The restaurant is a joke ....i did not stay i only went there to eat and they had only 4 local dishes although they said on phone they were operating with continental dishes. Not worth the trip.

M

May-Anne Arebamen

Highly deserted. Most shops were closed down, the ones left were dark and musty. No directions as it is quite an enormous place and we got lost several times locating places there. They need to revamp the place, such a waste of a great tourist idea and simply space. A great big waste of space.

Tinapa Lakeview hotel and the international convention center are places to visit. The experience and memories lingers on due to the organization of the place. The brain behind the initiation should be commended.

One of the best in Calabar. All inclusive service at the peak of hospitality.
G

Godwin Jibueze

The dream of Tinapa seems abandoned, or perhaps the momentum to realize the end product was lost somewhere in time. The mega shopping complex was a colossal waste as at time of visit.

The concept behind the making of Tinapa is unbelievable, I give kudos to the former governor of Cross River State, Donald Duke, for this brilliant concept.
O

Tinapa ! The main reason we decided to visit was to enjoy our selves which we did not, it looked abandoned and I was disappointed, because the glory of the place has departed.

chuks aniebue

The place has been run down and does not make for a reasonable stay anymore. The staff are very friendly, helpful and really desire to make you feel at home but they are incapacitated by the facilities available to them. The bedsheets are old and torn, the rooms reek of a stale stench and you get a feeling of sickness and repulsion as soon as you get in there. The air-conditioning is faulty, the televisions are merely apertures and you get a general sense of a run down once glorious facility.
