Agatha O.★★★★★ — One of the best hotels that resonates with me, the staff here render a wonderful service, they are well-dressed and polite. The rates for their drinks (especially the “beer”) is quite pricey, considering it’s within Nigeria!
Tankat J.★★★★★ — Benue shocked me that they have such a place. It’s a great place to stay especially when you come from another state
Ezekiel F.★★★★★ — Good hotel but definitely not a 5 star
MAS ED★★★★★ — For Makurdi, man this place is the bomb. I truly love the arrangement, entrance on one side, exit on another, a big even centre, arranged in a manner that does not affect the rooms and the swimming pool is clean, the environment is neat and serene from the noise of town. The light supply is good, but then again, based on your budget, I think the least room is 30k plus...., there about, it has a dedicated area for gym and bar to cool off. Sure, your budget will do the talking here. For a place like that in Makurdi, it deserves all the stars it gets from me.
Onwuchekwa C.★★★★★ — A relatively small hotel situated within a quiet environment.
The rooms are spacious.
However, a few observations:
1. There is nor bar in the hotel and alcoholic beverages are not served (but you can bring yours)
2. There are very limited options for the complimentary breakfast
3. My bathroom was always leaking water all over the floor after having a shower and foot towels were not provided
4. Most of the electric sockets in my room were not working
5. Above all, their customer service needs a while lot of improvement
Nana E.★★★★★ — Absolutely enjoyed my stay. Room was lovely, Internet access 💯, light was constant and the staff were soooo well behaved, courteous, and helpful. I would definitely stay here again 👌
Farmers M.★★★★★ — A place like home with good reception and well coordinated staff
Chinedu E.★★★★★ — Very nice hotel. The location is good, the rooms are decent, comfortable bed, nice bathroom and house keeping is good. I would have loved a gym, pool and complimentary breakfast. So 4star.
Agatha O.★★★★★ — Palm garden is a beautiful place full of nature.
The environment is convenient for relaxation, little get together, birthday parties.
Good Nigerian dishes are served here;rice and stew with chicken, fish , goat or beef, there's also semovita, pounded yam, eba with variety of soups served here also.
There's grilled fish, pepper soup, peppered chicken, goat and beef.
Agatha O.★★★★★ — The rooms here are superb , the hotel is well secured, there’s a pool and beside the pool is an outdoor spot that could serve as a bar/ restaurant or just a casual spot for sitting.
I may not be able to describe everything, go and experience it yourself darling.
Ibrahim T.★★★★★ — Except for not having good television stations to watch, the hotel is GOOD!
kakam N.★★★★★ — Nestled in the heart of Makurdi, Nigeria, Signature Exclusive Resort is a beautiful, homely & well run hotel. Adorned with an inviting ambiance & modern amenities, the resort serves as a perfect place for both leisure & business travelers. It is located just off the Abuja - Makurdi Highway at 1 Dr Ame Idoko St, off Konshisha Street, Wurukum, Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria. Positioned directly behind the O.G Winners Plaza (a GSM/assessories plaza), it is beautifully designed & constructed with burnt bricks, giving it an astonishingly natural look. By every means an exceptionally clean hotel. The rooms are equally elegant & well laid out with all the necessary amenities provided. The resort features 32 elegantly furnished rooms, each equipped with air conditioning & flat-screen TVs etc. The estimated rates range from 20,000 Naira - 60,000 Naira per night depending on the grades. Therefore, guests can choose from 3 exquisite room types, depending on your pocket or budget. The furnishings provided expectedly also follow this pattern. Complimentary Wi-Fi is also available. Smoking in rooms is strictly prohibited & may attract a huge fine if contravened. The resort features cozy rooms designed for relaxation & comfort, ensuring that you feel right at home during your stay. However, check-out is required by 11 AM, which I think is a bit harsh. An on-site restaurant churns out delicious traditional Nigerian & international cuisine. There is a well-stocked bar/lounge which is co - located with the restaurant. In addition to the main restaurant, there is a cozy lounge area where guests can relax & unwind. This inviting space is perfect