"My husband & I stayed at the Lagos Atlantic for 6 nights and would 100% recommend. From the moment you walk in, Joao & Vivian greet you with such kindness and give a warm welcome with recommendations and any questions you have. The breakfast staff daily were incredible. Mayara, Tatiana and Rodrigo were delightful every morning and always made sure we were taken care of.
The room views facing the pool and ocean were beautiful and it was a nice quiet hotel with amazing service. Only a few mins from downtown Lagos and away from the loud atmosphere. If you are looking for an amazing hotel, great service, great food and quiet surroundings; I highly recommend! "
