Das Eigentum — Access Inn
Access Inn is a no-fuss 3-star hotel near Kotoka International Airport, catering to short-stay travellers and business visitors who need a clean, quiet room close to the terminal. The lobby feels like a functional transit lounge: polished tiles, a small seating area with potted plants, and a reception desk run by staff who know the flight schedules. It’s not a place for a holiday — it’s a sensible stopover if you’re arriving late or leaving early.
Chroniken von Accra
Accra grew from a 17th-century Ga fishing village and a trio of European forts into Ghana’s capital and most populous city. Independence in 1957 brought modernist buildings like the Black Star Square and Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, while later decades added chaotic markets and a growing skyline of glass office blocks and hotels. Today Accra is a vibrant hub of Ghanaian music, art, and street food, where colonial-era Jamestown rubs up against the polite suburbs of Osu and Airport Residential. Its cultural identity is proudly pan-African, with a fast-moving economy and a welcoming, if traffic-heavy, pace of life.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Accra-Guide →Die besten Monate
August to November: these are the driest months after the long rains, with lower humidity, bluer skies, and fewer mosquitoes. December can also be fine but gets busier.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and December: July has the major Aboakyer festival in nearby Winneba and the start of the Asante cultural season, while December draws diaspora visitors for Christmas and the Chale Wote street art festival. Hotel prices in Accra double or triple from mid-December to New Year, and airport routes clog up.
Budget Schulter Saison
May and June: the long rains keep tourist numbers down, and many hotels offer discounts of 20-30%. You’ll get cheaper rooms and a quieter city, but pack a strong umbrella.
Wetter & Verpackung
Accra’s humidity averages above 75% year-round, so cotton and linen clothes are essential. For July, pack a light rain jacket for sudden downpours and a pair of quick-dry shoes for wet pavements.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Accra
- The Ministry of Roads and Highways began a major resurfacing project on the N1 highway near the Tetteh Quarshie Interchange in May 2026; expect delays when travelling between the airport and central Accra.
- The new terminal at Kotoka International Airport (Terminal 3) is fully operational, with expanded duty-free and a faster baggage claim; check-in 2.5 hours before domestic flights is now recommended.
- Several new food stalls have opened in the Osu Night Market along Oxford Street, offering local dishes like kenkey with fried fish and jollof rice — a good option for visitors wanting to eat near the hotel without heading into town.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Access Inn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the courtyard or side street, away from Otsew Street. These upper floors reduce street noise from the Osu Ako Adjei junction and offer better airflow.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor overlooking Otsew Street – direct noise from taxis, tro-tros, and street vendors. Also skip rooms near the lift shaft or staircase on any floor; the lift can be rattly and the stairs get foot traffic until late.
Best views
The best view is from rooms at the rear (courtyard side) on floors 3-4 – you see rooftops and the odd palm tree, not the main road. Front-facing rooms just see the busy street and shops.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest – furthest from the street-level bar and reception area.
🔊 Noise notes
Otsew Street is a busy residential-commercial road in Osu – expect honking, music from shops, and occasional late-night chatter from nearby bars. The hotel's own bar can be audible on lower floors. Mosques in the area call early morning prayer – upper floors muffle it slightly.
Insider tips
1) Check-in can be slow – phone ahead to confirm your booking if arriving after 8pm. 2) Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the back when you book; they often honour requests for quiet. 3) Breakfast is basic but the kitchen does decent fried plantain – ask for it.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top-Attraktionen in Accra
💡 Go early, around 7am, when it’s cooler and less crowded. Keep valuables hidden and haggle politely—half the starting price is a fair target.
💡 Visit on a weekday morning when the square is mostly empty. The monument is unguarded, so just walk up—no ticket needed.
💡 Focus on the basement—it has the best displays on pre-colonial life. Plan for 45 minutes max; the air conditioning is a bonus.
💡 Arrive before noon to avoid the heat. Bring a hat and water, and skip the guided tour if you’re short on cash—the exhibits are self-explanatory.
💡 Avoid Sundays unless you want a packed crowd. Go on a weekday for a serene experience, and buy fresh coconut from the vendors for 2 GHS.
