The first time I went to this place — 2 years ago
In 1989 I spent 10 days in Takoradi thanks to my job on a merchant ship. We spent most evenings in the Atlantic Hotel, drinking beer, listening to local bands, and fending off the ladies, (mostly) :-). I have to say that all my impressions were good. I was delighted with the warmth of the people, the good spoken English, and the general good nature. Although the furthest I travelled was to the local market to buy a tape of local music, it was all good, and I’d recommend a visit although I can’t of course speak for inland or local hotels and b&bs.
