Top Gamo Gofa Hotel Reviews

Haile Resort Arbaminch

Haile Resort Arbaminch

10/10 Excellent
"I “Haile” recommend the Haile Resort in Arba Minch. The culinary offerings were high caliber. Great prices/value and always fresh. There are even some produce grown on the property. A fantastic view from the room and throughout the property. There are offerings for day trips or you can take a taxi to the downtown area and cruise around the community. You can pay with credit card or Ethiopian birr. I recommend you come to Arba Minch with your foreign currency already exchanged in Addis Ababa or you will have to go to the local banks and make change there. The locals expect Ethiopian birr not foreign currency. Overall it’s a quite peaceful community. The staff is very pleasant and everyone speaks English and Amharic. The customer service is top notch. Lots of attention to detail. Definitely a high caliber resort experience."
