The best accommodations North

With its rock-church look, this hotel doesn't go unnoticed - the monumental door is rarely opened, and the entrance is from the side. The large lobby is carefully decorated with Ethiopian furniture. The twelve rooms are spacious, with colorful bedspreads (featuring angels), carved wooden headboards and furniture, and warm wooden floors. All have terraces with spectacular, vertiginous views, as do the restaurant and the garden with its pretty lawn and outdoor lounge. One of the best in this price range.

One of Bahar Dar's newest hotels, and an excellent address in its mid-price range. As well as offering clean, cosy, well-decorated rooms with good, functional bathrooms, air-conditioning, television and safe, it has a spa with hammam, sauna and massages at reasonable prices. Pleasant bar-restaurant. Free shuttle service and all-day tours. The spa really makes the difference! Optimal location also close to the lake without overlooking it. Wi-fi. The best in its category.

This is an exceptional ecolodge! First of all, it has to be earned, because after visiting Asheton Mariam, you'll have to climb for 5 to 6 hours to reach Lalibela Hudad (or 20 minutes by car and 1h30 on foot). Up there, you'll be blown away by the incredible view. The camp is made up of stone tukuls with thatched roofs. Magnificent solid wood bed frames, optimal comfort, solar electricity. The restaurant serves good food and Mesfin and Derebe are fantastic hosts. A colony of gelada baboons live on this beautiful plateau, right in front of your eyes.

In a remarkable pink building on the avenue skirting the lake, this hotel of 40 rooms is very appreciated tour operators for his modernism and its freshness. The rooms are rather impersonal, but comfortable, decorated in let us tons brown with tiled floor and of the facilities. Only the rooms of 4th have a beautiful view on the lake, the others are to be avoided absolutely, on the front of the building vis-a-vis a noisy nightclub. Elegant dining room of restaurant with central well of light (very correct cuisine). All in all, a pleasant address which justifies the additional charge. Ceremony of the café, Wifi, reception and service attentive.
