to get started.

Everything Rick said was correct in his review of Marina Rio. Great location, staff and accommodations We opted for the city view which actually overlooks the bus station but it was quiet and we had the afternoon sun. Plenty of food/bar options close-by. Definitely would go back.

Robert, United States of America

The hotel is in a great location right across from the Marina and right Ned to the bus station. Noise levels were perfect considering those two things. It’s worth paying a bit more the a room on the Marina side. Having the balcony with the view was wonderful! The hotel and our room was very clean. I’d go back to this hotel in a heartbeat. The rooftop pool was also very nice.

Kelly, Canada

The breakfast provided was excellent, buffet style and varied. Our room had a lovely view of the marina which we enjoyed from the balcony. There were many restaurants within walking distance as well as boat tours leaving from docks right across the street. The bus station and the local farmer’s market were right out the “back door.” The train station is about a four block easy walk.

Nancy, United States of America

The location is perfect only a short stroll to most places The room has been up graded and very very nice The roof top pool and area looked nice for a sunny day small bar in the corner by reception

Helen, Indonesia

We had a great 3 night stay here at the beginning of April. Absolutely no complaints. The staff was very friendly and the location was perfect for us. The Eva bus station is directly behind the hotel, and the train station is a short walk across the street and behind the marina. Our room was on the bus station side of the hotel, but there was no noise issue. Even watched the sunset from the balcony one night- just looked out instead of down! The Marina has a nice variety of restaurants and sports bars. We get very excited about breakfast buffets, and this one did not disappoint. Hot options included scrambled or over easy eggs and baked beans. Nice variety of fruit, cheese, and lunch meats including turkey and smoked salmon. Pastries included the delicious mini pastel de natas. We took advantage of the hotel's complimentary shuttle to Dona Ana beach (drop off around 10:30 and pick up at 4:30)- a nice touch.

Wendy, United States of America

Fabulous location and facilities. Friendly and helpful staff

Deanne, United States of America

Overall, a very nice place but one warning, unless you pay extra your room is at the rear of the hotel overlooking a bus depot immediately behind the back.. This isn't mentioned in the booking.com listing. Not very noisy but unscenic. The breakfast was a very decent buffet. No made to order omeleis but good variety and tasty.

Robert, United States of America

The interior was beautiful and the room. Great location! Great staff.

Julie, United States of America

The heated pool was gorgeous and was great to watch the sunset from. The rooms and lobby have all just been updated. They look great. The breakfast was very impressive!

Sean, Canada

Incredible hotel, cozy, clean and reflects that it is family run (rather than a corporate chain). The staff were amazing and friendly. They know and practice the meaning of a true friendly service. Miguel, Isabella, Magdalena and Vera are incredible hosts who are part of the amazing charm of this hotel. A hotel with a soul and amazing character.

Free public parking right next door, but I understand there will be a charge from 1 June. Great location - just across a walking bridge to the marina for water tours and just a short walk to the Lagos Old Town.

Only the front two parking spaces outside the hotel belong to the hotel and are free to park in. All others require payment, not expensive but payment all the same. The breakfast room can get busy, bare that in mind when planning your day.
The location of this recently refurbished hotel is nearly perfect. Its a nice stroll to the centre of the old town and over the bridge opposite for the marina and beach. Very friendly staff, spotless and very smart with an excellent breakfast, I wouldn't hesitate returning to Marina Rio.

Their King size bed is two smaller beds pushed together with separate sheeting much like on a cruise ship. It didn’t bother us at all but some people might not like it.

Location 10 on 10 . Just in front of Marina and the bridge. Trains just 200 meters away and buses 10 meters. Europecar is 300 meters away if you need to rent a car. Boats 150 meters away. Old town is also not too far may be 400 meters . It was clean and quite in May. The staff was very very friendly and helping. The rooms were big and good view over Marina. Safe as lift needed room key to start. Swimming pool on rooftop , though we dint used it. Child friendly .

Breakfast could have been better but otherwise the hotel was first class
Breakfast was adequate but not great. The location was, in some ways, excellent with great views over the marina but not in the town centre. Our room and the view were perfect but maybe the rooms at the back of the hotel aren't so good as I imagine they overlook the bus station.

we absolutely loved everything about this hotel. There was nothing else the staff could have done in order to make our stay more relaxing or pleasant. It is a wonderful hotel, and if we ever return to Lagos we will Definitely stay there.
We only had breakfast in the hotel on one morning and it was perfectly adequate, but we opted to have breakfast in Lagos town itself for the rest of our stay as there was lots of choice and it was a great opportunity to people watch! The location of this hotel was unrivalled. We had a room on the second floor overlooking the beautiful Marina, and the views from our lovely balcony were awesome. Our room was fabulous, and exceeded our expectations on every level. We had a daily room cleaning service, and the entire hotel was spotless throughout and all areas were bright and airy. The rooftop terrace has to be seen to be fully appreciated. It affords magnificent views of the sea and the marina, and it also has a swimming pool which is fully heated. So many beautiful touches on the rooftop terrace, so well done to whoever designed it. A quick shout out to all the wonderful staff in Marina Rio, who went over and above the call of duty at every turn, but in particular, to Miguel for his kindness, charm, great wit and his knowledge. He is a wonderful asset to any hotel, and Marina Rio are so lucky to have him as a member of staff. We were so impressed with the grace, good humour and charm he showed us as we were checking in very late (after midnight) on the night of our arrival, and he continued to entertain us with his witty stories and jokes right throughout our stay. Overall, the Marina Rio is a class hotel, and we could not recommend it more highly.
