Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Lagos is notoriously expensive and you need apply a different standard when comparing hotels to other cities – but in relative terms the Eko Signature Suites offer good value. (Not to be confused with the main hotel which is run down!) It was half the price we were quoted by the Radisson Blu and the same as the Federal Palace and this is certainly a better option. The Eko Suites take a little longer to get to than the other two mentioned and traffic can build up a bit on the roundabout but it’s not too serious. Checking in and out is efficient, the rooms are very spacious and they have coffee machines with pods. The wifi works well – the only annoying thing is that you lose the wifi when your phone goes into sleep mode. So if your phone isn’t active, which uses up your battery rather quickly, you are not on the wifi. The hot water also takes an absolute age to come through the taps – literally three minutes or so. The breakfast was a bit limited and they don’t keep condiments like ketchup or HP sauce on the buffet tables and you have to ask for them. Coffee was ok. I couldn’t exchange any dollars into Naira there again although they claim to have a forex desk. Probably the best gym of any business hotel I’ve been to which is a major plus.

My 2nd stay at the Suites side of things. I got to appreciate the depth of this entire place. the suites have very ample rooms that are serviced very well BUT the musty/mouldy smell is something they must look into seriously, just like the old rusty showers with low pressure...the bathrooms need a whole lot of refurbishment to match the rooms here..see the pics.
the main hotel is rowdy in December I suppose but the best in terms of facilities.
a pleasant stay that makes the Lagos 'noise' much better - a refuge of sorts if you will.
The suites have no life really and one has to venture out to the upper parts of the facility--the Main Hotel(the main vessel that pumps more than any of the 4 facilities here) and The Signature for meals and posh ambience. do not bother with the Eko Garden if you can help it.

The hotel is composed by 4 different buildings, that can be a bit confusing when you arrive and try to do the check-in. But then you have different options for foods and drinks. The room at the Eko Gardens was real big and was very clean. The staff all around the hotel was very helpful. The only problem that I had it was with service at the Pub, apparently they were not able to charge the bill to my room and only realised during closing and decided to call directly my room after midnight so that I would go back to the bar and pay. I went, paid and also complain saying that was not acceptable that they shoud inform reception specially at that hour. They didn't care. The following thay I talked to the Manager, that was very nice and apologised. Except for that, the Pub is real nice, the food is good and have a nice live music set.

I’ve stayed here so many times before and it’s always been a pleasure able experience. I organise oil and gas events and organise the team to stay here. This trip however was the worst I’ve had at the the Eko. None of the meals were available , pepper soup, no chicken , no meat just fish. Meals took ages to come. When the drinks arrived they were harassing me to pay now and saying signing to the room isn’t possible. After swimming I’m on the seats and they are telling me to leave because they have ‘closed’ meanwhile the Europeans are not being harassed like me. Breakfast - trying to get me to pay for an extra breakfast when I’ve paid for two rooms for me and my friend. Breakfast , we asked for items and they never brought it. I ask for late check out and they are trying to charge me a half day. Just stayed in the room anyway and nothing happened. Some things don’t cost you anything but go a mile in courtesy. I certainly would be writing a more positive review , I can tell you that much!!!
I myself own hotels in Ghana and understand hospitality so felt very aggrieved by what had befallen one’s self in Lagos at the Eko.
Pros - the gym is very decent as is the sauna. The service at the pool bar is solid and great, that team deserve medals especially the guy with Light blue Rolex Daytona. Michael maybe. Rooms are cleaned to a very good standard and security is spot on. Eko you need to get back to your ost glory, complacency is poison.

Nice in some respects but only the signature suites are anything near 5 stars.
The food is poor. Stale cakes and pastries do not inspire confidence in the rest of the cuisine. There is no quality control in some areas. The wifi policy for long standing clients is appalling. The room service consistently disappoints in terms of availability and quality.
All in all, the place needs good management and less arrogant service model.

A wonderful mini resort for friends and lovers. Access to the gym, pool, and many other fun activities while lodged there. There’s a club, a restaurant on the premises and there’s a buffet breakfast every morning for those lodged. If ever you’re in Nigeria, Lagos precisely then you should have the Eko Experience.

For the past 5 years ive always stayed at the Eko main hotel. Ive noticed the deterioration of services and quality. More and more items are not available on the menus, even a simple pina colada from crossroads restaurant could not be made due to lack of ingredients. The room service menu is even worse- more than 50% of items are not available. Ive requested an iron to my room and had to wait 45 min before it arrived. Food is overpriced and quality greatly reduced- since Eko caters more and more for the masses it seems. This is no longer an exclusive hotel like before. Upon checkout I requested assistance with my luggage and decided to carry the suitcases myself after waiting for more than 35 minutes. My dissapointment has increased after each visit.

This is the 4th time I stayed at the hotel as an adult. I remember coming here with my family as a kid and for some reason, the hotel still has a very good reputation but I think it’s more about the reputation from the old days. It’s lost a lot of its ‘magical’ touches and I usually book here because of a show or wedding happening at the hotel. This time, I booked a superior room facing the Atlantic however I got only a partial view of the Atlantic but the view of the pool was very nice. The room was outdated with old furniture but bed was comfortable nonetheless. Balcony and bathroom are also old fashioned. Bathroom also needs more lighting. The breakfast buffet was standard hotel breakfast and was nice enough. There was also a live band with poolside grill on the Friday night I stayed and that was really nice. Buffet consisted of lots of prawns and variety of dishes which I enjoyed. I also enjoyed the use of the pool. Wish the pool was a bit more private as anyone visiting the hotel can walk past and see you in your suit. Overall, I stayed 2 nights and it was adequate for my stay.

I was here for a conference that was also on the property. It was convenient to not have to leave the hotel. I pre-arranged for airport pickup and transport to the hotel, which was billed to my room. However, once I got to the hotel and wanted to book a return to the airport, all of the cars were unavailable and I had to reserve a ride separately, which had to be paid in cash and was almost 50% more expensive. As you may experience, secure transportation in Lagos can be tricky.
The beds were comfortable. The pool was nice and good temperature. There was typically music playing outside and was quite loud, but quieted down at night. The property itself looked a little worn. We stayed in the main building and from what I could tell, it was much nicer than some of the outer buildings, though not as nice as the Signature. Changing money was a bit of an issue. Although they have exchange rate signs at the front desk, they do not actually change money and they directed me to someone in a building on the property that was essentially a black market money exchanger. For a business hotel, I was disappointed that there were no irons or ironing boards in the room. I was able to get one from housekeeping, but they also collected it at 7am to give to another guest because there were none available. The hotel does not have face cloths. I did not see a refrigerator in the room that we could use to keep our water cold. There were several restaurants on the property. There is a car-rental facility on the property (Sixt). There was a bookstore, but they don't take foreign credit cards.
For the few days it was satisfactory, but if you're used to polished business-oriented properties, you may find it disappointing.
