Novotel Victoria Island – main contractor appointed

Byhostjc

Piling has been completed for the new Novotel Victoria Island Lagos, and we now have approval to appoint the main contractor.  The hotel looks set to shake up the hospitality scene in the Victoria Island district of Nigeria’s largest city, one of Africa’s biggest commercial and financial hubs, standing out as a stylish space for guests and local residents to meet, relax, dine and socialise. 

The hotel’s 168 rooms and suites will be complemented by an all-day dining restaurant, a lobby bar, a pool bar, a swimming pool, a gym and 400 sqm of banqueting and meeting spaces. It is also being developed as a green building to meet the International Finance Corporation’s EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) certification.
