Protea Hotel by Marriott Ikeja is located off Oba Akran Avenue in Ikeja, on the Lagos mainland close to the airport corridor and the Ikeja industrial and commercial district. The property follows Marriott's Protea brand format, offering a clean, functional mid-range stay aimed primarily at business travellers working with companies along Oba Akran Avenue's manufacturing and logistics hubs. Standard, Deluxe and Suite rooms are practically furnished with work desks and reliable wifi, prioritising business needs over leisure extras. The hotel's restaurant and bar serve a Nigerian and international menu, and an outdoor pool and gym provide basic recreation for longer stays. Its business centre and meeting rooms are used regularly by companies operating nearby, and the hotel offers airport transfer arrangements given its proximity to Murtala Muhammed International Airport. Service is efficient and consistent with Marriott's international standards, making it a dependable choice for corporate stays on the Ikeja side of Lagos rather than a leisure base for exploring Victoria Island or Lekki.
