伊拉塔酒店(Erata Hotel)

Leuk restaurant aan de rand van het zwembad, ideaal om ‘s avonds nog een drankje te doen

We needed an overnight in Accra after arriving on the BA day flight from London. This hotel is fine and we had an OK meal. Rooms are large. WE had an issue with the hot water but the friendly staff eventually sorted it out.

Went as part of a tour group with Dr. Kofi Lomotey. Do not recommend hotel or tour (excursion). Low quality rooms and food. Put in upper level room. Very basic. No view of the area. Very basic bathrooms. Limited water and flushing toilets. Took cold showers. Not fun. Hard towels. If you want to use the mini fridge, you can’t plug in the lamp. TV was limited to preaching. Felt like a religious cell. No elevator, uneven surfaces, many stairs without handrails and height and width of steps were not uniform combined with slippery tiles made the hotel dangerous for travelers with disabilities or walking challenges. Hard towels. Limited water or working toilets. Where and how does the food staff wash their hands when preparing food? Food was the same each day. Low quality white bread, processed egg dish, leftovers from last night’s dinner, corn flakes, oa**eal, Tang to drink. In a country that grows food, we were served overly processed food. Dinner- rice, rice, rice, beans, plantains, cabbage, fried fish and overcooked chicken. I really missed fresh vegetables, green vegetables and fresh fruit. Sometimes the overcooked chicken was in a salty sauce. Very spicy and highly salted food. Take your blood pressure medicine. Meeting rooms were not clean. We used two different meeting rooms both had old dishes and items in the corners. I guess they were left from previous meetings. No coverings on tables or water available in meeting rooms. Did I mention one was on an upper level with no elevator? Did not use the pool. It did not look clean or well maintained. Sadly, this was the better of the three hotels we were taken to stay in. Very low quality in an old hotel. Knock it down and rebuild. Don’t go!

The reception staff is very rude, especially one dark chubby lady who was in my opinion trying to scam me. She charged me $10 for an extra key even after i explained to her that i had left it in my collegues room and the cleaning lady will find it under the table as we were rushing for a meeting and couldnt go back in to look for it at that poin in time. At checkout she then tried to force me to pay in cash (euros) even though i told her i prefer to pay by card to keep track of my expenses plus i did not have local currency (GC). She then decided that if im going to pay by card then i will need to pay an extra 60GH ($6) for each of my bills and seeing as theyre holding my luggage i had no choice but to pay. My experience before this incident had been okay but this just made me think their scammers. Breakfast lacks variety and their food is not hat tasty. Other than that enjoyed my stay, Thier WIFI, AC and water pressure was excellent.

We didn’t stay here but it had been arranged for us to have a room to shower and change before going to the airport for our flight home to the UK. There were 8 of us in our group and we were all given a room each. Lovely big room with an excellent shower and plenty of hot water. We then ate in their Restaurant, excellent choice of food, prompt service and friendly staff. Recommended.

We stayed for one night at the Erata Hotel as we headed west from the Ho region. The hotel isn't located in the best area, especially if you're interested in exploring central Accra and don't have a vehicle. The day we arrived they had no double bed rooms available although that is what we had booked - so we ended up with a 2 bedroom apar**ent -- certainly more than we needed for one night! The problem was that there were no pillowcases or top sheet on the bed, just a fuzzy "blanket" of questionable cleanliness. We called and asked for sheets but it seemed no one knew where to find any so they simply brought new pillows (that had cases) from another room. The room, although large, was definitely dated and the included breakfast was very basic. The best we can say about the hotel is that they had great WiFi.

The hotel was not very clean--the bathrooms were quite dirty, as were the common spaces. The staff were not particularly friendly or helpful.

Staff very helpful and it is convenient to airport. Food nice.

A old style hotel with all facilities. Big rooms, good wifi, near the airport. Has a restaurant with room service. Lots of parking and quite near the airport. It has a business centre, wifi rooms etc.
