Best Hotels near Zetseat Apostolic Reformation Church | Sarbet | ዘጸአት ቸርች | ሳር ቤት, Addis Ababa

Very nice hotel, 5 star level in Addis Babe, the staff here is amazing. I happened to have my birthday on the day I left, and they even prepared a birthday cake without telling me, which was a great surprise!

Addis Chinese Hotel has a ceiling and complete facilities. You can basically meet all your needs without leaving home. The room type depends on the orientation and configuration. The facilities are relatively new. The hotel has all Chinese food. The restaurants on the first and second floors include private rooms. There is a Chinese spa and a gymnasium on the roof You can overlook the city of Addis, and there is a football field next to it to watch live games.

This is the best hotel you can go to in Addis Ababa. The rooms are very clean, aspecially done by the room cleaner Birtukan. She makes sure you have the cleanest rooms, enough water and is very nice. The service in the restaurant is very good, the waiter Buruk and manager Mehret make sure that you start your day as perfect as it can be. Very pleasant to come home to.

This is my second time staying at Ramada but It is my first time at the breakfast buffet on the first floor. When I entranced the breakfast buffet this morning. A gentleman named “Besufkad” greeted me with the biggest smile you have ever seen in Addis Ababa. After I sat down I went to the coffee counter to request for a cup of cappuccino. I remembered that the same gentleman was doing his paperwork. He immediately acknowledged me and promise me a good cup of coffee. 2 minutes later, Besufkad came with the personalized cup of coffee with my name written on the milk froth! He might have know from the restaurant guest list when I mentioned my room number at the beginning for the cheque! Oh well, the breakfast choices were nice and the omelette with chili was my thing! I was in the buffet roughly for an hour or so. I have noticed how awesome Besufkad was to the other guests. He was very helpful and always have his big smile on his face throughout the hours. What a great hospitality and genuine service he provides for his guests. Besufkad, Thank you very much for a great experience staying at this Ramada! You actually made my day :)

The price is very reasonable. The free shuttle service is also a plus. The large twin room is spacious and can accommodate a family of four.

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.

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 .

Made to feel welcome by the helpful reception staff. Rooms and beds were very comfortable and plenty of hot water and tea making facilities in the rooms. Do take earplugs if you are a light sleeper as local dogs do bark during the night. Good variety of food for breakfast and the omelettes were great. Evening meal service was slow as short of staff, although we were informed as we went in for dinner. The food was ok but not brilliant. We didn't use the spa or gym but they did look good. Overall, a good stay in Addis Ababa and very close to the airport.
