Together we are capitalizing on the Northern Historic Route of Ethiopia to offer guests a memorable place to sleep and eat good food, along the famous trail which includes the Blue Nile Falls, Lake Tana Lalibela, the breathtaking Simien Mountains and Aksum. We look forward to a long relationship with Radisson Hotel Group and to developing more projects and together to lift up the city of Bahir Dar and the Amhara region.”

Guests will be spoilt for choice with delicious food, which will include a bespoke concept restaurant, all-day dining as well as an Italian restaurant. For signature cocktails and drinks, the hotel’s three bars will provide delicious temptations for a treat or two, with a bar overlooking the glistening lake and another within a trendy club located on the basement level of the hotel. Guests can also keep their fitness routine on track in the fully-equipped gym, kick-back and let the excitement of the day melt away while being pampered in the spa, take a dip in the pool or sit back at the boat jetty, getting back to nature and basking in the panoramic lake views.
