Four Points by Sheraton and Eko Hotel's rooms are not as nice or even as big as this. It's ridiculous. And the cost of the food will make you wonder if you're eating sushi made from the nectar and ambrosia of some Greek gods, mixed with juice made from the fountain of youth. At least Protea Hotel in Ikeja has nicer rooms. 2 Likes |

In terms of hotel service quality and infrastructures, it costs many times more to lodge in hotels in Nigeria than in Europe and America. |

I hope someone occupying a reputable seat in government sees this, industrialization cannot be fully achieved if the government does nt subsidize the cost of electricity dat alone cant result to increasing cost of maintenance of an hotel(manufacturing) or an (industry).. this serve as a necessity for efficient actualization of economic goals. but wait oooo how can I spend 250k for one night..... |

Let's leave infrastructure out of this! Basically Nigeria lack a good tourist developmental activities, if only Nigeria does have a good tourist developments, hotels here would leave up to the standards of what is experienced in other parts of the world! You need to visit Tanzania,Kenya etc and see how hotels are ran!! They even give you free WiFi service for a considerate fee, a hotel with all amenities for less than 5k/night with clean rooms not what we find here when rats jump about in your room, where bed sheets are not clean or regularly changed.. Mhen! I just can't understand why things are always the opposite here in Nigeria? |

t2luv1: Very simple answer, those are the people with easy access to ill-gotten wealth in this country. There are many sharing formulae of the common wealth among the so called 'connected' people in nigeria, whether through the jumbo pay job in govt, oil company etc or unfair environment for the businessmen to exploit the masses. These people don't have value for money coz they never earned even 1/4th of their wealth. 2 Likes 1 Share |

wills: lagos-hotels-2nd-most-expensive in the world That is just the word. The telecoms sector, the cement sector, the hospitality sector are all profiteering on the masses in Nigeria. I was complaining to my sales rep that the company product of which I am a distributor is just availing me N20 profit per bag on an investment of N1,630. Imagine profit = 20/1,630 = 0. 01227 In percentage terms 1.227 %. What kind of business is that ? A product that was selling by this time last year for N1,450. What has really changed in the production process ? Nothing ! He told me, that the company is not ready to bring down the price or start a price war. I smiled, i diverted my money to something else more profitable.. Consumer protection is not efficient in this country... 1 Like |

I have always held this view. Southern Sun Ikoyi is outrageous. I was there a couple years back for a nightly business meeting and wanted to check in and was told the cheapest room would cost over $400 or N64k. This is a 2-3star hotel by intl standard. Over $ 400/night gets u a room in most 5-star hotels in Chicago, NYC,ATL. The rich really suffer in Naija! |

Thank God this coming up now. Na all of us dey naija. God will help us. One day power will improve & there will be constant light. Let's see if this prices will ever come down. It's in our attitude... If something is not expensive, we don't always see it as good or original or standard. To add to the is the sales or hotel staff that earn peanut, the security that beg for m***. How many hotels/companied pay their worker well, or have good reward system in naija? Even though their annual returns are in billions / hundreds of millions. Na God go help us jor. God bless naija people. |

/ I have stayed in a lot of hotels in FCT, Lagos, Enugu, Owerri and PH. By far, the one I enjoyed most is called D'Martel (or something like that around Govt.House) at Enugu for around N10k. The room was very neat. Everything was very standard. And this was November last year. But all those N15k-N30K per night rooms in Lagos and FCT are not worth crap especially considering that sometimes I pay for a week or more. Absofucking_lutely a rip off Plan is henceforth get into Lagos and get the hell out as soon as possible (if possible by the next day) \ |

I'm just wondering why you will spend 10nights at Four Points, when you were not there on Business. Well may be for the other NLers you fool with this your badly scripted Nollywood piece, but peradventure if this case is true or you are imagining it, cut your coat according to your size Okijajuju1: I agree.. 2 Likes |

1. Why does it sound to me that you're either stating what is not or trying to sound like who you're not. 2. Except you're patronizing or confusing Brothels with Hotels, your analysis is simply hogwash 3. Better still tell us the hotels you've been to that are "Yet in Nigeria where the hotels are dirty, NEPA taking light anyhow, tiny food portions which are sometimes tasteless, and hotel staff who steal your things; things are so fvcking expensive. " pDude: A normal hotel in California with all the normal services is so cheap that ordinary people can afford to spend a night or two in them. Yet in Nigeria where the hotels are dirty, NEPA taking light anyhow, tiny food portions which are sometimes tasteless, and hotel staff who steal your things; things are so fvcking expensive. Biko, what type of economy is Nigeria operating in? That is the kind of economy that will sooner crumble upon itself. The people are so poor, yet the services are so expensive. It baffles me 2 Likes |

Well may be for the other NLers you fool with this your badly scripted Nollywood piece, but peradventure if this case is true or you are imagining it, cut your coat according to your size [b]reason I spent another 10 days at the Intercontenental Hotel in Lagos in February of the following year.. I did it cos I could. I did it cos I was Bored.. I did it because it was Christmas.. I did it because I have that kind of spare change in my account to spend. I did it because it was the end of the year and after all that hussle, I decided to close the year in style.. Hells, I did it because I have not just physical cash, but a healthy cashflow. So.. Please if my lounging makes you feel like a fool, then your conscience is who you should be after for making you feel like a fool, not me. My 'Coats' are all my size.. But I didnt expect to recieve a bill of over 400'k. Hommie.. People dont only stay in such hotels when they are on business or if they are politicians. Some do it just to pamper themselves abit. Life is hard, the hussle is exhausting so from time to time, take out some of that money and go do something that does not involve business.. And when you have stayed in these types of hotels long and often enough, you join their clubs which gives you great discounts to super hotels around the world. [/b] 4 Likes |

Bros, you have just spoilt the fun. The trend of arguments here was not going the way of logical thinking until you brought it in...... julibos: Hmm, am an hotelier ,I believe I can identify a little with the high room rate .in as much as I’m in the business ,I’m not trying to totally justify the high rate, it could be a little lower but then check this analysis: I’m using a case study of an international brand of 220 bedded rooms |
