“Modern and luxurious”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 June 2013 via mobile

The Wheatbaker has a full range of facilities, ultra modern and luxurious rooms and very nice restaurants (pricey but so is everything else in Lagos). I particularly enjoyed the gym which is equipped with a cardio circuit and weights. The hotel is well located and it only took us 20 minutes to get to Victoria island leaving the hotel at... More

“As good as it gets in Lagos”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 June 2013

A small, almost boutique style hotel with an excellent General Manager who ensures international standards of service; much better than most Lagos hotels. I stayed 2 nights and had no problems at all. I knew the hotel well having dined and drank there many times, but I had never stayed previously. It is far from cheap - around USD 400... More

“Best hotel in Lagos”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 May 2013

Fanstastic service. Quiet location in Ikoyi. Brilliant restaurant by any standards. Great cocktails at the all night bar. Only decent fitness suite in Lagos to be honest. Staff are delightful. Would definitely recommend staying here. Although on must remember that while the hotel may seem expensive it isn't really when you consider the amount you pay for far crappier hotels... More

“The best, but....”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013

The hotel is small and sweet with excellent staff but the kitchen really lets it down. I have stayed for three longish periods and really, take the breakfast about twice a week. It's also a bit boring, which is odd given that it is clearly the best hotel in Lagos. The staff are super friendly and make the stay feel... More

Small but perfectly formed, the Wheatbaker is a real haven in the chaos that is Lagos. The bar staff is excellent, and the restaurant is well managed, offering a good selection of food.
