  • 4/5 Ifeoma Adeyinka (. 3 years ago on Google • 301 reviews
    This has got to be my 3rd time here and I must say I'm impressed that businesses still exist within the mall. The foot traffic here is not so high. If that sounds like a thing to you, then this could be a great spot for people who want to spend time away from prying eyes or who avoid crowded malls like me. The restrooms are clean and well taken care of and I am happy the management has improved on some of the facility especially the air conditioning. It's not chilling cool but it's slightly better than the hot hall that welcomed me on my second visit 2 years ago. Hence the 4 star.

    This has got to be the most quiet mall I have ever visited in Nigeria. The traffic of people coming in and out is not very high so if you are thinking of going to a place not very crowded then this may work for you. At the time of my visit it had a functioning escalator. They have quite a number of stores to service customers; there’s a phone store, eye clinic, perfume shop, cinema, game place , different restaurants and loads more.

    The city mall is not what it used to be in its glory days. Nonetheless, it’s not too bad now. It has jewellery stores, clothing stores, décor stores, perfume and beauty products stores, accessories stores, WiFi service provider kiosks, travel agency offices, private business offices, a cafe, and very few restaurants. Parking is good and ample. It’s also quite secure. There’s not much to do in the mall, however. The shops are scanty. There’s also not much variety. There are only a handful of shops, and you can’t count the restaurants on one hand. Additionally, a good number of the shops there don’t have steady business hours. You could go to a shop there and it’d be unexpectedly closed for the whole day. Another challenge with the mall is accessibility. Only the ground floor has an escalator going to the first floor. The lift looks like it’s out of service and like a potential danger zone, so I’ve never bothered to use it. I’ve also never seen anyone use it. The stairs are not too roomy, and it can be a real exercise getting to the topmost floor. The only future highlight is that Awoof Berekete is launching a new outlet there soon.

    I have been here several times and I must say that each time I come here, it does feels like it's my first. The serinity and location of this mall is breath taking. I'd advise you to pay some visit and experience the beauty of this mall.

    It's a big mall with adequate parking space. The KFC outlet in it is neat and spacious enough to host hangouts, dates and meetings. Their high seats are also a favorite.

  • 4/5 Christopher B. 3 months ago on Google • 14 reviews New
    I couldn’t get a wine gift bag though

  • 3/5 Olumide W. 5 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    It's a great place to shop and is quite close to the Tafawa Balewa Square as well as several bus stops. However, the ventilation inside the premise can be a little heavy and can cause light headedness

  • 5/5 owolabi e. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the ambience cool and calm for children outing and it has a Cinema. Lovely place with good packing space

  • 3/5 Temitope O. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited late in the evening. Most of the shops were closed. I only went for Pizza. Overly prized, and limited options of flavours. No one to direct you on the need to pay for your ticket at the extreme before attempting to drive out at the entrance. The car before me hot his bumper ripped off in the process before being directed to go back , make payment before bringing the ticket to the exit gate

  • 3/5 Wemimo A. 1 year ago on Google
    A shadow of its hey days, only the movie theatre is active, and that's in the evenings. It seems the stores that would attract foot traffic are giving it a miss, probably because of price. With infrastructure in need of renovation and a quirky tag system at the gate, it's not encouraging for businesses or foot traffic

  • 4/5 Akan U. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for family and friends to hang out. It's also an exciting place for shopping. Got a big parking space and a good location which is just adjacent to TBS.

  • 3/5 Daris DreamLand A. 1 year ago on Google
    The city mall opposite the iconic Muson centre and just beside The National Museum is a lovely mall with wonderful stores for shoppers and fun lovers... Also a 3D experience store and a gaming store with KFC restaurants makes it one of the main reasons you would be fascinated with this mall

  • 5/5 Adeolu O. 1 year ago on Google
    It's got super stores, clothing boutique, fast food and other businesses. I recently got myself a lovely caterpillar t shirt and Sebago comfy footwear.

  • 4/5 Onitiri Adewunmi “Adore” O. 1 year ago on Google
    Great space..Nice parking place. Got shops in there for clothes, baby items, decorative items etc

  • 3/5 Tolu L. 1 year ago on Google
    Well I am just glad it's still alive...it could have been a great place but the residents dont buy into the mall clearly...

  • 3/5 Francis N. 1 year ago on Google
    Not as popular as it used to be, but it's a nice place to catch a movie, or do some spot shopping. It's proximity to the National Museum, and the Muson Center and convinient eating spots makes it a great place to hang out while waiting for a while.

  • 5/5 Meya Bin W. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Segun B. 1 year ago on Google
    Well, just as the name implies. Multiple business at the location, city mall, restroom etc. It's a nice place also. You have the clothing business, eatery, bakery, confectioneries, and many more. Only challenge is they close early.

  • 5/5 Johnson Adewale I. 1 year ago on Google
    Very lovely place in good environment and security measures are well in place.

  • 4/5 Rosine D. 1 year ago on Google
    A lot of stores were closed because we were there Sunday afternoon. However, since we had been walking, we stopped there and had cold water bottles.

