Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    This is a great location in Osu with easy access to Oxford Street and all of the hidden gems in the neighbourhood. Walking around in the evening is safe and comfortable. The rooftop suite has great views. I will stay here again.

    I had a lovely stay at the Accra Backpacker’s Hostel. Bright is an incredibly accommodating host and even walked me to the end of the road to show me where to get some food. The rooms are basic but clean and safe.
