The Federal Palace Hotel is a 150-room hotel that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, located in the commercial hub of Victoria Island in Lagos. Established in 1960 as the country's premier international hotel, it was originally owned by the Victoria Beach Hotel, as part of the A. G. Leventis trading group.〔("Interview with Bashorun Adebisi Alli Adesanya, Executive Chairman, Nigerian Bottling Company and Mr. Andreas Loucas, Managing Director of A.G. Leventis (Nig.)

== History ==
The Federal Palace Hotel is a Sun International property. Sun International – best known for its Sun City Resort in the North West Province, Rustenburg – traces its roots back to 1969, when the Southern Sun Hotel Company was created with South African Breweries and Sol Kerzner joining forces.
When Nigeria gained its independence from Britain in 1960, it was in the main boardroom of the newly constructed Federal Palace Hotel that Nigeria’s independence declaration was signed. This boardroom is now one of the main features of the hotel’s casino. The official celebration of Nigeria's independence took place in the hotel's Independence Hall, which also in 1977 hosted the summit of Heads of State of the African Union (formerly Organisation of Africa Unity) and the Festival of African Arts and Culture (FESTAC).〔("N5.6bn New Federal Palace Hotel for Launch Today" ), Financial Nigeria, 31 July 2008.〕
The Federal Palace Hotel is associated with the Heritage Environmental Programme that serves to recognise and identify environmentally responsible companies and products in Nigeria.
