Hilton Hotel Lagos

Facts

Location Client Cost Completion
Lagos, Nigeria Aero Marine Ltd $80m 2013

Project details

The design approach is to provide global standards and facilities with a contemporary interpretation.

The concept is of four leaves of bedroom accommodation emanating from a six storey atrium all with stunning views.

All services are generated on site to ensure continuous operation – water from a local borehole; electricity from the central CHP plant with waste heat providing the building’s cooling and heating requirements.

The themes are derived from the forest, foliage, fruits, light and shadow.

Brief

  • design for 250 room 5-star hotel
  • facilities include meeting and function rooms, two restaurants, two bars and leisure facilities with a pool and spa set in tropical landscape

Results

  • uses the natural themes of the forest, the foliage and fruits of the trees and the light and shadow of the canopy on the forest floor to make up a considered visual language underpinning the essence of the hotel
  • a truly interdisciplinary, inter studio commission for BDP
