No shuttle service
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

10/10 Exceptional

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.

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.

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.

Pleasant stay in characteristic hotel
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.

Clean sheets towels and room. Towels changed daily. Hot tap water arbitrarily in bathroom. The gym should be free of charge.
Geir, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

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 shuttle for collecting from the airport was late. The blankets were dirty.
Mamogala, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

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
Richard, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Raphael, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Incompetent
An awful start to my stay at the hotel and arrival in Ethiopia They left me stranded at the airport at night for hours despite me contacting them on 4 occasions prior to my arrival. and hotels.com contacted them twice too l when I had zero reply on the airport shuttle. They failed to respond or provide this and when you don’t know the language and your phone doesn’t work in this country - as i explained to them - it leaves you in a very vulnerable position. When I wanted to leave after several other things not working the hotel refused to refund me as unfortunately I paid upfront. Hotels.com also extremely unhelpful

not a place I would come again.
it's mega fumbled-old and no hot water! dirty. I left the hotel 3 days early because it was not to sleep in such an old bed. TV didn't work at all. pasonale was super sweet. but the hotel needs a serious upgrade without mold etc.
Adda Ramona, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

They charged my credit card for no reason and declined to refund. I called so many times but nobody willing to refund. They offered reimbursement in kind. That being said the breakfast is very good and they have a beautiful compound. It has a big potential if they have a good management.
