The Island Hostel & Café

Great location, cool building, friendly staff

Island Party Hostel was the best hostel experience I’ve ever had! From the moment I checked in, I felt at home and part of the hostel family. Francine truly goes above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome and comfortable. The hostel is clean, comfortable, and the pod beds block sound really well. I will absolutely be back and hope to share more drinks, laughs, and good times with Francine and the crew again soon. Cheers!

Owners and manager made my experience the best it could've been. Not to mention the beautiful layout of the hostel that compliments it's narrow hallways and thoughtful design. Perfect for groups 10-20 people. Couldn't recommend a better hostel in Lagos.

Really nice hostel. Kitchen had so many things we could use. Beds were clean. The staff was so friendly and nice, we all watched a movie together.

I stayed in the hostel just one night, I was not satisfied. It’s not worth the price at all, I expected more and I found better hostels for less. I reserved for an only girls room but there was a guy in it. The rooms are very very small and cannot be closed with keys. The beds are not very comfortable and make so much noise at the slightest movement. There is a bathroom in every floor (three) but in one the shower wasn’t working. The bathrooms weren’t very clean and the towels that were gi...

the most special and amazing place i have ever stayed. in my 4+ months of backpacking and 20+ hostels, i have not stayed in a place so homely, warm, welcoming and comfortable. i felt so at home at the island due to the volunteers, dayna, martina and olaf; along with the beautiful owner, francine. there are so many places to lay around and relax to make yourself comfortable. all the facilities are amazing. i was meant to be there 2 days and stayed for 8! i would come back in a heartbeat 🩷🌈

Disappointing stay. The showers were filthy—mold, grime, and clogged drains. I also left with itchy red bites on my arms, possibly from bed bugs. Cleanliness should be a priority, and unfortunately, it wasn’t here. Staff was polite, but I wouldn’t return unless major improvements are made.

Très bien situé, au centre de la vieille ville, tout près des bars et resto. Par contre, il fait extrêmement chaud dans les chambre, aucune aération. On doit garder la fenêtre ouverte toute la nuit, ce qui fait en sorte qu’on entend le club qui est juste à côté toute la nuit et les gens qui font la fête dans les rues. Aucune intimité dans ma chambre car il n’y a pas de rideau pour le lit. Le logement n’était pas propre du tout (salles de bain et cuisine ne semblent jamais être...

In den Zimmern war es viel zu warm, es gab keine Klimaanlage.

This hostel is one of the best I stayed at in terms of community and atmosphere. Only spent 2 nights and my some great memories The Owners and staff were very friendly and open—I recommend this hostel to everyone The only thing I would say is there is no AC or Fans so rooms were really hot

I thought there were pods like in the photos but there were not. I asked the girl if i could sleep in the lower bunk because the other guest had not arrived yet and i was going to live with boys so would like a bit of privacy. But she said no and didn’t really care. Though cozy and social hostel but a small and not the cleanest hostel.

Super nice people and great location, not the fanciest/nicest hostel but everything you would need

The staff was super welcoming and the vibe in the hostel was great. The rooms were quite small though and there were only 2 bathrooms, which were not cleaned so often. The beds were also quite uncomfortable, but the family feeling that you get in this hostel is definitely worth it.

We had such a great stay here at the island hostel!! The place has a wholesome, homely feeling that I haven’t experienced at any other hostel before, making for a very comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Perfect location, right in the centre of everything you want. The staff were beautiful, shout out the Dayna for having all the advice and just being so lovely to hangout with as well. To the sisters who run the place, you are awesome and so welcoming. Make sure to book here in Lagos, I would...

We loooved our stay at The Island Party Hostel! The vibe was super relaxed and everyone was really sweet to us so we felt like home! Also we loved the hostel itself which has a nice kitchen and loads of cosy corners to chill. We especially enjoyed the terraces! The hostel is located very central which made our stay in Lagos super easy. Would always come back! :)

very social Hostel but very dirty! Only 2 Showers for the whole hostel. Staff is very nice but not into cleaning. It‘s definitely only a hostel for partying.

The location is perfect, in the hostel there is a lot of cute space to hang out. But its very dirty, the shower was never clean i was there 3 days no cleaning. The trash was never out. Some girl got bed bugs. The personnel is no help. They are like 22 years old doing the minimum. Dayna did not want to do anything especially the pub crawl she just show us the first bar and left. They have no first aid kit too.

I had the best time there and the staff and the place were so welcoming! Would definitely recommend if you’re solo travelling and want to meet people:)

This hostel was great! It felt like home the minute we arrived when the sisters who ran the hostel and cafe greeted us and checked us into our rooms. One of the hostel and cafe workers, Dayna, was such a rockstar. She took us on a great pub crawl after she cooked up an amazing group dinner! I would definitely stay there again the next time I am in Lagos.

Great Spot!
