Fantastic

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *“My experience at the spa was truly unforgettable, and I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Sabrine and Anne Marie. From the very first moment, their warm welcome and genuine kindness made me feel comfortable and valued. They both have an extraordinary way of combining professionalism with a personal touch, creating an atmosphere of serenity and care. Sabrine’s attention to detail and her radiant smile made every interaction a pleasure, while Anne Marie’s graceful presence and dedication to excellence added a sense of luxury to the whole experience. Together, they embody the true spirit of hospitality and well-being. It is rare to meet people who not only excel in their work but also make you feel so special as a guest. Thanks to them, my visit was not just a treatment, but a moment of peace and happiness that I will always remember. I highly recommend asking for Sabrine and Anne Marie if you want your spa journey to be extraordinary.”*

Disappointing

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

I had high expectations when visiting the bar at the Kempinski in Djibouti, but unfortunately my experience was disappointing. The atmosphere was uncomfortably cold, which made it difficult to relax and enjoy the setting. On top of that, the music was far too loud, more suitable for a nightclub than the bar of a five-star hotel. Overall, the environment lacked the warmth and comfort one would expect from such an establishment. A real pity, considering the reputation of the hotel.

Exceptional hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

After a year of staying at Kempinski, I have nothing but praise! The staff, in particular, truly impressed me. The reception team (Ladane ⭐️), the restaurant staff (Alphonce ⭐️), the spa and pool teams, and the housekeeping staff (who remembered all my preferences) were outstanding. Congratulations!

Disappointing – Hotel urgently needs renovation

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

While the staff is really friendly (front desk staff is nice, lovely lady at breakfast’s egg station who remembers all guests), it seems that middle & top management simply do not care. The hotel screams for renovation. Seems it got frozen more than 25 years ago. Old-school rooms, lacking sufficient plug-ins to charge devices. Coffee spoons at breakfast seem to be the rarest items. Sauna is in a disgustingly shabby and unhygienic state. Etc etc Apparently the hotel relies on steady income from military guests (seemed to make up 75% of the guests at breakfast..) and hence is not motivated to bring this place to current standards. Am surprised that Kempinski still let them use their brand given the overall status…
