Cape Coast Homestays

We stayed in one of the free-standing villas. The villas are on a well-manicured ground adjacent to the main hotel. Our room had nice furniture, was comfortably laid out, and was a nice size for a family. However, the air conditioning was weak and the room was visibly dirty, with lizard poop in several spots around the room. The hotel is large and has more services and amenities than other options in the Cape Coast area. It is a convenient base for trips to Cape Coast Castle, Kakum National Park, and other attractions, but it is not on the coast and the views and are nothing spectacular. The restaurant is disappointing, with a basic menu (pizza, hamburger, club sandwich, etc.), slow service, and low quality. The pool is a bit better, but doesn't compare to the pools of hotels at similar price points. Service was poor; I felt like I was bothering hotel employees when I requested services or asked questions. Few employees wore masks. Sometimes employees didn't know the answers to basic questions (i.e. the restaurant couldn't say what was on the menu).

Jackie Grand Hotel is OK for a short business trip, especially if you intend to the historic castles at El Mina and Cape Coast. Both of these sites are UNESCO Historical Sites and should be back visited. The hotel is a working class area, so it is bustling with various kinds of vendors selling g everything from plaintain chips to water and sodas. The service at the hotel was average and seemed that they were under staffed. Perhaps the worse thing about my 2 night stay was the water rationing for the shower. The breakfast was an English style breakfast with a Ghanaian twist. Apparently, these water issues can adversely impact a modest hotel like Jackie Grand Hotel. Like other establishments in Ghana, I had to ask for the basics like bottles of water.
