"The Hotel was very nice. The room however had a damp smell and feel throughout the stay. Staff very nice and helpful. Pricing for food disappointing. Major difference between over charge and being ripped off. Two scoops of ice cream $17 USD which is completely ridiculous. The spa was very nice and clean. Hotel within walking distance of shopping and exploring. Very close to the airport. "
"Overall, it’s a great option for business travellers rather than perhaps tourists with children. The location is ideal and makes it very easy to get around the city, especially the tourist attractions.
The standout feature for us was the breakfast. There was a huge variety of options, including delicious traditional Ghanaian dishes such as jollof rice and fish stew, alongside all the classic breakfast items. The room décor was modern, and the shower was excellent with strong water pressure. The staff were consistently lovely, polite, helpful and quick to respond to requests. When a chair in the courtyard unexpectedly collapsed as I sat on it, they assisted me immediately, apologised sincerely and offered drinks to make up for the incident. They also provided an iron we requested arrived promptly.
However, there were a few maintenance issues that affected the overall experience. The double room was quite small and some fixtures and fittings felt worn for a four‑star hotel. Several electric sockets didn’t work, and although the room had USB‑A charging ports, they weren’t all functional and there were no USB‑C options. The fridge acted more like a basic larder, as the freezer compartment didn’t work. Our courtyard‑facing room didn’t get much natural light, so in Accra’s humidity, things didn’t dry easily. The safe in our room was also not working and despite reporting it, it wasn’t repaired during our stay.
Overall, I would still rate the Pelican Hotel as a good place to stay, "
"I booked apartment number A012. it's very clean. some cosmetics need to be made to make long stays more comfortable such as: TV satellite needs to be adjusted to have more channels, Netflix membership would be an added value. Mattress needs to be changed "
"Nice hotel very close to Accra’s international airport. Our room was clean and comfortable and we had excellent hot showers! Dinner in the restaurant was excellent and they were very accommodating in making us vegetarian meals off the menu, even though the main meal was a buffet. While we didn’t use the pool it looked very clean and combo indoor outdoor. We wished we had more time to try it! Free shuttle to and from the airport. Overall a great experience and well worth the fair price!"
