The access to this property was terrible and driver from the airport regret taking me there despite 250 cedis charge, the access road will be unpassable if it rains, very bad roads, very unmotorable roads to this hotel, very far away from the city and everything shown and writing about the hotel is not true at all, I will never go back to this hotel and I will never recommend it to anybody visiting Accra, It costs over 100 cedis by uber to get to the market called makola at the centre of the city, overall this type of hotel should not be on expedia.

Property is very nice and up to date. Check in for foreigners is like getting a home loan at a mortgage company. I’m not the one to fill out multiple questionnaires for something I booked online. My identification should be enough. Road access to the property you will need an all terrain vehicle or something that can handle a bad road and a mini water flow depending upon which direction you come. I see this being a nicer stay in the future once the roads are complete and they work out a few administrative kinks.

I've traveled to Ghana twice and have stayed at Grand Star both times. The rooms are nice and they are cleaned daily. Front desk staff are friendly. The breakfast was enjoyable. I am a picky eater so I didn't try everything but it all looked good. The roads leading to the hotel are bad, I think that is the hotel's biggest drawback. Any time a stay in Ghana will be 2 weeks or less I plan to stay here. Any longer I would want an apartment so I can have a full kitchen. The rooms have a small fridge and they do offer room service. The menu has a lot of seafood items and I don't eat seafood but what I did order was good.
