Ethiopia hotels & accommodations

I live in the East of Ethiopia and frequently travel through Addis, spending 1-3 nights in hotels each time. Hotels are very hit and miss, and we never see consistency and quality, even in hotels we return to. Hometown Addis is a refreshing exception. The staff was very friendly and warm, the facilities were clean and built with quality materials. Its a quick drive to ...

Initial suite was unavailable, so they tried to downgrade my friend and I. Then they tried to move us into one suite. Both times not offering any refund or discount. One room ended up having very wet carpet and smelt terrible. So many things within the rooms not working. Every order of food took a really long time and was poor quality. Staff didn't take responsibility ...

Staff that was there was great! I had an issue with my phone charger and they helped me take care of it right away even though it was VERY late at night. My bed was comfortable for the one night that I was there. Wish I could have stayed for breakfast to check that out - had to leave early in the morning.

I arrived late at night and was warmly welcomed and food and drink were available. My room was comfortable and clean. The staff were very helpful. I felt they were eager to make my stay a happy one. I was very impressed. If I ever have the happy chance to go back to Ethiopia this hotel would definitely be my hotel of choice in Addis Ababa.

Booked Getfam for a visit to Addis for a couple of nights. Was thoroughly surprised and happy to see the quality of the product they delivered! Room was fantastic! Very clean, all the required amenities were there and a very comfortable stay. Staff very polite and attentive based on my experience. I had no issues on delivery of service. Suggestions for Improvements: I...

This might be one of the upper end hotels in Addis, but seemed dumpy for a Hilton. The carpets are worn, and is in real need of an update. Everyone was very helpful and nice, and service was very good. Having Ethiopia Air right there was very helpful. Good security, and this was a place I would go back to, though it seems much more geared to the business traveler

Jupiter is an excellent option, close to shopping, restaurants and the airport. Rooms are nice, with modern furnishings, and breakfast is quite good. What really makes the hotel special is the high level of attention and courtesy from the staff. The front desk staff make every effort to help, including arranging transport or providing for the hotel shuttle to pick up i...

Good value for the price and a good location for the visitor to Addis Ababa. Short drive to the Airport and in the middle of many restaurants and bars. The breakfast buffet is excellent and a mix of Ethiopian and western options. The staff are very friendly and helpful. As a bonus, Café Rigel, directly across the street has the best lattes I have ever had.

The positives first: good infrastructure (building, rooms, backup generator) and fairly good location, quired. But. Bad management. Bad experience from pickup at the airport to checkout. Airport transfer - advised driver would wait inside the terminal - no he didn't. Website advises buffet breakfats and free wifi. Day 1 no no buffet - advised this is only done between ...

Lots of choices for food and a good location in terms of reaching the airport and getting to the light rail system for traveling around town. The area is very busy and safe but there are many kids who attempt to distract and pickpocket you so caution is advised, especially at night but I imagine this is common in many other sections of the city as well. Staff were very...

I traveled to Addis Ababa for day visit. The hotel, the employees or staff were great …. Excellent. The restaurant food was delicious. Very quiet hotel, had a great view of the city and quick access to the markets. I will return and would recommend this hotel to anyone.

It is great & all team are professionals. Specialy thank you the manager or owner. I stay in ethiopia different hotels.I never see such great service. I feel like my home.pick me from Airport and drop me back to air port.most hotel they did not such great service.

We had a really pleasant stay at Melala B&B, the people were really nice. They came to pick us up at the airport late at night (for free!) and helped us with all the information we needed. The B&B is clean, the room big and nice, in a small street that is not to busy. It's a quiet place to relax at the beginning or the end of your Ethiopian trip.

This hotel was clean, there was decent food, but it is not safe for ladies. Street local guys can easily enter and bother women. I have nothing against decent locals, I am talking about street guys who try to get some money from tourists or to pick up a western woman. Once a bunch of them entered the hotel restaurant and started bothering me. I had to leave. Same story...

I had to leave when I want to get a message and the woman asked me if I had took a shower that morning, I told her what, she asked me again, I said forget it, she said OK I'll give you a message, I said I don't want you to do nothing for me, I then told the manager, he told me he will report her but she is responsible for her own area, I said I know I only stay one day...

I had a good time here, it is close to many interesting places for Addis night life. Best place to stay for making it to the airport on time. The owner "Abbi" is a great help, he drove me around town for free to help me arrange tours. He even helped push down the tour prices, Really Appreciate it, thanks again Abbi. Very much want to return.

Honey Land Hotel, staff, and Lilibella has been my best experience while traveling through Ethiopia (5 weeks). The staff at the hotel are kind, generous and go out of the way to please their customers. The hotel facilities are great . In addition the hotel provides tours to the local attractions at a good price.

Our first stay (arrival in Ethiopia) was okay- our room was ready when we arrived late at night and the bed was comfortable Our second stay (departure from Ethiopia)was disappointing- the room we reserved and paid for well in advance was occupied so we were 'downgraded' to a room which had just been offered to another guest even tho' it was only 11:00 am. The room smel...

I have stayed in lots of hotels in Ethiopia and in Addis in particular. I have just booked my 4th stay at the Kaleb Hotel. I have found the staff there to be excellent and attentive. This is the best hotel that I have stayed at. The receptionist (Kobob) was excellent and always helpful and extremely friendly and professional at all times. Nothing seemed to be too muc...

I had an 18-hour layover in Addis and decided to venture out into the city. Reserving a room to get a little rest and to shower before my lengthy flight home seemed like a good idea. I read a great review about the Caravan Hotel in my guide book. After searching a little, I decided to secure a reservation. I think my stay there was the highlight of my visit! The f...

Did not get booked room but Queen room instead. It was meant to be more comfortable. Not sure it was. Surprised when a coffee cost 20 birr on first day and 25 on next - a major price hike. And no warning. It is the principle that counted, not the exchange rte as such. Equally surprised when breakfast room attendant turned off light over table, without saying anything,...

Kefetew Guesthouse is absolutely one of the best places I've ever stayed! Genet, the owner and host, is incredibly hospitable and kind. She drove me around Addis, shared meals with me, showed me the sights, and became a wonderful friend. She is very helpful and extremely accommodating! The guesthouse itself is very beautiful... the photos don't do it justice. My room w...

My stay was pretty good at this hotel... I got in kinda late and the room I had reserved wasnt available.... So they put me in a room for a night and i received correct room next morning....

Despite a prepaid reservation, and the fact that we had stayed at the hotel for 6 days previously, we were unceremoniously denied a room as they were full when we returned from a one night stay elsewhere in Ethiopia. They had our email and could have advised us sooner but it was handled very badly and while they put us up in an in another hotel, it was inferior and inc...

This was a very upsetting trip. I became ill and had to go to hospital. The staff, housekeeping and room service all accommodated my needs 100% when I returned back to the hotel. On a separate note, my travel companion had an incident while out at a concert. The staff at the hotel worked tirelessly to assist us with the aftermath of the issue and to help us resolve...
