description Objective: Emergency obstetric and newborn care services treat 70–80% of maternal deaths. This study aimed to assess satisfaction with comprehensive emergency obstetric and newborn care (CEmONC) services and associated factors among clients in the University of Gondar Specialized Hospital. Methods: Institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted on 404 participants using a systematic random sampling method. The study was conducted from March 5 to May 5, 2020, using interviewer-administered structured questionnaires. Binary logistic regression was used to find the association between independent variables and client satisfaction. The level of statistical significance was declared at a p value less than 0.05. Results: The overall clients’ satisfaction with CEmONC services was 65.1% (95% confidence interval (CI): 60.9–69.8). Clients’ satisfaction was affected by women who had antenatal care (ANC) of three visits (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 6.5; 95%, CI: 2.04–20.8), women waited less than 15 min (AOR: 4.15, 95% CI: 1.9–9.06), mothers stayed ⩽1 day (AOR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.09–0.9) and 2–3 days (AOR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.1–0.69), obtaining a welcoming environment (AOR: 4.6, 95% CI: 2.15–9.88), and getting providers explanation of examinations (AOR: 3.3, 95% CI: 1.97–5.52). Conclusion: The observed clients’ satisfaction with CEmONC services was suboptimal. Having ANC of three visits, waiting less than 15 min, duration of stay, obtaining a welcoming environment, and an explanation of providers’ examination were the identified factors of client’s satisfaction. Therefore, hospital managers and health professionals should work on the identified factors to increase the client’s satisfaction with these services.
