The staff were super helpful & it was relatively cheap with free Wifi & a fantastic hot & cold buffet breakfast & sparkling wines for breakfast. It has an outdoor saltwater pool that was very busy with families. I didn't go in. But the Mediterranean here is very cold surprisingly however lots of people in it. Water temp was 69*F . I would definitely recommend this hotel. We had a fab stay. Fridge & safe in room along with balcony where we could look out onto the side view of the sea. All in all a super find.

It was cooked in a rich tomato sauce with white wine, tarragon, and bay leaves. Everything was cooked to perfection. The tuna was tender, and the potatoes were soft and buttery. The taste was similar to an Italian Cioppino. The octopus had a nice grill to it, but unfortunately it was really overcooked; very chewy. We ordered the carob chocolate cake and hazelnut cake and they were moist and tasty, not too sweet. The service was great and the view of the beach was pretty.

NICE HOTEL ACROSS FROM THE MARINA IN LAGOS, PORTUGAL…read more========================================== I found this hotel on my own after doing some research because my son and his wife wanted to go to the Algarve for a few days. My husband's cousin who lives in Cascais and speaks Portuguese booked it for us. The price was very good. I think we paid about 650 euros for two rooms for two nights for my son, daughter-in-law and then my husband and I. I liked everything about this hotel except our view in the rear of the property from Room #207. Our balcony basically faced the bus station, but we were also on the end of the building so we had a peekaboo side view of the marina. It was a comfortable and quiet room at night, so that was good. I would highly recommend booking a room on the side that faces the marina in one of the upper floors. They have a great balcony spanning half of the hotel on the fourth floor. It's a great place to relax at the end of the day. Bring your own beverages and snacks. They also have a small pool area up some stairs overlooking the bus station. They have a small bar by reception and the prices are good. You can get towels for the pool or beach, but you need to leave them a 10 euro deposit per towel. That makes sense or people will forget to bring them back. Easy access to activities at the marina. We booked a boat/kayak tour Ponta da Piedade Caves which was a lot of fun through Days of Adventure. It was a short trip on the water which is nice because I get seasick. I did take some Dramamine which helped too.

Spotlessly clean, updated, and quiet!…read more The room is a ten minute walk from the railroad station, which is how we arrived and departed. Each room has a balcony with two chairs and a table. We chose a room on the west side to avoid the sun while enjoying a morning cup of coffee. It was fun to watch the beehive activity of the live market on Saturday morning. Although the bus terminal is behind the hotel, we couldn't hear anything from there with the door closed. In the evenings, we enjoyed the shade on the roof top patio. They had multiple seating areas, loungers, and a pool. The views were remarkable. Staff members were all respectful, kind, and friendly. The breakfast was complete, including pastries, fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, beans, cheeses, cold cuts, juices, and coffee. We chose this hotel primarily because we took the train to Lagos, and didn't want to walk far. But it was also an easy walk to the old town and to the beach.

Don't expect to have a coffee maker at the standard room. You will need to upgrade room and pay extra $10/ night for a coffee machine. Really? This is definitely ridiculous. Once I complained at the front desk, there was nothing that they could do. Be careful for booking in advance as well. I paid a lot more if I had reserved the day of my stay. Once I explained that this would compensate for the coffee maker, I was ignored. This NH hotel should be disqualified from their hotels.

This was an awesome location centrally located on the beach…read more The checkin process was very easy and we had a car, so parking in their basement garage was the way to go at 15 Euros per day. The service staff was very friendly and our room was perfect each time we returned from the beach or our day trips. There is a pool which quickly fills up, but the beach is a 5 minute walk so not sure why so many want to be around the pool. We enjoyed the breakfast in the morning with the amazing options. Fresh orange juice machine for the best flavor. The downstairs bar had live music while we were there and enjoyed relaxing. The price was very reasonable for a beach hotel and we would easily return in the future. Make sure you check them out and enjoy!

There are some noticeable differences between Conrad Algarve and other Conrads I've visited (Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul, Singapore, etc.), all of which have fantastic, over the top breakfast buffets, lovely exec lounges, wonderful spa facilities, and (daily) afternoon tea offerings. I believe the main difference boils down to resort hotel vs city hotel, bc resort hotels typically don't have an exec lounge, although some do for VIPs (if your room is located in the VIP corridor, tower, etc.) Overall, an excellent stay! Conrad Algarve opened in Sept 2012 and apparently was the first Conrad to open in Europe. After 12+ years, it appears most of the property is still very well maintained, and most (but def not all) staff were very friendly. BIG SHOUT OUT to Miguel & Jose for being super helpful in and around the lobby/front desk, and of course the lovely Claudia & Mafalda at Luoro breakfast every morning + Loro Lounge Tea Experience! Muito obrigado for the super relaxing stay! Until we meet again! =D

From the check-in process all the way to our checkout early morning on departure day, we were made to feel welcome and the hospitality was superb. The rooms are warm yet modern enough and you melt into the bed. Chats within the app were addressed within minutes, the thermal spa was a welcome amenity at the end of the day, and the overall ambiance of the entire property was just fantastic. We will really miss our stay and experience at the Conrad Algarve.
