Guest Reviews

• Vincent (10/5): - Ambiance in the facility excellent, courtesy staff, excellent food and great place to have fun in a family atmosphere
• Timothy (10/5): - The room and staff were great!
• William (10/5): - Nice, comfortable stay in a vibrant and friendly area. Great food, wonderful, atmosphere. Many staffmembers knew me by name and were always friendly and helpful. A big "Medasse!" to Samuel, Grace, Abel, Nicholas, Albert, Doris, Emmanuel, Ishmael, Laurence, and many more for a wonderful stay. Special thanks to Latif and Laud for their conversations and laughter.
• Anita (10/5): Unique stay - Good location. Super cute hotel. Staff wonderful. Clean, spacious room. Affordable meals and drinks.
• Wesley (8/5): - I have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions. Breakfast was not included on this trip and tge rates were a bit higher. Still, I really like this place.
• Wesley (8/5): - The staff is very friendly. The location is excellent. The view from the rooftop was terrific. This wasn’t my first visit and I did notice the cost per night had increased. This might impact my future decision.
• Janika (10/5): - Loved it!!! The rooms was spacious and amazing atmosphere
• Lisa (8/5): - This is a very nice hotel quite niche. The staff are very accommodating . Good location and has lots of nearby shops. I recommend this hotel. Only downside is the pool was under renovation.
• Zana Iona (8/5): - Nice clean and well priced hotel within walking distance to bustling Oxford street. The living room area of our apartment although very clean was also very bland with no form of decor anywhere.
• Frekyla (10/5): - Love the property and staff members were great. Absolutely loved my stay.
• Andrea (8/5): - The staff at the front desk in particular, but all of the staff, were friendly and helpful. The apartments were spacious and everything was in working order. The rooms and common areas were clean. The restaurant upstairs was a good place to work or eat at the end of the day - nicely appointed with a view of the ocean. Thank you!
• Nina (10/5): - I love the Apartment style of these hotels, it was very comfortable! All of the facilities and appliances worked and everyone that worked at the front desk were so kind! Definitely coming back!
• Odjuan (10/5): Our Stay was Peaceful and Enjoyable #RootsHotel - This was our first of many trips to the beautiful paradise of Ghana and we couldn’t have asked for a better spot to chill out and R&R. It is centrally located, on a quiet street in a bustling neighborhood with lots of eateries and markets. The property is safe, clean and everyone have been nothing but friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again. I would 💯 recommend if you are looking for a true local experience.
• Dawn (10/5): - Cute and quaint boutique hotel. Staff was professional and courteous. Security was top notch and the food was amazing.
• Kwame (8/5): - I think it is a good hotel The area, though not dangerous, was not too high-end
• Yunus (2/5): - The management and reception are very bad, they do not help, the restaurant manager is rude and not polite. The hotel management needs to receive training in hotel management. I will definitely not stay again and do not recommend it to anyone.
• Emery (10/5): - Enjoyed the staff.
• Jeremy (10/5): - I stayed a week in February and had an amazing time. The hotel staff were super attentive, gave excellent service. They were kind, courteous and went out of there way to make my stay a very pleasant one. The hotel is located on a quiet side road off the busy Oxford street. Everything you need you can find on Oxford street. There is no longer a jacuzzi but you have access to nice pool no more than a 60 second walk. Breakfast was great, great selection of choices that changed daily. Rooftop bar was lovely, great service and drinks at a decent prices. Special thanks to the management team, they really made my stay top tier. I highly recommend staying here!
• MoreVu5 (8/5): - Thank you for a pleasant stay!
• Carol (10/5): - The hotel was very clean. The staff was friendly. It is in a great location to restaurants. The pool was only a one minute walk away.
• Sofia (10/5): - It's conveniently located in Osu and the staff is accomodating.
• prince (10/5): - Great place to stay .
• Libby (10/5): Fantastic - Absolutely amazing stay. The staff were all fantastic and the room was very comfortable and homely. The food was delicious. I really recommend staying here!!
