Every time the staff available for any reason I need them and great service hospitality's good location nice Ethiopian tradition breakfast I am happy to be back for further visit my family to stay Elsol Hotel
After a wonderful one week stay at El Sol Hotel back in February 2025, we were very thankful to return to this lovely local hotel in Addis. Booking our trip to Madagascar meant we had to change flights in Addis and we figured: why not do a 2-day stopover in this Great city and visit some friends?
It felt really amazing to be back at El Sol, with the very dedicated team, all very kind people. It felt like returning home.
We hope to be able to come back in the future for a third stay! Thank you all so much!

Good apartment-hotel
Good place fir the price. All around, very resourceful and cooperative staff. Safe and secure place. However, neighbourhood doee not look safe place to walk during night time. Note the place is hotel-apartment, and it does not have basic hotel amenities such as restaurant , bar...free breakfast included. You have to eat lunch and dinner elsewhere. Wifi is hit and miss.

Worth Every Penny
Elsol Hotel is simply incredible. The entire property is immaculately clean and tidy. The rooms, well appointed with all the amenities you need for a lovely stay.
The staff were especially kind, warm, and friendly and made our stay there quite amazing.
We'll definitely be back, next time we're in Addis.

We’ve stayed 7 nights at El Sol at a wonderful spacious, clean room with a little kitchen. Communation behorehand about airport transfers was excellent. Unfortunately we had a one day delay (missed our connection flight to Addis), but all was well arranged for a pick up the day later. All staff is super kind and go out of their ways to give you the best time in Ethiopia. We hope to come back in the future. Thank you everyone at El Sol 🙏

Positives:
1. The room and the entire facility were very clean and comfortable.
2. The room looked exactly as pictured and was very spacious.
3. The beds were comfortable and clean.
4. Very fast in-room wi-fi with reliable connection at all times.
5. The front desk and door staff were very friendly and helpful.
Negatives:
1. We were told after checking-in that breakfast will not be included as advertised because the room had a kitchenet. They said it was an error on the site that breakfast was listed as included on the specific room booked.
2. The TV did not work the entire time. We complained multiple times and were told it was due to the weather (even on clear days). We were asked why we didn't notify management when we said it never worked at check-out, even though we notified the manager on the day we checked in.
3. The hotel's party/event room was directly above the room we booked, and it was extremely loud on days there were events. We were told about this after we checked-in and told it would be okay since the events will end by 10pm.
Overall, the hotel and people were nice, but I would have gone somewhere else if it wasn't non-refundable and already paid for. I ended up spending 50% of the time elsewhere so I didn't want to make a fuss, but was very much annoyed by all the last-minute restrictions and notifications.
