Clean room and very friendly staff. Nice to have pool and gym. Breakfast is good value. Internet was fast. Location is very good. However the state of disrepair of the rooms was disappointing (balcony doors would not lock in two Different rooms, the safes did not work in either room, and the television reception was barely useable). Overall I would stay here again if the price was below that of neighboring hotels which offer better amenities and nicer lobby environments.

This is definitely NOT a 5-star hotel. Maybe a 3. I don’t understand in what way they rate themselves as 5. The service was slow and inadequate (they constantly forgot to put utensils in the dining room or to even take our orders properly). The staff is unprofessional and lacks simple logic (they forgot to call our shuttle bus to the airport, forgot to send in room service, offered spa that didn’t work...). The rooms are not cleaned properly (dirty towels are not replaced, sheets aren’t changed, floor isn’t cleaned...). The food is just so so (The breakfast buffet is tasteless for the most part). Overall, it was a very disappointing stay. For the price you pay, this is inadmissible. Bad management all around. I’m surprised they haven’t been sued for using the name Intercontinental since they are not part of that chain. They’re giving that hotel a very bad name.

Not a true Intercontinental Hotel.
We booked the hotel, thinking it was a part of the Intercontinental Hotel chain. It is not. While the lobby looked fairly nice, the room was very worn out, the restaurant didn't have many things on the menu, and it was an overall disappointment to what we expected.

Horrible experience, hotel overbooked, bad mgmt
This was a horrific hotel. After arriving at 11:30pm, I arrived with a group and they told us that they had overbooked the hotel and had to bus us somewhere else. There was no choice in this and no warning. They bused us to an even worse hotel that didn't feel safe and was less quality that what we had paid for. The hotel is horribly mismanaged and touts itself as a 5 star hotel. Then they had a problem with the booking when I tried to check out. I had already paid but they had no record of me paying. I had to argue with reception for 45 minutes for them to finally realize that I had paid and check me out. The hotel rooms were dirty, the wifi never worked, the food made most of my colleagues sick, but the worst part was being forced to stay in a hotel that was even worse and not receiving any compensation. I would not recommend this hotel if you want a reliable room. Also, it is NOT part of the intercontinental chain.

Highlights. The name is misleading, it is not an Intercontinental Brand therefore the expectations are set high and the reality is extremely disappointing. Very poorly run hotel with things breaking down. What I liked Their room wifi is extremely good and one of the best in Addis Ababa. Major Issues My room door lock kept getting broken during my stay and this seemed not to be a big concern for the hotel, I had to call repairs three times. I was locked inside the room on four occasions where I could not get out without someone from front office coming to open the door from outside. Worse still they never fixed the door even after I kept complaining, I had to check out two days earlier and look for another hotel. Amenities The hotel has a spacious gym though this also has broken down equipment either not working entirely or uncomfortable to use. Breakfast Very Poor.

The service is one of the worst I have experienced in recent time, it took the front desk staff over one hour thirty minutes to confirm my booking and assign a room to me. I ordered for food, it too over 2 hours after several reminders for the food to be brought to my room and another 1hr for the waiter to bring the bill for me to sign, banging my door when I had already slept with my experience in Adis ababa I do not think I will ever stay in any intercontinental hotel again.

Decent Hotel, Comfortable Hotel, Not too crowded.
1st room was terrible. Couldn't get in with the key card. The manual key they gave me jammed. The door handle fell off and the internet didn't work. The 2nd room I had was much better. Everything worked. Restaurant food was nice. Good friendly staff, though not everything on the menu was available and other times additional items were forgotten. Pool was great and being open to 10pm was a real bonus when you have a busy work schedule. If anything this hotel needs a bit of cash spent to repair some of the tired facilities.

AUGUST VACATION IN ADDIS ABABA
hotel was nice, clean and good location. Only issues for us as a family is that the swimming pool needs to be upgraded, very old, and dated and water wasn't great quality. The tiled area around the pool is so, so dangerous as it has normal tiles that once wet are a complete death trap and accident waiting to happen as we found out as our 8 year old son had a horrendous slip and fall, causing bruising to his back and bottom and a massive lump on his head. Food was good, however, bar waiting staff would manage matters better if they used note pads when taking food and drinks orders. Staff at breakfast were excellent every single day as were the concierge and front of house staff. Overall the hotel needs to take some time and do some much needed maintenance works , especially to the pool area as this could be a fantastic spot to enjoy your stay even more, (we did on 3 other days visit Capitol Hotel in Addis Ababa, which had a fantastic pool area with attendants on hand all day too). Hopefully the intercontinental will do some upgrade works very soon as I would love to return again. The bathroom in our corner suite was very run down and needs to be upgraded to maintain a 4/5 star rating for this hotel

Complete let down
The hotel in a nutshell was a complete let down.. bad food very little variety... when we ordered room service it was always cold and it smell old... the heating didn’t work, the shower head was broken, the shower pressurer was horrible, and the tv only had one channel for westerners with horrible picture quality. The hotel as a whole was outdated. Parking was a nightmare. When I bought these issues to the hotels attention they went unresolved... I had plan to stay in Ethiopia for another 2 weeks but cut my trip short due to the bad taste this hotel lefted in my mouth. This hotel needs a major update.
