This was the only Marriott brand hotel I found in Accra and all things considered was the option I chose. It's <1km from the airport and they have a shuttle which was nice. It's also the "business hotel" in Accra for people coming in and out. On the positive side, the breakfast buffet was good and they have a smilier food lineup in the lounge. They Ghanaian speciality for the day is usually in both spots. so if that's what you want to eat, you can just go to the lounge for it (lounge access depends on status I suppose). The lounge at the hotel was large and comfortable. It's open nearly all the time and has drinks and snacks (plus food) for you. It's a big plus if you have access to it. The gym was also nice and has what you need for a great workout. I see some reviews calling this hotel "soulless". It's a Marriott. After a day in the heat and "authenticity" of Accra, I actually appreciated coming back to a hotel with a proper gym, a nice hot shower, and a cozy lounge. It's not a small boutique hotel, and that was fine with me for a few days (we stayed and boutique hotels in Kumasi and Cape Coast too) The big win for this hotel is the staff. Aba at reception, Wilford in the lounge, and Grace in the restaurant all made the stay amazing. I had multiple interactions with each of them and left feeling great each time. They were amazing and added to the stay. Two other points: (1) They need to spray the gym for ants. In the dumbbell area, they are owning the floor. (2) Give yourself time for Bolt to arrive, there's not much walkable from the hotel and it's an easy 30min to the Accra sites because of traffic, if not longer. It's cheap, but plan that buffer for everything.
