Top Business Hotels in Addis Ababa

The new hotel is relatively clean and noisy by the side of the road. The facilities are complete, and the front desk staff is very good. The worst is Chinese food. The Chinese restaurant on the negative floor has very few people and does not say how it tastes. The ingredients are really fresh and fishy. I do n’t know how long it took to make breakfast Chinese food and something to eat shredded potatoes. I really recommend buffet.

A nice hotel with amenities (hot water supply, bed comfort,Wi-Fi) in good shape. Also you can relax in the pool or enjoy the on-site spa. Room rate is significantly lower than other big name hotel brands in Addis Ababa.

The staff and waiters are more polite. They will say hello first when they meet. The buffet is more suitable for Chinese people. The room facilities are also better. It is a very cost-effective hotel abroad. The Chinese plug is still recommended.

freindship hotel great hotel provides pretty much what one would want from a hotel sauna &steam and gym ground floor . A spacious rooms a number of food and dining , and cleanliness. It had all of these characteristics . There are security watching the hotel 24 hours a day and friendly staff. The hotel manager is outstanding. You have a great view of the city.I will come back as it is one of the best in addis ababa.

I stayed here for almost a month. First week experience was unfortunate as I had to do quarantine for 7 days and the room was uncomfortable. It wasn’t as clean as it could have been at all. The window had no light which made it very hard to work online, especially when you have meetings and daily video meetings. The room was very very cold and no heaters. Some of the lamps didn’t work either, the lightning could be improved. This affected my work The construction opposite the window was quite creepy as it stole all the natural light away and it looks quite scary. During the first week, I was told different information by different staff which was confusing. Unfortunately my COVID results were late, which had me ending up extending my stay for future two days. However the staff did apologise and the manager personally contacted me few times. After the quarantine, I was moved into a much better and cleaner room, which allowed me to work online with good natural light and amenities in the room. Overall the staff was friendly, I could see the chefs cooking with hygiene measures and everyone practiced food hygiene , washing hands etc. Suggestions : I had someone call me at midnight during my first 7 days to say the laundry was ready. It freaked me out as the timing is unacceptable to call a guest at that time. Perhaps better training should be in place. Once I wanted to have a drink in the restaurant/bar and the waiter told me I should drink in my room. Later I saw other people drink in the bar. They should communicate with each other or with the manager to see what’s allowed or not. Staff should communicate more with each other for better understanding so they can inform customers the same thing and not different. The staff should understand that sometimes If the customer feels distressed, you need to acknowledge that and not excuse it. Perhaps because of COVID the rest of the hotel amenities were closed as I was told the bar on 9th floor is closed, there is no spa, the jewellery and gift shop was shut, the gym was not accessible. The location is in perfect location in Bole, close to restaurants and cafes. There is Infiniti cafe right next to the hotel which is great. Overall, I do think the staff were friendly and helpful and tried to help when they could. Some of the staff were extra kind and really reassuring such as one the staff in front desk who helped me change to the new room and directed me to Edna mall and helped with transport etc. Some of the wait staff were really friendly and always asked how I was and how my day was which was sweet and kind. The hotel is safe and secure with security measures. The manager also checked in few times and personally dropped me off to the airport which was reassuring and kind of him. I am hoping to come back soon and I will stay here again when I return to Addis .

The breakfast is rich, the environment is elegant, the service is in place, and it meets the five-star standard. The rooms are spacious, well-equipped, and the beds are comfortable. It is considered a relatively high-end hotel in Ethiopia if it is a good choice for $100

The location is good on the street in front of the Ramada Hotel. The decoration is simple and atmospheric. Although there is no air conditioning, it is not stuffy and hot because the rooms are all north facing. There is no problem with ventilation during the day. The best part is the Chinese Panda Private Kitchen next to it.