• Conchita (2/5): - Unfortunately, I won't be able to stay at this hotel anymore. I’ve stayed 3 times and was pleased until the pass time. I left an item in the room when I checked out. I called hours after I checked out and 2 other days to ensure they had the item and i could pick it up before i left Ghana. After multiple calls and having 3 different people telling me they would call me back to confirm they have the item, I received no call. It's not professional to continue to tell a customer that you will call them back and don't. As well, everytime i called and got a new person, no one knew what i was talking about and had to explain all over again. Without getting confirmation they had the item I did not return to the hotel. Still no word from them. I can't trust to stay at a hotel that will take your things if you leave it in a room and will not return calls when you do have an issue. I will take my business elsewhere.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great stay. Will be back. - Great, clean place in the middle of hip area. Parking was on site. Great water pressure in the shower. Comfortable bed. Highly recommended.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Will always be back! - Warming welcome, quick check in process, clean and comfortable room, very friendly staff, good food and exciting times on the roof top bar
• Sofia (10/5): - Loved the location. Very central to Osu shops and restaurants. The 7th floor views were nice at the breakfast area. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
• Joy (6/5): Not bad but can be noisy at night-early morning - Our stay here was decent, the facilities are okay and the rooms are okay. I found it a tad bit noisy as it is located in the heart of the city and there are multiple nightclubs and restaurants beside it. The staff were also not as responsive as i'd have expected but overall, not a bad stay.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - If you are staying in Accra, this is the place to stay. The staff is super helpful and friendly, the hotel is well maintained and clean, the rooms are modern and nice and have everything you need and the location is perfect (close to the airport and all the places you might need.) Thanks for a wonderful stay!
• REINALDO (10/5): - Pleasant and caring staff Would recommend to friends and family
• Verified traveler (10/5): Would go back! - Friendly staff, good food, convenient location, comfortable stay. I’d recommend you call or email to double check what amenities are in your room since it might not match the photo.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location and services . Close to all major attractions
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Excellent staff and service. My only recommendation is that the internet connect was unreliable and difficult to maintain. More upgrading is needed if we are to use this hotel in the future for business needs.
• Sherry (4/5): Bad - Jacuzzi wasn’t working and bar attendant(a lady) up on the roof top was very rude, no drinking water in the fridge, service was really bad
• Babatee (8/5): - I would like the property to have a swimming pool.
• Beverly (10/5): - It's beautifully decorated, the staff is extremely helpful, and it's very well positioned for banks and restaurants. I've never been to Ghana before and it was a very comfortable way to figure out the lay of Accra. Also, a rooftop bar.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Room size was ok for purpose. First apartment given was noisy, could hear all the talking and shouting from street. There was a party in the next apartment the first weekend we were there which went on till early hours of the morning. Avery noisy floor.
• Shervonne (8/5): Nice little place - Rooms where what USA clients usually get in a hotel. Please know the exchange rate because unfortunately some people will try to cheat u of your money. It was our best second place to stay outside of the hotel. Last thing, power washing of the bathroom floor will make this better
• Verified traveler (8/5): - situated in a nice area, not far from Oxford street in Osu
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The bed was comfortable and the bathroom neat. The Wifi speed was were poor.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - TV had no channels nothing done despite complaints Staff were very friendly
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Cleanliness and the availability of all essential amenities. Excellent location and great car park.
• Stephen (10/5): Quiet, fun place in Osu - great quiet place with solid service in a fun, busy, walkable area.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The rooms were clean and the dinning area and bar were good places kept clean and well organized
• Jesica (8/5): - Great hotel with wonderfull staff. It was my second time staying in the hotel. The water coming out of the shower was a little bit weak.
• Keith (4/5): Disappointed - Problems checking in. Was given an inferior room to the one I’d booked. Some of the electrical points didn’t work. And the fittings in the bathroom kept falling off the wall. Couldn’t access the WiFi anywhere in the hotel other than in my room. The gym was incredibly airless and not all the machines worked. The service for food was so slow I forgot I’d ordered and refused the meal on the grounds it took so long. Even when I hung out the door sign asking for them to clean the room it was not always cleaned even though they obviously had cleaned the room opposite. Had to ask the desk to have my room cleaned. TV reception almost zero so don’t go there expecting to watch any. And most annoying for some one who is not a football fan is that in the public areas all you could see were football games. Actual tourist footage of Ghana would have been nice or even the local news. The roof terrace with jacuzzi was only available after 3pm. No use at all to anyone wanting to catch some morning sun. And yet again only football on the large screen.
