When Accra City Hotel marked the 148th anniversary of the founding of Ghana’s capital on March 19, 2025, it did more than honour the legacy of the Ga people who established the city in 1877 — it set a new benchmark for what it means to celebrate heritage through hospitality.
Blending rich cultural traditions with modern luxury, the hotel transformed this historic milestone into a vibrant celebration of community, creativity, and cuisine.
