While Calabar, the Cross River State capital, still maintains the cleanest and most peaceful city in Nigeria, it is also notable for its unique hospitality offerings.
On a visit (whether business or leisure), the city parades quality hotel accommodation options that are pocket-friendly.
One of such hotels in Calabar, aptly tagged ‘Canaan Land’ by the indigenes, is 520 Hotel Group’s Asdam Lodge & Spa. Tucked in a tranquil vicinity, the hotel welcomes you to a world of comfort, great hospitality and sightseeing at pocket-friendly rates.
Located in Cross River State Housing Estate, a semi-residential and semi-business district of Calabar, 520 Hotel’s Asdam Lodge & Spa is a high class hotel with the aim of promoting wellness and hospitality services at the highest standards.
For the business traveler who is after simple, yet functional place, the hotel is your new address whenever you are in Calabar. But for the leisure lover, the elegant feel and serenity of the hotel combine to offer you an experience at the luxury boutique hotel.
From the deluxe, executive, diplomatic to presidential suite, the 50-room hotel offers very spacious rooms.
Yet, visitors can lounge in their own two-story rooms, relax with a drink on the mezzanine level, enjoy a delicious meal at the small but nice restaurant, and splash around in the courtyard pool.
Of course, an experience at the Oyoyo Ayurvedic Spa, Asdam’s flagship offering, is worth the time and money. At the spa, you treat yourself to a well deserved relaxation and rejuvenation. Ayurveda-the science of life- is a traditional medicinal practice native to India and practiced around the world as a form of alternative medicine, and remains a very influential medical practice in South Asia. The ancient health therapy is very much available at Asdam Spa.
Another reason to stay in the hotel is its strategic location along the route of the trend-setting Calabar Carnival. So, guests can view all the carnival floats a few metres from the hotel.
After a busy week or that brain-tasking corporate retreat, the hotel offers guests who love sightseeing memorable tour experience of the world famous Obudu Mountain Resort, Kwa Falls, Nkarassi, Alok Monoliths among others.
While on your way to Obudu or other tourism attractions in the northern part of the state, the 520 Hotels Group also offers you comfort at Akuma Lodge in Ogoja.
Besides the Spa, the swimming pool, the world-class restaurant and bar, among other state-of-the-art facilities combine with the very serene environment to make the hotel an ideal resting place for business travellers and pleasure seekers.
“We are simple, elegant and functional”, the management of the hotel insists while awaiting your visit.
