The Room
The bed at Moorhouse is one of the best I have slept on. My room had thick dark curtains, the pillows were soft and intensely pleasurable, the bed absorbed every move I made and the linens complimented it perfectly.Sleep was such a delight, and I loved it.
The Food and the Restaurant
The Lounge
Mr. Bright, who waited on Friday, 1st December 2017 would have to be my star of the day. He was warm, courteous and quick to respond to our needs.
The Gym
The gym at The Moorhouse Ikoyi is small but neat and functional.
The Pool Area
The hotel is stylishly designed with lots of greenery which can be well appreciated from the pool area. The ambience is serene and gorgeous and retains some of the old Ikoyi charm and beauty.

Moorhouse have been around for years. It is good to know they still provide value to guests. Good review, Oto. I do have some hotels I can recommend for review. I will send you an email.
Thank you. Much appreciated.
The hotel looks good and neat. The 👎🏼 happens most of the times when traffic is very slow in hotels like understaffed manpower, pool not servicing guests etc. Gimme some of those peppered prawns and fries🍤🍟 for lunch 😂😂

Thank you. Good luck with your plans. 🙂
I love your candid review about the hotel, stating the pros and cons. Seeing the hallway made me suspect it’s an old hotel. All the same, that description of the bed makes me wanna get in there! And the peppered prawns looks good.
THank you. I absolutely loved that bed. The food was great too.
