About Empire Hotel, Jijiga
A story rooted in hospitality, community, and a passion for excellence.
Our Story
Empire Hotel was founded with a singular vision: to bring world-class hospitality to the heart of Jijiga and the wider Somali Region of Ethiopia. From our earliest days, we set out to create a space where travellers — whether visiting for business, government affairs, or leisure — would feel genuinely welcomed and exceptionally well cared for.
Over the years, we have grown from a modest establishment into one of Jijiga's premier hotels, continually reinvesting in our facilities and our people. Every renovation, every new amenity, and every team member we bring on board reflects our deep commitment to raising the standard of hospitality in this vibrant city.
We are proud to be part of the Jijiga community — supporting local suppliers, employing local talent, and welcoming guests from across Ethiopia and beyond. Our story is still being written, and we are grateful that so many guests have chosen to be a part of it.
Our Mission
To deliver warm, attentive, and genuinely Ethiopian hospitality in an environment of comfort and elegance — ensuring every guest leaves Empire Hotel not only satisfied, but truly inspired to return.
