Ethiopian Skylight Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall love the experience Skylight gives you. I always stay here when I can. But it seems some of the rooms are beginning to have some wear and tear and cleaning needs more attention. But overall, a very lovely hotel."

Dabi Hotel & Apartments

8/10 Good

"As a budget hotel/apartments, Dabi deserves a solid 4-star review. I stayed here for a week, and got a good discount. The hotel is located just 5 minutes away from the financial district in downtown Addis. Safe overnight parking in the basement was a plus. The staff were helpful and the room was clean. They provide free shuttle services to/from the airport, although I did not need to use it. The complimentary breakfast was amazing and with generous portions. The only downsides were limited TV channels (my room actually had none, other than Chinese online programs), and minor wear and tear (leaky shower tubs, windows and closet that didn't close properly). Overall, I had a great stay at Dabi and I would stay here again if I had another opportunity to return to Addis."

OMNA ADDIS HOTEL

"Staff Including security are extremely polite presented as caring they are very friendly and willing to help the kitchen/restaurant staff went out their way to accommodate me eating plant based . Meals can be served late into the evening which is handy.Although clean some furniture in my second room the wood was damaged .I ended up injuring my leg on the edge of the bed there was no band aid Room cleaned Dailey if requested . water provided WiFi in room was generally good. Room could do with being painted .First room given had black mould on walls I was moved to a different room without any difficulty. Lots of shops bank ATM night clubs and restaurant's nearby . The lift stop working for a number of hours on one day which was very inconvenient as I was on 7th floor. It would have been helpful to have a list maybe in a brochure of activities and places to visit nearby . I had a good experience and was made to feel welcomed I would want my name/details to be confidential"