• Donny (8/5): The manager knows how to earn her hotel some money - We did not like our initial room on the 1st floor & we tried to leave to a different hotel, but the manager made it right !!! She made sure that we spent all of our time in Accra at the Roots Hotel by moving us into the spectacular Pent House Suite.
• Chinedu (6/5): Check in process - They got my room type wrong
• Kelly (6/5): Ok place - This hotel was conveniently located but reception and room service were incredibly slow. Breakfast buffet was good.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Multiple request - Requested for the sheets to be changed and came back to the sheets the same with the bed made up and stains at the opposite end of the bed.
• Ann (6/5): Nice hotel but noisy - very nice, modern hotel in great location, excellent and helpful staff. food is also good. the only complaint is that the walls are thin and you hear other guests very easily, as well as noise from the street.
• SANJEEV (2/5): Never ever stay here! Worst worst place... - Worst place ever I lodged. Changed 3 rooms in 2 hours before sleeping after 10 pm. None of AC was working. Alternate hotel was provided after lots of argument. The other hotel was also too shabby and bathroom was too small even to stand.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - It was an amazing place to stay. Right in the middle of town and close to key landmarks. Facilities were top notch and of good quality. Lovely bar upstairs with good food as well. Gym downstairs is good too. Pricing was reasonable.
• onalaja (10/5): cool neat n cozy - amazing would like 2 come asap.i enjoyed every bit of my stay
• M.R. (8/5): Good quality hotel - Good quality stay, with some small issues relating to attention to detail in maintenance and customer service.
• Lisa (10/5): Great boutique hotel in fun area of town - Room was comfortable and clean. Staff were friendly and helpful. Need to work on the breakfast options but view of the city is lovely. Hotel is in a great area for restaurants and bars but off the main road so still quiet.
• Puseletso (8/5): Comfortable stay - My stay was okay. I am happy they recovred my make up bag that i forgot in the room.
• Emmie (10/5): Lovely hotel walking dist to restaurants and clubs - This hotel is simply amazing due to very good customer service from hotel staff. Pros: clean rooms, attentive staff, close to restaurants etc. Cons: food is just like another hotel, boring and lacks authentic Ghana flavours.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Wonderful staff. Get the airport pickup/drop off. - I really enjoyed my stay and found the staff to be both warm and reliable. My room was larger than expected and there was plenty of space to share with a colleague. We loved having a small kitchenette to help save on eating out. I liked it so much I suggested that a young exchange student from my university stay there while in transit to university at Kumasi. Thanks for a great stay.
• Lisa (10/5): Lovely hotel at the heart of Osu!! - A very nice hotel. Staff were kind, friendly and very helpful. The room was always clean and very comfortable. In a great location as only a few minutes walk from Oxford Street with shops, bars and restaurants. I loved the new added addition of the roof terrace with bar and jacuzzis, just the right thing for a relaxing evening of drinks and chat!! I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great place to call home! - The first night there we arrived at the hotel via ROOTS van. Alas they informed us they had no rooms. My booking was prepaid 6 months in advance and my fiancé had called roots the morning I was flying in to make sure all was ok but they never mentioned they wouldn't have a room. We were sent to Urbano around the corner and my experience there was not good. I'm disabled and they had no lift. We settled in as best we could and went to the restaurant down stairs. The waiter was attentive but the restaurant was full of mosquitoes and we were eaten alive! The next day we checked out and went to Roots only to be told they didn't have a room ready for us. They wanted us to come back later. I was highly upset as we had a busy schedule and a lot of luggage. Finally we left our things at the front desk and returned around 1pm. They did upgrade our room for the inconvenience. The room itself was clean and well maintained and our house keeping Paulina went above and beyond to satisfie any request! Thanks Paulina you were amazing!! If it's your first time in Ghana I would recommend staying at ROOTS! They are close to Oxford street and have plenty of cabs down the road. Don't take a cab across the street as they charge you triple! There are plenty of options on Oxford street. The Chinese restaurant next door was great but one night we ate in and got sick the next day! Take your food to go! Over all I would stay again at ROOTS!
