Guest Reviews
The room and hotel view was incredible! Rooms were comfortable and nicely designed. The owner Eshetu and his daughter were wonderful and very warm. Very flexible and caring and treated us like family. Nice shop where we bought incredible souvenirs.
Nothing. I loved my entire experience. Just one thing... Don't expect luxury.. Lalibela is a small village. Lights go off, limited menu, no night life etc. Visit for the Churches and the overall experience.
Great staff and a really nice view!
Very helpful and kind staff and people, great rooms, great views. Hotel is a bit more remote from the center so quieter location (unless there are night prayers on special days). Recommended.
Very kind and helpful owners who know the city and region well. Great location a bit away from the center with great views. Very good rooms. Most recommended.
Perfect location, amazing views from the room, great breakfast,kindness and availability of the Manager.

旅の計画を立てた時からデビットには丁寧な説明をいただきお世話になった。ホテルのスタッフの方々、ガイドをしてくれたGirma、皆さんがとても親切でホテルというより家に招かれたようでした。食事も美味しく部屋も広くベランダから望む景色は素晴らしかった。
インターネット回線が良くない。wifiが使えたり使えなかったりする。
We highly recommend staying at Top 12 Hotel. The staff, the beautiful bedrooms and the on-site restaurant are great.
The staff is very welcoming. The owner, Shetu, is keen on sharing stories with his guests and has created from scratch this lovely hotel. The rooms are carefully decorated, super comfy and the views on the valley and sunsets are absolutely stunning.
Dawit, the receptionist, is also very friendly and eager to help out and make you feel very welcome.
The two ladies in the kitchen are amazing. The food they prepare is extremely fresh, tasty and healthy. And their smiles are warm and generous.
Please come and visit Lalibela. We felt very safe and at the moment (April 2026) there are no tourists so you'll have the rock hewn churches just for yourselves!
Melesa, the tour guide Introduced to us by the hotel, is also highly recommended. He was very kind, knowledgeable and patient to show us around. We never felt rushed. He was always responsive to our requests and always perfectly on time.

The staff were extremely kind and helpful. The food was freshly cooked using local ingredients. The views from the rooms and terrace were beautiful.
Nothing.
La atención del propietario y del resto del personal. La preciosa terraza, con unas vistas maravillosas al paisaje de Lalibela. Los desayunos y comidas, una calidad excelente.
La conexión WiFi a veces fallaba.
Love this place. Staff makes you feel like at home. And thsn that amazing view.
Beautiful decorations inside, completely quiet at night, and great view.
Tour guide Tege for the churches very knowledgeable & patient, even took me to the special Commemoration of the Cross event early one morning.
Location is a bit farther from town, but that’s a given in order to have the view.
The tours offered by the hotel are highly overpriced. Do make sure to negotiate.
The most important negative point - the staff gives very mixed/contradictory information about the advisability of doing the activities outside of town or not. What I found, is that as of March 2026 after many rounds of unpleasant conversations with them, is it is still not recommended, due to security situation. There were Many contradictory statements from them that overall made me feel very uncomfortable with how the team is managed there & knowledge of customer service seems uneven at best.
My stay at Top Twelve Hotel in Lalibela was truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuine warmth and hospitality that made me feel more like a welcomed guest in a home than a customer in a hotel.
The hotel is beautifully maintained, very clean, peaceful, and perfectly located with breathtaking views of the mountains and Lalibela. Watching the sunrise and sunset from the hotel was simply magical. After long days visiting the incredible rock-hewn churches, it was the perfect place to rest and reflect.
What made this stay especially meaningful for me was the kindness and professionalism of the staff. Every single person was attentive, respectful, and always ready to help with a smile. Their service was truly exceptional.
I would also like to say a special thank you to the owner, who is a wonderful and generous person. His presence and care for guests truly shows in the atmosphere of the hotel. You can feel that this place is run with heart and pride.
My time in Lalibela was very special, and staying at Top Twelve Hotel made the experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Lalibela, and I hope to return again one day.
Thank you for such beautiful hospitality.
The team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and their kindness and hospitality made my experience in Lalibela even more special. I highly recommend Top Twelve Hotel to anyone visiting Lalibela. I would happily stay here again.
Beautiful place and such lovely staff! Thank you Dawit and Yordi! Also make sure to request Tade the tour guide. Absolute legend.
The staff was very accomodating and provided great service
Top 12 was incredible! Beautiful rooms, amazing views, lovely service and very safe! They arranged a great tour guide for the Lalibela churches and the food was great. Rooms are so clean and comfortable! Owner was personally available for us anytime which was so indicative of Ethiopian hospitality. We will stay again!
We had a wonderful stay in Lalibela. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with anything we needed. They supported us in arranging both a knowledgeable local guide and a smooth transfer. The hotel stuff served very tasty meals for lunch and dinners. From each balcony the views were simply breathtaking we had two rooms and both offered incredible panoramas. Everything was clean. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Lalibela.
My stay at Top Twelve Hotel in Lalibela was great. The view overlooking the mountains and landscape was really amazing. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating. They were willing to go the extra mile to ensure I was comfortable and happy. The unique furniture also added a perfect touch to the authenticity of the experience. I would highly recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Lalibela!
