This was the best hotel we stayed in in Ethiopia. Given the standard of most hotels not a difficult set of competition. Breakfast was buffet style which was fine. Pool area was very comfortable, although there were a lot of children around. It felt as if a number of the staff from Embassies use the pool area at weekends. Yes... More

The Sheraton is a great place to stay on Addis. It has to be one of the best hotels in Africa with wonderful facilities in the middle of the city. Staff are nice and the place is clean and generally of a very high quality.While a little expensive, something to be expected, the place is fantastic and must be visited... More

Our stay at the Sheraton was a welcome respite before and after an amazing adventure in this fascinating country. The personal service was first rate and the diversity and quality of food excellent. Our rooms were very comfortable and furnished. Would give 5 stars but the A/C is inadequate. Thankfully, the climate was mild and breezy so could open balcony... More

I travel throughout the world for work and was totally impressed with the Sheraton in Addis. I actually wrote up a summary sheet for folks that go on travel from our office and stay here so I've copy/pasted that below. Overall, I found the Sheraton to be super comfortable, especially for the solo female business traveler. I felt very safe.... More

I've stayed here twice in the past two months. And I travel all over Africa, at least every three months. So there's my cred and here's my take: This is a really good hotel, by any standards. There are a few quirks, but overall a great place to stay. Free shuttle from airport, nice large rooms, beautiful grounds, decent restaurants,... More

Staying here for five days after a long week travelling in some hardship areas in Ethiopia and all I can say is whoa! The luxury collection hotel is probably the best in the region, the rooms are a good size, beautifully furnished and with every luxury you would need after a long day. There are four great resturants and I... More

I'd actually rate this 2.5 out of 5 -- but I'm going to round up to 3 out of 5 to give them the benefit of the doubt. I'd describe this place as all style and very little substance to back up all of the glitz. That said, I really wanted to like this place...and first impressions were actually very... More

If I have to compare, this hotel is really much better than let's say the Intercontinental. It is well maintained everywhere, the staff is very nice and professional and the restaurants are very very good and refined. When inside you completely forget about the bustling and polluted Addis. The room we had was very nice and comfortable but as explain... More

Rooms are spaciuos and clean. Overall property is very nice with excellent swimming pool. There are 3 different restaurants, I went to Italian one and the food was good. Prices are decent, drinks very affordable. The biggest concern was AC because it was very ineffective. The bar is very good, live music on Thursday and Friday. Service is sometimes very... More

Stayed at the Sheraton Addis for business. The hotel is very posh and reminds you of a North American hotel. You forget you are in Ethiopia at the Sheraton. The rooms are spacious and clean. The pool/spa area is beautiful. I only negative is the air was not working well in my room and would not go lower than 19C... More
