We stayed here during a long layover in Addis Ababa. It was very nice and very convenient, being located within the terminal. Vendors in the terminal charge extraordinarily high prices and is not very comfortable, so it was very nice to be able to retreat to the comfort of this hotel.

It was good. The staff were very polite. Didn’t speak great English, but it was in Ethiopia.

For 2 of us, there was only one bath and one hand towel. The phone did not indicate how to call the reception; zero nor asterisk worked. The shower stone floor is very slippery.

This hotel offers a roomrate by the hour. Expedia does not offer this option hence I paid for 24 hours but only stayed 8 hours, an overcharge of about $70.

I often stay at this hotel when I'm transiting through Addis, but this time felt really special. I was welcomed at reception like an old friend by Wasihun and Hailegrorgis, and the check-in process was seamless. My room was in perfect condition and very comfortable. The food options for breakfast were better than before, and it's clear that all feedback is taken seriously. Well done to the Skylight team!

Amazingly convenient. Stayed the night on a layover and didn’t have to clear immigration at all, walked out to the gate 20 metres from my room in the morning. Modern and clean rooms with a pretty good breakfast included

Convenient local. Room BO50 smelled of sewer, TV did not work, AC did not work stayed on 25deg. Breakfast was fridge cold, food was prepped the day before. Bed was comfortable, shower had hot water. But really deficient for $180/night when other government hotels close to airport are $50/nite.

On the website it stated all inclusive which is very confusing to my understanding all inclusive means breakfast, lunch and dinner and standard drinks but was no the case once I paid for it.

Room super convenient and has all the amenities though water in shower wasn’t as hot as it could be. Also the restaurant was a bit meh in terms of breakfast food options

It's very convenient to stay at this hotel and overall, the facitilites are good and there is decent wifi access. The rooms are not soundproof, however, so the loudspeakers from the departure hall can make it difficult to sleep. There are good attemps with the breakfast buffet and I appreciated the delicous cappucchino.

I was at the reception of this hotel, where I was waiting for my flight the next day... I requested the reservation through Expedia and the amount went to my credit card. When checking in at the Hotel they made me wait for more than 6 hours during the night because they didn't find the payment amount.
In short, they didn't make the room available to me and so far the amount is still appearing on my credit card for me to pay. There was a misunderstanding or a coup.
This hotel is not worth it for how much trouble it caused. I hope it doesn't happen to more people and I'm already requesting a refund.

It was extremely convenient to be able to walk to the hotel after a long flight and know I have a place to rest up before another long flight ahead.
