The Row Residential Hotel
A short walk from the cathedral, a short ride to the gate

About this hotel
The Row Residential Hotel keeps its offering focused: free Wi-Fi, free parking and its own airport shuttle cover the practical essentials for a short stay reporting an 8-minute taxi ride to Bole Airport, among the closer options in the cluster. A 7-minute walk reaches Medhanealem Cathedral, giving guests a walkable landmark for a spare half hour, and La Nouvelle Cafe & Restaurant sits just 1 minute away for a nearby dining option. This is a residential-style stay rather than a full-service hotel, without a pool, spa or restaurant of its own, built for travellers who want a short, predictable ride to the terminal and don't need an extensive amenity list to go with it.

Our take
This suits travellers prioritising a short ride to Bole Airport and a walkable landmark over a full amenity list. The nearby cafe and cathedral give the property a bit more to offer than a purely functional stopover. Travellers wanting a pool, spa or on-site restaurant should look toward the cluster's larger business hotels instead, since this property keeps things deliberately lean.
- Walk to Medhanealem Cathedral the evening before an early flight for a spare half hour outdoors.
- Eat at La Nouvelle Cafe & Restaurant just next door rather than relying on the hotel for dining.
- Use the airport shuttle for the reported 8-minute ride rather than negotiating a taxi at an odd hour.
Why we love it
- Reported 8-minute ride to the terminal

Why guests love itThe Row Residential Hotel is a four-star hotel about eight minutes by taxi from Bole Airport, and I would book it for a short stop where the transfer matters most. The hotel runs its own airport shuttle, and free Wi-Fi and free parking are included. La Nouvelle Cafe & Restaurant is a minute away for a meal, and Medhanealem Cathedral is a seven-minute walk if you have a free hour before the flight.
