Western Metal Products Company (WEMPCO) Group, owner of Lagos Oriental Hotel has announced the reopening of the hotel to customers. 

The company made the announcement while reaffirming its commitment to the Nigerian economy through youth empowerment and continuous delivery of world-class hospitality services to foreign investors as well as other critical national stakeholders. 

“The WEMPCO Group remains fully committed to supporting Nigeria in her efforts to develop and grow the nation’s economy through diversification. Our hospitality business, Lagos Oriental Hotel, has been at the forefront of providing international standard services to guests and visitors for over a decade and will continue to do so” Mr. Lawrence Tung, Managing Director, WEMPCO Group said.

The Lagos Oriental Hotel is WEMPCO’s flagship hotel in Nigeria. It is an investment that was first conceived as far back as 1989 when WEMPCO acquired the property where the hotel is currently sited. Built by the Five Cowries Lagoon, Lagos Oriental Hotel is an architectural masterpiece, a paragon in contemporary luxury architecture. It features an elegant oriental culture from interior decorations to its detailed wood work, massive spaces and state-of-the-art facilities.

Speaking on the reopening, Mr. Taiwo Alli, Executive Director, Corporate Affairs WEMPCO Group, stated that facilities which were affected by the unfortunate attack on the hotel last October, had been fully restored. Additionally, the security architecture of the hotel has been recalibrated and improved to further enhance its ability to deliver its signature services.

“From inception, we spared no efforts in making the Lagos Oriental Hotel a place where you would want to keep visiting over and over again. In repairing what was damaged in the attack of last month, we took great care to ensure that the international standards our customers have come to expect from us, were strictly adhered to”. 

The Lagos Oriental Hotel has one hundred and thirty-six (136) exquisitely designed rooms and suites, all with a breathtaking view of the Lagos Lagoon, the bustling city scene and the Atlantic Ocean. Its four (4) restaurants’ menus are designed to satisfy customers’ most discriminating palate.

With broadband Internet access in all the rooms, outdoor and covered car park, event and meeting venues, fitness center and a 20-meter outdoor swimming pool among other facilities, the Lagos Oriental Hotel is indeed a beacon of comfort and excellence. 

In the words of the Executive Director, Corporate Affairs at WEMPCO Group, Taiwo Alli, “It is a beautiful experience to have”.

To mark the reopening of the hotel, the management has also launched a promotion tagged “Hello Again”. The promotion which runs from November 16 to November 30, 2020, offers a series of discounts to customers. With the “Hello Again” promotion, customers will pay as low as N45,000 per room, get a welcome bottle of wine, complimentary breakfast for 2, complimentary mini-bar and more.

Speaking about the promotion, Taiwo Alli says it is a way to say welcome back to customers after the forced closure experienced recently.  “The Hello Again promotion is simply Lagos Oriental Hotel saying to customers, we are here and we care for you”.
