Great Hotel with Great Staff.

Reviewed By travelpoorliverich

I love this Hotel. The manager Abebe likes to call it my second home and when I am in Addis Ababa it really is. The beds are comfortable, the showers are hot and the hotel staff will do everything they can to make sure you are taken care of. The location is close to the airport and the hotel will provide a driver to pick you up and drop you off. Overall this a great hotel that will make sure you are taken care of whether you are just passing through and our in need of a longer stay.

Unsolicited wake up calls!

Take the phone off the hook to avoid being given an unwanted wake up call 4hrs before your flight departs. This hotel is the best of a bad bunch from my experience but the customer service is woeful. Avoid long transits in Addis if you can possibly avoid it.

Reviewed By BhattFoundationInc

Hello everyone, I just wanted to take the time to thank each and every one of you at the Zobel Resort Hotel in Gondar, Ethiopia. I felt like I was at my home and each every one of you was outstanding in taking care of my daily needs, including providing Ethiopian coffee at early morning sunrises at the hotel balcony. I never felt like I was away from my home and country, and I sincerely thank you for that. Nowadays, hygiene is of the utmost importance, and the cleanliness of the staff was excellent for all guests. The room’s view was awesome, spacious and most importantly was clean. The bathroom was neat and clean, and the food at the restaurant was delicious. Every night, the night shift staff members were extremely personable with a big smile on their faces. Overall, I would like to give each and every one of you 10 out of 10 stars! I definitely will stay at Zobel for all my future endeavors and I will highly recommend this hotel to everyone when visiting Gondar, Ethiopia.

Emerald Lodge

Quiet, Abundant Birdlife, Views

Reviewed By Marlynne P

We were stranded here for several days due to uprisings in the southeast. It's a pleasant place and the birdlife is spectacular. The room was nice and the porch was a good place to sit and enjoy the views. We enjoyed the restaurant and the large patio, too. The lodge is a bit run down and more attention should be given to the spa and the equipment that is for rent. The spa is in grave need of repair and all of the bikes, etc. are broken or in sad shape.

Excellent resort hotel

Reviewed By 67mulugetat

I stayed at this resort hotel at the end of April for 2 days. I was truly impressed with the view and scenery as well as the amenities. The rooms were spacious and well illuminated with a good view of the surrounding areas. Water supply and the shower were excellent. I never expected anything like this. I would recommend this hotel to anybody visiting the city of Gondar without any reservations. I was truly impressed.

Wake up and smell the pizza

Effoi rules! Super convenient location, walking distance to many nice restaurants and easy to call a Ride. The hotel has WiFi, great pizza and friendly staff — highly recommended. The rooftop bar is a fun place to hang out in the evenings.
