Lagos de Cesar Hotel

Building work in progress at the back and side of hotel. Food basic and uninspiring, have had far better in 3 star. But the hotel was very clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Santiago small quiet and would definately go to that area again

the hotel overall was very good. staff helpful and very friendly , maid service could not be faulted rooms cleaned every day and towels changed daily. nice big rooms , nice large balcony we were lucky to overlook the sea and pool, but all around the area at side and back of hotel building work was in progress work starts at 7.30 till 5.30 sometimes later depending on work. From hotel roof i counted 17 large over head cranes in the area but overall not too bad. This is classed as a 4 star hotel ,the hotel and staff yes but the food served in the restaraunt was only to a 3 star rating. Often the food served warm not a good selection ,at times meat unchewable would make good chewing gum.watch the milk for cereal as 5 times out of 14 we had to complain that the milk was sour. we have been to many 4 star hotels but this was the worst for food ,normally you get a chef carving meat or cooking crepes but not here. the resort is good but not a great deal to do at night and not suitable for infirm as very hilly . there is a lovely walk along the coast to Los Giantes and recommend hiring a car and going up to Mount Tedie through the nationel park . overall a good holiday.

Had read about the building site and so was not upset by it. the noise was not really a problem, but the balcony did get a bit dusty at times. Due to the layout of the building very few rooms overlook it. Very pleasant hotel which I would describe as a litttle "old fashioned" (this is actually meant as a compliment - I liked it.) Food catered for most tastes. there was nothing I couldn't eat. Got a little boring by the end of the week, but I don't really care for half board. My wife however loves it and never got bored. I think I would have been dissapointed if I had been AI. The entertainment was standard stuff, trying to cope with several nationalities. we never go to in house entertainment any way. We found a lovely bar just across the road. The pool area is rather cramped and I don't think it could have coped in high season. Pool was painfully cold!. Nice sunbathing area on the roof terrace. Room very clean and spacious with the most comfortable bed I think I have ever had on holiday. Puerto de Santiago is very nice, no time share salespeople and nobody pestering you to eat in their restaraunt etc like you get in Americas. Los Gigantes is magnificent, well worth the (rather hilly) walk. suitable for even unfit people like me.

My partner and I spent a week at the Lagos De cesar and our experience was mixed. To start with we were given a room overlooking a noisy building site, though we had requested a nice view. We did manage to swap rooms to one overlooking the pool and sea which was lovely. The accommodation consists of 2 rooms plus balcony, and it made a nice change to have a sofa to sit on. We felt there was a lack of 'care' in general in the hotel. Our curtain was hanging off the rail, broken bin, loo needed to be repaired and so on. Be warned there are no tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms. Also there is no minibar in the room. You order from a menu in the room (We did not do this) All rooms have a large fridge. The dining room was OK but totally self service which meant long queues at coffee and fruit juice machines at breakfast. The food was fine but after 4 days we were a bit bored of it so ate out. There is an unheated swimming pool with sun terrace and bar. When I went to the gym it was unsupervised and some of the machines did not work so I did not return. There is no shop, just a snack and drink machine, but there is a supermarket close by along with various restaurants, cafe and bars. Overall the location was very good if you are happy to be in a quiet area (apart from the building works!)

We loved our stay at the Lagos de Cesar. The staff were very helpful and could not have been more friendly. They loved people who tried to speak Spanish and were always ready to say hello. There is building work on the whole of the island and it is fascinating to watch this resort expand. Go there, absorb the culture and come back a relaxed better person

Just got back from spending 10 days at Lagos De Cesar. Although we agree that it should be a 3 star in comparison to the Playa La Arena which was also a 4 star. It was excellent value for money. The hotel was spotless, and the staff were helpful and friendly. On the down side there was building work going on at the back of the hotel but because we were out most days it did not bother us even though we had a room at the back. The was plenty of choice of food in the dining room although the hot food was hit and miss the cold was excelent. The pool was never full and there was always sunbeds available. (maybe because it was the begining of March and nobody left towels on the beds) The resort isn't very big but has lovely coastal walks but not suitable for people with walking difficultys. The bus service along the coast is good ,efficent ,and very resonable especially with the 'bono card' bought at the news agents .The whole area is very scenic and clean, but could be very boring for families with teenagers.

We stayed at Lagos 16th - 20th Jan. Exceptional weather. Lazed by the pool most of the time, Rooms were excellent, Separate lounge and huge balcony, Staff were friendly, especially Ben and Marcell, We went all inclusive, which worked well for the few days we were there. Entertainment not up too much , did not spoil it though. Food was good we thought,a lot of variety and plenty of it, Fantastic views of the mounatains and the sea, Was a lot of building going on,one side of the hotel was a mass of cranes.Quite noisy in the morning, The main residents of the hotel came with "Saga" so quite an older age group.Not a good hotel if you have young children. Was our first time to Tenerife and it was an enjoyable one.

Spent a week here after a transfer from 2 weeks in a Puerto de la Cruz hotel. Although this is rated a 4 star hotel it is more like a 3 star minus, especially when compared with Hotel playa la Arena just up the road which is also ranked as 4 star. The hotel is located about 50 metres back from the beach promenade and has views from the front rooms overlooking the sea. However the back and some side rooms have views over a large building site and noise and fumes from machinery mean balcony doors need to remain closed. The food on offer was adequate but choices were somewhat limited. Usually there were a couple of meat dishes and a fish dish plus pasta and sauce and salads on offer for the evening meals. Breakfast offered continental and English breakfasts although fried eggs tended to be either undercooked so the whites were still runny and the yolks cold or overcooked and burned on the underside. The pool area is small for the number of guests and is not in the sun at certain times, but there are 2 sun decks on the roof in compensation, although one of these is shared with a badminton court and other games areas. The resort has a number of bars and restaurants and it is also possible to use the faclities of the other hotels for the price of a drink. It is also possible to walk along the cliff path to Los Gigantes and enjoy the amenities that are on offer there. While I would return to Playa la Arena again I would not choose Lagos de Cesar. There are better hotels both in this resort and Los Gigantes.

Not really a 4 star hotel - more a good 3 star. The best thing for me was the room. Large and comfortable. Food ok, but no better. Hotel very quiet in evening - SAGA had their own lounge . Pool a bit cramped. Location fine. Enjoyed walk into Purto Santiago. To tip - yellow speed boat for dolphin watching. Best Ive ever been on.
