The best accommodations Wondo-Genet

This is the former imperial residence of Haile Selassie, now the government hotel Wondo Genet Resort, sold and converted into a private hotel. It's certainly very faded, but has a lot of charm because it's "in its juice", a seventies decor worthy of a film. It offers decent rooms with a marvellous view of Lake Awassa. To be avoided at weekends because of the Addis Ababa crowds and higher prices. In addition to the hotel's Soviet-style restaurant, a snack bar - not always open - serves simple dishes.
