It is located close to the airport, and has friendly staff. The food is very good. The rooms are clean. Nice warm water in the shower. The only problem with this hotel is that the area around it is a bit noisy all throughout the night.

Decent Hotel in Sleazy Area

We had a good stay at the Wudasie Hotel, but we were warned by a number of locals that it is somewhat of a Red Light District at night. It is NOT the hotel's fault, and we never felt threatened in the hotel, but it was highly advised that we not walk around at night. There was a very sleazy club next door, and quite a lot of music noise at night (I use white noise and ear plugs so wasn't bothered much). The food at the hotel is GREAT! It was a really good transition for us coming from the USA and wanting to have safe food to fall back on. Their cooks are excellent (it's a small, humble kitchen with a basic menu which we enjoyed very much).

Wudasie Castle was outstanding and the staff friendly and helpful in every department: reception, restaurant, cleaning staff, drivers. Instant hot water, daily bottled water and well priced menu made for a very comfortable stay. Now back in the UK with happy memories and new friends made. Thank you!

Pros and Cons

I had the misfortune of having my cellphone stolen while walking near Meskel Square. The staff, especially the night manager, and several day employees were wonderful helping me deal with a very unpleasant situation. The rooms at Wudasie are clean, functional, beds are comfortable, plenty of hot water , but dogs barking every night from 10 until 1 or 2 was annoying. Neighborhood okay..

Best Hotel in Addis Ababa

I checked-in with lower expectation, as I had tried most the top hotels in Addis Ababa & always had issues despite paying much more money on the rooms & the brand. This hotel is a small hotel type, simple yet beautiful Ethiopian themed design. The bath tub fills up with extremely hot water which is hard to find in most hotels, finally the price was good for Addis Ababa standards. Staff are excellent...highly recommended

Very friendly, well-run hotel in a slightly obscure neighborhood that nonetheless represents authentic Addis. Just be aware that you'll need a taxi to get to the museums unless you want to walk for 45+ minutes uphill (and at altitude, as Addis sits at about 7,000 feet above sea level. Still, it's a nice place to decompress, with a cool little balcony from which to check out the city.
