Top Twelve Hotel

Was a perfect choice. Dawit arranged our activities thru a guide called Tadesse, which was all in all a fantastic experience. The hotel has amazing sunset views and the view from the rooms are out of this world

No tuks tuks operating at night

I was a solo traveller woman and stayed in Top12 4 nights. The room is exactly as in the pictures: spacious, clean, with an amazing view and well styled. The breakfast was simple but enough. The staff was incredibly friendly, and very helpful: I can only thank Dawit and Jordanus for my stay. There is security at the entrance and is walking distance to the Churches or Lalibella town. Still the calm of the place is appreciated when you come back. I would also recommend the hike to Ashton Mariam. There is also an ATM at the entry but I would be careful because they charged me without having money.

My stay in Top Twelve Hotel was memorable. The hotel is located along a cliff offering the best view on the valley and outstanding sunsets. The breakfast on the terrace was tasty with home brewed Ethiopian coffee, omelet, local bread and honey. The hotel is warmly decorated with local colours and furniture.  My room was spacious with a private balcony and soothing view. The room was quiet, bed was comfortable, water pressure was not great but enough to shower with continous hot water. The hotel is at walking distance  from the outstanding Ben Abeba restaurant. Dawit and Yordanos are very nice and responsive hosts. They did their best to make my stay memorable, including the organisation of private guided tours in Lalibela and around.

Absolutely fantastic place, Staff is everything here. The amazing Yordanos, the girl in charge of cooking, store, gift shop and coffee ceremony is fantastic, always attentive, and share a lot of stories. Room is very good in size, view from the balcony is out of this world. You can book tours, walk around safely.

- Random water leaking in the toilet tank flooded all the bathroom but they quickly fix it. - water pressure is weak but considering the place is enough for a quick shower, water is a precious resource

The view is out of this world. The room was comfortable, light and spotlessly clean.

It's a really nice hotel with a great view. It was clean and had hot shower. The staff was very friendly and helpful and made my stay great and safe.

The decoration of the room has a lovely local touch. The view from the balcony was just astounding. The manager Dawit arranged the visit schedule and guide for a wonderful experience. I can only thank him and his lovely assistant for all the good vibes.

The shower could use a curtain.

Breakfast and location/view excellent

The room was immaculate and the view from balcony was spectacular. We loved how you could view the night stars from bed. Excellent breakfast. Great staff especially David and Ishta who did so much for us. They set us up with an excellent guide.