for socializing with friends or enjoying a quiet moment alone. There is constant electricity supported by three giant diesel generators, which are on standby for times of power failure. For events, conference halls & meeting spaces are available & adequately equipped for weddings, birthdays, corporate events etc. A fitness center/gym & laundry services are also provided. There is ample & secured parking area provided, including wheelchair-accessible parking. Uniformed security personnel are also engaged. They are very friendly. Furthermore, the staff in the hotel are extraordinarily humble, friendly & helpful when engaged. They should keep it up. Interestingly, the hotel is located just a short drive away from the Makurdi Airport (MDI), approximately 15 to 20 minutes drive. However, I don't think that this airport is presently fully functional. Signature Exclusive Resort is indeed a beautiful & functional hotel. I consider it a budget hotel due to it's affordability, putting into consideration it's natural ambience, outstanding amenities & services generally. Whether you are visiting for business or leisure, the value provided ensures that one can enjoy all the comforts of a premium stay at a fraction of the cost. My stay was a good experience
Umar U.★★★★★ — The suite was big but old and dysfunctional. Sockets not working and exposed, room had a terrible smell. Bathroom and toilet has non functioning fittings. While the hall may seem grand, the rooms were unimpressive.
ene A.★★★★★ — Racism in Eyah hotel and suite, I came in to eyah to make bookings and we were told foreigners were not allowed to stay at their hotel, worst of all was that the foreigner was present as I was being told off, hospitality my foot, put on your website no foreigners allowed instead of making us come in and be embarrassed in such way
Indu A.★★★★★ — Staying at cardiff resort was nothing short of exceptional.from the moment i arrived,i was immerse in pure luxury,elegant decor,attentive staff and atmosphere that felt both exclusive and welcoming,the rooms are spacious and beautifully designed with every comfort thoughtfully provided when you are relaxing in the lounge,dining at the restaurant or simply enjoying the stunning views every moment feels special its not just a hotel its an experience you will want to relieve again and again
Terver T.★★★★★ — Good Place to relax when you are in Makurdi, Call it your second home, but they need to work on their maintenance. I use to be here anytime I’m in Makurdi and I have seen the maintenance culture decline. Hopefully they improve soon. But this is better than most Hotels
Umoh P.★★★★★ — One of the worst places to ever think of spending a night... Every night by 12 am till morning, just don't expect light.
The hotel is always dark. Such a bad experience., I have to stay outside the hotel because everywhere is dark, thanks for the street lights.
david I.★★★★★ — this place is outstanding in service and quality
Orya J.★★★★★ — A place where beautiful rooms, bar, and environment is birthed. With experience workers who are always ready to make the needs of their customers meet.
Come one, come all and have a wonderful time out here with us and you won't regret it all.
Francisca P.★★★★★ — Terrible experience. The air conditioners don’t work properly — the only one that works is always set to 27°C, which makes the rooms unbearably hot. Ventilation is poor and the supervisor is extremely unprofessional. Everything about this place is disappointing. I do not recommend it at all.
Adebayo O.★★★★★ — It's not accessible for persons with disabilities and they will need to improve on that
Agatha O.★★★★★ — This hotel has 2 sides the new and the old one.
I prefer the new one, it's better than the old one because it's neat compared to the other.
I love their services, their women receptionists are well dressed and mannered .
Augustine J.★★★★★ — I lodged here for about a week and I can tell you I enjoyed my stay, very good location close to the road, even if there's no electricity, they usually put on their Gen from 6pm to 8am the next morning, very affordable room for as low as 5k, good water, a bar, plasma TV in all rooms it's a good place, quiet environment
Richard L.★★★★★ — No Electricity, no stand by generator. I hate my experience there
John I.★★★★★ — The hotel is living on old glory. No maintenance at all. The once beautiful rooms are now a shadow of itself. The management should prioritise maintenance abeg.
