Staying in Port Harcourt
Port Harcourt is the centre of Nigeria's oil and gas industry and a major Niger Delta port city, still known as 'The Garden City' for its planned layout and greenery. Visitors come for business and conferences, and to explore the surrounding delta; landmarks include the Pleasure Park, the Port Harcourt Tourist Beach and the Isaac Boro Park, while the Alliance Française and the annual Port Harcourt Book Festival give the city a growing arts scene. Pockets of calm remain at the Rivers State University campus and the Mangrove Reserve.
These 3-star hotels sit in several parts of the city. Most cluster close to the centre: Labake Cottage Hotel, Zucchini Hotel and apartments, Manor Hotel, Le Eldera Hotel and Echelon Heights Hotel are all within 1.2 km, and Casoni International Hotels And Suites, Sweet Spirit Hotel and Suites Danag Port Harcourt and Bayview Resorts And Hotels Limited sit at 1.7 to 1.8 km. Others are further out, including Crownsville Hotel Airport Road and Crownsville Hotel near Igwurita, Portland Resorts Hotel Portharcourt, Leadwort Hotels and SS3 Boutique Hotel. The mix suits business travellers, families and couples on a short break who want an outdoor pool, a spa or a restaurant on site.
