“Pros and Cons list review”
+Pros; -Reasonably priced -Includes a breakfast - Has a pool and a gym -Quiet hotel for those who value a good nights sleep - Has good food places and shops nearby Cons; - Hotel definitely needs renovation - Breakfast has limited options and is not a buffet. - No windows in some rooms - Some staff members were very unhelpful and were not able to answer simple questions. - Far from airport
+Television no volume and bathroom toilet when use very noisy
+Das Personal war nett. Leider liegt das Hotel etwas außerhalb. Bei Expedia steht das der flughafenshuttle kostenlos ist. Das stimmt nicht.
+We had originally booked 14 nights at Lou Ralf Hotel, but it became clear on the very first day that we didn’t want to stay there. The rooms were in extremely poor condition: furniture was damaged, drawers and closets couldn’t be opened properly due to missing handles, and many fixtures were worn out and dirty. Particularly concerning was the air conditioning - it was leaking, heavily soiled on the inside, and appeared so unhygienic that we had serious health concerns. The bed linen was dirty, and one of the sheets even had visible footprints on it. After three nights - and only after we managed to find alternative accommodation in the middle of Africa - we were finally able to check out. This hotel, in its current state, is absolutely not recommended. A clear warning to all travelers to Africa: Do not book Lou Ralf Hotel - it does not meet even basic expectations for a clean, functional, and well-maintained place to stay.

“One of the best hotel choices in Accra, Ghana!”
+This hotel definitely ought to be the first choice for every serious traveller who are looking for a highly prize-worthy option to the posh ones, like Kempinski or Lancaster hotels. --- The staff at Lou Ralph Hotel is composed of the most lovely people, and their service level is top-notch. They are very attentive, professional, and commit with heart and soul to their tasks. You certainly will feel safe, and taken care of. --- The surroundings are perfect for me loving daily walks, and you can even allow yourself to visit one of the local bars in the more central streets for a cold beer or soft drink. --- The hotel offers a very good and nutricious breakfast, served either at the pool or in their restaurant. Later during the day, a snack or a full lunch or dinner meal are easily catered for, as well as a nice bar service --- Gym and pool make up for lost time back home, and you can feel well exercised when going to bed. --- In summary: do not hesitate to test this resourceful gem - you will not be disappointed, mark my words!
+No international plug. Only one towel. No transportation provided. Cold breakfast

“Never again”
+Nasty, nasty, nasty. From dead roach to filthy debris in bathroom to dirty towels. Never again. In addition, no remote control for TV nor AC unit. The shower water had no press and left my skin dry. I stayed here 3 days and felt I was in a hell hole as my traveling companions did not want to move to another hotel. Never again.

“Exceptional Service”
+Over the last five (5) years, I have stayed at Lou Ralph whenever I come to Ghana. The first day I walked through the doors, I was welcomed with open arms; it felt like a home away from home. The reception staff, the kitchen staff, and the security staff were all great. The staff always went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. I have also recommended my family in Kumasi to stay at this hotel when they come to Accra for business. My experience at this hotel has always been exceptional; the welcoming family vibe made it a standout choice. I can't wait to return and again be embraced by the warmth and hospitality of this exceptional.

“fabulous place to stay”
+Fabulous stay at this hotel Staff were great and friendly. Pool very clean and usable, the only downside is the steps into pool, especially if you have mobility issues. Breakfast is only included for 1 person, even if 2 staying in room ... this seems to be a Ghanaian thing. Security on entrance. Food during day from pool/bar menu, there is great selection and reasonably priced, hot and generous portions. Pool is accessed by day users and locals
