About Linda Dor Rest Stop

Linda Dor Rest Stop (Bunso Junction) is a highway rest stop, restaurant and hotel at Bunso junction on the Accra–Kumasi highway, in the Abuakwa South Municipal District of Ghana's Eastern Region. The Linda Dor brand was founded in 1976 by Madam Belinda Doris Arkorful and has grown to six locations; the Bunso highway rest stop is the best known of them. The Abuakwa South Municipal Assembly's composite budget describes it as a private facility for tourists and travellers on the Accra–Kumasi highway providing food and beverages after long journeys.

For a traveller, the appeal is practical rather than scenic. The official site describes the brand as a "Restaurant and Highway Rest Stop," with the restaurant open 7:00 am to 11:00 pm daily and the Highway Rest Stop operating 24 hours a day. The restaurant serves local and continental dishes, with a bar and Lynda's Delight pastries, confectionery and coffee, plus catering services. Washrooms and car parking are listed among the facilities, and a GOIL filling station on site provides 24/7 fuelling.

Overnight guests are catered for in hotel rooms offered as standard rooms, deluxe suites and family rooms, with free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, en-suite bathrooms and room service. Conference rooms are available with a projector, audio equipment and video conferencing, and the venue also hosts conferences, weddings and social gatherings. An ATM machine is listed on site.

Transport is part of the offer: bus ticketing, parcel services and long-distance bus services operate through partners including OA, VIP, VVIP, Intercity STC, 2M Express, Neoplan and Airport Premium. General enquiries can be made on +233 (0)34 229 4012 or +233 (0)50 163 4176, or by email at [email protected]; hotel bookings have separate numbers. The brand received the Highway Rest Stop of the Year award in 2014 and a gold award at the 5th Ghana Business and Financial Services Excellence Awards.
