About this hotel
Abat Guest House keeps a low profile in the Bole cluster: a simple, quiet stay reporting an 8-minute taxi ride to Bole Airport, among the shorter reported times in the district. A 9-minute walk reaches Medhanealem Cathedral, and Golden Plate Restaurant sits 5 minutes away for a nearby dining option beyond whatever the guest house itself offers. Without the extensive amenity lists of the larger hotels nearby, this property suits travellers who want a straightforward, low-key place to sleep before or after a flight rather than a full-service stay with a pool, spa or business centre attached to the room rate. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout, and the location keeps guests within easy reach of both the airport and a handful of nearby restaurants for evening meals.
- Short taxi ride
- Walkable dining
- Quiet stay
Our take
This suits travellers who want a quiet, unpretentious stay with a reasonably short ride to Bole Airport, without paying for amenities they won't use during a short connection. The walkable restaurant and cathedral add a bit of local texture. Anyone wanting a gym, pool or business centre should look to the cluster's larger hotels instead, since this property keeps things intentionally simple.
- Walk to Golden Plate Restaurant for dinner, it's the closest dedicated dining option to the guest house.
- Confirm your taxi pickup arrangement in advance, smaller guest houses in Bole don't always run their own shuttle.
- Visit Medhanealem Cathedral the evening before an early flight if you have a spare half hour.

Why guests love itAbat Guest House is one of the closer options to Bole Airport, about 8 minutes by taxi, which suits a family before an early flight. Guests rate it 8.8 from 62 reviews, and the stay is described as simple and quiet. Golden Plate Restaurant is a five-minute walk for dinner, and Medhanealem Cathedral about nine minutes on foot. I would not expect extras here; our advice is to treat it as a calm overnight.
