Ikeja is the administrative capital of Lagos State and one of the Mainland’s main commercial and hospitality centres. It includes distinct districts such as Ikeja GRA, Alausa, Opebi and Allen Avenue.
Why stay or visit
Ikeja is practical for airport access, business meetings, shopping and Mainland dining. Lagos Marriott Hotel Ikeja and Yellow Chilli Ikeja are located in Ikeja GRA, while other commercial activity is spread across the wider district.
Do not rely on the word “Ikeja” alone
The airport terminals, GRA, Alausa and Computer Village are not the same immediate neighbourhood. Check the exact destination before setting out. Traffic around major junctions and the airport corridor can affect short journeys.
