    What a fantastic stay! The kids loved the spacious Deluxe Double Room, and the buffet was amazing with a variety of cuisines. Plus, we enjoyed a lively night at the Aksum with great music. The staff made everything so easy for us.

    For dads, it would be great if the Wi-Fi was stronger for kid-friendly activities.

    amazing breakfast

    Perfect for a Solo Getaway

    The staff here were unbelievable! They really treated me like royalty, and the toiletries were high-end, just what you expect. The food wasn’t just good, it was fantastic, especially breakfast with tons of choices. I couldn’t get enough of the outdoor seating by the pool, it was pure bliss.

    Sure, it wasn't cheap but I would say it was worth it.

    unsafe neighborhood

    Our group vacation was fantastic! We explored local spots and visited the giraffe center and a vibrant craft market. The hotel's heated pool and exceptional service made our stay even better. Don’t miss the amazing breakfast—it’s a great way to start your day. The staff is attentive and will help you with anything you need.

    The surrounding area felt a bit unsafe for walking outside of the hotel, which was a bit disappointing.

    outdoor pool
    spa treatments
    missing amenities

    We enjoyed a lovely stay with clean, spacious rooms and it was a treat to unwind by the outdoor pool after a busy day. The spa treatments and relaxing garden area were fantastic for some much-needed downtime. Just a minor note, a few room amenities could've been better stocked, but that didn't take away from our overall experience. 😊

    The location was perfect for my visit to the nearby cathedral, just a short walk away.
