Hotels near Friendship Park Children's Center, Addis Ababa

Addis is not the easiest city to navigate so your hotel needs to be an oasis. This is not a luxury hotel but a perfectly serviceable hotel you will come to appreciate. The rooms are decent size and beds comfortable. Television shows a coupld of English channels. The breakfast includes a vareity of fresh fruits and vegetables and hot dishes mostly Indian and Middle Eastern. We found a couple of the staff to be particularly helpful. Note that the hotel lists itself as being on Mickey Leland St. but it is set off from there. The Leland name appears to be newish so cab drivers sometimes have trouble finding it--there's a local app for cabs that is helpful. There are many restaurants surrounding this hotel and several ice cream/gelato spots. We happened to stay in three different rooms--higher is better--but the design of the bathroom plumbing connects the shower through an under-fllor pipe with a cleanout valve. In some rooms there is a smell from that arrangement. There also does not appear to be heating and cooling in the rooms-surprisingly that wasn't a problem. Overall, a reasonably priced good choice.

Hotel is located in a bit of a quiet area. Staff is really friendly and they clean your room on daily base. WiFi connection is really good!! Restaurant is good and very flexible. They cook the dish you would like to eat! Some things that might be improved: locker and a refrigerator on the room would be nice. Also shower was a bit broken but was nice warm water to use!

Amazing stay at the hotel. The service was excellent. The rooms was always clean. The staff at the hotel was always happy and tried to help us with everything we asked for. The food at the hotel was really good. We also got suprised that the hotel had a spa. The spa was good and could be used for free in the morning.

Very nice place. Very homely people and the staff is really good and very cooperative for foreigners, especially I would like to recommend the service by David David bar supervisor- the bar supervisor and Teddy, okay. Miki is very good person in serving the best cocktails in the world. I enjoyed, and I had a great time as they made me feel at home.

Addis Chinese Hotel has a ceiling and complete facilities. You can basically meet all your needs without leaving home. The room type depends on the orientation and configuration. The facilities are relatively new. The hotel has all Chinese food. The restaurants on the first and second floors include private rooms. There is a Chinese spa and a gymnasium on the roof You can overlook the city of Addis, and there is a football field next to it to watch live games.

I am overlanding through Africa for almost a year now and this hotel has been a fabulous experience for me. The check in went smooth and I was allowed in early. The staff is exceptional! From the front desk to the wait staff of the restaurant, which has amazing and well priced food, to the maids. Bravo to all on a job well done. The spa is also lovely. I very much enjoyed a steam, sauna and massage by the incredible staff worker. I would recommend 100% to stay here. The location is great. I feel safe. The Wi-Fi and room is amazing. Thank you 😊

I stayed in Hotel Lobelia for a total of 5 nights during 3 separate times in July. The hotel is conveniently located, just a 10min drive from Bole international airport, & a free hotel airport shuttle is provided. This was perfect for me as I had to fly in & out of Addis Ababa a couple of times as I traveled around Ethiopia. Besides being close to the airport, the hotel is also very close to many other establishments, such as restaurants, cafes, shops, mall, etc. There is also an ATM just outside the hotel lobby so this was extra convenient. The 3 different rooms I stayed in during my 3 separate stays were all spacious, satisfactory, & clean. The bed was quite comfortable, & the wifi worked well in the room. There was also a separate seating area. A menu for the restaurant, as well as all the services offered by the hotel are also conveniently provided on the desk in the room. The bathrooms are quite small, however, and can use some upgrades, but overall it was fine, and the hot water shower was great. On one of my stays, I did end up getting upgraded to one of the suites, which was a very big room with a very big bathroom. They serve a buffet breakfast which typically included traditional Ethiopian dishes, and sometimes eggs & pancakes, in addition to toast, fruits, juices, coffee, & tea. Besides breakfast, food is available all day at their restaurant, as well as room service. The food at the restaurant is quite good so I did eat here a couple of times. Laundry service was also good – I dropped it off just before 8:30am & got it back just after lunch. They also have luggage storage, which I used to store my big backpack, while I traveled to other parts of Ethiopia with just a small backpack. The overall service is really good here; plus, all the staff, from the reception to the restaurant to the shuttle service, are really nice, friendly, & accommodating. There was always someone to answer any questions and provide any assistance needed, which I really appreciated. This hotel is definitely good value for a short stay in Addis Ababa with easy access to the airport.

The room is quiet, the hotel pays great attention to service, there is an airport shuttle, it is recommended

I recommend this hotel to friends who are going to ADIS. Location: Five minutes' drive from the airport, you can see the airport from the balcony of the hotel, you don't need to leave too long in advance. There is a hotel's free bus to and from the airport, every 15 minutes, 24-hour service Facilities: The facilities are very complete and the items in the room are of high grade. Dining, leisure, swimming pool, fitness. The best thing is that there is a bank inside, you can exchange currency at any time Restaurant: The breakfast is absolutely amazing, located on the second floor of another building. The bread and desserts are more complete than the bakery, and the lady fell directly when she saw it. There are five or six kinds of honey. Freshly squeezed juices from various fruits 🍹 ice cold and super addictive. There are even more types of nuts, including big hazelnuts from the Northeast🌰 Security: Don't worry about safety when you come here, every car that comes in will be checked carefully. There is a security check at the entrance on the first floor. Service: It is recommended to come here if you are traveling by yourself or on a business trip. You can meet and discuss things directly in the spacious and grand hall. The hotel staff are very warm and polite.
