I enjoyed hearing the story of Fela, his phenomenal music and legacy. It would be great if the museum could include a video/sound booth with VR headsets where guests can experience some of this. The feeling would be soo much better.

I enjoyed my experience here. Kalakuta museum met all my expectations for a museum tribute to Fela. I was impressed with the walkthrough rooms and the art display throughout the whole building, felt authentic. I took the chance to look at the rooms offered by the hotel service and was very surprised by the upkeep of the decor and cleanliness of the rooms. The ambiance of the rooftop bar was a delightful experience; and the food servings were delicious and well portioned. The overall menu is exactly what you would want in such an environment. I would highly recommend this location to people looking to have a good time at an amazing rate.

M

You want to know a little about Fela before visiting this place, the parking space is a contained area. The museum is a two storey building with a roof top. It’s 1,000 naira for entry. The tour guide is well explanatory and has a wide knowledge about Fela. Several art works, pictures, his room, clothes, shoes, & documents were displayed. People lodge there & there’s a roof top to relax with food & drinks.

Visited with my wife and kids. Had a tour guide to walk us through the entire house. A must visit if you want to learn more about the King of Afrobeats. We also got loads of stuff from the memorabilia store. From there we went to the New Afrikan Shrine. Lagos can be great again if traffic issues are resolved.

I recently visited this Museum late on a Sunday afternoon.. Thinking it was closed I went to the bar on the roof of the building. A guide appeared and immediately opened the Museum and showed me and my friends around. He was excellent and the Museum a wonderful tribute to Fela and his endeavours for his country. I was moved by his story and thrilled to meet one of his sons. Very well set out and a must for a visit to Lagos. The sunset from the Bar on the roof later was breathtaking.
