Nigeria: Marriott International and Landmark Africa Group have announced the signing of a Lagos hotel featuring Renaissance and Marriott Executive Apartments components.
The 25-floor hotel will feature a 216-room full-service Renaissance Hotel and 44-unit Marriott Executive Apartment offering extended stay apartments.
Scheduled to open in 2020, the hotels will be located within the Landmark Village precinct, a mixed-use, business, leisure and lifestyle development along the waterfront in Victoria Island, the central business district of Lagos.
“We are excited to partner with the Landmark Africa Group on this project. With the rapid pace of urbanisation more and more guests are looking for the value, the convenience and the vitality that mixed-use provides. The Renaissance Lagos Hotel and Marriott Executive Apartments will be a significant addition to our strong Nigeria portfolio. There is a growing need for high caliber short and extended stay lodging in Nigeria and we believe the two hotels together will help bridge this gap,” said Alex Kyriakidis, president and managing director Middle East and Africa for Marriott International.
The hotels will offer a wide range of amenities, including local and international restaurants, spa facilities, a fitness centre, an infinity pool, and access to a 100-metre-long boardwalk overlooking a beach club.
“Marriott International is synonymous with quality and unique lifestyle experiences globally, which we, at the Landmark Africa Group continuously strive to align ourselves with. We look forward to bringing Marriott’s hospitality and passion for excellence to the Landmark Village setting a new benchmark for mixed-use developments in the region,” said Paul Onwuanibe, CEO of Landmark.</p
