It's a nice hotel and well decorated. I love the city view from the room, which is always a nice alternative to the always problematic TV channels (I've been to this property at least three times). Hotel is clean and there's very easy access to transportation- if you don't want to use the costly ones provided by the hotel. Food... More

Tough place to stay and do business as internet is spotty. The shower pressure is terrible and literally had to take military showers every day. The food is below average but there is a saving grace to this property. It is located right next to the Ikeja mall. The mall has a great restaurant called Rhapsody, South African owned. Great...

Ever since this hotel opened for business, I am still in awe of the great decor, it's overwhelmingly good. There is this particular room/ suite that is like an island the room is at the center of the living room it circles round back. Check it out. Am always lost in my thoughts each time I visit. It always feel... More

Anyone expecting Western standards in West African hotels is likely to be disappointed (unless you've very deep pockets). I recently spent 9 weeks in the de Renaissance, so good and bad points. Don't stay above the 3rd floor - the water pressure doesn't make it. My room was large and well cleaned every day ( except for the window sills).... More

The manager and his wife creepily sit in the lobby as one of the reviewers mentioned and watch as the front desk staff flat out refuse to address any problems/ issues of concerns to their guests/clients. Horrible service, dirty and unkept rooms esp. the bathroom, did,i mention bad service. All in all, would not recommend or even put my dog... More

This is by far the worse hotel I've experience in my life!!! The people at front desk never greet you, never smiles and they are worthless and useless when it comes to any information you need. The restaurant sucks and their food is the worse!! Pool?? Gym?? It never works, broken equipment, hot and small !! The rooms are unsafe,... More

After reading the previous reviews, I am wondering if I staying the same hotel!!! I believe this is my fourth trip to Nigeria - it is definitely not a country for the weak of heart! I stayed at the Four Points Sheraton previously, but this is out of the way for our business meetings. The Sheraton is closer, but would... More

I have been to Lagos five time in the past four years. All the locals say one or two names when asked for a GOOD QUALITY hotel...the problem is, to get a decent hotel in Lagos, even comparable to a two-star hotel in the states, one must fork out at least $350. I found this place by accident and frustration... More
