I've already started counting down to the unveiling of the next hotel - the Transcorp Hilton on Glover Road Ikoyi. I'm hoping that it will take the place of Ikoyi Hotel in my heart. (O Ikoyi Hotel sob. Ikoyi Hotel! Videomart, suya. O Ikoyi Hotel ) |

If only you'd think harder, you'll realize that there are thousand more jobs that are tied to the daily operations of this hotel........Let me help you out.....The cabs that will service the Hotel, The Food delivery, Drinks that will be purchased..... 3 Likes |

Very nice indeed. Gradually, Lagos is turning into a world-class tourist destination. In fact, Lagos could become the luxury hotel capital of West Africa! Having said that, I share Berem's sentiment that more 3-4 star hotels should be sited in the mainland; abi dem dey fear agbero? |

berem: So many high brow hotels located at the island. What happened to places like Oshodi, Ojota, Surulere etc? Do i see a disparity between the rich and poor? We need more of such hotels at the mainland too. Haaaaaa, this type of Hotel in Oshodi or "Moon-shine"? There are enough "Hotels" in those places already .... as in you know now, "Short Stays" Oshodi people no like this type of expensive shyte, they just want where they can breeze-in, do their thingy for two hours and zap-off. You would remember that one wey "Oga Commissioner" of Police go pkheme for, ....at Ikorodu now. that is the kind "ten stars" they like over there. Each area with its own style and modus operandi. Lastpage! BTW: While some are "divesting" from Lagos, others are pouring "foreign cash" and investing more in Lagos! Net Result = Lagos No Shaking, go-on soun. **winks**winks*** 2 Likes |

Hotels in Nigeria are notoriously overpriced when compared to their counterparts in better developed climes. The hotels argue that their sky-high prices are due to the tortuous nature of working in Nigeria, especially with respect to the abysmal lack of basic infrastructure; but still, I don't understand why I have to pay the equivalent of £200 for a night in a so-called 5-star hotel in Nigeria. A hotel in the UK providing the exact same service (or even better) costs an average of £50 to £100/night. 4 Likes |

Rossikk: I've been all over and believe me, foreign hotels are over rated. Most are no better or worse than their Nigerian counterparts. I will not disagree with the first part of your point but the second part i think hotels in Nigeria are hastily rated... imagine Golde Tulip saying its a 4star hotel... i lived in a 4 star hotel in Dubai for 9months its can compete with the so called 5 star hotels in Nigeria... |

Many Haters of Lagos on this thread (My Eastern brothers sorry). As for those saying this hotel isn't the only 5-star hotel, Nigeria doesn't have any 5-star hotel from International rating nt even Transcorp hIlton Abuja,Sheraton hotel lagos,Orientals hotel lagos,protea hotel lagos,Eko hotels etc. As for the ones in the UK I was priviledge to stay a night in a 5-star hotel called Grovesnor Hotel off Hyde park,London and I most say the service was fantastic u are treated like a king or Queen (seriously). So its nt only abt the edifice,the service matters too. Eko o ni bajeeeeeeeeee 2 Likes |

Stop making outrageous claims as you most likely have never left Nigeria talkless of being all over. Even if you have been outside Nigeria, I doubt you have stayed in a hotel before. What a moronic statement. 3 Likes |
