Best hotels in Gondar

Picture yourself on the balcony of Gondar Landmark Hotel – beneath you lies the sprawl of Gondar, its legendary castle and ruins, its churches, plazas (evidence of Ethiopia's Italian occupation) and, yes, the trappings of modern life. The hotel itself stands imposingly on the city's northern hillsides. The interior may not be quite as remarkable, but Gondar Landmark is certainly a comfortable and convenient base from which to explore the local historical attractions, such as Fasil Ghebbi – said to be the seat of Ethiopian emperors (and a fair amount of discord), and a handful of interesting markets and eateries.

The northern city of Gondar once served as Ethiopia's capital and the seat of its emperors. Although no longer a political powerhouse, its impressive 16th and 17th ruins reflect the city's royal and romantic past (with at its heart the Fasil Ghebbi fortress and compound). On the outskirts of town, and thoroughly modern in design, is Ruth Hotel. It's not palatial place, but you'll find pretty luxurious accommodation, facilities, and all the comforts you require. Importantly, you're just five kilometres from the sights, and 10 minutes from the airport.
