Lagos Avenida Hotel

Had the most amazing stay at Lagos Avenida Hotel for a girls getaway trip. The hotel is newly updated and perfectly located across from the main entrance to the marina where all boat trips take off. Easy walk into main part of town for beaches, meals and shopping. The restaurant on site is perfect for a fancy dinner when you don't want to go out. The included breakfast is not to be missed—lovely selection of pastries etc, and made to order eggs and Prosecco! A special shout out to front desk star Patricia who helped us every day pick which beach to go and help make dinner reservations. She would do research for us and update us the next day. We would have been lost without her! If you can- upgrading to the water side views would be worth it. We had a city view which was nice, but would have spent more time on our balcony had we had water views. The roof pool and bar is perfect for late afternoon rest before heading out into town again. Will recommend to anyone I know visiting in the future!

My wife and I are here on our anniversary. We first booked an airbnb type of hotel and it was too remote from everything and didn’t have a concierge so we were a bit panicked. Fortunately they gave a full refund and we immediately booked with Lagos Avenida Hotel and we couldn’t be happier! First we met Isa at the front desk and she couldn’t be sweeter and more accommodating with suggestions of places to eat and activities to do during our stay here in Lagos. She welcomed us with a sweet message and bottle of wine for our anniversary. The rooms are modern but super cozy and intelligently set up/the shower is awesome. The bed is SO comfortable. The location is perfect. The rooftop pool is so nice with views of the entire Avenida and water. And the breakfast is amazing too. Also in the hotel is a Michelin recognized restaurant that we haven’t yet tried but plan to…We couldn’t be more happy with the last minute decision we made and would HIGHLY recommend this hotel!!!

We stayed here for 10 nights and couldn’t have wished for a better hotel.Excellent central location minutes walk to harbour bars and restaurants and same distance to old town.Rooftop pool and sunbathing area very nicely decked out and the rooftop bar is reasonably priced and we would recommend the Avenida burger which is large enough to share.Room was spacious and very comfortable and serviced daily if required.The breakfast is phenomenal, all the usual fresh fruits,yoghurts,cheeses,cold meats,pastries,cakes and bread but the cooked breakfast dishes were as good as a breakfast can be, omelettes,French toast,pancakes,eggs Avenida were superb but there was also sirloin steak and lamb chops cooked to order that were purely delicious. The hotel was great, the amenities were great, the location was great,the staff were great, especially breakfast staff, but the breakfast was absolutely superb. Highly recommended by 2 rather fussy Scottish guys.

I have stayed her numerous times. I always find it excellent. Hospitality is not as easy as it looks and all the staff manage to do it effortlessly. The breakfast crew really are a ray of sunshine. The breakfast is really good and plentiful too. Looking forward to returning soon.

I loved our stay here. It was clean, beautifully decorated, the staff was friendly and helpful. I loved that they had a pool and the view was really nice. It was close enough to walk everywhere we wanted to go. They had a full bar as well which was fully stocked with lots of great options. My only “complaint” would be the bathroom.. it was a glass box that might as well been in the middle of the room being there was no privacy when using it but it was and wouldn’t be a deal breaker for me to come back again and again to this hotel when in Lagos. Our outdoor area was large and got great sun but also had an umbrella to block it which was also nice. The dining options at the restaurant were wonderful and there was parking very close by for us to go in and out with no issue.

Gorgeous views, clean environment. Lovely staff. Tasty food. Highly recommend. Didn’t stay in the hotel but paid €35 to use the pool for the day. Although we were told multiple times the wrong price, we still felt it was a fair price. We would definitely return.

Recommend this hotel - why? Best of both worlds as opposite the marina, minutes walk from Lagos town and walk in thai massage places, 10-15 mins from the beach and hotel boasts views from its rooftop bar and pool. Felt very relaxed here and an hr in an uber from Faro. Hotel gave us amazing restaurant recommendations, enjoyed the best ice cream at Gelicia & a burrata salad on the marina. Lovely clothing shop on the marina too vs the clothing places in town. Breakfast impressive, esp the white chocolate porridge and lush shower gel/handwash in bottles in the room! If i was to pick fault, it would be the lack of bathroom and sink in room. Staying with a friend not the most private, but was fine and the rooftop bar cocktails need more choice:-) Staff welcoming and helpful, ironing board arrived in mins to the room too. Portugese people just make you feel looked after and welcome ❤️

