"The Kempinski Hotel Djibouti is the BEST hotel for every confort one would need. The staff are simply WONDERFUL, the food is WONDERFUL and the area is absolutely Magnificient."
"We really enjoyed our stay at Ras Dika. Everything from front desk, housekeeping, breakfast service, and management were excellent, especially for the price. For the value, I would rate as one of the best in the area. A hidden gem for sure. "
"Great hotel pretty new as well compared to other hotels. A little pricey considering it was far away from downtown. Not a lot of restaurants around. Other then that it was a great stay"
"It was the second time I stayed in this hotel. I keep the same impression as the first time. The staff is extremely nice and polite and eager to please you. The rooms are spacious, the food at the restaurant is good, and the pool is great. I have special thanks to give to Mr Mohamed Said, Mr Khadar, Mr Hassan and Miss Kadidja at the reception. At the restaurant, everybody is nice and helpful but I give very very special thanks to Djama, the best waiter I've ever had.
I have to add I got a very bad experience with the receptionist Hasna whom I thought was not behaving professionally."
