Summary: We chose this hotel based on location and reviews and the location is really good, close to the nain street, the metro & the old town. We booked in and as we were tired from the travel the room was ok but in the morning I realised there was no balcony, which i had booked. The room had a fridge, a good size bathroom & bed but we like to sit on the balcony, weather permitting, in the evening after a busy day's sightseeing. No problem, the receptionist changed the room to one with a balcony. The bathroom was smaller but not an issue. No fridge, just an empty space where one had been but not a big deal. Breakfast was simple but there was pastries, eggs, salads, fruit, yoghurt, juice & coffee so no issues with that.
The issue for us was there were no chairs on the balcony so we had to drag stuff out of the room to sit down, even though we'd asked for another chair. It was dirty because of pigeon poo that had clearly never been cleaned up, there were 3 air con units on the walls, 1 was ours and 2 were for the next rooms, all of the pipes leaked water onto the floor because they'd come away from the downpipe. Badly maintained & certainly not doing the infrastructure any good either. And the other issue was a leaking toilet that was also siphening all the time, this meant constant water on the tiled floor, again that means water seeping into the building. The shower isn't bad but sometimes became suddenly hot and cold and water escapes all over the floor through door gaps. Could be b

Summary: Very convenient central location. Pleasant modern hotel. Staff spoke adequate English. The included breakfast was pleasing.
If you use Google Maps, a note of caution. The government has changed the street name. Google still shows that the hotel is on Dujonchay Street, but if you're walking around (as I did) hunting for a street with that name on it, you'll waste a lot of time; the current street signs do not give the previous name.
Hotel staff referred me to an English-speaking guide for a nice all-day walking tour.
I was on Floor 5, and the hot water took a while to arrive, but was fine when it got there. The air conditioning worked fine.

Summary: The hotel is perfectly situated about 2 minutes downhill to the principal road in Algiers and a pleasant walk to the Bardo in one direction and Grande Poste, the port and casbah in the other. It is also near the metro. The staff are extremely helpful. The hotel is quiet.

Summary: Clean room, nice breakfast included with stay, close to all of the sights in Central Algiers. About a 5-10 minute walk to the subway - well connected. The hotel allowed us free parking which was very helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Summary: ABC is a modern, well-run hotel with helpful, friendly staff. The immediate surroundings of the hotel are a bit run down but it is just of one of the main shopping streets in downtown Algiers so with easy access to the main points in the city. Breakfast was a bit basic but the food in the restaurant in the evenings was good.
