Top Twelve Hotel

TOP12 is a new hotel in Lalibela, with, as the name says it, 12 rooms, bathrooms en-suite and balconies, from where you have a breathtaking view all over the valley and the mountains, especially impressive for sunset. Rooms and bathrooms meet absolutely Western standards but still have the traditional Ethiopian style.

Great hotel with perfect location and view

Reviewed By MsHaslund

I visited Top Twelve Hotel in Lalibela for a quick weekend trip to visit the Lalibela churches. This hotel was really great. The room was spacious and comfortable, and with the most amazing view from the large balcony. The staff was friendly and service-minded, and it was such a treat to have breakfast served outside right on the cliff-side with the spectacular view of the Lalibela surroundings. Can definitely recommend.

Winta Hotel

Amazing hotel!

Reviewed By Edinburghsaleem

I just stayed in this hotel and I was amazed how generous the hotel owner Daniel was. He offered me free dinner during the whole stay and addition without asking he prepared a packed breakfast for my early morning start. He is helpful and arranged transport in the morning The rooms are big and in addition there is hot water, which is always a bonus in Ethiopia. The breakfast is delicious and it's close to banks and eating places. The owner is friendly and you feel you are at home ! Great value for money and recommended for your stay in Harar ! Thank you Danielooking.

All the staff is very friendly and helpful! The lady of the hotel accompanied me to a nearby market to buy traditional clothes. The food is fresh and delicious! They also cook things that are not on the menu if you aks them. The rooms are simple but large, clean with balcony and in a quiet, safe area. The wifi works good in the room and even better at the reception. The price is very reasonable for the quality they offer!

Stayed there for a week and I was pleasantly surprised with the room. Good water pressure for the showers and a wonderful view. But no room service, terrible WiFi and the fact that the breakfast buffet runs out of food choices took away from the experience.

I've stayed many times in Addis over the past 10 years and this time i was on a 6 week contract where I stayed at the Bellevue Hotel. Management & staff were friendly and very helpful throughout my stay. Food was good. Room was comfortable and spacious and any issues were addressed immediately. Can't fault it at all. Although, it would be even better if it had a gym......certainly would make the stay even more enjoyable!

Blue Nile Guest House

My accommodation is found at Lalibela Ethiopia above the rock cut churches of Lalibela. Those are built in 12th century; from the hotel to the main entrance of the churches is a 3 minute walk. The hotel is new and comfortable, there is an access of cafe and food services.

The best location!

We arrived late at night in ADD and Abby, the owner of the Hostel, picked us up at airport, he was so nice to wait for us because of a big delayed of our flight. The rooms are basic but clean and spacious and hot water is also available. Our connecting flight was early in the morning and Abby arranged a taxi for us, very helpful!
