Hotel was very spacious, huge pool, nice size bedroom, staff was amazing. Hotel has breakfast and restaurant onsite for dinner. Also have a bar and sitting area to enjoy the pool. Very quiet. We were able to book Uber or taxis directly to hotel to the old town which was about 5 mins car ride. Walking distance about 15-20mins.

Just fabulous. We stayed four nights in one of the villas, which apparently had been recently remodeled. Everything was shiny and new and sparkling clean. There was a small, well-outfitted kitchenette, though we didn't use it to cook, just for coffee/tea and dishes. We loved the back patio area and our unit even had a small deck on the roof! Each villa has its own parking spot too, which is great. The service at the restaurant and pool bar was top notch, all the staff were so friendly and kind. We paid for breakfast two days, dinner one night, and ordered food at the pool bar for dinner another night, and everything was delicious. The pool is enormous and there are plenty of loungers, although it would be nice if the umbrellas could be moved or even just tilted as the sun moves. I wish we could have spent more than one afternoon lounging out there, but our itinerary was packed. The deposit for the pool towels is a bit steep, but you get your money back when they're returned. I would come back to Lagos simply to stay at Ancora Park again, we enjoyed it that much!

The property was very warm and comforting and villa we stayed in was spectacular. It was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was great, a lot of variety all of which tasted great, a very nice start to our days in Lagos. Definitely would stay again, in fact our experience at Ancora Park is a big reason why we are thinking of coming back to Lagos!

Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was comfortable and pool area very nice. Breakfast buffet was delicious. I would only suggest that at the breakfast, the staff might clear the used dishes from the table, a minor issue but would be appreciated. Otherwise everything was perfect, thank you for a wonderful stay 💖

Just okay

Had higher expectations considering the ratings on line. But here’s where they do not warrant a 5 rating. We had a one bedroom suite with kitchen setup. Sofa wax stained, no tv in bedroom, you had to supply your own toilet paper and coffee. Okay maybe the coffee but toilet paper? Been to many places over the years and this was a first where we had to buy our toilet paper. Bed was very poor quality, need their mattresses updated. Beautiful pool and pool area but the loungers are in terrible condition. We tried the buffet dinner on our last night and although great variety, food quality is subpar.

The property is beautifully landscaped and the pool is the gem of the property. The restaurants had fresh healthy and a variety of delicious options. The cocktail menu and wine selection was excellent. The staff from the room attendance, servers, bartenders and hospitality staff are outstanding which made our stay at Hotel Âncora Park very comfortable and enjoyable. Also, we liked that it is very family friendly with a pool for children and changing tables for families with infants. Highly recommend this hotel and the restaurants. We definitely will return and bring our entire family.

We’ve stayed previously and the rooms have had a really good refurb since then. Pool area and bar has also been massively improved since 2018. New hotel block has been built and it’s more a 4* now. Only issue was construction work daily from 8am till late at an apartment block right next to our bungalow, we were block B. Constant angle grinding and drilling, such a shame but once the building is complete, you won’t have an issue, other than being overlooked from the balconies. The area has developed with lots of new building so not a quiet as we remembered, but location is convenient for the local beaches at Praia Mos and ponta de piadade. Centre of Lagos is about 20 mins walk. Overall, would recommend if staying in Lagos
