My visit to the Highbridge Guest Lodge was a great one overall. The positives: clean, friendly, safe, good-tasting food. The negatives: local area (difficult to walk around the neighbourhood and definitely not at night) and service (more on that below).
The food is very good. The breakfast options in the morning are very good. The staff are excellent and polite, particularly the managers and dining staff. Additionally, the room itself was clean, bedding clean, the air conditioner effective and quiet, the hot water nice, and the lighting nice. Also, the Wifi was moderately fast. Finally, there were some finishing touches that were unique to the hotel, including the local soaps and shampoos. Nice overall.
The service was top-notch except in three respects: (1) I was denied dinner one evening because I returned at 8pm but didn't tell the staff that I would be home for dinner ahead of time; this is understandable but the hours were specified to be 7pm-10pm; at the very least, there should have been snacks; (2) my toilet roll was missing from my room one day which was odd because it was there earlier that day -- not sure how it snuck out! (luckily I noticed it before I needed it!); and (3) you need to ask someone to boil water for you for tea/coffee.
Despite these small drawbacks, I would highly recommend visitors to Accra stay at this location. There is probably not a better small hotel in the East Legon area for this price, and the staff are excellent.
