Tukul Village Hotel

The churches are easy to reach on foot from here, and we slept well during our four nights. The rooms were spacious, attractive, and very clean. Each morning, hearing the church chanting was a special part of the stay. Breakfast comes with the room. The menu is short, with options like porridge and eggs; we usually chose the eggs, which were lovely with homemade bread and local honey. There was plenty of hot water from the bathroom heater, the WiFi worked well, and we got our laundry done for a very reasonable price. Airport pickup can be arranged for an extra charge. We also hired a driver and guide for the churches outside Lalibela at a reasonable price. His English wasn't very strong, which could be a plus or a frustration depending on how much you like to chat with a guide. It was fine for us, though now and then we couldn't get an answer to a question. I'd recommend staying here.

We got to go into our rooms early in the morning, and everything was ready and spotless. Every staff member was friendly and helpful, and check-in was easy. The rooms are decorated beautifully in the Tukul bungalows, with modern bathrooms and balconies looking out over the hills of Lalibela. Food was a real highlight. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in traditional mosebs, and it was all delicious. The churches are about a ten-minute walk away. We had a lovely, memorable stay and wholeheartedly recommend Tukul Village. Thanks, Tukul Team!

The location works well, close to Beit Giyorgis Church and the souvenir shops around the roundabout and along Main Street. Staff were eager to help and make guests happy. Our room was spacious and clean, with good beds and very hot showers. I do think the lighting could use a little improvement.

A really lovely hotel in Lalibella. The traditional-style rooms feel roomy but still cozy, and the little porches look out over the valley and town. The restaurant was delicious, though it seems quite new. There's hot water, which is a big plus, and restaurants, a bank, and craft shops nearby. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful.
