Marriott debuts first Western property in Accra

Marriott international has thrown its considerable weight behind Accra as the premier leisure destination on the west coast of Africa with the opening of its first high end property in the region.

Situated in the up and coming airport business district that is set to reap the rewards of growing internal tourism strategies and close to the central entertainment hubs of the city the premises is well positioned to take advantage of the growing market.

“Accra is the heartbeat of Ghana, a dynamic city bustling with energy,” said Alex Kyriakidis, president and managing director, Middle East and Africa, Marriott International. “A commercial, manufacturing, and communications centre with great shopping and excellent nightlife, it makes an interesting travel destination both for business and for leisure. The Accra Marriott Hotel will add to the city’s maturing hospitality scene, inspiring guests with more forward-thinking experiences and aesthetically inspiring spaces that speak to their inventive nature.”
