Liked: Staff & service
I stayed at the hotel for four nights. The staff were friendly and helpful, which I really appreciated. However, the cleanliness of the rooms and common areas left something to be desired and definitely needs improvement. With better housekeeping standards, the overall experience could be much more enjoyable.

The staff are good at their job. From the airport to the hotel and back to the airport was a smooth transition. Clean rooms and they’ve got a nice lobby and it’s quite spacious. They welcome you with some tea and that’s a good gesture. Highly recommended for travelers.

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.

Cant upload pictures taken, but there are several design flaws that make no sense and are inconvenient (at least for my room). Hotel staff was excellent!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.
