4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Lagos

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Lagos is during January, February, and November, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city’s key landmarks, cultural sites, and natural wonders, a stay of at least 4 to 5 days is recommended. This duration allows visitors to enjoy budget-friendly activities such as sightseeing at historical monuments, relaxing at the beach, and strolling along the marina. With a focus on great value for money, you can indulge in family-friendly tours, romantic cafes, and leisurely walks without breaking the bank. Prices may drop during these months, making it a perfect opportunity for travellers on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover the best hotel deals for Lagos, start by browsing the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions, increasing your chances of securing a great bargain. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re more likely to see the best options. With these tools, you'll be well-equipped to book a spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay at a hotel in Lagos. For those seeking distinctive experiences, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. Should the price be on the higher side, we will suggest alternative dates that could potentially be more affordable, helping you find the best deal.

However, thanks to Lagos's superb public transport connections, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel further afield that remains well linked.
