Every traveller has some common basic considerations. They include safety, time, cost, convenience and comfort among others. Once done with safety and now good to go, a traveller will usually net his or her concerns down to cost and comfort. When coming to Lagos, it is important to know about hotels that combine affordability and comfort. Some hotels which already have these advantages could also add up one more: proximity to the airport or destination. If you are travelling for business, leisure or work, it could mean a lot to find a hotel near the base of business.
In Lagos, there is a hotel brand that tends to boast of ubiquity of these characteristics of affordability, proximity and comfort.
Traveller & Hospitality has seen Presken Hotels’ presence in many parts of Lagos, such that no matter where you are coming to in Lagos, there is a Presken Hotel near your destination.
A more interesting finding is that the hotel is relatively cheap, with competitive standard offering in the global hospitality environment. The hotel could help travellers make smart cost choices.
A Presken Hotel can be found in the following areas of Lagos: Mojidi (Opebi, Ikeja), Obafemi Awolowo Way, Ikeja, Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Maryland, Ikeja GRA, Murtala Mohammed International Airport Road (opposite Ajao Estate), Alade Avenue, Opebi, Allen and Oniru in Victoria Island. Most of the hotels are just a few minutes from the airport.
The Presken Hotel can be described as the hotel for the middle class where guests can save up to 15 percent when they book early. The most costly room is still below the cost of the least room in many hotels in the city with foreign franchise, even though Presken has just what you need for comfort and luxury on offer.
A note on the hotel’s website says something every traveller wants to get familiar with. “Our goal has always been to offer more than a luxurious place to sleep, more than exceptional business facilities with the latest technology, more than personalised service, more than outstanding food and amenities; to provide each guest with a hotel experience unlike any other – all at reasonably budget friendly rates. Whichever Presken location you choose, be rest assured of our renowned hospitality and homely ambiance. Our stay packages and onsite services are modestly tailored to suit both corporate and leisure guests at very best rates available.”
At any Presken Hotel, guests can enjoy the best Nigerian and continental cuisine with in-house menus.
With over 11 hotels in the Presken chain in close proximity to the Muritala Muhammed Airport and available lodgings placed at the heart of both Ikeja, Lagos Island and the Abuja metropolis district, Presken leaves a good example of a modern styled hospitality chain.
