The staff are so welcoming and helpful. I got checked in quickly.
Everything was good, and breakfast was included. To reach the hotel from the transfer terminal, it’s a quick 5-10 minute walk—just follow the signs (clearer ones would be nice). Need to pass through security again to the hotel.
A peaceful and welcoming sanctuary after a long journey. The skylight in-terminal hotel is a beautiful place to stay, crisp linen, immaculately clean rooms, cool aircon and peaceful. I loved our stay here. The warm hospitality of the hotel and delicious breakfast made for a memorable stay and we were refreshed for the next leg of our journey! Don't hesitate it's a wonderful hotel and very convenient in the terminal.
We stayed here during a long layover in Addis Ababa. It was very nice and very convenient, being located within the terminal. Vendors in the terminal charge extraordinarily high prices and is not very comfortable, so it was very nice to be able to retreat to the comfort of this hotel.

Convient location inside airport terminal. The room is spacious and bed comfortable. However, the amenities are inadequate and tv wasn't switching off.
This is a convenient, safe option to overnight in Addis while transiting.

My husband and I always check in as a couple, yet the room is always prepared for single travellers. My request is that when bookings are confirmed, plse ensure that enough water, toilet paper, tea/coffee condiments and other bedding are in the room for two adults.
This Skylark property is inside the airport terminal (you don't need to leave the airport) not to be confused with the other skylark property which is a 5 min walk outside. Very convenient when you have a long layover. Clean, comfortable bed with a good shower.
Amazingly convenient. Stayed the night on a layover and didn’t have to clear immigration at all, walked out to the gate 20 metres from my room in the morning. Modern and clean rooms with a pretty good breakfast included
I often stay at this hotel when I'm transiting through Addis, but this time felt really special. I was welcomed at reception like an old friend by Wasihun and Hailegrorgis, and the check-in process was seamless. My room was in perfect condition and very comfortable. The food options for breakfast were better than before, and it's clear that all feedback is taken seriously. Well done to the Skylight team!
It's very convenient to stay at this hotel and overall, the facitilites are good and there is decent wifi access. The rooms are not soundproof, however, so the loudspeakers from the departure hall can make it difficult to sleep. There are good attemps with the breakfast buffet and I appreciated the delicous cappucchino.
Room super convenient and has all the amenities though water in shower wasn’t as hot as it could be. Also the restaurant was a bit meh in terms of breakfast food options
It was good, the staff were very professional and privided explanations regarding mynstay and their services/obligations to me. The airport prickup was timely too.
Convenient local. Room BO50 smelled of sewer, TV did not work, AC did not work stayed on 25deg. Breakfast was fridge cold, food was prepped the day before. Bed was comfortable, shower had hot water. But really deficient for $180/night when other government hotels close to airport are $50/nite.

Disliked: Amenities
Really good for transit within airport terminal. But there were 2 of us but the room was only prepared for one person. It also had no soap or body wash just body lotion and shampoo.
Friendly, helpful staff. Unfortunately the AC was not working so it was a very hot, uncomfortable night, made worse by the fact there was no hot water in the shower or sink.
