The hotel's prime location and clean rooms were definite highlights. Most staff members were friendly and welcoming. However, our experience was soured by a security guard's unnecessarily harsh behavior. When we attempted to take the elevator from the garage where our vehicle was parked, he became confrontational and insisted we use the main entrance. His tone was unprofessional, and the encounter felt strange and unwarranted.
While the manager's apology and resolution were appreciated, the guard's behavior left a lasting impression. With some customer service training for staff, this hotel could easily elevate its game. For now, it's a solid "average" – a good location and decent amenities, but inconsistent service.

Radisson Blue Ethiopia
The hotel staff are incredible - especially the guys working in the business lounge. They greeted me by name, learned what I liked and would always ask if I wanted it, and spent their time telling me more about the culture and history of Ethiopia. Highly highly recommend this hotel!

I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to the entire team at Radisson Blu. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and showed great respect to all the guests. I am especially grateful for the way you made my wife’s birthday unforgettable. With just a simple text message requesting a birthday-themed room decor, the team went above and beyond. They transformed the room into a beautiful celebration, complete with a customized birthday cake, a heartfelt birthday wish, and a delightful arrangement of fresh fruits. You truly made her day extra special, and we’re deeply thankful for the comfort and joy you provided.
