I stayed at the Skylight hotel three times this summer. Service was exceptional. My room was great. The front desk staff is superb. I would also like to compliment Nat, who is an outstanding server in the Tiny Italian restaurant. He is very friendly and does a fantastic job as a server. Great job!

A peaceful and welcoming sanctuary after a long journey. The skylight in-terminal hotel is a beautiful place to stay, crisp linen, immaculately clean rooms, cool aircon and peaceful. I loved our stay here. The warm hospitality of the hotel and delicious breakfast made for a memorable stay and we were refreshed for the next leg of our journey! Don't hesitate it's a wonderful hotel and very convenient in the terminal.

Great for a layover

We stayed here during a long layover in Addis Ababa. It was very nice and very convenient, being located within the terminal. Vendors in the terminal charge extraordinarily high prices and is not very comfortable, so it was very nice to be able to retreat to the comfort of this hotel.

My husband and I always check in as a couple, yet the room is always prepared for single travellers. My request is that when bookings are confirmed, plse ensure that enough water, toilet paper, tea/coffee condiments and other bedding are in the room for two adults.

An in-terminal hotel is so helpful together with really friendly and helpful staff. But over the last 2 years the quality of the hotel has deteriorated in my opinion. For example, although my husband and I always book as a couple, we always have to ask for additional towels and water. We've also noticed maintenence is not up to standard eg overflowing shower drainage, and the smell of both damp and sewage in the corridors. Airport announcements are also loud. Hopefully these are just passing problems.
