The staff here are top notch! The cleaning staff really made our room sparkling every time. The laundry service did a great job, and was fast. We ate the buffet many times and really enjoyed it. We would definitely stay here again. Only criticism is that the internet was slow. Other than that, really a great stay!

Very few negatives. Wi-fi had a tendency to conk out every once in a while. A bit far from the main city area. City noise was audible through window. Other than that, very good value. Make sure to have front desk arrange a van if you need a ride to airport.

The staff at the Seram is very friendly and helpful. The gym music is a little too loud, we could hear it three floors up.

The staff was very helpful. It is a ways from the airport, but only about 20 minutes. They have a shuttle.

We had a great stay in Sarem. The staff were very friendly and always went out of their way to help. The facilities were great- good gym, nice rooms, the food at the bar and restaurant was fantastic. The area where the hotel is located was really great- away from most of the tourist traffic so it was nice to walk around the streets and experience authentic local culture. Felt very safe. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

比較的新しいホテルなので設備は問題ありません。WIFIも問題なく繋がります。スタッフはとても親切で、レストランの食事も美味しい方だと思います。アジスのホテルは最近どこも高くなりましたが、一泊60ドルで泊まれるホテルとしてはお薦めできます。ただし、ネット予約とホテルの間の連携がスムーズではなく、領収証は必ず持って行った方がいいでしょう。

We stayed at the Sarem International Hotel at the start of an organized tour. The tour company probably uses this hotel for a quick and easy departure out of Addis Ababa to the north. The hotel is a long way out of the downtown area, and not convenient to any of the major tourist attractions; but the attractions tend to be scattered around town, so that isn't a major drawback. The hotel seems more for business than for tourists. All the staff were incredibly friendly and very accommodating. A great buffet breakfast is included with the room.

Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was modern, new, spacious and definitely cheaper than in comparable other places in Addis Abeba. Breakfast was not exceptional, but ok. Unfortunately the internet was down at the time of my visit, but this will presumably change in the future. The hotel is located in the north of Addis Abeba, not too far from the national museum, but very far away from the Bole road and the airport.

Couple issues with the wifi and cable but for the price you expect some flaws. They made passwords required for wifi which made a huge difference in overall speed throughout the property. Still pleased with overall stay.

The hotel is clean, the staff are helpful, some even going above and beyond. The food is decent in price, taste, and wait time and the wifi is great when too many other people are not on it. The laundry service is good and you can efficiently change money. There are many staff who do not speak english fully, so sometimes things get lost in confusion. It was initially difficult to get in touch with the hotel to coordinate the airport shuttle, until I was at the airport and a local tried several numbers for me. There was an issue with their key card system so I did not have a personal key my entire stay and had to be let into my room. Since my second room was nice, and quieter than my first without a key, I was not interested in moving to a third room with a manual key. The location was close to what I needed to do, so overall I was pleased enough with my stay.

Other reviewers have commented no shuttle was waiting for them upon arrival - I emailed and confirmed my airport shuttle several times, and it was indeed there when I arrived. I just didn’t know WHERE it was, and had to make several calls to find out. The poor driver was waiting for me for some time way outside the terminal. That being said, communication with the hotel via email was slow, if and when they actually responded to me. Staff were pleasant but speak only basic English. Currency exchange at the front desk is a bit below market rate. Rooms were clean and spacious (I had a twin) with a good view. Huge bathrooms and a fantastic shower/bath - hot with great pressure and lots of space. Free bottles of water left in the room every day. Restaurant food was mediocre and average prices for this kind of hotel - the breakfast was the exception (it was very good). Restaurant staff are super lovely, but don’t be afraid to check out some of the great little local restaurants just up the street to the left (25 birr injera meals). Cheap water is also sold at several shops nearby.

Mycket familjärt hotell och trevlig serviceinriktad personal. Men, jag blev inte hämtad på flygplatsen trots att jag mailat dem om det och fått det bekräftat, fick ringa från flygplatsen och vänta. Vid utcheckning krävdes jag på betalning av hotellnätterna jag redan betalat via hotels.com, de sa att de inte fått pengarna De la också på saker på min nota jag inte beställt. De bad inte om ursäkt när jag uppmärksammade dem på det. Synd, då hotellet i övrigt var mycket bra och framförallt trevlig personal.
