I stayed at this hotel for about three weeks and for the most part everything worked fine. However I think some of the staff need to be more professional as I was disappointed to see two of the waiters making jest of a guest who was snapping pictures around the hotel. I had breakfast and dinner all through and it... More

This is part of the Protea hotel group, so the hotel is as good as can be expected. The rooms are spacious and the beds are large and comfortable. There is a large bath and seperate shower cubicle. The tv system has limited satellite coverage. The dining room and bar is all in the same area. Breakfast is varied, plentiful... More

Wow. The protea Westwood Ikoyi, in just two months seems to have gone in reverse. Booking was a nightmare. Arrival, although I was greeted by all non desk staff as a visiting dignitary,the desk staff were particularly tardy, slow and inefficient. There seems to be a whole bunch of new staff? On entering my room, the A/C in the rooms... More

I stayed at the Protea for a week and wasn't sure what to expect on my first visit to Africa. I was pleasantly surprised. The hotel is clean, my bedroom (a standard room) was comfortable and everything worked most of the time including free wifi.

Excellent service, and a good value for very expensive Lagos. Undergoing renovation, so a bit of a bustle during the day. Lagos is NOISY, so if you get a room facing the street, it can be a bit of a bother, but not overwhelming. Very good breakfast, which was included in my room rate. My room was on the top... More

Lagos, Nigeria might not fit into the tourist travel destination category. That being said, this city is vibrant and very different from anything I've come across in Europe, America or Asia. Lagos is in fact the first place I've visited on the African continent and I've been there 6 times all together. A good reason to come back to Lagos... More
