The Tukul Village is a nice hotel with several "tukuls" each one with a room in the ground floor and another at the first floor. We had one at the first floor that was not finished, but as it was, was enough to say had been the best bedroom and bathroom we found in our trip in Ethiopia. The service... More

our tour company had promised to book us at Tukul village but when we arrived in Ethiopia had switches us to the Lal Hotel across the street, which as totally unacceptable (small, dark rooms, run-down and poorly maintained -- more like a hostel for backpackers. we walked to across the street to make our own reservation, but the Tukul had...

This was my fourth trip to Lalibela and the Tukul Village but my first since 2008. The menu has improved a thousand fold, the dining room is much more comfortable. It was wonderful to see all my old friends at the hotel. You only have to mention that you like something and they try to get it for you. They... More

My husband and I stayed at the Tukul Village in October 2011. The management keeps a rather distant attitude, and does not seem too interested in the guests. Rooms look nicer from outside than what they really are. We stayed in a groundfloor room and had a terrible mattress with coils sticking out the mattrress and making the sleep extremely... More

Tukul Village is the perfect place to stay, particularly if you want somewhere to unwind and feel looked after following some trekking in the mountains. Rooms are beautifully clean, spacious, with a great bathroom and the beds are positioned facing out of the curved windows onto the balconies and into the lovely distance. Our second floor room was particularly good... More

We call this "Too Cool" as we were really happy with the Tukul Village hotel. We (3 girls) stayed here over a weekend in July 2011. Because there were 3 of us, we had to request an extra bed when we made reservations. We were happy the room was ready, with the 3rd bed, extra towels, etc. when we arrived.... More

Tukul Village was the perfect place to stay in Lalibela. The rooms were large, clean, and had balconies overlooking the valley. The round style of the rooms is charming, and the only hotel in the area built in that way. It is very close to the ruins, and you can walk into the center of the town, or take a... More
