I enjoyed a recent weekend booked in at the Federal Palace. I found when staying at the Federal Place it is as if you are far away from the hectic city life you experience in Lagos . The picturesque gardens, lovely terrace and magnificant pool area and all this overlooking the Lagos Lagoon and Harbour. The service is good, the... More

My stay was ok. No complaints so far. Food was very very good actually. My only problem is the price. This is the most expensive hotel ive ever been too !! Price vs. Value is unacceptable to me. Why should I pay 400 usd per night. Any how I was informed that it is the best in nigeria. And the... More

It was recommended as the best Hotel in Lagos for our meeting and stay. The only impressive thing was the view of the Sea. However even this is taken away by dark heavy curtains covering the windows in the lobby. The service received was terrible. The restaurant used for dinner should not bother offering anything al a Carte. The salad... More

I have stayed in this place quite a few times during numerous business trips to Lagos in the past three years. The hospitable staff, nicely decorated rooms,a wonderful terrace, picturesque garden overlooking the Lagos lagoon and the magnificent pool - these are all the elements of a quality hotel, which is quite hard to find in a place like Lagos....

The Federal Palace has always been my top choice of places to stay in Lagos due to great facilities especially gym and pool. However the hotel is in need of refurbishment and there are several maintenance issues - air cons leaking, broken bathroom fittings and pool was very green. I hope management gets on top of these issues soon.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It is an oasis of calm in the middle of a very busy, security conscious city. The hotel is set within a wonderful area where you feel totally safe and can enjoy the amazing facilities - the garden is on the water and has a gentle breeze and there is a large... More

It was my first stay at this hotel in Lagos and definitely it will become by first choice for coming trips, better than the previously one tried in the city. The hotel is In Victoria Island and although is completely secure, you do not have the sense of being inside a prison as you do at other Lagos hotels. The... More

Got to stay in this hotel not by choice but because the hotel I booked 'ran out of space' and arranged for this alternative which turned out to be a pleasant one. The hotel is located on Victoria Island on a very sizable plot, good entrance security. Check-in friendly and efficient, room just great with a very comfortable feel. Good... More

I stayed three nights and it was a serene hotel with friendly and courteous staff. And the food was good too. The staff were very professional and willing to serve. I will stay there again. However, the room rate are quite expensive. Sam Y

I travelled on my own, and met up with my husband, who was already in Lagos on business. From the moment I arrived, I was treated like a queen! The Federal Palace had organised someone to meet me as I got off the plane, to see me through Customs and into a waiting vehicle to the hotel. Once I arrived,... More
