This hotel offers good value (by Lagos standards) , security , working facilities and a location close to the airport. It fails to match up to its website claim "5 star" and the quality of its food is not on a par with the rest of the hotel.Its a compromise that I would choose to make again especially if I... More

After having stayed in a few hotels in this area, I now found one that I okay to visit again. It's not my best choice but considering the standards locally this is my only choice as it is also close to my place of work. My only concern is that for the price. Lagos demands high prices but basic in... More

I stayed at this hotel for a week (12-18 Sep 2011). It was a pleasant surprise that a hotel that good could go for that rate in that part of Lagos. Now, don't get me wrong: the rate was high compared to similar hotels in the US. But by Lagos standards, it was relatively affordable. The staff were generally helpful... More

I really like this hotel ...i think it has everything I want....1) direct online booking...I was able to reserve on their website and securely pay through paypal. 2) friendly staff (e.g one of the receptionists 'Tonya' remembered me from an earlier visit and...

Stayed here for two weeks whilst on a business trip and overall, was very impressed. The rooms are of a good size, with a massive double bed, satellite tv (not many channels worked though) and wireless internet connection. The cleanliness was good and free bottles of water were placed in the room each day. There is a decent sized swimming... More

I arrived in Lagos, Nigeria for tourism on January 20 on my way to Benin City. Since my flight to Benin City didn't leave until the 21st, I decided to stay at this hotel and i'm glad I did! The decor was very nice and my room was super clean. The lighting was a little dim which was the only... More

Very clean hotel. Very courteous staff. Very near the airport. Was very pleased with the choice of this hotel. Would choose it again. Food was not bad, but was not exceptional. Just a very good basic hotel experience in near the Lagos airport. More

I booked this hotel with a little trepidation but was pleasantly surprised. It's a good, standard hotel. Nothing fancy, but definitely not bad. It's quite close to the airport (believe me, that's a good thing in lagos) and getting there was quite straight forward. Check in was lousy. I'd booked and paid via expedia only to arrive and be told... More

I travel regurlary to Lagos for work. The airport car hire service recommended the hotel to me. I'm grateful they recommended it to me. It is actually very close to the airport and is less expensive than Sheraton, Planet One or Protea in the Ikeja area. It looked secure and very clean. checking in was very quick unlike what I...

I was (un)lucky enough to have to spend 4 weeks in Nigeria, working for a Nigerian Company. The hotel provided by my employer was The Welcome Centre. On arrival I was most impressed with the modern decor, and security was very very strict, something which is reassuring, given that the hotel is located in a very dangerous and run down... More
