Ever thought of setting off a journey down the borders of Nigeria? It might be an interesting idea to stop by Abuja, the country's capital city, a humble cradle of the political economy of West Africa. With the tempting sceneries including the Skyline of Abuja, Zuma Rock and Abuja National Mosque, your eyes will indisputably have something to gorge from the moment you land. In Africa, it is considered not only the wealthiest metropolis in terms of its economic capacity, but ecologically and culturally as well.

But before your escape shall begin, you might need to look for a nice place to stay where you can perfectly spend your night away. Searching for the right digs in the city can be a daunting task especially if it is your first time. Nonetheless, there is always a good one around if you don't mind spending a big buck for a day or two. But if you are one of those who penny-pinch their way to an excellent shoestring holiday getaway, might as well exert a little more effort to locate a hotel in Abuja Nigeria with a great atmosphere at the lowest possible rate.

Cleanliness, apart from the cost, should be considered as a priority. The quick, hot deals on the Internet might not suit you well. Hence, it is very important that you take time to read different reviews for these are the only things that can truly guide you through.

Check-in hours normally differ from country to country. And since most hotels start accepting guests at around 3 p. M. Or 4 p. M., it might be wise for you to schedule your flight close to these hours in the afternoon. But if you arrive half past midnight, don't worry if you cannot exploit the room you pay for one-whole day considering that there is always a good chance for you to get breakfast on the house.

Amenities and facilities are vital for your stay. You might not be able to take a look at these personally while booking online, but you can always ask somebody about it through the online forums. Or, you can check the hotels' ratings and rankings through a trusted Nigerian hoteliers' association. You don't have to call it up. Its website can clearly give you an inkling.

It is best to book during the off-season. Stiff competition among hoteliers likely to happen during this time considering the potential drop of the number of visitors on vacation. If not, weekdays are ideal as well.

Compare rates of akin rooms from different hotels. Sometimes, amenities and services influence the asking price so find out about this by sending them e-mail. Get a quotation from each possible hotel so you can have a sensible choice.

Luxury hotels can undeniably give you the best sleep. But just because all you can afford is a three-star or so does not mean you can never have the kind of accommodation you want. As long as it is guaranteed clean and bug-free, then everything is perfectly fine.

Furthermore, if you are a non smoker, you need to inform the hotel ahead of time about the type of room that you like. Chances are, you will be booked next to several chain smokers and you don't want to end up smothered.
