Detty December
Your Ghana December, planned.
December 2026 edition
24 days to December

Ghana’s December season runs 1 December to 6 January. The dates below are what you have to decide by.

Where to stay

7 listed

Accra fills up from September. This is a shortlist by area and budget, with the reason each one earns its place, not every hotel in the city.

We do not publish nightly rates here. December pricing in Accra moves week to week and runs well above the rest of the year, so a number printed in August would be wrong by November. Check the live rate on the property’s own booking page. For rough orientation only: hostel dorm beds in Accra sit around US$10 a night and private hostel rooms around US$50 outside the December surge, and marketplace averages for Accra hotels sit near US$237. Expect December to sit above all three.
