Best rooms
Request a room on a higher floor (above 5) for a quieter stay, as the lower floors may receive more street noise from እንድላል 179. Avoid rooms near the lift as it may be a source of disturbance throughout the day.
Request a room on the top floor if available – less footfall above you. Also ask for one facing away from the street, as main roads in Asmara can get traffic noise early.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the lift and on lower floors (1-4) may be noisier due to the proximity to the street and potential lift usage.
Avoid rooms next to the lift shaft or stairwell door; these carry clatter from other guests. Also steer clear of rooms directly above the reception or bar if the hotel has one – evening chatter can drift up.
