In a landmark move for the African hospitality sector, Minor Hotels has officially marked its entry into West Africa by signing a management agreement for the NH Collection Accra Independence Avenue, the first property under the NH Collection brand in Ghana – set to launch in 2030.
This development represents a strategic expansion for the Bangkok-based global hotel owner and operator into one of Africa’s most vibrant commercial hubs.
According to Hospitality Net, located in the heart of Accra, Ghana’s capital and commercial hub, the 200-key hotel will form part of a modern mixed-use development offering excellent access to government, corporate and embassy districts, positioned near Jubilee House and within close reach of Kotoka International Airport.
Developed by Swami India Ghana Limited, a diversified real estate group with a strong track record across West Africa and the Middle East, the development will include hotel, retail and office components designed to create a vibrant urban destination. Balancing sophistication with comfort, NH Collection Accra will cater to the city’s commercial growth and international connectivity, serving growing demand from corporate, diplomatic and long-stay travellers. We are delighted to introduce the NH Collection brand to Ghana, one of West Africa’s most dynamic and promising markets. We look forward to working with Swami India Ghana Limited to bring this project to life, said Amir Golbarg, Chief Operations Officer – Middle East & Africa for Minor Hotels.
