“Very decent place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012

I was apprehensive about the hotel having already had a terrible experience in another hotel in Addis. To my surprise, this hotel would rate decently compared to all the other hotel acoss Asia and Africa that I have stayed in. Clean and well maintained rooms, good internet facilities, very good restaurants and a good location midway between the airport and city center. I would recommend this place to fellow travellers when they visit Addis.

“o.k. hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

For the money you pay (which in not so much for Addis hotel standards) you get a clean room with working facilities, pleasant dining options and friendly staff. While they might not be perfect they are genuine and always try to help.
Good location between airport and down town.
Would come again.

“Good Business Hotel with proximity to airport”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 11, 2012

I had read mixed reviews about this hotel but looking at the other options available in Addis I decided to go for this hotel. The reason was excellent price, complimentary airport pick up & drop and they had an Indian restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised to see their counter at the airport. I approached them for hotel drop and they promptly organized the van for me. The entrance of the hotel, lobby was really impressive and was exactly same as shown in their photo gallery on their website.

The rooms were very clean and neatly organized. They offered me free wi fi and so it was biggest advantage for me as I was there for business visit. The staff was very polite and prompt and helped me to reach my desired destinations in Addis. They also guided me on using the cab services in the city.

The Indian restaurant served excellent Indian food. I was surprised to see the restaurant was so much occupied and people were even waiting for their turn outside. Looks like it is one of the most popular restaurant in the city.

They also have nice gym, steam bath and resto bar on the top floor of the hotel. Please do not forget to use these complimentary services.

I would certainly recommend this hotel to all business and even leisure travellers.

“Was not given a room after a confirmed booking....no information given”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 8, 2012

I had my worst experience of staying in a hotel till date. I had a confirmed booking and pick up from September 5-7, 2012. Having arrived at 8.30 pm from Nairobi on the 5th, I was surprised to find that there was no one to pick me up from the Airport. After waiting for half an hour, I made my own arrangement and reached by taxi only to be told by the front office manager that while he did have a confirmed booking for me, he was unable to provide me a room since afew guests had missed their flight and refused to check out of their rooms. I was asked to take a room in a nearby hotel - which was two rungs lower with a similar price. A very bad experience indeed.

Room Tip: Book at your own risk - you could be dumped off without any prior information

“clean and friendly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 7, 2012

A clean and comfortable hotel. Free internet in all rooms and lobby which works well. Breakast ok. The hotel arranes free pickup and return to the airport. everyone is very friendly and helpful. Location ok but not really for walking around at night. If you are sensitive to noise, this might not be the best -- you hear the call to prayer. Would return.
