Positioned approximately 6km from Ababa Bole International Airport within the Kirkos District of Ethiopia, the La Gare Bristol Hotel enjoys a strategic location near the historic La Gare rain station in the heart of the city. The project is envisioned as a vibrant, mixed-use development, anchored by the iconic La Gare station and complemented by dynamic retail streets and plazas.
This development features a unified architectural character with a network of public spaces that seamlessly integrate various uses and districts into a cohesive and memorable destination. The programming, layout and visitor experience are designed to create a place that feels both unique and deeply connected to the cultural fabric of Addis Ababa and its surrounding neighbourhoods.
La Gare Station stands as one of Addis Ababa’s most significant architectural and cultural landmarks, with its location serving as a defining feature of the development. Enhancing the area’s prestige and appeal, the Bristol Hotel, located in the Central Core Precinct of La Gare, is a premier 5-star city hotel. The hotel offers 143 deluxe guestrooms and suites across approximately 18,300 m2 of built-up area. The ground floor includes the arrival lobby of the hotel and back-of-house amenities. MEP services and parking are on level 1 with the level 2 podium featuring a gym, spa, all-day dining, meeting rooms, a kids’ play area, and an outdoor pool, with guestrooms spanning from Level 3 to Level 6. Mirage is responsible for the Project and Design Management Services.
