I made a two room booking error while standing in front of the check-in desk (wrong date). The hotel staff support was horrible. When I reached out to Hotels.com for support, I was also disappointed with the vanilla answer. What was concerning was that hotels.com agents were not able to reach hotel stall through a telephone. I was standing in front of the reception desk and the phone never rang OR it was deliberately being ignored. When I offered to connect them through my cellphone it was rejected by hotels.com agents. Overall failure by both the hotel and hotels.com agents….

This is not a 5 star property!!! Id give them 3 stars because Im generous. I don't who they pay to give these 5 star reviews, but its rigged! I should have known from the get go it was going to be ghetto. The seatbelt in the front seat van that picked us up wasn't broken. Potholes and stray dogs and homeless people outside the property. They have men outside the property who tried to take my friend to a brothel. It took 40minute for them to check me in, after getting in from a long flight and i already had a reservation. Theres was only 1 person at the front desk..

A beautiful hotel in the center of Addis Ababa

My stay was great at the Golden Tulip. The hotel facility as well as my room was nice and comfortable. It is centrally located in Addis Ababa in a busy area with streets around the hotel in bad conditions making it challenging to access the hotel where on foot or driving. The staff are really nice and helpful to customers.

They didn't have my reservation when I arrived and were very rude. Because they didn't have my reservation (I'd already prepaid through Expedia), they failed to pick me up at the airport as well. When they finally (after almost 2 hours) gave us a room, it was a room where someone else was staying....

Avoid Staying in this old property

It was mixed.. the Hotel manager and receptionist were rigid and not supporting to extend the hotel check out timings..very rude and arrogant...breakfast was decent with other hotel staff reasonably well supportive.. the location of the hotel is terrible with no proper approach road...and facing a construction site with a filthy pond..its a very OLD structure with rooms and lobby in old style...no modern update .... AVOID this hotel as much as you can . there are so many better hotels nearby with better facilities and surroundings

The area where the hotel is located is very congested, but the staff were extremely polite and helpful with all of my family's needs. The only recommendation I would make would be to add a microwave to each room. Thank you for your hospitality Golden Tulip management and staff.

Friendly team

The hospitality was fantastic. The manager offered me an early check-in free of charge. The team was friendly and helpful and excited to serve.

If I was made aware when I booked that I would not have been able to get the room upgrade. I would have just booked the higher level room. That was very disappointing.

I had other options, I would have taken at other locations if I knew this ahead of time.

The visit went well, staff was fine. They did fail to get me at the airport as planned. It was pouring rain. We had to use another company to call the hotel to come get us. We got socked.

Good hotel and friendly staff. Offered to help with additional requests. Close proximity to the airport with shuttle pick-up and drop-off from the airport is an added asset.

It's always a pleasure to stay at the Golden Tulip in Addis. One of the best hotels there.

I recently stayed at another hotel property close to the Bole Airport in Addis Ababa. The price was similar but the facility and the attention of staff to the guests was far superior.

EXCELLENT hidden gem in Addis! The improvements needed are too small to mention . Overall, it is the best hotel I've stayed at in Addis. (in comparison to other 4-5 star hotels in the city).

Great hotel, 5 minutes from the airport, very clean good beds, large tv, good breakfast. We stayed one night. Only negative thing was the limited options in the menu for dinner...they didn't have some of the things we wanted from the menu.

The hotel is ok. Nothing special but overall it’s good.

Good points: variety of amenities are available though many of hotels in Africa do not provide various amenities. Clean room and beautiful facilities. Location is good; one of the biggest shopping malls is walkable distance and place seems safe. Airport shuttle service is convenient and the driver and the staff who was waiting for us at the airport was very helpful. WiFi is ok. Food is fair.

Poor points: It was very noisy at night. I don’t know where the noise was coming from but probably from a bar/restaurant nearby the hotel. Shower was bit hot and bit difficult to adjust it. Some staffs are not really polite.

The hotel overall was nice and in good condition. The restaurant and bar area are not very inspired and not very inviting.
Also the rooms can be smelling like smoke. I had to change my room due to strong smell of someone previously smoking in my room even so the whole hotel is a non-smoking facility. The second room still have a faint smell of cigarette smoke....

Bad service but good quality finishing

My stay was good, however the service was pretty disappointing. There were 3 rooms booked and 2 of us waited for at least high an hour to be checked in, and the other one have waited for over an hour to get to the room. The restaurant staff can barely speak English and they are not attentive at all.
The rooms were spacious and comfortable.

Over all I think the people is the best thing on the property. There's really nothing I didn't like about the property.
