A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Akure, the capital of Ondo State, for travellers who want a pool, a restaurant and free parking without stepping up to a higher class. It covers city-centre addresses, Alagbaka and estates further out.
Staying in Akure
Akure is the capital of Ondo State, known for its granite hills, the Deji of Akure's palace and the Federal University of Technology, which gives the city a youthful energy. Visitors come for local crafts, regional cuisine and festivals such as the Ogun Festival. The dry season from November to March is the most comfortable time to explore outdoor attractions like the Idanre Hills. The hotels on this list sit in different parts of the city. Others stand further out: Imperial Boni Hotels and Resorts and Groovy Hotel in Ijapo Estate (2.2 km), Bliss World Resorts & Hotels (1.5 km), Fingerprints Hotel (2.8 km), 2508 Hotel and Suites Akure (4.1 km), Towlab Hotel & Suites (4.5 km) and AL BA Royal Hotel & Suites (5.7 km). Couples and short-break visitors tend to prefer the central and Alagbaka addresses, families the quieter estates, and business travellers the hotels with meeting rooms and business centres.