My wife and I spent two nights here in late June. Excellent location across from the marina and in walking distance to the largest beach, to the Old Town and the marina of course. Parking was a short walk away and not too bad finding a spot.||Excellent breakfast as in many hotels. The pool on top was nice to have, though not a ton of chairs, but it still didn't pose an issue.||The room configuration was flat-out bizarre. You open the door to the room and you are staring at the toilet (frosted glass) and shower (UNFROSTED glass). So, if you are in the shower and someone comes to the door (I had requested an iron, and someone brought one up), when you open the door, the person at the door would literally be face to face with the person taking a shower! And if you use the toilet (which echoes loudly, so hopefully people sharing a room are quite close with one another!), you need to walk around to the other side of the room to wash your hands in the sink! It was so strange. Not a dealbreaker, but who the heck designed these rooms?? The shower water pressure was good. The AC was cranking, and the balcony facing the marina was nice. But overall, the room was a little crammed, not to mention laid out in such a strange way.||And now my criticisms. When you arrive at a hotel and it's too early to check in, and so you leave your bags in the lobby while you go out for the day, you kinda expect to have your bags waiting for you in your room when you get back to the hotel. It's something I'd expect at one of the more expensive hotels in town. But I guess there is no bellhop to do that. ||Similar to how there is no bellhop, there also is no true concierge. My wife and I wanted to go to one of the other beaches that was a short drive away. It was 11am. I asked the nice women at the check-in desk if we would have any issues getting chairs and umbrella at that beach, and she didn't think so. She then brought up an internet live webcam that showed half of the chairs being empty. Great! But then we get there and all of those still-empty chairs had been reserved!!! Now, one would say, "How would she know that?" Well, she SHOULD know that, as I am sure that happens every single day at that beach. This made a major negative impact on our whole day. Europe was in a heat wave and it was VERY hot not having an umbrella at the beach. Had we known this, we would not have gone to that beach, or maybe we would have stopped at the supermarket to buy one. Maybe she will read this review so she can advise guests better the next time. It was very disappointing.||Overall, a nice place to stay. Just be aware that chairs and umbrellas sell out FAST at the beaches during the summer. You can purchase a cheap umbrella at the supermarket to play it safe.

Kind of mixed on this hotel. Convenient location, clean and modern but awkwardly designed rooms. The shower/toilet area is on the other side of the bed from the sink. It's a novelty that soon became a minor annoyance for my wife and I, especially at night, when we were trying to minimize movement and noise. And with little room for luggage, they've managed to design bonus tripping hazards into the layout. The staff was polite but stiff, usually speaking in a corporate hush, although the young woman who checked us in projected normally in exquisite English. There was some nickel and diming and enforcement of petty rules. Drinks and snacks provided in the room turned out not to be complimentary as they were at other nice hotels in Portugal. Yet no price list was posted in the room, causing an unwelcome surprise at checkout. Another surprise: Our take-out meal in the lobby on a quiet holiday evening was interrupted by a request to eat in our rooms. There was no "for future reference" warning. We packed up our half-eaten dinner and took to our rooms, feeling like naughty children being disciplined. Later in our stay I asked if I could grab a quick glass of already opened champagne still on ice in the breakfast dining area and surely destined to be poured down the sink. But breakfast had ended so the answer was, well, you know.

Booked a few nights at this hotel but unfortunately missed the train to Lagos and had to cancel last minute. I'm writing this review solely based on the amazing customer service I experienced. When I called to cancel my stay the person who answered was extremely helpful and did the best she could to help me catch a different train and sort through the transportation issues I was having. Unfortunately I was still unable to make it to Lagos with the ability to make the most out of my short stay and ended up canceling. They were kind enough to waive any charges, despite me canceling very last minute. I truly hope I am able to travel to Lagos one day so I can fully experience this hotel.

I called this dish 'cute' and they took it as a compliment. I think there were 3 kernels of corn in this ceviche. For the price point you can almost buy your own fishing trawler. Tasty, but not mind blowing.

Nice new hotel in a fantastic location - ten minute walk from the train station and in front of the bus station. It fronts the bridge and local marina. They have a soft opening currently so everything is available except for an on-site restaurant that should be open later this Fall. The check in was fast, the common area on the main floor was modern and chic. Rooftop pool was amazing with fantastic views of the marina and beach! Great place to spend time when the weather is warmer. The rooms are a decent size for Europe and they have a large window along with balcony with a table and two chairs. The one main issue is with the shower and toilet - they are both surrounded by glass!!! The only privacy you get in your room is a curtain to pull across to form a "virtual" bathroom. Also no where to hang your wet towels!!! Great rate obtained - suspect it's because of the off-season.

The hotel is located in the main avenue facing the river and the sea, is next to the transportation, only 10 min walking to the beach, 5 min from the city center Perfect !! The rooms are big and sunny ! the staff is very very helpful Very good ! Recommend
