I have just returned from a week stay at the Djibouti Place Kempinski. I must say, the hotel is magnificent and I reckon it's one of the best hotel in Djibouti however everything is expensive compare to other cities around the world and the service at front desk are not of a 5 star hotel. Upon check in, the hotel... more

Impressive lobby with beautiful pieces of furniture and African art work displayed in the lobby. Great infinity edge pool with pool bar with the sea beyond. The beach, however, is all rocks and the hotel is close to the port, so how desirable it is to go in the sea is a question. Some very pleasant staff, but none appear... more

Understandably so, at $350/night, I had high expectations for the Kempinski Djibouti, especially after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. There is no doubt that its aesthetics are impressive, but the hotel really does end there. I must give it to the marketing team, as their pictures of the hotel on brochures make it look spectacular, but the reality is... more

This is the best hotel in the all country. None of the other hotel can try to match it. We have been rooming around the country and really enjoyed the luxury of this hotel at the end of our stay. This hotel is really affordable we will never have manage to afford an hotel like that back home. Food was... more

Stayed at the hotel for 3 nights in March. It was my first trip to Djibouti on business. The Hotel is excellent and the service is very good. It caters for people from all over the world as there is both a western and eastern influence in Djibouti. I viewed some of the other hotels in Djibouti and this stands... more

Whilst on the whole the room was well equipped, pool and business centre were worthy of the stay I have to say that the service left a lot to be desired. After waiting over 50 minutes at the poolside snack bar for a wrap and a drink (and almost missing our flight connections) and despite 3 reminders that we had... more

Our family (my wife and our 3 young children) spent 5 days at the Kempinski last summer. It was an excellent experience. The service is very pleasant and efficient. The pool is lovely. The water is cold and the kids would not get enough of it. What a better way to spend a HOT afternoon outdoor! The food was really... more

The Djibouti Palace was a pleasant surprise given the general lack of upscale hotels in Djibouti. The lobby is very impressive, and the staff seem very well trained. The room was large and well appointed, the bathroom being a particularly strong point. Breakfast was included and was one of the largest and most varied buffets I have seen in a... more
