Poor location
The worst hotel I have ever been. There was no electricity so air conditioning did not work, no hot water to bath and no wifi internet.as a result I did not sleep there.

Thank you for your feedback. It is unfortunate you had this experience. The hotel and management value the opinions of guest patronizing our establishment and are keen on ways of providing service that exceeds the expectations of our guest. We look forward to hosting you with improved services.

Good Hotel but poor management
The Hotel has all the facilities for a standard room but the management is very poor and nonchalant. My room has a window that was bad and a TV that was non-functional. The management never cared to fix it after several notifications. The window was unlocked and TV faulty for the 2 weeks i stayed there. They resulted to lies to justify their nonchalance. I was disappointed because i care much about security. I did not expect heaven and earth but to have a window that is unlocked for 2 weeks in crime-prone environment is outrageous. The cleaner- Patricia did an awesome job and she represents a shining example of quality service. I wish all workers there could follow her example. By and large, all that is needed is a management that is sincere and cares, not one that is only interested in making money even when the services are horrible. The only way to attracts customers is by been sincere and providing a secure and comfortable environment. Also the some of the staff need to learn how to be sincere rather than using lies to cover up their shortcomings. I know that is an acceptable approach for them but such approach is unacceptable, absurd and distasteful and not good for their business.I love the location of the hotel and the facilities at the hotel are great. They are comparable to the ones in the western world. I just wish they have a positive altitude to business the way business should be done.

COMFORTABLE STAY
Rooms were large and comfortable. Full size bed comfortable. Only 6 Tv stations, internet non existent. Servers pleasant. Management very agreeable. security on duty 24 hr. Neighborhood VERY dark, but good lighting with a backup generator. Having a mini fridge and microwave were an advantage. I would stay there again.

Scary location.
This is a hotel located in the middle of nowhere; locating it is a haste and finding it we met the gateman sleeping and the doorman/woman wouldn't open the building for us to check in, therefore we drove to a safer location and booked for our stay. Yet, this hotel wouldn't refund money back to customers and wouldn't answer their phone.
Response from Gyimah on 18 Jan 2014

Hotel is a nightmare
The hotel said on their site that they have a courtesy vehicle available for airport pickups for international visitors, when i arrived in Ghana, they were not there & I had to get a taxi to the hotel. The room was only cleaned/serviced every 3 days or if I asked for the room to be serviced, especially for the first week. the second week, the servicing was much improved without prompting. The staff in general were very helpful. The menu in the room/restaurant had a good range of food, pity a lot of the items were never available or some of the ingredients was not available. The power never stayed on for an entire day for the two weeks I was there. The generator was not working & was in a state of repair since before i arrived. I would not recommend this hotel to visitors to Ghana.

Enoyed!
Our experience at this hotel was awesome. The staff was really nice and accommodating. When visiting, is it nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city of Accra. This nice hotel in Kokobrite was a welcoming refuge from traveling the city during the day. Transportation was very easy for there was always taxis available, and once we learned the tro tro system, it became a very inexpensive journey to the city. The room itself was very clean and the kitchenette was very useful. Some nights and days we lost power and water due to rolling blackouts, but that was to be expected in region that we were in. They brought us breakfast and water to our daily. The pool was very refreshing as well. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Great Hotel for a beach holiday
The hotel is a brilliant hotel which is located 10 mins walking distance from the beach. There is a lovely beach bar/restuarant called Big Millys Place which is excellent. The hotel is very nice. I would stay there again for sure. I had a couple of slight issues with the room. The air con wasn't working well and the room maid did not clean the room properly. However, as soon as I told the deputy manager and Peter the bar tender, they acted very fast and got the room cleaned and tried to sort the aircon out. The gym was getting a refurb. The local food made in the hotel was lovely, breakfast being my favourite. The staff are very friendly and very accomodating. Was a first class service given by the staff.The hotel is located on the outskirts of ACCRA on kokrobitye Beach. It is ideal hotel for those who are not moving around. Getting to central ACCRA can be a nightmare as it takes around 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours from the hotel and to get to the hotel due to traffic.

