4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Lagos

  1. Book for the cheapest times: For travellers seeking an affordable holiday on a budget, Lagos presents a great value for money experience, especially when visiting in August, September, and November. During these months, hotel prices may drop to lower prices, making it a budget-friendly choice. To fully explore Lagos' key landmarks, historical sites and cultural attractions — including seafood, culture, live music, waterskiing, cafes, dancing, soccer, business, romantic spots and entertainment — it is recommended to stay for at least 4 to 5 days. This duration provides ample time to immerse oneself in the rich heritage and diverse offerings of the city.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: For travellers planning a trip to Lagos, Hotels.com offers Dealsopens in new window and Last-Minute Deals sections where you may discover discounted hotel rates close to your travel date. You could find flash sales by enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about special last-minute promotions. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so if rooms become available or prices drop, you're more likely to see an opportunity to book a last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may vary according to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in a Lagos hotel. For those seeking distinctive experiences, boutique hotels may offer a more personalised service and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your selected dates is higher or lower than average, and if it is on the higher side, we may suggest more affordable dates to help you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to charge higher rates, but thanks to Lagos's excellent public transport links, you might find a more affordable independent hotel further afield that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby cities, there is often excellent value for money. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
