Coconut Grove Sakumono Hotel

Nice new hotel. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that it is VERY far from downtown Accra, airport, shopping, etc. It is at the very end of Spintex Road, and the front desk lady did not give accurate instructions how to find it. If you look for a GNC Bank, as told, you will creep along in traffic scanning the roadside for miles, a waste of time and energy. The bank is next to the hotel which is at a T junction at the very end of Spintex, and you cannot see either the bank or the hotel from the road because a huge beer billboard blocks sight of it. We made a guess, took the right turn, and I saw the hotel over my shoulder as we drove away from it. Once we turned around and found it, the staff were helpful, friendly, and efficient. The room was big, comfortable, clean; huge bathroom. There was no place to put my stuff in the bathroom, no shelf by the sink. I put my bags of shampoo and skin products on the floor, The next day staff had moved a small table in and picked up my cosmetics from the floor. Good display of lateral thinking. The room service was fast, the food good. My only complaint is no bedside reading lamps. If you are looking for a well-priced place to stay, and do not care how far you are from the hub of Accra, then give this Coconut Grove a try.

I booked this for my mum during her short stay in Accra and she loved it! The place is not perfect but she says their staff are. Judith and Richard were especially wonderful - going out of their way to order Ubers and even food for her. I would definitely book this place for her again next time she's home.
