The hype

Olma Colonial Suites
$100-160 / noc
Zarezervujte to, ak You want a spacious, apartment-style sanctuary in the heart of Osu without the generic big-hotel feel.
Prečo sa ľuďom páči
- A 'hidden gem' oasis tucked away from the chaos of Oxford Street
- Spacious suites with kitchenettes that feel like a private residence
- The 'lovingly restored 1950s villa' architecture and garden vibe
Rýchly prehľad: A charming colonial time capsule that nails the 'oasis' vibe but struggles with consistent maintenance—especially the pool.
Recenzované @Coamarketing: I stayed at Olma Colonial Suites and it was the perfect escape. My 2-bedroom villa was spacious with a gorgeous balcony, and I loved lounging by the pool before hitting the nearby restaurants. It felt like a private oasis.

Reality check
Long-time fans are noticing 'wear and tear' like peeling paint and broken furniture that needs a refresh.
- You need a kitchenette for long stays
- You prioritize silence and sleep quality over glitzy lobbies
- You want to be walking distance to Osu's best restaurants
Čistota a údržba
7.8
- Housekeeping: Daily service is generally praised, but deep-cleaning details (dust on fans, corners) can be missed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but watch out for 'wear and tear' like stained grout or aging fixtures.
- Maintenance: The biggest weak point. Reports of peeling paint, broken AC units, and the infamous green pool drag the score down.
- Linens & towels: Functional and clean, but don't expect plush, 5-star Egyptian cotton.
- Odors & scents: Mostly fresh, though some ground floor rooms can smell a bit musty due to the humidity and garden.

“I'd love to request one of the Superior Suites with a balcony, preferably on an upper floor to minimize mosquito issues. If possible, a unit away from the main gate for maximum quiet.”
Často kladené otázky a skryté tipy
Všetko, čo potrebuješ vedieť pred rezerváciou.
Is there a gym?
No. There is absolutely no fitness center on-site, despite what some third-party booking sites might imply.
Is the pool usable?
It's a gamble. Recent guests (Jan 2026) reported it was 'green' and 'under maintenance,' so have a backup plan.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, but check your specific rate. It's a plated, cooked-to-order meal (eggs, toast, fruit), not a sprawling buffet.
Is it safe to walk around at night?
Generally yes, Osu is lively. The immediate street is quieter, but you're minutes from the main drag. Uber is recommended for late nights.
Do the rooms have kitchens?
Most suites do have kitchenettes with a microwave, fridge, and kettle. Standard rooms may just have a fridge.
Is there a generator?
Yes, they have a backup generator for Accra's frequent power outages, but expect a brief flicker or delay.
Insider tipy
- ✨
You can request a massage in your room since the 'spa' is more of a service than a facility.
- ✨
The 'Pool View' rooms are pretty, but the 'Garden View' units are often quieter and more private.
- ✨
Salvatore, a decent Italian spot, is just a 600m walk if you don't want to taxi for dinner.
5 vecí, ktoré by ste mali vedieť pred cestou
💡The building is a restored 1950s villa, giving it authentic architectural character you won't find in new builds.
💡The 'garden' is lush enough to attract a fair share of mosquitoes—keep your door shut.
💡Hot water is a finite resource here; the tank seems small, so coordinate showers if you're a couple.
💡The WiFi is fiber optic and surprisingly decent for Accra, a rare win for digital nomads.
💡You might be the only guest at the pool, giving it a private villa vibe (if the water is clean).