  • 5/5 kingsley u. 1 year ago on Google
    The city Mall is another place that I find very amazing . You don’t necessarily have to sell goods only to have a space there . Services providers have spaces they can use and there’s also a good hall for events and concerts. It’s a Multipurpose Mall just in between the Museum and the Tafawa Balewa Stadium.

  • 3/5 Chinomnso C. 1 year ago on Google
    Didn't get a thorough look around. From the looks of things, it's quite a cool place. The environment is clean and very serene. Looking forward to going there again so I can get a thorough look around.

  • 4/5 Emeka U. 5 years ago on Google
    Lagos City mall is quite large and a multi storey building with numerous stores and offices. The car park is also large enough. There are restaurants, supermarket, boutique, gallery, salon, jewelry shop, and other services. There are escalators on each floor but weren't working as the power was off. The mall was quite dark as it took a long time before electricity was restored. The security lady was not cordial and didn't want a friend to use the restroom. ♿ There's wheelchair parking, Entrace and escalator which sury can assist people with less mobility.

  • 5/5 Adeolu S. 10 months ago on Google
    I attended a session there and the atmosphere was cool. Unfortunately, I could not take a picture . Hopefully, the next time I attend, I get to take one.

  • 5/5 Leke Adelaja (. 5 years ago on Google
    The Citymall is just amazing, I love the fact that it's in a serene environment , all the escalators are working, the toilets are clean and well taken care of. The place generally is pretty cool. It has The KFC on one side , a bar on the other side. It also has a parking space and you have choices of different ATM to choose from.

  • 5/5 Favour A. 8 months ago on Google
    It's nice place to work . Mainly if you are looking for a work space

  • 5/5 silas a. 8 months ago on Google
    A nice place to shop and relaxed. I love the serene environment

  • 4/5 mary e. 2 years ago on Google
    The place was nice as they had a cinema and lots of small office hubs But I didn’t like how KFC was the only decent place to eat an actual meal in the complex

  • 4/5 Henry N. 2 years ago on Google
    It is one of the best kept secrets in Lagos State. Prime location in the heart of Lagos Island and strategically located close to access routes out of the island. Houses multiple retail stores and Cinema for those looking to enjoy a cinema experience away from the crowded scene like other locations.

  • 4/5 Micheal A. 2 years ago on Google
    Citymall Lagos is in conducive environment, with easy access to all customer

  • 4/5 Ayodele O. 2 years ago on Google
    Seems under a new management. Gradually returning to its old glory. Good job and kudos to the Folks running things now

  • 2/5 Jimi C. 2 years ago on Google
    It's rather a shadow of its former self and you now have to pay to drive into the premises. No worth the hassle IMO

  • 5/5 Ofuma A. 2 years ago on Google
    If you are not a Lagos Island kind of person, you may not have sufficient awareness of this mall. But with MUSON centre nearby and Freedom Park poles away, The City Mall is quite a popular place, housing many exotic shops and businesses. Entertainment is fused in, class and premium feel adorns every inch of the entire space. There are bank ATMs, conveniences, and chilling spots for ease and relaxation.

  • 4/5 James N. 2 years ago on Google
    Maybe not hall but most of all you need is in here... And lapizza or whatever i can't remember the name serves really cool wraps

  • 5/5 Oluwadamilola C. 2 years ago on Google

    Cool and calm serene at night. Had sandwich at La pizza,didn’t really like it though but the environment is cool. Great for a sit to talk and drink

  • 2/5 heinrich b. 1 year ago on Google
    A one time trendsetter in a very different Lagos. This mall is in deep need of a total repositioning and revamp. Inner city decay needs a catalyst to rediscover and redevelop itself. There are a few interesting tourist landmarks in the area and it will require strong minds and willpower and selling a vision of strong security redevelopment and reincarnation. Many cities have successfully re-energized the decaying city centre. In Africa consult Johannesburg & Cape Town and bring back tourist and local spenders back to the area.

  • 4/5 Matt M. 1 year ago on Google
    I love visiting shopping centres in different countries, my first in Nigeria was super interesting, giving a small insight into how people live. A fairly quiet Mall but we'll maintained and a small but nice range of shops.

  • 5/5 JAMES E. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a very nice place to do shopping 🛍

  • 3/5 Alexis O. 2 years ago on Google
    The City Mall is a great place to hangout if you are in the area, if you need to meet with friends or have an informal meeting. There are a number of eateries and bar types within it. The challenge is that because it's not very large, choice is limited. So, for some, it's just a familiar experience you keep coming back to, rather than be surprised by a new place. For others, it's a place to chill till the closing hour traffic subsides! Plus, it's just across from the Musical Society of Nigeria and Onikan Stadium

  • 5/5 Sarah K. 1 year ago on Google
    The mall was quiet with less crowd, possibly due to the fact that I went in the morning. I visited the Pharmacy and just walked around the mall. The security was tight and that is one thing I give them credit for. I felt safe in the environment. I recommend it for anyone looking to hangout in a place without too many people.

Its indeed a must visit place
