Hotels Near Forte da Ponta da Bandeira in Lagos

The hotel is located on a very quiet street in the city center. Simple but very practical. Breakfast is served in your room (covid reason) Good bedding and wifi works well. A small balcony decorates the whole. Good address to visit Lagos. But be careful not to stop. There are only 2 luggage storage offices at the beginning of the street (30m from the hotel) There are a few vacant places on the street...but the space is full, full Parking on the boulevard along the canal 600m from the hotel costs 12 Euros/day.

My wife and I booked 7 nights in Montemar and I must say it has been a delight. It offers what you can expect from a 3 star hotel. The reception and staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean, large enough and have a nice outside terrace. The WiFi works great so no qualms there. When we put the card out, our room was thoroughly cleaned. The only point I would improve is the breakfast area which is quite small. But all in all for the price a very good deal if you want to stay in Lagos.

From the very beginning when we arrived at this Hotel 23rd September 2022 the lady on the Reception was very professional and welcoming. We arrived just after 12.00 hrs and the lady advised that our room may not be ready but she still made a telephone call to housekeeping. Unfortunately it was not ready but we were able to store our cases and go and explore. When we returned back the room was ready, the porter took our cases to the room and it was perfect, room 31 overlooking the pool, very clean, modern and well equipped for our needs. The following morning the breakfast was amazing and I mean amazing I have never seen a hotel accomodate every taste it was absolutely fantastic. I cannot comment on the restaurants available because we like to eat out to taste the culture of the area we are visiting. The pool area looked lovely but we are not pool people we like exploring but that is our choice. We did on return from our days out sit on our balcony which was spacious and had a lovely view of the pool. In the mornings we did see how the hotel pay attention to detail with the cleaners out cleaning the beds and pool area. We did have a drink the bar area one evening which was reasonably priced and it is a lovely area to relax. I would have no problem in recommending this hotel to my friends and family in fact we are looking to book again next September.

Please be careful with what kind of accommodation you book, I made the mistake of booking a “twin room” for my elderly parents, it was the most basic of rooms and the only outside space was a tiny triangle of patio at the front of the flat (see pics) my parents had to ask for seats so they could sit out there. Again this is my fault NOT the hotel but I thought I needed to add this in for people who might be thinking of booking the budget room. Cons - The restaurant - if you want to eat at the restaurant you won’t be able to see what’s available on the menu until you have been seated, which can lead to embarrassment if like myself you're allergic to onions and everything on the menu seemed to contain onion so I had to get up in front of everyone and explain to the staff why I was leaving! I asked if there was an alternative which there was but was told if I wanted this I had to pay, having already paid for half board accommodation I found this to be very unfair as it’s an allergy not a choice.! I would suggest that in future to save any embarrassment you would put up the evenings menu where people can make a choice before entering the restaurant. The room itself was very basic no kettle meaning no options to make yourself a drink when wanted. The shower screen was leaking, had someone come out to fix this twice but it was still leaking and so had to keep putting towels on floor. No shuttle bus from hotel to town/beach as advertised on their website. Apparently it finished at the end of their season which isn’t what it said when I booked the holiday and the hotel was fully booked so really can’t understand why it wasn’t running. As other people have stated in these comments the pool chairs were filthy there were some really awful ones full of black stuff!! Pros- A choice of 2 swimming pools, the complex as a whole was very nice like a little village. The reception staff were very helpful and polite.

Resorts are good. But staff is not enough and also security of resort is quite loose. Everybody can go into the resort and no one will check.

The hotel is located in a remote area and is not easy to find by taxi. There is construction going on next to the hotel, so it is quite noisy and not many people are staying there. The advantage is that it is very close to the beach. Also, the check-in time should not be too late.

This hotel location is somewhat biased, it is not recommended to live, you can live in the west side of Lagos, there is more prosperous, the navigation belt driving at night is very biased. Our family is cautiously driving, but the hotel itself has no problem. Very good, drive to the big supermarket and dock restaurant area in 5 minutes, but this is not too developed, so it seems very biased

We are regular visitors to lovely Praia da Luz. This was the first time at this hotel and we were very happy with our stay. We had premium sea view room with lovely views over the pool and out to sea. Room was large and plenty of storage space, the best we’ve had for a long time. Fridge worked well, as did the air con. Free safe and pool towels. Comfortable bed. Room cleaned to good standard. Large and fluffy bath towels. On the minus side- The safe was quite small, but just about managed to fit in our iPads. It locked with a key as opposed to digital locking, and the room key was rather cumbersome too. Didn’t like the plastic shower curtain. Breakfast was fine. Not a huge selection, but adequate. The bread rolls and the cakes were delicious. Great pool area, never a problem getting a sun bed at any time of day. Hotel Location very quiet and peaceful, but it was a steep climb up from the restaurants, shops and beach (bearing in mind we’re in our 70’s with bad knees). But that wouldn’t put us off staying there again. There is a bus stop outside hotel, but out of season the buses stop quite early.

Nestled in a serene location, this hotel proved to be the perfect haven for families seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating escape from the demands of the work world. From the moment we arrived until our departure, we were enveloped in a tranquil ambiance that allowed us to recharge and reconnect with our loved ones. One of the most remarkable aspects of our stay was the prevailing sense of calm throughout the entire property. It was evident that the hotel had meticulously designed its spaces to create a soothing atmosphere. Whether we were strolling through the beautifully landscaped gardens, lounging by the pool, or enjoying a quiet meal in the restaurant, we felt an overwhelming sense of tranquility that instantly melted away the stresses of everyday life. The hotel's commitment to creating a peaceful environment extended to its accommodations as well. Our room was a true sanctuary, providing a blissful retreat where we could relax and unwind. The tastefully appointed interiors, plush bedding, and thoughtful amenities contributed to a restful atmosphere that allowed us to get a restorative night's sleep. We woke up each morning feeling refreshed and ready to embrace the day ahead. What truly set this hotel apart was its dedication to catering to families. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every member of the family felt welcome and comfortable. From engaging activities for children to family-friendly dining options, every aspect of our stay was tailored to our needs. The hotel even offered serene spaces for parents to relax while keeping an eye on their little ones, striking the perfect balance between tranquility and family-friendly amenities. Furthermore, the attentive and friendly staff added to the overall sense of relaxation. They were always on hand to offer assistance or provide recommendations, and their warm and genuine hospitality made us feel like valued guests. Beyond the hotel itself, the surrounding area offered plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities and exploration. We took advantage of the hotel's proximity to nature, embarking on leisurely walks and hikes that allowed us to connect with the peaceful surroundings. It was the ideal way to escape the hustle and bustle of the work world and reconnect with nature.
