The skylight hotel was amongst some of the best five star hotels I have experienced. Security, amenities, restaurants, location, 24 hour service, prompt and friendly staff and service, and more. The quality of the linen and commodities in the rooms were new and very comfortable. Highly recommended to stay here. For the price, I would never imagine to be this low.

A great and very comfortable place to stay for a layover or a couple of days in Addis. The hotel and rooms present very high-end and are spotless and comfortable. The staff were a little aloof and not engaging ... but also not rude, just a neutral experience with the staff.