Never go there.
First of all, the location is extremely inconvenient. Far from Accra and far from beach as well, though it's name is Holiday Beach Hotel. I had to spend another 100 dollars to access and return to Accra. I simply tell you. Never go there, though the rate is comparatively cheaper.

Gutes Hotel, expensiv teures Taxi
Das Hotel ist zu empfehlen für Strandurlaub, der Strand ist mit 10 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen, ist einfacher aber guter Strand, ohne Service, keine Bistro oder Restaurant,ist mehr für Naturfans, aber ich fand es sher gut. Der Pool im Hotelist gut, der Poolservice aufmerksam und freindlich. Die Zimmer sinf gut mit Küche für selbst kochen. Es wird ein Airportshuttle angeboten, aber er steht nicht zur Verfügung, wir hatten angemeldet, es wurde uns ein Pries von 15cedi genannt. aber am Abreisetag wurde ein taxi für uns bestellt, Wir haben den 5 fachen Preis bezahlen müssen. Taxifahrer sind in Accra kriminell.

Freundliches Hotel für jedermann
Es war nicht nur ein Zimmer, sondern eher ein Appartment, das sich in einem Seitentrakt in der Nähe des Swimmingpools befand. Der Pool war sauber und die Außenanlagen sehr gepflegt. Das Zimmer war zudem ausgestattet mit einer Sitzecke, Schreibtisch, einer extra Schrankecke, Flachbildfernseher sowieTelefon. Es war sauber und wurde täglich gereinigt (Handtuchwechsel!). Zwei Klimaanlagen sowie zwei Ventilatoren sorgten für eine angenehme Zimmertemperatur.Leider war die Küche nicht ganz so gut ausgestattet (z.B. fehlte Geschirr, das man sich aber vom Personal besorgen konnte). Das Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit und hatte stets Zeit für persönliche Belange (u.a. Anruf beim Airport zwecks Bestätigung des Flugplans, Taxiruf, etc.). Es wurden Ausflüge und Aktivitäten angeboten und organisiert (z.B. zum tropischen Regenwald oder zum alten Castle aus der Kolonialzeit). Super Essen im Hotelrestaurant, günstig und immer frisch zubereitet! Leider lag das Hotel etwas außerhalb vom Zentrum Accras, der Ort Krokobite war aber fußläufig zu erreichen, wo man einige Dinge einkaufen konnte. Der Strand war ebenfalls fußläufig in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen. Ich hatte viel Spaß!

My favourite hotel in Ghana
This was a fantastic hotel to stay at, and I was there for a week. You get very good value for money, for the price of the "wedding suite", which also had its own kitchen, was very low. Although the hotel is not the newest, and therefore a bit worn down, the cleaning of the room completely impeccable. It was welcoming to come back to the room each day it was cleaned. I really also boasts of service and staff, they made the stay extra enjoyable. Breakfast was served in your room each morning, and had plenty of both coffee, tea and water. A swimming pool was right outside the door, was always welcoming, and were cleaned regularly, and I must also mention that the bar was at the swimming pool, with a pleasant and service minded behavior. If I were to complain about something, was that it sometimes was played too loud music during the day. The hotel is within walking distance, about 5-10 minutes, to a very beautiful beach. It took some time to drive into the center of Accra, but in return asked the hotel with its own mini bus that drove you to the center for a cheap price. It is also worth noting that here you can book airport service, which the hotel makes sure to bring you back and forth to the airport Katoka I can definitely recommend the hotel and is in no doubt that if I am going to Ghana again, this is my absolute favorite hotel, and will be my first choice.

Gutes Hotel, guter Preis für Accra
Dieses Hotel ist gut für einen längeren Aufenthalt. Die Apartments sind gut, ausgestattet mit Küche um selbst zu kochen. Das Frühstück ist schmal aber ausreichend, es ist inklusive. Zum Strand nicht sehr weit. In das Centrum von Accra mit Bus und Taxi sehr weiter Weg. Der Hotelpreis ist angemessen und gut. Aber wer in die Stad Accra möchte, braucht das für das Zimmer gesparte Geld für Taxi und Bus.
