Sheraton Addis: A Taste of Real Luxury in Africa

By far the best hotel in Ethiopia, if not the entire continent, the Sheraton Addis was the first hotel in Africa to join Starwood's Luxury Collection. It's the hotel of choice for business travelers, with an impressive 1,500 square meters of meeting space, the largest banquet and conference facilities in the country. There's a state-of-the-art business center and a professional staff on-hand to help with even the most menial of requests. Computer rental, translation services-- no sweat. And the Sheraton Addis is centrally located: opposite the National Palace on a hilltop overlooking the city.

Leisure travelers are likewise thrilled with the facilities at the Sheraton Addis: the Aqva Club with massage services, sauna and jacuzzi, outdoor swimming pools with underwater music, and an array of dining establishments serving International, Italian and French cuisine. Guests can take advantage of great rates on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, starting from just $200 per night with a hearty buffet breakfast and late 4 p.m. check-out included.
