My experience at Haile resort was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of luxurious accommodations, outstanding service, and prime location made for a memorable stay. A special mention goes to Ephrem, the shuttle driver, who was exceptionally courteous and helpful, making my transfers to and from the airport seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Awassa and look forward to returning on my next trip.

The hotel was full of very polite & friendly staff. I felt, as a white woman staying there with a black partner, that some of the female staff around the restaurant could have been more interactive & so for this reason l givecthe hotel, in general, 9 out of 10. Thankyou for looking after us!

Excellent Hotel. Friendly and very accommodating staff. Excellent food and selection of choices at breakfast. Beautiful setting. The view of Lake Awassa from our floor was stunning--changed every time we looked out the window. There was a problem with our initial room request, but they quickly fixed things for us.
