Summary: We had a wonderful stay in Babagoya Viewpoint Lodge. It was a lovely few days away from the hustle and bustle of Addis Ababa. The resort has fabulous animals around - Six large tortoises roam around, rabbits you can feed, and so much fascinating birdlife (Jan can tell you more about the birds around the lake). Our room was a sort of treehouse which was very fun and had a stunning view of the lake when you wake up in the morning. All the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, and it was very easy for us to arrange trips nearby through the lodge - we went to Green Crater Lake by bajaj (tuk-tuk) with a driver from the lodge. The food was good, and the reception area was a great place to relax and take in the views. I would recommend Babagoya Viewpoint Lodge to anyone wanting something with more of a homemade feel than a hotel, hidden away in the trees around the beautiful Bishoftu Guda lake.

Summary: While the accommodation is a little basic, the location and the helpfulness of the staff make this a wonderful place to stay near Addis Ababa. The price is very reasonable and the food freshly cooked, with a variety of Ethiopian and international dishes. Jan and his family go out of their way to make your stay memorable. I am a keen birdwatcher and Jan personally took me out at no cost, showing me the best sites so I could go again on my own later. Unless you are looking for luxury this is a real find.

Summary: This place was amazing. A delightful blend of Ethiopian culture and Mediterranean esthetic. The food on the menu was delicious every time, whether it was spaghetti or shiro. The hotel owner and his staff were always available to bring you to the market or recommend good sight-seeing. Waking up in the morning to a flock of cormorants roosting near your treehouse is once in a lifetime, and even the 106 steps down the terraced yard is worth it to take a canoe trip on the lake. This place is well worth the hour drive from addis and we will certainly come again when we are next in Ethiopia!

Summary: First things first, pay attention to the name of the property - it's a LODGE... not a RESORT. If you need a butler and 5-star amenities, then keep searching. But if you want to become one with nature, then this might be the place for you. Upon arrival, just walk in and pick the hut/room you want. There are two types; the ones near the entrance that have a shower & toilet... and the ones down the walkway closer to the lake, which don't have a toilet. Also, if you want to order a meal, they won't deliver it down by the lake. All beds have mosquito nets. Early one morning, I did take advantage of the kayaking opportunity. I paddled out to the middle of the lake and just took it all in... breathtaking views, various bird calls, and the peace & quiet that you will not find in Addis Ababa. The meals were delicious... and if you receive an invitation to partake in the traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony, then take it. I highly recommend the pizza (huge) and the fish. They will also escort you into town for a shopping excursion. Although Wi-Fi is advertised, connectivity is sporadic due to the hotpoint belonging to the resort across the lake. Also, one night I had to bathe via a bucket of warm water. No big deal... after all, it is a lodge. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anybody who wants to get away from it all, and doesn't mind "roughing it". The owners/staff were courteous & helpful. I only stayed for two nights... but three or four would be ideal as well.
