About us

An independent apartment hotel with a very simple promise

Service, serenity and security, the three things we decided every guest should be able to count on, whether they book one night or one year.

Our story

Built in Calabar, for people staying in Calabar

Adrian's Place began with a single building on the Asari Eso Layout in Ikot Eyo, opened to serve visitors who wanted more than a hotel room: proper space, a kitchen, reliable power and someone on the premises at all hours.

Word travelled. Carnival visitors, oil and construction crews, NGO teams, wedding parties and families returning home all became regulars, and the Annex on MCC Road followed to put the same standard right in the centre of the city.

That same standard now guides what we are preparing next: a well-managed address on Lagos Island, opening soon.

Beyond our doors

How the places around us reflect what we stand for

We picked our addresses for what is around them as much as for the buildings themselves. Here is how the neighbourhood carries our promise out into the city.

Calabar Marina Resort
Service

Calabar Marina Resort

Good service does not stop at the front door. Our concierge will book a driver to the Marina, point you to the best time for the cable car and have a cold drink waiting when you get back.

Drill Monkey Rehab Centre
Serenity

Drill Monkey Rehab Centre

We chose quiet neighbourhoods on purpose. From Calabar, the Drill Monkey sanctuary, the Marina waterfront and Obudu's mountain air are all easy escapes after a busy day.

Cross River National Museum

Exploring a new city is easier when you know your base is safe. We share trusted routes and drivers for museums, markets and Carnival nights, so you can enjoy the day and come home with peace of mind.
