I have stayed at the Global Hotel on numerous times due to its close proximity to the company office. Price is one of the cheaper in Addis ($70 a night). Service can be slow and the staff appear to be uninterested in solving any issues. Rooms are basic, but clean and cleaning staff area always on hand if you have... More

I choose to stay at Global Hotel given its proximity to the AU, which is the only reason that makes me go to Addis Abeba. The hotel is rated 4 star, but in fact, it should be 2 1/2 for their service and hospitality, in comparison to hotels standards in South Africa. Bathrooms are generally cleaned Ethiopian style, but maintenance... More

The worst part was the ear-splitting noise from the basement night club carrying on until 4am. The second worst part was that nothing works at all. Close the closet, it opens again. Open the water tap, and the water does not drip into the sink but slides down the pipe. Flush the toilet, but the brown matter stays. Take a... More

Rooms are large enough with sufficient hygiene, had hot water and some English Chanels on TV probably broadcasting from Mid East. Ther is also an Italian eatery and a... More

I have Just returned from Addis Ababa, checked in the Global on 23 Jan 10, room 607 was initially allocated to me. The shower never worked, water was trickling and no constant hot water supply. After complaining the hotel tried to fix it but still did not improve. Another room (603) was given the next day, shower slightly better. I... More

Hotel used only on nights before flights back home, so I cannot write a complete report. Even if the structure is old, rooms are clean, bathrooms are really ok and well equipped, cleanliness is appropriate. Breakfast and dinner are in the mid-range, but restaurant and bar are nice above all for the interior decorations.

Global Hotel is great! I went there with my boyfriend and two colleagues of him, first for two nights and after a tour to the North of the country for two other nights, always in a twin bed double room with private bathroom and a little balcony. The rooms had a good size and were always clean, the price was... More
