Labadi Beach Hotel has once more solidified its position as the premier five-star hotel in Ghana and one of the most respected in the sub-region by scooping five awards in different categories at the 6th Ghana Hotels Association Awards 2024 held in Accra.

The ceremony, organized by the Ghana Hotels Association, honors member hotels that demonstrate high performance, efficiency, and innovation in various aspects of the hotel industry.
With the theme “Sustaining the Hotel industry in Ghana Post Covd-19”, the 6th edition of GHA Awards focused on recognizing excellence in housekeeping, conference & banqueting, security, front of office, and greening.
Managing Director of the Hotel, Mr. David Eduaful, credited the hotel’s continuous achievements to the dedication and commitment of management and staff. He also highlighted the unwavering support and guidance from the Chairman, Professor Douglas Boateng and the Board of Directors.
In 2023, Labadi Beach Hotel declared a dividend of Twenty-five Million cedis (GHS25,000,000.00) to its sole shareholder, the Social Security and National Insurance Trust-SSNIT, following a previous Ten Million cedis (GHS10,000,000.00) dividend declaration for the previous year.
The hotel is strategically located 8.7km from the Airport and the central business district of Accra, set amidst tropical landscaped gardens adjacent to one of Ghana’s most popular beaches in the city, making it ideal for the business and leisure traveler, as well as nature lovers.
Labadi Beach Hotel has expanded its room capacity to 164, including 2 Presidential Suites, 4 Executive Suites, 4 Superior Suites, 5 Bars, 2 Restaurants, a 900-seater multi-purpose conference and banqueting facilities, spa, well-equipped gym, lagoon for fishing, and 2 plush leisure and lap pools on a sprawling landscaped garden overlooking the natural Maale Lagoon.
The Hotel’s ESG initiatives are also unparalleled within the local and sub-regional hospitality industry. This has seen the hotel embark on noble projects such as sponsoring the cost of surgery for one hole in heart patient every year through a partnership with the Children’s Heart Foundation Ghana organization and providing food for over 100 street children every Friday through the partnership with Street Academy Ghana.
“We are appreciative of the continued support and patronage of our valued guests, who have played an integral role in Labadi Beach Hotel’s success. This remarkable recognition serves as a motivation for us to continually raise the bar and deliver unique hospitality experiences, setting new standards of excellence in the industry,” Mr. Eduaful concluded.
