Best Place To Stay in Accra

My favorite place to stay in Accra. Everyone here is lovely and they really want to make you feel welcome. The location is wonderful as well! I've stayed in just about every room at Somewhere Nice and its always clean and comfortable. Also the food options are really good!

Somewhere Special.

I was beyond impressed with this grand beauty. Firstly, it's more than just a hostel, the owners have managed to create something special. I had booked a private room, which came with heated water, a private balcony and considered sustainable decor to rival any expensive eco boutique hotel. More than anything, this place is an hidden oasis. I ended up staying 4 days!!!

Somewhere nice is fantastic. A really, really excellent hostel. The layout of the rooms and communal areas was great. Lots of space, good, wide ranging internet, airy rooms, good facilities. The success of good design and aesthetic is that it facilitates the community within. Everyone was so happy and gregarious, everyday friendships were formed and forged and expanded upon. The breakfast is incredible. So much fresh fruit, fresh baked bread, pancakes, eggs, porridge, nice coffee. The breakfast staff are wonderful. They always checking ones needs and are happy and singing with beautiful voices. I guess the most wonderful aspect are the staff. They are fantastic. Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, great conversationalists and caring to a fault. Whilst i stayed a lovely young man had a bad bout of malaria and the staff helped him to the hospital, took him food and sat by him. I was really moved by this. I have worked in this industry for over 20 years and struggle to remember such acumen, professionalism and kindness. Like many i extended my stay and will return after further peregrination within the country.

This hostel is not cheap but is actually very good for a hostel of this sort in Accra, and had the added bonus that even though it didn't say we had booked a breakfast, everyone got a complimentary breakfast, and reasonably decent at that.

It grew on me....

The rooms are dark unless you put the lights on even in the day and the communal areas can fill up at times so initially I found it a bit claustrophobic but returning for a second stay after travelling around Ghana, I liked it better and don't think there's much similar at that price point. It's in a good location with lots of facilities around and a very easy-going atmosphere. The breakfast (including the best coffee I had in Ghana) was good, especially on a Sunday when Felicia cooks pinkaso. I\'d go back again.