• Paul (8/5): - This hotel is a very solid option and completely satisfactory in most respects. But to be clear, it is not a hotel for business, as the rooms -- at least the one I had -- are simply not equipped for work. There is a tiny desk with poor light and no space.
• Perry (8/5): Nice hotel right at the center of OSU - This was a great hotel. The first night had my wife and I a little shaky because we were in a room on the first floor and the ac unit was not working well, seems like just the fan was working and the first night was miserably hot and that particular room does not have great sunlight and it smelled damp like it had bad airflow, I would recommend they fix the ac and clear up the damp mildew smell. Fortunately for my wife and I we were moved to another room on the 5th floor which was extremely better. Great views, nice kitchen area and the ac worked wonderfully. I was very pleased with the service and hospitality by the staff, this was my first time staying in a hotel in Accra, I usually stay with family but since this was my wife's first time I wanted her to be comfortable and they made sure we were well taken care of. This is a great boutique hotel tucked in the most happening place in Accra, and it looks like they are still developing the area specifically for tourist and the local Ghanaians. Be aware since this place is touristy it is very busy and they have a bunch of sales stalls lined on oxford street and everyone and their mom is trying to sell something, its cool for the first few days but after a while can become exhausting telling everyone no lol. Other than that I would recommend this hotel if this is your first time in Accra, Ghana.
• George (10/5): best hotel secret in Accra! - My favorite hotel in Accra -- great service, style location and ambiance.
• Jules (8/5): Hotel conveniently situated. - Booking through Expedia was very easy and efficient. Airport collection was very much appreciated. Check-in at hotel on arrival was good; quick and easy which after a flight is always welcome. Staff were discreet, friendly, helpful and polite.
• Brianne (10/5): Great Stay - Excellent experience here at Roots. Staff were kind and friendly. The room was clean and organized.
• Robert (6/5): decent hotel at affordable price - Friendly staff, though the elevator service is quite slow. on a few occasions elevator was packed with hotel staff with us (customers) having to wait for next free elevator. Perhaps, the staff should give priority to the customers. Breakfast is OK, with lunch and dinner menus being limited. Hotel is clean and well located. Good value for the money in Accra.
• Kelli (8/5): Great stay in Osu - Stayed here for a week with my husband and was very happy with our stay. Second time in Accra and was nice change to stay more in city. Very close to everything.
• Nana Adjoa (10/5): - I got the wrong room allocated to me but after I explained to the customer services manager she moved me to the room I actually wanted wish was great. The apartment is great. One of the best I have been in. I felt I was home and I really loved my 4 day stay.
• Jeneba (10/5): - I was told about Roots thru a dear friend of mine, I was highly impressed with how clean and upscale the hotel was. Highly recommended!!!!
• Joseph (10/5): Downtown and comfortable. - Staying at Roots is always a pleasure. Staff are professional and courteous and the accommodation is just what it needs to be.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Accra trip - Slow check in. Average service. Staff would benefit from better training.
• zethu (10/5): - Stayed here for two nights and it was a comfortable stay. The hotel is great, breakfast is superb, especially since the focus is not eggs only, which is very common in other establishments. Location is great, just off Oxford street so ideal for walking around. The apartment was self-contained, not too big, and comfortable. The working desk wasn't ideal, but functional.
• Abosede (10/5): A retreat right in the middle of town - It was perfect. I loved having kitchen. GREAT shower. Lovely staff. It was just a nice little retreat without being far from anywhere you might want to go.
• Dale (6/5): Very, very.....adequate - Visited Accra after a week - long visit to Liberia. Clearly, Accra beats Monrovia by a mile in ALL things.
