Rooms
Thirty cosy, stone and thatched-roof bungalows are dotted around the lush confines of the lodge.
The bungalows combine minimalist decor with traditional Ethiopian design and come complete with balconies that have excellent views over the hills of Lalibela.
The rooms have their own seating areas, flat-screen TVs with cable channels, Wi-Fi access and private bathrooms that have both a shower and a bath.
Those with mobility issues should request a room nearer to the lobby, as there are quite a few steps between the lobby and bungalows further out.
