Posts: 86Finding Macks
Hi. Sorry to hear you are not having much luck. Macks is down the small side road almost directly opposite the Sapphire hotel. Walk past the Shalla guest house and you will see the Macks yellow sign further along on the left. I am staying in the Sapphire and had a good session at Macks a few days ago.

Posts: 7Weekend update
So far, I've not managed so well. But do have some updates.
Thursday night I tried the Black Rose Bar (or Rose Bar as it's known to Taxi drivers). I was last there in 2005, so it was not at all how I imagined it. Lots of 'civilians' and so I wasn't sure which were working girls, other than the ones obviously already at a table of ex-pats. I tried to see who was making eye contact, or who would hold eye contact, but wasn't 100% sure anyone was. That said, the music was good. And their drinks are good, so I had a fun time people watching. I probably looked a little awkward and out of my comfort zone. There was some great eye candy there, but none obviously for sale. The ones making eye contact were not my type. I'm in my 40's. So girls in their early 20's! However, I considered this part of my recce.
I left the club and tried walking around as Googlemaps was saying there were MPs near by. Bumped into a couple of SWs, but otherwise, it was about 0130 and I didn't feel so comfortable so I got a RIDE back to my hotel.
Friday was OktoberFest. So nothing going on there.
Saturday. I tried to find a couple of the MPs mentioned near the Sapphire. I was looking for Macks which has had good writeups, and think it is on the road between Aclana and Sapphire, but didn't see it. Walked up towards Altas, but it was early afternoon and there didn't seem much going on, and I was very self conscious walking around. So bugged out. Regret that, but will try again in the week.
I'm more into slightly older girls (30's) and prefer the Milfy types well dressed, so tried the Sheraton bar, Hilton bar and Radisson. Not much at the Sheraton. Was a bit disappointed, but I guess they don't want to dress too overlty like working girls (or I picked a bad night). Hilton was dead as October fest was still going on, and Radisson was fairly lame. Two very unappealing ladies. Home again empty handed.
Had to work most of today, and assuming that Sunday is bit of a dead night? Although feeling restless and may venture out.
I think I found the MPs a little too intimidating and not so clean looking. Think I'd prefer a semi-legit place where extras may or may not be on offer (prefer that excitement rather than walking blatantly into a MP).
I have two more weeks, so am treating the next few days as more of a recce. Next up is DOME. And will try the hotel bars again. I know they are overpriced, but I do prefer the slightly more MILFY women in heels and slightly tarty clothes.

Posts: 7Thursday
Hi all,
Have just arrived in Addis and am restless. Having reviewed the recent threads, I don't think I'm brave enough to try walking around to the various MPs.
I read places like Dome or Black Rose are good starting points, but I also like the sound of the cougars in the hotels. Does anyone have any pointers where the best place to pick up women is. Hilton, Sheraton, Radisson. Or is it much of muchness?
I'm only here for a couple of weeks so was going to focus on quality rather than quantity. The outdoor massage services seem appealing, but the fact you have no choice was quite off-putting.
Any advice gratefully received!

And there are at least two Hani MPs. Hani is a very common name in Ethiopia. The first one is found just behind the millennium hall close to purple MP.
The other one is found 'around' millennium hall. When you go down the EDNA mall roundabout, you would come across the Friendship International hotel. And you need to walk a few meters and then you would see a board showing you the direction which is on the right.
Grace is almost next to sapphire. Just walk a few meter down to ENDA mall. You would see grace on the left.

Posts: 156Locating and listing the Massage Parlours in Addis?
Hello,
I am staying at hotel nearby the embassy on Tanzania, on the airport side of Cameroon st. The only MS that I found real (Google map sent me nowhere looking for other ones) was Purple massage and Morocco, see below.
I've been reading the past 4 months of posts and found info on the following MS:
Purple massage and Morocco (in front of Milan Burger restaurant) - the only one I tried, massage 200 birr with full sex 500 birr, was the first time so not great since I did not know how it worked. Two ladies were nice, not the others.
Hani. Behind millennium hall, next to Friendship hotel. Is this location accurate?
Mack. Not far from Sapphire, but how to find?
Rozina. Near Abyssinia hotel, but which one? I see several in Google Map.
Pinks. Near Abyssinia Guest House.
Ethio Addis out-in door massage. Visible on Google map but the given location is not real, any tip on how to find?
Grace. How to find?
Sabon. How to find?
Namibia. How to find?
Cozy- - how to find?
Emy. How to find?
Would be cool to have a unique list with all the MS and their addresses, so would be also useful for the newbie (like me in Ethiopia) as it seems Google Map is not great in the streets of Addis.
Thanks!

Stick to a well cooked burger is Sishu's and you'll be fine. That could be a restaurant tip there for a hungry nomad.
When eating tradtional ask for your kitfo to be "lebleb" or slightly cooked. I've eaten all sorts of stuff over the last half dozen trips and never contracted anything serious. Except a micro brewery outside Edna Mall called Bole Microbrewery (not the Beer Garden) gave me the squitters for a couple of days. And last time badly washed traditional coffee cups did same thing in the "Intercontinental" in Kasanchi's, but for a lesser period.
Still if you actually want to see a different culture, go for it, as it is genuinely different, and genuinely untouched. Right now, I'd take advice about going outside Addis as a ferengi. I'm just not sure travel to Lalibela, Gondar etc is behaving normally. Some of the Habesher posters will be able to give you up to date advice.

I travel a lot but this is my first Sub Saharan trip and I look forward to a new experience hopefully without meeting any tapeworms.
Will post my experiences and who knows maybe first time lucky will apply.

Caustic, sulfurous food, the national delicacy is raw meat eaten with hands. In Africa. Watch out for that tapeworm!
Oh and water and power. And mobile and internet coverage. And the "state of emergency" and recent coup attempt.
On your own you will be approached by drunks, bums, pan handlers and the guys who know "some girls having a party for Haile Selassies birthday". Tip: don't go.
English speaking hookers in upmarket hotels will insist it is $300 dollars a pop. Sometimes people brag about getting them down to $80 or $100. Still about 4 or 5 times too much.
Outside of the good hotels some of the short time rooms need to be seen to be believed. Hygiene is a bottle of water and a small plastic bucket or empty paint can. Once you've done the deed, she'll throw some water over herself and then relieve herself in the bucket. (Okay, those aren't the $300 hookers, more the 500 bir street meat).
Most street girls won't take their clothes off by default, you'll have to negotiate (in Amharic) to ensure they get naked.
Most of the city is actually closed by around 9 pm as there is and't a lot of money to throw around in the evenings, except by the drunks in the red light areas apparently.
You'll see the big aid organisations in the three or four top hotels, shuttled round in UN white land cruisers, on their expense account salaries, but you may not see any other mongers, unless you bump into me or some of the other esteemed members of this forum. And we won't identify ourselves unless you know the secret handshake.
If you like a challenge, and are good with people and can talk your way out of a situation, not worried by being the only foreigner on the street, a keen negotiator, not looking for a single minute of GFE, but have an insatiable appetite for low end monger action with buxom african beauties (and the occasional moose) then maybe, just maybe its for you.
