Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Regency Apartment, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the higher floors (4th floor and above) for a quieter stay. The hotel's location in Tema, a bustling industrial city, can be noisy, but the higher floors are relatively quieter due to the distance from the street.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms near the service entrance, which can be noisy, especially during peak hours. Rooms near the lift may also experience some noise, but it's not as significant as the service entrance.

🪟

Best views

😴

Quietest floors

3rd floor and above

🔊 Noise notes

Be prepared for some street noise, especially during the day, as the hotel is located in a busy area. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the service entrance may lead to some noise from deliveries and staff activity.

Insider tips

Request a room with a balcony, as this may be a pleasant surprise, considering the hotel's amenities are not explicitly mentioned. Also, consider arriving early to check-in, as the 3-star rating suggests a relatively efficient front desk operation.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
