Stays in Addis Ababa

Addis Ababa is Ethiopia’s capital and largest city, and the arrival point for most visitors. It is home to the African Union, the National Museum (where you can see “Lucy”), and Merkato, one of the largest open-air markets on the continent.

Most stays cluster around Bole — a short drive from Bole International Airport — along with the central Kazanchis and Piassa districts, putting cafés, restaurants, museums and business hubs within easy reach. Whether you are in town for work, a layover, or as a base for trips to the historic north, an apartment or studio here is often better value than a hotel.
