Gresham Hotels - accommodation in Lagos

This was our first trip to the Algarve and we booked at the hotel based on the very positive reviews. Our booking was for a “standard room” which turned out to be a handicapped/accessible room. Not an issue since the room was spotlessly clean although it was apparent it needed some TLC given the sections of vinyl flooring that were delaminating and the grate in the shower drain that kept dislodging. Other aspects were a bit telling like poor internet connectivity, chintzy towels, lack of wash cloths and the liquid soap dispensers that never seemed to work properly. The very nice breakfast was buffet style (self-serve coffee and juice machines) but with various made-to-order items included. Access to the beautiful Porto de Mos beach is only a 8-10 minute walk although it does require travelling the streets around the hotel (being mindful of the cars and motor bikes whizzing by) and negotiating a rather steep and crumbling stone stairway to beach level. The latter was not a problem for us but older guests or those with mobility issues should be advised. Much of this probably sounds like nitpicking but we had just come from Lisbon at another (admittedly more expensive) four star hotel and the contrast with the LAH was rather stark. I would say the Lagos Atlantic is a solid mid-tier hotel for the value-conscious traveler.

Beautiful Hotel. Very clean and modern, staff was very helpful and polite.

Breakfast was wonderful rooms were comfortable and clean. Would stay again!
