Feel like a well managed hotel with facilities most travelers would need. My only issue was missing the working desk so I lacked the convenience for business travel.

Hotel is nice, staff is friendly, enjoyed my massage at the spa. With that said, at least in US standards, this hotel would not meet the requirements of a 5-star hotel. It would likely be closer to a 3.5 star hotel.

NOT a 5 star hotel
This hotel is misleading because it claims to be a 5-star hotel. Not even close. The rooms are clean, and I was upgraded to a bigger room. But I was disappointed because I expected a 5-star hotel. This could be a good 3-star hotel with 2-star (even less) breakfast and 5-star gym. I can name a number of 4-star (or even 3-start) hotels in Addis that are much better. The furniture looks nice, but no drawers at all. And no work table or charging/USB plugs. And it is a new hotel.

I was a bit suspicious at the low number of reviews at first but I realised that they were a new hotel once I got there. The service was honestly impeccable. The lobby and the rooms were very spacious and beautiful. The Gym is honestly one of the best gyms I've ever seen in a hotel. All in all it was a great experience. Would definitely recommend!
