A 15 hour layover in Addis Ababa left me with Ethiopian Airlines generously offering a free hotel stay, along with transportation to and from Bole International Airport and a complimentary breakfast, lunch and dinner from the hotel's restaurant. Hey, can't beat free, free, and free! We had to wait around a half hour for a bus pickup from the airport,... More

Spent the day here on a return flight from BKK to IAD. Since my layover was greater than 8 hours, Ethiopian Airlines put me up here as they contract with the hotel. Not expecting much, I can say that I wasn't disappointed. Too bad as the hotel obviously once had some charm, but those days are well behind it. The... More

The moquette carpet was filthy. Their vacuum cleaner had apparently broken down that morning and remained so for my entire stay. The bathroom was clean though. Wireless internet hardly ever worked in the rooms. My colleague was lucky enough to have a room with LAN cable working, but most rooms did not have one. You get 1 hour internet in... More

Booked here with a few others who missed connections at ADD. The hotel is contracted by Ethiopian Airlines to house stranded travellers. Hotel is OK. Area around the hotel is under construction and quite loud during the day. Food is okay - there are curries and rice and a few salads for each meal. No sweets and one bottled beverage... More

Hotel is under construction, but thankfully the activity seemed to decrease overnight. However, it is next to a busy road, and the sounds of traffic were quite noticeable through the windows which did not shut properly. The room was large but not very homely. Service at reception is indifferent - WiFi was switched off a and no attempt was made... More

I spent one night here after missing my connecting Ethiopian Airline flight in January 2013. After waiting endlessly for the pickup bus from the hotel, we arrived to see a poorly maintained hotel with construction going on all around. I can only describe it as the worst hotel I've been in! Very narrow range of food, very tiny rooms, was... More

THE WORST hotel experience in a while. Lousy breakfast, lunch and dinner... No wifi though they claim that there is one...it never works and they dont care. No staff ever smiles in the hotel. Staff are more interested in listening to TV programs in the bar with loud volume and protest when you say you are not able to have... More

Stayed one week. Room quite tiny and worn out but okish. No internet despite they claim there is a fast connection, No attempts to solve the issue during the whole week. Staff at the reception desk rude and barely speaking english. Among other, they woke me up one night at 5 thinking I ordered a wake up call.Cleaning ladies screaming... More

We stayed at the Hotel de Leopol International from August 14 till August 18, 2012. We came to Addis-Ababa to participate in an international conference held in the Addis-Ababa University. Our overall impressions of the hotel are positive. We had a studio room for each person for 56$ per night. The rooms were clean, hot water was always available, the... More
