Great value for money if you’re looking for a place to rest, get a shower, and have delicious breakfast in the morning. The location is not too far from coffee places, but I haven’t walked around to discover the area. I would definitely stay there again. Btw, I couldn’t pay by visa and I paid online through Expedia.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. The shuttle drivers were good people. Loved the free breakfast and coffee. The lounge on the roof was great.
Overall great experience.
Wonderful stay! The room was spacious and comfortable, the staff was extremely friendly, and everything was very clean. The hotel exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended.
Everything was excellent; the staff is so friendly. Breakfast is good with a wonderful view of the city.
Only minor issue: the driver for the airport pickup service delayed around 30 minutes to pick me up.
Clean rooms, views from the rooftop are so magical! Different breakfast options for different days. Love it!

VERY friendly staff. I stayed 3 weeks had no complaints except for occasional very minor glitches … normal for that duration. Those were addressed instantly. Room soon felt like a comfortable and familiar “nest” in Addis. Two restaurants were better than most external restaurants. Recommend.
The staff were super friendly.They even gave me a wonderful birthday present (upgrading my room) 😍and they made me a small birthday party by bringing a cake to my room and singing to me 💜
Its nice and clean. Friendly workers. The service is good. And the location is perfect. Because it's center of the city

Very loud nightclub on the roof, not the best for sleeping. Wish there was a quiet comfortable space to just have a beer with out the music. Other then that it was good. The gym renovations has taken a lot longer then expected. Location is very good
The staff were warm and welcoming right from the entrance. They assisted my mum and me with her luggage, and check-in was quick despite a temporary power outage, which was beyond their control. The room was a comfortable size for two, and overall, we had no issues.
I had a wonderful stay at Monarch Hotel. The room was comfortable and the staff very pleasant and helpful. This made the stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel has several restaurants. I liked the 360 restaurant that has a great view and is always lively in the evenings. I enjoyed the diner and drinks there on several occasions.
The monarch has a fantastic view of the city and the staff at the place were very accommodating. Joseph was particularly professional and allways apeared just at the right time to answer questions and be super helpful! Thanks Monarch and Joseph

The staff were relatively friendly. But I did not like the fact that it’s noisy all the time. There was construction going on at all times, I felt restless.
The rooftop area was excellent for entertainment. Nice ambiance up on the rooftop with live music and djs occasionally. The cleaning staff didn't clean my room 2 of the 4 days. The breakfast which was included was served cold without burners keeping the food warm. Check out process took me about an hour. That's unacceptable.
Everything works for me except that the Elevators are two small boxes for the entire building. I stand 12 minutes to get into one. Just pray there is no fire or emergency that you need to get out of that building fast. Otherwise, I like the service, cleanliness, and everything else.

I booked this hotel through Expedia for one night. I checked in around 10 p.m., and when I was checking out, the front desk told me I had to pay for some snacks and other items that I hadn’t used or touched. The manager came over, and I explained that I hadn’t taken anything, but she still insisted that I had to pay.
It wasn’t really about the money. What upset me was being treated like I was lying. I found that very disrespectful and frustrating, especially when I knew I hadn’t used any of those items.
Amazing! I will definitely stay here again. Super kind and helpful staff - great food and an amazing location close to everything great.
Highly recommend.
