Hikma Pension

Northern Ethiopia


This simple spot on the town's top traffic circle (where the road to Bati enters town) has good rooms on the top (2nd) floor, but the rest are cramped, musty, have peeling lino floors and are not averse to the occasional questionable smell in the bathroom.

Despite limited choice, the terrace restaurant (breakfast from Birr40, mains Birr45 to Birr110) is popular, especially for breakfast. The rest of the day it does everything from pizza to shiro.
