We stayed at the Weygoss for 7 nights. It is used by a wonderful range of people . . . We met families adopting Ethiopian children, a UN worker on furlough, people traveling on business, and tourists. It has a front desk staff that are very helpful (they will keep money safe, send clothes to the laundry, and answer questions... More

We stayed a couple of nights at each end of our family trip to Ethiopia. We have stayed there previously and the staff remembered us well and were genuinely pleased to see us again. We felt welcomed and almost at home. Security is good, rooms were tidy,. The breakfast provided (basic eggs, toast, juice, coffee) was basic. We stayed in... More

My partner and I stayed here for only one night in transit, and it was ok but not great. The room was small, dark, and had a terrible bathroom, but was clean. The reception staff were a bit dazed and not particularly helpful. However, all up it was decent value and it's in a handy location to restaurants and businesses.

Good value for the money. The standard rooms are very small, but the junior suites have ok space for a desk and a shared balcony. The breakfast is quite basic and the TVs in the room are only for decoration. In november 2012 Bole street which is the closest main street was mainly a big construction site. This refurbishment is... More

With new buildings and hotels being constructed everywhere you look in Addis Ababa you would think the hotel prices would be going down. That is not the case which is part of what makes Weygoss Guest House a hidden gem. With all the construction nearly all hotels in Addis are going to be victim to the sounds and nearly daily... More

It has become a little more decrepit since we first stayed here 6 years ago, but the Weygoss has consistently met our needs. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are clean, and the grounds feel secure. At a price less than 1/5 that charged by the Sheraton or similar hotels, we are able to overlook minor annoyances like loud... More

The atmosphere of this place was so friendly that it more than compensated for lack of luxury and mediochre breakfast. The location is nice - it's down a laneway so very quiet. The staff were super friendly and helped us out several times. And there's a lot of families there so the general feeling is very warm and cheerful. We... More

Everyone who works here, from the front gate to the kitchen, makes you feel welcome and wants to make your time in Addis comfortable with no worries. Many families here are adopting, and they provide a wonderful environment as well as help for everyone, from internet service to phone calls to playing with your new children. No matter what you...

Stayed at the Weygoss the rooms were damp and we got bitten by bed bugs. They provided us with a dirty small cot for our baby. Moved to another hotel which was spotless clean, nice staff, lovely choice of breakfast and a lovely travel cot.
