I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful, even the security on all the floors. The gym is small but well equipped and overlooks the swimming pool. My room was a real haven after a day in the city - spacious, clean and very comfortable! Best of all: the Nespresso machine! The only thing... More

“Oasis in Lagos”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 April 2013

I was recommended this hotel by a friend of mine. I thanked also my friend about this. This hotel is absolutely a place where one must stay, if one truly wants to escape the Hectic City of Lagos from days work/activities and sleep & rest well. Everything works, on time. Highly recommended. Many thanks to all of you there who... More

“Awesome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 March 2013

Boutique Hotel in Lagos!! Service was impeccable. We had dinner there first night and while the food was not awesome, the service more than made up for it. We also has drinks and snacks by the pool. I am definitely returning if in Lagos! Food at Radisson was better but the service there lacked.