• Darrell (6/5): Nice hotel.... Very Comfortable - My first time in Africa the hotel grounds of the hotel is not what I expected like in America but I know now that every hotel in region and in a country will be different in my travels. But I enjoyed where I was... The area was very accommodating. I would differently come back and recommend Roots Hotel Apartment.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly staff, central location, clean, spacious rooms.
• JackieO (10/5): Very modern hotel. It felt like I was in the USA. - I was met by a warm, friendly staff. The room was very nice and roomy and air conditioned and clean. I was very pleased since I had a long travel time. I was very happy with my experience at Roots.
• Lorna (6/5): - I was not given the room I paid for at first, even though I indicated I was checking in late. They gave the room to another and I had to wait for another room after a very long flight. Since the room was pre-paid I would have expected better service. Breakfast was very so-so Glad I was not on the plan. Lunch was so so as well.
• SHAUN (10/5): Best place I've stayed in Accra - A great hotel, in the heart of Osu area. Makes for a nice change for your typical style of hotel. The apartment style rooms are great for working out of and relaxing in. Very friendly, courteous and professional staff. Great WIFI - super fast and reliable (something that is hard to find even in the big hotels in Accra), and no power outages during my stay. 2 minute walk to Oxford street, with easy access to restaurants, bars, shopping centre, etc.
• Kelly (6/5): Clean, modern, overpriced - I booked a standard room. Based on the information on the Expedia website detailing the facilities in the room, I did not get what was advertised or what I paid for. The room was overpriced and falsely advertised. No seating area, no kitchenette, no dishwear and poor wifi connection. Bed was low to the ground and just a foam mattress not very comfortable after multiple hours, especially when there was no where else to sit. Room was on ground floor behind reception and I could hear everything. Water pressure in shower was weak. It was clean and modern though.
• Elly (10/5): Lovely! - i was very impressed with Roots! I was worried as we got this hotel for a good price compared to others we looked at. Hotel was modern and clean, staff were helpful although a bit slow at times which is to be expected. Breakfast was mediocre- not traditional but not continental, was more of a merge of both which doesn't work unless you have lots to offer. The area is good, around 30mins or less to the airport. And all other areas accessible by taxi which are very cheap. Overall a brilliant hotel and good value for money!
• Verified traveler (8/5): Roots review - Decent hotel for Accra. Breakfast was great. Good security. Small bar in lobby was handy.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Fine, but disappointed about the swimming pool. Again, delay before check in, the room was not available as per our request. Spent so much time in the lobby.
• Steven (10/5): Upscale and Homey at the same time! - Our suite was perfect for the three of us to stay and it afforded a great meeting spot for local friends before heading out for sightseeing or social gatherings!
• Ebony (10/5): Home away from home - My sister and I stayed at Roots Hotel Apartments for 4 days. The location was perfect and close to nightlife. The staff was extremely helpful and kind. We left Accra to tour Togo for a few days and planned to stay at another hotel upon our return. We checked into the other hotel and after a while decided to leave and go back to Roots Hotel Apartments for the remainder of our trip. The only thing missing is a pool but having a kitchenette was perfect since there are grocery stores within walking distance. I was so impressed that I inquired about their monthly rates for my next visit.
• Mandy (10/5): Nicest Hotel in Accra - can't beat the price! - My boyfriend and I loved our stay at ROOTS. I live in America and had not seen him in 8 months - ROOTS was the perfect place for a little rest and time to connect before exploring all Ghana has to offer!
• Samuel (8/5): Excellent stat - Receptionist was great. Only gripe is room cleaning never happened and I had to request it late during the day. Hotel is convenient to lot of places, the restaurant on the rooftop was good also!
• Samuel (8/5): Great stay! - Reception was great in providing all services, room was clean and location excellent! Will stay again.
• Godfried (10/5): Good location - This was a great hotel. Friendly staff.
• Orisunmbola (8/5): Downtown Accra Stay - Functional Hotel. Mattress foam had failed and was sinking in the centre. They reversed it which helped. They promised to replace subsequent to my departure. Breakfast buffet not exciting they also promised to improve on this. Great Customer Service attitude - The Quality Control Manager was extremely effusive. The front desk reception was also great with Sanem. I will stay there again
• Akua (10/5): Nice hotel, good location - Stayed here Dec 2015 for 10 days. I would highly recommend this hotel. Great location, clean, friendly staff and good food. Would definitely return.
