Overall the hotel is really good, but, since the refurbishment there is a large tent structure which has been erected over the bar area. This impacts the view from rooms 212-214 so, if like me you like to sit on the balcony to watch the world go by this is not the place to be.

Overall the hotel is really good, but, since the refurbishment there is a large tent structure which has been erected over the bar area. This impacts the view from rooms 212-214 so, if like me you like to sit on the balcony to watch the world go by this is not the place to be. They do a karaoke evening on a Sunday which can be a little rowdy also. Troy's Tours is a must do as it is entertaining and informative so book at the desk early. There are washer dryers on every floor so you can keep your packing to a minimum. The beach and pool areas are always clean and the staff are very friendly. Breakfast was a little disappointing as some of the items in it were spicy and there was not a lot of variety either. The hotel is always clean and the cleaning staff are very good Read less

Superb experience: from the quality of rooms, to the service and the location. We had several rooms staying from one to two weeks. It was a relaxing stay very suitable for families. A lovely beach is a one minute stroll away. There are plenty of fabulous restaurants within walking distance, including food options, a coffee shop, a supermarket, and an ice cream shop also one minute away. Keep Friday night open for the Oistins Fish Fry experience. Highly recommended for a seamless experience. Read less

The Rockley Hotel is a very accommodating and friendly establishment. I visit regularly and find the staff responsive and warm. Dedreia, Antonia, and Troy are particularly noteworthy on my most recent visit. The hotel is located directly across the road from Rockley/Accra Beach and is situated within walking distance of restaurants, coffee shops, a grocery store, and strip malls. It is also a 10 minute drive from Oistins in one direction and Browns Beach in the other. If you visit the Rockley Hotel, you will enjoy the experience. Read less

We had an amazing experience during our stay at The Rockley. All of the hotel staff we met/engaged with were friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious and the bar service was excellent. Our room was beautiful and was very well maintained during our stay. We would definitely recommend staying at The Rockley… you won’t regret it!
