Lagosmar Hotel
It was a very nice experience. Very helpful and cheerful staff and good location at center of Lagos. Only the artificial light of the room was not the best. The room is very clean and i will be back of course in my next trip to Lagos.

The Salty Lodge
Friendliness and welcome of staff; provision of simple extras such as room snacks and starter kit on arrival. The kitchen was very well equipped with even a juicer for the oranges included in the room. They even had a first aid kit. Overall, this was an example of true hospitality!!

Vila Vita Parc
It was a great stay. The staff is very friendly and professional, breakfast is first class (and they were very accommodating my wife's dietary restrictions) Dinner at Aladin Grill was one to remember. We enjoyed the walks and hikes, yes we needed a car to go to some places, but was everything within ...