• Myra (2/5): Over charged for everything - This hotel would have been perfect if everything wasn't an extra cost. They literally nickle and dime you for everything. Have you ever heard of a hotel picking you up from the airport for free but then you having to pay for them to bring you back? Seriously that should be complimentary! We needed a fold out bed for my son and again at most hotels they are complimentary especially if traveling with small ones. That was 20 bucks per night and get this they charged us in USD instead of the local currency cedi so for 5 nights we had to pay 100 dollars USD for a mattress. Seriously? I could go on but the overall point is I wouldn't recommend this place and we wont be staying here again! PS its not Ghanaian owned either which is a huge negative for me.
• Class Diving (6/5): sharpen up - Slowest elevator in town for a 7 store high building where you share it with staff, skydeli bar at 7th floor, you order a cocktail and they pick it from the ground floor bar, total time 40 minutes your 2 people in the excecutive room, its a large room, but divided with a rack where the tv is mounted, so watching a movie on my own dvd player is a no go with a early sleeper with you. Asking for upgrade is impossible, when checking in they used a lot of time if i had paid, i showed them expedias mail and phone message, why dont they just check you in, its like they have a whole night sorting that out. I just think this hotel is getting the normal Accra touch of lazyness and downgrade, and staff should be more on the marks, and not look down on me when i say I have paid on hotels.com Also in the room only ceiling lights and one bed light, seriously not okay the kitchen table slanted with a list of 5 degrees by bad workmanship when apartment was build, standing in front of it made me dizzy
• Mpho (8/5): Rooms are home from home - We were well received. Staff is very warm at Roots and they are always ready to help. Wifi worked perfectly from floor to floor. We were particularly happy with the cleanliness of our rooms and the hotel in general.
• Melissa (6/5): Too much noise! - I stayed in a standard double room for 4 nights. Unfortunately I was put in a room with a connecting door, which you can hear every sound through. I dont think I had a decent night sleep will I was there, due to music being played at 5.30am, children crying, even phone call conversations could be heard clearly and loudly (I think the walls are pretty thin too) If you do stay there request a room WITHOUT a connecting door! After speaking with a member of the roots team during check out, I was promised a free upgrade if I choose to stay again and an email with a formal apology...i still havent received the email...
• Anders (10/5): ACCRA apartment no. 1 - The Hotels.com pictures etc, did not give full credit to what I experienced when coming to ROOTS. The receptionist very good, was followed all the way to the room, or let me say apartment, all is new, nice elevator with small waiting time. the room was a large spacious beautiful decorated living room, with a corner lounge arrangement a good size flat screen with enough channels for a rainy day plus a dvd player, there was even a spacious balcony with seats a rest lounge furniture in living room, a kitchen and dining setting, and then as the crown a large bedroom with a top modern bed which gave me the best sleep, and a very good bathroom. This was the best lodging since I started coming to Ghana in 1993, with out a doubt, I am going back Monday for a week stay. and at last the price is like half Golden Tulip and their uncomfortable beds and missing service. Roots is it, cant wait.
• Hassan (10/5): Great place along Oxford Street in Accra. - A very good hotel, simple, decent and homely. The rating is deserved. The amenities are great, there is a gym with enough equipments and transportation around Accra is not expensive from the hotel's location. Located on Oxford street around the local neighborhood with great night life around, Woodin shopping store just a few metres from the Hotel, there is a Shoprite Mall and KFC also about 100 meters from the hotel. Awesome place.
• kevin (8/5): Nice hotel. - I like the fact that the hotel is located in Osu which gives you easy access to many restaurants and some night life. Pity that the hotel price has hot up and is now similar to more established hotel groups in Ghana.Service was as usual very good.
• Nigel (8/5): Great stay in the heart of Accra - I've stayed there before and enjoyed my stay, so I stayed there again. I was in Ghana on business. The staff are very helpful and friendly. They help to make your stay very comfortable.
