1 Kilometre From the Terminal
The Closest Hotel to Kumasi International Airport
Just 1 kilometre from Kumasi International Airport (KMS), Labev Hotel is the most convenient stay in the city for arriving and departing travellers. Complimentary airport shuttle, 24-hour front desk, free breakfast — you can be in your room within minutes of clearing customs.
Genuine Proximity
A One-Kilometre Difference
Most hotels marketed as "near Kumasi Airport" are actually 5 to 15 kilometres away — a 20- to 30-minute taxi ride through Kumasi's traffic. Labev Hotel is different. We are exactly 1 kilometre from the KMS terminal, on the Buokrom side of the airport, near South Africa Taxi Station.
For arriving guests this means:
- Under 5 minutes by car from the terminal exit
- No traffic exposure during peak hours
- Easy departure the morning of your flight, with check-out at 11:00 leaving plenty of margin
- Quiet location — close to the airport but well away from the runway noise
If you have an early-morning departure or a late-night arrival, that 1-kilometre difference matters. Most of our airport guests are in their room within 10 minutes of clearing arrivals.
Who Stays With Us
Why Stay Near the Airport
Kumasi is the cultural capital of Ghana's Ashanti Region — and a working business hub. Three guest profiles particularly benefit from staying close to the airport:
Business travellers flying in for short trips don't want to lose two hours of their day to traffic. A hotel 1 km from KMS lets you land, check in, attend a morning meeting, and be back at the airport for an evening flight without ever fighting Kumasi's central traffic.
Family transit guests routing through Kumasi en route to Northern Ghana or rural Ashanti destinations get a quiet, comfortable resting point with breakfast and warm hospitality before continuing the journey.
International tourists arriving on early flights from Accra or international connections appreciate not having to navigate an unfamiliar city late at night. Pull up to Labev, sleep, and explore Kumasi properly tomorrow.
Getting Here
Two Ways to Reach Us From the Terminal
Most guests use the complimentary shuttle. We recommend it for any arrival outside daylight hours, with luggage, or after a long flight.
No Surprises
Our Complimentary Airport Shuttle — How It Works
The shuttle is included with every direct booking. No charge, no surcharge, no surprise fee at check-in. Here is exactly how it works:
- When you book — message us at WhatsApp +233 20 365 4477 with your full name, arrival date, and flight number. We confirm receipt and add you to the shuttle log.
- On arrival day — our driver tracks your flight using the number you sent. If your flight is delayed, we wait. No need to call ahead.
- At the terminal — look for our driver at arrivals holding a "Labev Hotel" sign with your name. The shuttle is a private vehicle, not a shared bus.
- Departure shuttle — same process. Message us at least 12 hours before your flight with the time you would like to leave. We recommend leaving 90 minutes before international departures and 60 minutes before domestic to accommodate airport queues.
The shuttle runs 24 hours a day. Late-night and pre-dawn pickups are routine for us.
Comfortable Stay
Rooms Designed for Arriving Travellers
Five room types, all with the features that matter when you have just stepped off a flight: high-speed WiFi from the moment you walk in, blackout curtains for daytime sleep after a red-eye, in-room hot showers, and 24-hour front desk for late check-in.
Our Superior Kingsize rooms are popular with business travellers — king bed, en-suite jacuzzi, work desk. Our Deluxe and Standard rooms are the most-booked by families and couples in transit. Our Economy room, from $55 per night, is the most affordable secure airport-adjacent stay in Kumasi.
All rooms include complimentary breakfast served from 06:30 — early enough for guests catching morning flights. If your departure is earlier than that, ask the front desk the night before and we will arrange a packed early breakfast for the road.
