Solar de Mos

Bonne expérience avec quelques petits bémols.... L'hôtel est situé dans un quartier calme et résidentiel pas trop loin du centre et de la plage (moyen de transport conseillé) équipé d'une excellente piscine avec service bar et restauration. Ce n'est pas une très grande structure et c'est une bonne chose : la chambre est assez spacieuse tout comme la salle de bain bien équipée et fournie avec une bonne climatisation. Petit balcon avec table et chaises mais pas d'étendoir ou similaire. Bonne armoire avec minibar il n'y a pas de coffre dans la chambre TV pratiquement inexistante et mal positionnée wifi discret souffrant d'encombrement le soir lit excellent et confortable pas de prise de courant sur les côtés du lit mais plusieurs présentes dans la chambre bruits parfois étranges de la salle de bain égouts, petit déjeuner excellent et copieux, personnel professionnel, parking pratique pour les voitures.

This is our third stay at Solar de Mos, although due to Covid and my partner’s ill health we haven’t been back for a while. We missed it. Why is that…well it offers a friendly, relaxing environment, not too far, but far enough away, from the bustle of the town centre. The new wings offer excellent quality rooms which are well kept and very clean. And parking is easy outside in the side street. There is a small bar if one wants a night-cap after a dinner down town and the breakfast offers a selection including some hot items, which is fine in the climate. All of that is good but it wouldn’t make for a happy holiday if the staff weren’t friendly. And that is where Solar de Mos excels. From check-in to check-out everyone was kind and helpful, with nothing being too much trouble, and it’s the main reason we will continue to come here when next in Lagos. Thanks for making it a happy holiday. Obrigado.

A very clean and friendly hotel, in a quiet area. The gardens are well kept and lovely. Nice pool . Breakfast was all you could want, very nice food. All the staff were helpful and kind. 20mins walk to the shops. 5 euro taxi drive to the lovely marina area, which has plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. Highly recommend

Located in a residential area a 20 minute walk from the town centre and cliff top, this independent hotel provides charm, comfort and all at at a reasonable price. The buffet breakfast included an excellent choice of cooked and cold items that set you for the day ahead, and cooked snacks were also available at other times of the day. Our room with balcony was bright, comfortable and well-furnished. Reception staff were helpful, friendly and efficient. All considered we had a very enjoyable personal experience at a reasonable price.

Rather more difficult to find than I thought, but a friendly Supermarket a short distance away helped. A very nice Hotel, I parked right outside. I agree with the positive things said here. The staff were excellent, room very good and Bar/pool area splendid, (after hot biking day). Easy ride/walk into town (Lagos). Loved it. Really nice staff and clean. Would I return? Yes and book direct.

Attention to detail is the strenght of this small hotel. The staff is extra kind and welcoming, everything looks very clean and smell good. Lovely pool with free towels (many other hotels charge for towel rental), great breakfast served by the pool. Rainforest shower was great! The only disappointment was the lack of dairy free options at brrakfast, and the coffee machine is not the best (expresso is bad). 100% recommended

Reception staff are very friendly and welcoming, but unfortunately clearly lacked training from management as they did not know much about the hotel facilities. Pool was clean. Bed was quite comfortable. Breakfast was nice. The hotel was peaceful and quiet. The most shocking was the hygiene level from the cleaning staff. On day 2 we asked for a replacement tea cup when the staff came to do the cleaning. They said they don’t replace tea cups during a room stay, and that I can just wash it myself in the sink. I said I couldn’t as I had no soap to clean it. They said ‘no soap, only hot water, hot water good, no need soap’. I asked how they wash the cups. They demonstrated just washing it with water and their finger. They said this is how they clean tea cups when they clean the room. There was absolutely no way this was a misunderstanding due to language barrier (as management said it must have been) as they physically demonstrated it to us. We were shocked that they use a finger with no soap to clean cups, especially during covid times. And that asking for a clean cup was refused. This did not feel like the service of a 3 star hotel. Another problem - One of the reasons we booked the hotel was for the jacuzzi. However, the temperature was not warm enough. It was set to 33 degrees which is well below body temperature. Even though Portugal is sunny, the wind on the roof is chilly at 7pm and we were chivering so could only use it for a few mins. We asked the next day if the temp could be raised, explaining we were too cold. However they said the management/maintenence said it needed to stay at that temp. I guess to save money on heating. A waste of a jacuzzi. We could not use it again.

We have been coming here for many years now and could not wait to return after the forced covid restrictions on travel. The first thing to say is that this is not a "chain Hotel" it is a family business run by people who care for its guests. Nothing is to much trouble, just ask. They pride themselves on cleanliness effective hospitality. Accommodation is in three blocks. There is a large pool with terrace. Buffet breakfast is included with a large choice of hot and cold. Snacks and meals are available to order. A well stocked bar offers a range of drinks. There is a local bus service to the surrounding areas and a taxi into Lagos is circa 5 euros. A great Team.
