Ethiopian Airlines ShebaMiles Silver Lounge
★3.8(430 reviews)ADD
Bole's pay-per-visit option — paid entry, no SkyTeam status needed.
The Ethiopian Airlines ShebaMiles Silver Lounge sits in the international Terminal 2 at Addis Ababa Bole and is the airline's pay-in option at its home hub. Where the Gold Lounge needs SkyTeam Elite Plus status or a premium-cabin ticket, the Silver Lounge takes paid entry, so any traveller can buy their way in and wait away from the busy concourse before an international departure. The food and drink follow the airline's lounge standard — a complimentary hot and cold buffet with snacks, plus house wine and beer alongside soft drinks. It's the natural fallback at Bole when you don't hold airline status or a lounge membership, sitting between the status-only Gold Lounge and the independent Plaza Premium Lounge in the same terminal.
Crowding · varies with departures
A reasonable place for a short work session before a flight, with Wi-Fi and seating you can use for a laptop. Fine for email and light tasks rather than a dedicated work session.
A complimentary hot and cold buffet with snacks, alongside house wine and beer and a range of soft drinks. It's the same airline-lounge spread you'd expect from Ethiopian, available to anyone who pays the entry fee.
