We planned in checking in at the end of May, had booked our two rooms a month in advance. When we arrived at the hotel they told us they had no availability as a big tour group had arrived so they had given our rooms away. They weren't apologetic, didn't care and didn't offer us an alternative. We saw one... More

The best Lalibella has to offer. Amazing views overlooking the valley from all rooms. modern trendy place with a pleasant staff, decent restaurant and plenty of interesting public space. The rooms are nice with a great bathtub. WIFI in public areas only.

We stayed at Mountain View for 2 nights in early March. The spectacular view from the rooms & all common areas of the hotel is the main feature . Other aspects are functional for a short stay. You need an understanding that Ethiopia is in its infancy in catering for the requirements of international tourists and therefore service levels can... More

 good service and mangement. there is FREE WiFi in the lobby. I would recommend this hotel to anyone

Yes, there are spectacular views, especially to the north, from the terraces and room balconies. The architecture is striking for Lalibela, and the terraces are great for unwinding after a day of visiting rock-hewn churches.

The balcony views are wonderful especially for sunset. Viewed many soaring birds and appreciated the dry mountain air. The rooms are very adequate and clean. Lots of hot water in the functional bathrooms. The food was OK. The service a bit casual, however, there were several tour groups which seemed to overwhelm the staff.

This hotel is located on the top of the hill overlooking a large valley. After a day of walking around the church complex you will want to sit and watch the sunset with this spectacular view. Transportation for a fee can be arranged to/from the airport and the church complex. Guides can also be arranged at the hotel. There is... More

I would like to add my name to the evergrowing fan mail for the Mountain View hotel and their superb chef. First, the hotel with its red brick and earthenware pots is a real find. it's so important for the Ethiopians to feature their own ethnic style using their natural resources:wood, stone, camel hair, papyrus. More modern hotels there are... More

all the rooms are bright and airy with a glass wall that draws back to your own veranda with wonderful views. This well designed hotel was spotlessly clean and in a very peaceful location.The terrace areas great for having a drink and watching the sunset. If you want to take a break from travelling around this is the place
