Definitely try to get a room with a front balcony overlooking the Customs Building across the street and the Embassy of Türkiye to the right (I had room 201). Wi-Fi is available (but expect a very slow connection). Included breakfast is good, made to order omelet with strong coffee and fresh juice. Hot water in the shower and bathroom, small mini-fridge, comfortable bed, very friendly English-speaking reception, make for a good mid-range budget option. I booked and prepaid on Expedia, making it hassle free once in Asmara, and saving my cash for the restaurants and bars in Asmara. Reception can change USD at the normal government rate 15 nakfa to 1 USD. I actually walked to and from the airport, and it takes about one hour. Don't miss Ghibabo Restaurant nearby for 15 nakfa Asmara beer and traditional food like kitfo (tasty pizzas, too). Recommended hotel! ##### David Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### freweini May 26, 2025 ##### freweini Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### S Mar 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### S Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yodit Dec 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Yodit Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Saba Dec 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Saba Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Cindy Oct 14, 2024 Liked: Staff & service ##### Cindy Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Liliana Oct 11, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Too expensive for what it is.

La stanza è semplice, ma necessiterebbe di molta manutenzione. Non c'è acqua, occorre telefonare ogni volta in reception, per far pompare l'acqua, diversamente non è disponibile. Le ragazze in recpetion, salvo la signora che parla italiano, non sono cosi cortesi. Il wifi non funziona. Noi eravamo al 3' piano. Se volete fare una chiamata dall'hotel fate attenzione che è un furto.. ##### Patrizia ### 10/10 Excellent #### kwendeche Mar 15, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location! Great service! Convenient to all sites. ##### kwendeche Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Michael Jan 20, 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort Ich kann die teilweise sehr guten Bewertungen nicht nachvollziehen. Die Lage des Hotels ist gut, alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig zu erreichen. Den zunächst gebuchten Standard-Room habe ich schnell wieder verlassen. Ich bin dann in einen Superior-Room umgezogen, $ 35,00 Aufpreis/ Nacht. Außer einer nichtschäumenden Seife werden keine Pflegeprodukte bereitgestellt. Aus der Dusche kam nachmittags nur kaltes tröpfelndes Wasser, morgens war es etwas besser. Das Bad ist vergammelt. Am zweiten Tag gab es keine Zimmerreinigung. Die angegebene Klimaanlage und den Deckenventilator gab es nicht. Gleiches gilt für den Zimmersafe. Vom Hotel sind kaum Informationen auf etwaige Fragen bezüglich Asmara und Ausflüge zu erwarten. Das Hotel stellt eigenes UV- und Ozonbehandeltes Trinkwasser her, mir hat es nicht geschmeckt. Eine Verdunkelung des Zimmers ist mangels Vorhänge nicht möglich. WLAN ist faktisch nicht vorhanden. Das TV ist sehr ungünstig an der Wand angebracht, vom Bett aus ist es schwierig. In jeder Nacht bellende Hunde. Der Garten ist der Raucherbereich, neben dem Restaurant. Die Dachterrasse war verschlossen. Das Frühstück ist kaum genießbar. Personal und Getränkepreise sind gut. Der Flughafentransfer kostet keine $ 50,00, sonder etwa $ 28,00. Ein ansonsten so schlechtes Preis-/ Leistungsverhältnis hatte ich noch nicht. ![Klimaanlage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AA9D1A18FB15B134ED3904B6873FFCC58C00E2081579540357740.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Eventuell früher mal ein Deckenventilator](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EBE7B003FB2BC6CFB4E30C411C33648CBDAE564C1579540378157.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Nicht sehr einladend](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F00D36C2FE4DA15DB6DDD828417F53368D6B6C4B1579540379813.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A9C10D879431088B72899218CA7C5F4BC8AE4FBE1579540378967.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### non, 日本 Jan 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities シャワーのお湯は熱いが、水圧はとても弱い ##### non Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Staff were really helpful and the hotel's in a great location. Only downside is that the room isn't well soundproofed, so noise from the corridor could be loud. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### SteveB Nov 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The best choice in Asmara. Great location in the center of town. Very good, friendly and attentive service. Very clean room and hence a very good stay. Given the financial and investment situation in Eritrea, it is unsurprising that the rooms are a little spartan but that is no criticism of the hotel. I would definitely return to the Crystal. ##### SteveB Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019
