Start with the good, property was clean minus ants in the room and other random bugs. Beds were comfortable. There was a breakfast sort of. The not so good -the listing shows breakfast buffet but there is not one. There is also no phone in the room to order breakfast. They also don’t answer the phone when you try to order breakfast so you must go downstairs to order for them to bring back upstairs to you because there is no public dining area. We also booked for two people but were told breakfast is only for one person. The second major issue was we were initially asked to leave prematurely because they couldn’t verify our Expedia reservation and even though we showed them. This was resolved after some back and forth. Communication was poor which resulted botched breakfast and undue stress to stay in the hotel we already paid for. Most people were kind including the owners brother but one of the front desk girls was apathetic. Aside, free WiFi was not strong enough to stream but should work for email. Also power went out my last day and the generator is currently down but at least they have one.

The hotel itself is excellent however it’s away from most of the shops or cafes. The roads isn’t the best either but I guess the staff and amenities make up for those.

The best value for your money. Absolutely no hotel can beat this place in Addis. This would be a 5 STAR hotel if it was located on the main street. Friendly staff, Great breakfast, super clean rooms, comfortable beds, walking distance to authentic restaurants and cafe's. I have stayed for 5 nights and now I am extending my stay.

Exceptional customer service. To further enhance the guest experience, it would be beneficial to include a chest refrigerator, kettle, and tea-making facilities in the room. Additionally, providing a few hangers in the closet and a safe for securing valuables would add to the overall comfort and convenience for guests

Worth Every Penny

Elsol Hotel is simply incredible. The entire property is immaculately clean and tidy. The rooms, well appointed with all the amenities you need for a lovely stay. The staff were especially kind, warm, and friendly and made our stay there quite amazing. We'll definitely be back, next time we're in Addis.

After a wonderful one week stay at El Sol Hotel back in February 2025, we were very thankful to return to this lovely local hotel in Addis. Booking our trip to Madagascar meant we had to change flights in Addis and we figured: why not do a 2-day stopover in this Great city and visit some friends? It felt really amazing to be back at El Sol, with the very dedicated team, all very kind people. It felt like returning home. We hope to be able to come back in the future for a third stay! Thank you all so much!
Thank you all so much again for the wonderful stay 🙏

Good apartment-hotel

Good place fir the price. All around, very resourceful and cooperative staff. Safe and secure place. However, neighbourhood doee not look safe place to walk during night time. Note the place is hotel-apartment, and it does not have basic hotel amenities such as restaurant , bar...free breakfast included. You have to eat lunch and dinner elsewhere. Wifi is hit and miss.

We’ve stayed 7 nights at El Sol at a wonderful spacious, clean room with a little kitchen. Communation behorehand about airport transfers was excellent. Unfortunately we had a one day delay (missed our connection flight to Addis), but all was well arranged for a pick up the day later. All staff is super kind and go out of their ways to give you the best time in Ethiopia. We hope to come back in the future. Thank you everyone at El Sol 🙏

The rooms are amazing, showers are terrible no partition between the shower and the toilet. The entire bathrrrom floor gets wet when you shower, this is a theme in Addis, why don’t they build showers with tub or partition ? No food service and the location is in a sketchy alleyway that no taxi can find. If this hotel was on Main Street it would be worth double.

Exceptional Stay with Outstanding Customer Service!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently stayed at this hotel and had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The customer service was truly exceptional – every staff member I interacted with was friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure I felt welcome and well taken care of. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, offering everything I needed for a relaxing stay. It’s clear that the hotel takes pride in maintaining high standards across the board. What truly stood out, though, was the team. From the front desk to housekeeping, the staff were not only professional but genuinely warm and helpful. Their hospitality made a real difference and elevated the whole experience. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a smooth, enjoyable stay with top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back!
