Asmara

Asmara Palace Hotel (formally the Intercontinental Hotel)

Out by the airport. the odd spaceship-looking hotel probably has the comfiest beds. but why commute from so far away at such an outrageous price? one can be just as comfortable for much less in the middle of the city where there are plenty of cheap or moderately-priced hotels ranging from us$10-60.

Albergo Italia (formally the Keren Hotel)

By the central post office.

Nyala Hotel

the city's highest building on martyrs avenue.

Embasoira Hotel

Behind independence avenue on the east side.

Hamassien Hotel

Right next door to the embasoira. the swiss-cottage-looking building.

Sunshine Hotel

Near the roof garden restaurant.

Selam Hotel

A few blocks away from the presidential palace and the national museum and has a nice garden.

The Buon Respiro

Is a very cosy bed and breakfast in an ornate italian villa with a nice patio in the middle of the city just a few blocks from cinema odeon.

The Crystal Hotel

Behind cinema roma, similar to the sunshine hotel.
