Stayed here for 2 nights in January for a business trip. Was put up here by a client...cheap hotel i guess at about $80USD/night. It's clean BUT very basic......maybe a 1 star in my books. Stay here if you plan on not being in the room for more than just your sleep! Also, i woke up in the AM with... More

In August 2009 I wrote a very complimentary review of this hotel, saying "If you're in Accra on business, stay here." I can't say that any more. The manager from that time appears to have gone and with him has gone the constant checking on service levels. Now, service is very poor. If you want to eat outside, you're ignored... More

Small hotel, very friendly, slightly out of town, but nice. No elevator – and I was on the top (4th floor) – so I trolled up and down the stairs – but kept me in shape as I think Ghanaian food (while delicious) is very fattening. Nice small area outside to work in if needed. As the hotel was fully... More

Stayed at the Highgate for a night after arriving in Accra (we were headed to Kumasi for work the next day). I booked based on proximity to the airport and other travelers' recommendations. All in all, I'd say it was okay - I gather that hotels in Accra are quite expensive for what you get, so I wasn't surprised, but... More

Researched a lot of hotels before our trip and decided on Highgate Hotel. Great choice. It is a little bit away from the thick of things which isn't a bad thing. Osu is a 10 Cedi ride away. Our room is huge by most standards especially for $165 a night. Rooms are clean. There is some mildew around the rim... More

Small, but great hotel for a very good price. No pool - no gym, but nice rooms, a great and stylish restaurant with lounge corner, nice place to sit outside, very good service, a working wireless internet.

I stayed at Highgate Hotel for 10 nights whilst doing business in Accra in mid-late January 2010 and can say that this is has been a very comfortable and relaxing stay. I only booked a single room and was upgraded into the Presidential Suite with it's own large living area and balcony - still not sure why but was very... More

Good points: Staff are excellent, friendly and helpful. Very comfortable louge/dining room/bar area with large flat screen TV. Reliable Internet point in every... More
