Hotel Winta Hotel
Werwari sefer, Arategna, Hārer, Ethiopia – Good location – show map
The main reason to stay at the Winta Hotel is Daniel, its owner. He is always there, ready to help you with whatever you need. He offered me a free lunch and beer upon arrival, payed for my first tuk tuk, found a guide for me and gave me a bag with water and bananas for the trip back to Dire Dawa. Breakfast is decent, with fresh juice and coffee, and your choice of eggs. That said, the hotel is very simple. It urgently needs a fresh cost of paint and new mattresses. Don't expect anything fancy.
United States of AmericaThe room was clean and big enough, the beds comfortable. Breakfast was simple but plentiful and prompt.
United States of AmericaDon’t plan on paying with a credit card. Plan on paying in cash. Daniel and the staff are fabulous.
United States of AmericaDaniel , the manager of Winta is the most hospitable and the most friendly host we have ever met, and I don’t mean just in Ethiopia! At each of four evenings in Harar we had dinner in Winta, and every evening we had to urge (!) Daniel to except payments for meals we had eaten and for the beers we had drunk. The same way Daniel treated other guests who stayed in Winta during our stay there. Daniel treats people who stay in Winta not as customers but as his personal guests!
LatviaVery nice. All friendly staff with thanks to Daniel the manager and Leshan the guide.
Saudi ArabiaWonderful staff, especially Daniel the manager whose smile and enthusiasm greeted us each day. He and his staff are so warm and friendly and generous!
CanadaThe host (Daniel) was great and very helpful as were his staff. The food was also good. The rooms are basic and the bed a little saggy but for the price it's a fair deal. Good option when in Harar
AustraliaThe staff from the owner Davit, the cooking and serving staff , the man who helps with luggage and Lishan the guide who does a magnificent job.
United States of AmericaUpon arrival I was offered a very generous free lunch. The owner was extremely nice and put me in touch with a local guide called Alem who was also great and very reasonably priced. The owner always asked me if there was anything else I needed or if he could help in anyway. After spending 2 weeks in Ethiopia I noticed this to be a rare quality and I appreciated his attentativeness.
United KingdomExcellent food, great staff, comfortable rooms and bed, the best coffee in Africa, fresh 100% mango juice, cool beer, friendly owner, good Wi-Fi. We had a great time in Harar and definitely recommend the Winta Hotel.
