Sidra International Hotel

This is my go-to hotel in Addis. Very decent price but good quality everything.

Dirty

The room was bright, clean and spacious with extra seating and a balcony. However, the outdoor traditional coffee seating area smelled so strongly of sewer that we could not sit there. The sewer smell came up through the bathroom floor and shower drains into my room at night. The bathroom was very dark and in need of an upgrade. I reported that my sink stopper would not open to allow the water to drain and it took an entire afternoon before someone came to fix it. I was given only one choice for breakfast each day.. an omelet, along with the salad offerings at the buffet. The dining room wait staff was not attentive and I had to wait long periods of time before I got my bill. Finally, the power went out when I was in the elevator and I was trapped with no way to get out.

Best part of the hotel is the food. Kebab options were tasty. Breakfast bar good. Room and bath showed signs of wear and were somewhat dark Friendly helpful service.

This hotel was everything we needed with a welcome level of good quality. The food in the restaurant was excellent, and I had numerous meetings with people here and in the coffee shop. The room was also great, except several items were not working in the room. In spite of that, we got very good value and will definitely come back here again. The staff offer excellent service.
