Like a lot of hotels in the airport residential area, which as the name suggests is an area basically adjacent to the airport; doesn't have a pool.

Front view of hotel

Apart from that its not short on facilities, the room rates perhaps reflect that the hotel is of an international standard, the prices being near the top end of standard rates.

There are seven apartments with kitchenettes,and 10 twin rooms, rooms are what might be expected for the rates "large" as can be seen in the photograph.

I measured one room at 21 feet by 25 feet, you might say the kids wont get under your feet in that room !

There is satellite TV, Mini bar and in-room safe. The hotel electricity supply is backed up by a generator, so you wont be looking for a torch when one of those sporadic "lights out" moments occur, which can be anything from a couple times a night or no problems for a week or two in my experience. The restaurant is open until 8.30pm at night,

Example of room

The style of the hotel is traditional oldie worldly type ,as you can see from the photograph the hotel has its own charm and is miles away from a large rabbit hutch box you often see in Europe.

The hotel is of international standard, but is family run ( on the day i visited the son of the owner was on reception!) giving the advantage of facilities and comfort but with a more personal approach, unlike the more formal feel you get with some international chain hotels.

The staff can carry out supportive business administering tasks such as helping you with Emailing, Fax, Photocopies, Internet browsing. Also staff can help with car hiring, and will give advice on places of interest, and inside tips where to go, in Accra.

A place to go then when your not too tight on budget, want a bit of pampering, and want friendly approachable staff around you.
