AWETU GRAND HOTEL
Read moreJimma lacked good, up-to-date hotels to accommodate business travelers to the regions, but especially tourists wanting to visit this very remote part of Ethiopia, teeming with incredible tribes. Awetu Grand Hotel opened a few years ago, and is now one of the city's most comfortable hotels. Modern, clean and affordable. Rooms are pretty and cozy, with brand-new private bathrooms with hot water, some with balconies. We only regret the lack of air-conditioning in the heat. Bar and wi-fi.
ILLU STAR INTERNATIONAL
Read moreNow the city's newest hotel, having been inaugurated in 2018, Illu Star offers pretty, comfortable rooms with en suite bathrooms featuring hot water, TV, WiFi, comfortable bedding, all at really modest prices. No need to look elsewhere for better comfort or value for money. What's more, the hotel not only boasts a lively restaurant, but also a spa and gym. Unexpected and really nice for a stopover in this remote, little-visited region.

MILKOMI HOTEL
Read moreThis hotel, housed in a recent pale-blue building, is located in the heart of the town of Nekemt. It's one of the best addresses in town, with a certain standing right from the entrance. The service is excellent, the staff friendly and the restaurant serves good Ethiopian cuisine, including typical Wallaga dishes. Coffee ceremony in the hotel's superb lobby. Rooms with private bathrooms and hot water are cosy, spotlessly clean and super-affordable for a European wallet. Great comfort.
