Review: The Mövenpick Ambassador Hotel Accra, Ghana
I like staying at points hotels, but when far superior options exist, I won't sacrifice convenience, location or security for points, which is why I love staying at the Mövenpick Ambassador in Accra. The property is basically an oasis inside the loud and hectic city of Accra — and the pool is extraordinary. Each time I've stayed at the property, I've enjoyed amenities that come with the stay, from the fast, free Wi-Fi to the complimentary breakfast buffet and balcony. There's nothing better than waking up, feeling refreshed and being ready to take on another day in Accra!
