Planning a short business trip or corporate assignment in Lagos?”
Business travelers make up a significant portion of visitors to Lagos, and increasingly, they’re choosing shortlets over traditional hotels. As someone who’s attended meetings on the Island knows, your accommodation choice significantly impacts productivity and comfort. Here’s why savvy business travelers are making the switch.
Extended hotel stays quickly become expensive. When you factor in daily rates, dining costs, and service charges, even mid-range hotels can strain corporate budgets. Shortlets typically cost 40-60% less than equivalent hotel accommodations for stays exceeding one week.
Beyond the nightly rate savings, shortlets with full kitchens allow you to prepare some meals, further reducing expenses. For companies sending employees on lengthy assignments or teams working on extended projects, the savings multiply significantly.
Space and Comfort Matter
Hotel rooms, even executive suites, feel cramped after a few days. Shortlets provide separate living areas, bedrooms, and often additional rooms that can serve as home offices. This separation between work and rest spaces improves both productivity and work-life balance during extended stays.
Many business travelers report better sleep quality in shortlets, attributing it to the residential environment, familiar cooking smells, and the psychological comfort of a “home” rather than a hotel room.
The Productivity Advantage
Modern business demands flexibility. Video calls, presentations, and collaborative work require reliable internet, quiet spaces, and proper workstations. While hotels have improved their business amenities, shortlets often provide superior work environments.
Dedicated work areas with proper desks, ergonomic chairs, and stable high-speed internet are standard in our Victoria Island properties. Multiple rooms mean team members can work on calls simultaneously without disturbing each other, impossible in single hotel rooms.
Privacy and Flexibility
Hotels operate on their schedules with fixed meal times, housekeeping intrusions, and public spaces. Shortlets offer complete privacy and control over your environment. Host client dinners in your apartment, hold early morning calls in your pajamas, or work until 3 AM without disturbing anyone.
For business travelers balancing work with personal life, this flexibility is invaluable. Take calls from home while preparing breakfast, or transition from a board meeting to family video calls without leaving your accommodation.
