Hotel was nice for a moderate price.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. There were no cups supplied near the bread coffee machine. Scrambled eggs were cold. Great variety of fruits, vegetables and juices.

Cons:

There were no charging outlets near the desk. Door stop in the bathroom was in a horrible place, stubbed my toe twice on it.

Pros:

מלון מפנק ברמות! אווירה נעימה ושקטה, צוות אדיב ושירותי, הכל מאוד נקי ומוקפד. יש המון פעילויות לאורך היום, בעיקר נהנינו מההופעות החיות בלובי המלון בערב, ממש חוויה כיפית ומיוחדת!
עיסויי הספא שבחרנו גם כן היו מעולים.
ארוחת בוקר מפנקת וברמה גבוהה. גם ארוחת
הערב מצוינת.

Cons:

בחדר הכושר לא היה מזגן, היה חנוק מאוד.

Pros:

- Super Frühstück
- Sehr sauber
- nicht weit zum sehr schönen Strand

Cons:

- sehr kaltes Wasser im Pool.

Sehr angenehm
Pros:

Die Sauberkeit und das sehr freundliche Personal

Die Klimaanlage in unserem Zimmer war sehr laut. Die Flure nicht klimatisiert.
Das Bett war der Seite zum Bad sehr durchgelegen und die durchgehende Matratze störte.

We enjoyed our time in Lagos
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent, the staff were extremely courteous and helpful, and the hotel itself was spotless and the housekeeping was excellent also

Cons:

The lobby was uncomfortably hot in the evenings with no air conditioning in the lobby area. We were a little disappointed with our room as we paid for priority location with sea view and our room was on the first floor which does not give a clear view of beech but I suppose it done what it said on the tin.

Pros:

Breakfast has no coffee service at the table, which shouldn't be the case at this level, and the pastéis de nata are tiny and taste frozen. The buffet itself is large and has real variety, and the pizza is good. Desserts are forgettable. On seafood night both the lobster and the prawns were tough and chewy — quantity over quality.

Cons:

We booked this on the strength of its rating and its billing as a high-end property. Having stayed, I don't think either is deserved. It's a solid three star experience wearing five star packaging.

Honeymoon: nothing at check-in. Over the following days things did appear in the room — a bottle of sparkling wine one day, a plate of chocolates the next — but with no note, no card and no explanation. The plate wasn't even covered. The intention was there; the execution wasn't.

Service is where it falls down hardest. We were on half board, which includes no drinks at dinner. Fine in itself, but the way it was communicated to us by one waiter was borderline rude, and his offer of "a free water" was delivered as if he were doing us a favour. On other nights we did order drinks: the cocktails are poorly mixed and the house wine tasted vinegary. Elsewhere, English is limited and basic courtesy is inconsistent — asking for a shaded table one morning got us a curt response rather than any help.

Reception and concierge have no flexibility at all. We couldn't get our nights registered on the IHG loyalty programme, there was no late checkout offered, and the concierge team had no useful recommendations for the area.

Cleanliness was the biggest disappointment. There seemed to be one housekeeper covering our entire corridor, and more than once we found her hair on the floor beside the bed. Cups weren't changed. The room was never properly maintained. In the restaurant you have to hunt for a clean plate or a clean glass.


Rooms: no amenities provided on arrival, no slippers, everything on request — and when it arrived, the quality was poor, the sort

Très mauvaise expérience !!
Pros:

La propreté et le personnel

Cons:

La mensonge de la présentation , pied de mer alors qu’il est loin de plus d’1 Km de la mer !!!
À la plage , une fois arrivée après une marche fatigante sous le soleil et la chaleur ; toute les places sont réservées d’avance !!! Et payantes .
L’établissement est situé dans un désert , loin de tout !!!!

Man kann in einem 5 Sterne Hotel in Portugal an der Bar keine Flasche Wein bestellen. Ich hatte die großartige Auswahl zwischen einem Glas Rot Weiß oder Rosé. Noch nie erlebt

Average
Pros:

Clean overall and nice location

Cons:

The rooms were oddly setup. The bathtub was right beside the bed with no segregation. It was as if the bedroom and bathroom were one big room overall
