The staff are good at their job. From the airport to the hotel and back to the airport was a smooth transition. Clean rooms and they’ve got a nice lobby and it’s quite spacious. They welcome you with some tea and that’s a good gesture. Highly recommended for travelers.

This is the worst place I have stayed in Addis. The rooms were cold, the duvet was really not warm and on one day they cleaned my room and didnt give any towels. Also the services, staff are not really friendly.

I stayed at the hotel for four nights. The staff were friendly and helpful, which I really appreciated. However, the cleanliness of the rooms and common areas left something to be desired and definitely needs improvement. With better housekeeping standards, the overall experience could be much more enjoyable.

Hotel is nice, staff is friendly, enjoyed my massage at the spa. With that said, at least in US standards, this hotel would not meet the requirements of a 5-star hotel. It would likely be closer to a 3.5 star hotel.

I was a bit suspicious at the low number of reviews at first but I realised that they were a new hotel once I got there. The service was honestly impeccable. The lobby and the rooms were very spacious and beautiful. The Gym is honestly one of the best gyms I've ever seen in a hotel. All in all it was a great experience. Would definitely recommend!
