I have spent several wonderful occasions a the Radisson Blu In Addis over the past several months and am deeply impressed by this new addition to the first rank of hotels in ADDIS. The food is excellent, the staff is welcoming, well trained and clearly there to make one's stay a memorable one. The quality of our room was impeccable,... More

This was my first time in Addis and what a great hotel to stay in. The rooms were very clean and modern. The bathroom had a tub and a separate shower. Wifi worked well and was free for guests. Breakfast was included and was delicious. It included fresh juices, made-to-order omelettes, eggs, pancakes and waffles, cheeses, breads, pastries, vegetables, fruits,... More

This hotel feels like a spa in the middle of a chaotic city. Unlike the Hilton and Sheraton hotels, the Radisson gets a mix of travelers and local business persons in its restaurant and bars. The rooms are quite spacious modern, and most importantly have good wifi. The food is not the best in the city, but service is very... More

a new hotel covenienntly located near airport and main business district. Modern style, free wifi and comfortable beds. Good buffet breakfast. Rooms could do with more soundproofing, noise from corridor does penetrate. A good and cheaper alternative to Hilton, Sheraton etc.

I stayed at the Raddison Blu in Addis for two nights in March. The hotel is very nice, i had a spacious room, nice furniture, good TV channel selection and fairly good free Internet connection. I had room service on arrival night that was delivered quickly and was very nice. Breakfast was very good both mornings in the buffet area.... More

The staff at the Radisson Blu is very eager to please. My partner and I stayed there for four nights, and they were attentive to our requests. Had it not been for how hard they tried, this property would have been rated much lower. (That said, the property is clean, has a fantastic bed, and makes decent food.) To be... More

The Raddison Blu Addis is a nice new hotel with a great vibe, cool design, and fantastic internet access. This hotel is a happening spot in the evening, enough to make a solo biz traveler feel part of the scene. The food is very good in both the bar and resturant but the menu options are very limited in the... More

As a very frequent traveller to Addis Ababa (6-10 trips per year) I vouch for the Radisson Blu. It has emerged as the best top of the range hotel in Addis. It cannot compete with the Sheraton or Hilton for grounds and hosting big events but the accommodation is as good or better, and -- most important -- the food... More

True to its brand, this new addition to the hotel scene in Addis is urban, hip and stylish, from the lobby, the lounges to the rooms. With a few rough patches here and there, likely due to less experience, service is excellent. Staff is courteous and always wants to be helpful. Wifi is decent. Gym is small (5 cardio machines...

Perfect location beside the UN Headquarters, very near "Bole", Piazza and other key locations in Addis. The staff are very highly trained, have a good command of English, smile all the time and give an excellent service - unlike so many other establishments. It will take over as the main hotel in Addis in a short time, putting the Hilton... More
