Hotels.ng is a Nigerian online travel agency (OTA) founded in 2013 by Mark Essien.
Essien, a software developer and entrepreneur, identified a gap in the Nigerian travel market for a reliable and user-friendly hotel booking platform. He started the company with just $300, initially focusing on listing hotels in his hometown of Calabar. The platform quickly gained traction and expanded its reach across Nigeria and other African countries.
The company's business model is based on a commission fee charged to hotels for each booking made through its platform. Hotels.ng offers a wide range of accommodation options, from budget-friendly guesthouses to luxury hotels and resorts. The platform also provides a variety of features to help users find and book the perfect accommodation, including detailed hotel descriptions, photos, and reviews from other travelers.
Hotels.ng has become one of the largest hotel booking platforms in Africa, with over 100,000 hotels listed on its site. The company has also expanded its services to include flight bookings and vacation packages.
