This hotel is excellent for those of us who love Ethiopia and prefer peaceful, nostalgic atmosphere to fancy, noisy modern hotels. Good old Ethiopian style hotel with a huge and quiet compound with large swimming pool, in the heart of the city. Stable water supply, electricity and Wifi with satisfying speed. Fair room rates. In every way a very pleasant stay. Take the opportunity to experience this classic hotel before it's gone!

The hotel is located in a nice and big garden. The rooms are clean although the hotel is a bit old, but it is okay for the price. It is also authentic and has good Ethiopian cuisine.

We really valued our stay at the Ghion Hotel. The rates were excellent, the staff are lovely and it's a real piece of Ethiopian history. The African Jazz Village is top notch and home to the timeless Father of Ethiopian Jazz, Dr. Mulatu Astateke. Meals were copious and delicious - Breakfast is free! We are used to staying at more modern (read: updated) luxurious places but I'd go back for the charm, people and music.

In spite of that their facilities show in some parts the time passing, all staff is very attentive and efficient; gardens are enjoyable, also the Jazz club, is well ocated near the National Museum, bus and metro stations, view from Woreknesh Genet Restaurant.

I tried to call them from Japan because I wanted to make sure that the shuttle bus would come to the airport to pick me up . However, the phone numbers are old, and I have never got to reach them. Shuttle bus never showed up when I have arrived at the airport despite the fact I have booked the shuttle service when I booked the room on this hotel. I am no satisfied with this hotel service

Ghion Hotel is a very pleasant hotel to stay. The surroundings are excellent, including park and swimming pool, in the heart of the city. The hotel has a great history. Service staff is always willing to help. The rooms need some updating maybe, but the beds are excellent, and the shower is always hot. Personally I like Ghion Hotel much.

The garden area is really good, spacious and well kept with ample security. The staff are very polite and helpful. The T.V situation is poor and needs attention. There are no Tea or coffee making facilities and some of the rooms are void of a fridge. I found the hotel good value for money and will definately try to rebook.

The property needs a lot of work to bring it up to scratch. For example no water came out when you turn on the hot water. However, the staff were very friendly and helpful
1-night trip

8/10

Ghion is an old hotel, and a good option for a very affordable hotel ideally located in the heart of Addis-Abeba. The bed is quite confortable but the bathroom and the water-heating system is from another century... quite slow to get some reasonably hot water. Sound isolation is quite bad. The hotel itself is quiet, but we hear the noise of the street constantly, including some very early morning religious chants. Breakfast is included, quite nice buffet with typical ethiopian specialties. Receptionists are friendly and willing to help, specially when you need a taxi. But communication is sometimes complicated.
