Protea Hotel Nike Lake is situated on the banks of Nike Lake in Enugu, the center of Nigeria`s coal-mining region and the capital of Enugu State. It is a typical sprawling Igboland city of nearly 500 000 inhabitants (the state having 3.361 million inhabitants) is of limited interest to pure leisure travellers, but rather more interesting to the corporate GUEST. The hotel was previously the headquarters for the Igbo (Biafran) Army in the tragic civil war and was fortunate to survive pretty much intact.

Nike, mean "with power" in the local Igbo language, is reminiscent of the past. The city`s main street, running roughly nort-east to south-west, is Okpara Avenue, along which are many businesses, banks and the post office nearby.
