiful. It's a sprawling resort with areas outdoors in the woods near a cascading springs that I enjoyed sitting at. I liked the lobby, the swimming pools and the exercise room. Checking in was easy. You're sat in the very nice lobby and you're greeted with a nice apple lemon ginger juice while the check in is proceeding. The staff is very nice, attentive and professional. The room is very nice, nicely decorated and the linen is crispy clean white cotton. The appetizers in the lobby were very good. But the drinks are crazy expensive. There were a few glitches: my minibar was empty. This is an expensive hotel. When I brought this issue to the management, they offered to fill it. But it did seem to me as if they were cutting corners. Also, my room was dark. The lighting was dim and not enough to read. It was a room to just retire to and go to bed and watch TV. It's unpleasant to not have enough light in a room, especially if you want to read. In the daytime, the room tends to be dark in the part away from the window. When I brought this matter to the management, they offered to upgrade me to a suite. However, the sitting room in the suite was even darker while the bedroom was brighter. I thus declined the upgrade. The lobby is very nice but it too needs a bit more lighting in some spots. I had to look for a corner with enough light to read the menu and see my food. The drinks are crazy expensive. But overall a very nice stay.

I can confidently say that it was single handedly the staff, Ahmed and Anas that made our stay at the riad - exceptional!!! The rooms need an uplift, but any small shortage in the amenities was compensated by the exceptional attitude of the staff! Excellent location ! Excellent breakfast! The guide that they recommended for the Medina was great as well! I would only recommend that they upgrade the place with some quality amenities (hand soap, shampoo conditioner, extra pillows, brighter lighting) and they can easily give all the other riads a run for their money! Highly recommend it!

Great place to stay, equiped kitchen, large living room, nice bedrooms, we would have been happy to stay longer here

Definitely no where close to a 5 star Riad more like a 2 star. The rooms smelled putrid. Food was terrible and not prepared by someone who knows how to cook. Construction going on in main courtyard right below our room for hours including drilling, sawing, and banging - we could not nap. Night before was soccer game where locals came to watch Morocco play in African Cup - TV was in main courtyard of Riad and right below our room so again unable to rest/sleep due to screaming and tons of cigarette smoke. Reception never answered the phone - no one was in charge at the hotel. General Manger was not available despite repeated requests. Owner coincidentally was there one evening and told us that he couldn’t do anything because the general manager is in charge. This place is an absolute scam and should never be billed as a 5 star hotel when there is no service whatsoever. We couldn’t even get extra hangers. Towels and Linens are old and smelly and there are no feather pillows. We want our money back!”
