Kuriftu Resort & Spa Lake Tana

Another amazing time at Kuriftu. Me and my daughter love it here. Always a fantastic service and experience with their Professional, polite staff, efficient service, beautiful pool and seating areas. My favourite place in Bahir Dar still Even better with there fast WiFi enabling me to work by the pool

Very nice people, good food and comfortable rooms. A very solid building reminds me of a castle. Nice balcony. Just wish the A/C units didn't go to E4 all the time. The restaurant food was really good. The view out over Lake Tana is spectacular.

Best hotel in Bahri Dar. Large, clean rooms, excellent restaurant and friendly, thorough staff. Spent three days here. Could have easily spent a week. Spa was wonderful. There masseuses knew their craft. Askal was a standout in the restaurant.

I'm always delighted to visit Kuriftu, its a place where i love to spend my weekends when I'm in Bahir Dar, its beautiful calm and in the heart of the city, the traditional Ethiopian cosine is tasty and just a little bit spicy, but my favorite thing to do while i visit is to watch the sunset over the lake, the staff is so polite and friendly, I'd definitely recommend visiting and staying since its where i spend most of my time in Bahir Dar

I had studied my higher education in there, so it has been my first go to and relax place, I spend most of by the lake view. It has an incredible view and the staff in general are so well educated in the hospitality service, way better than the staff's at Debrezeyit.

Luxury to a higher level. Friendliest staff in Ethiopia. View of the lake from a balcony with second bed and a fireplace!! Food for every taste. Swimming pool was gorgeous. Massages. And so much more. Arrange a short boat ride to see hippos on the Nile and exotic birds.

The location of this wonderful resort is absolutely breathtaking. Waking up in the morning and watching the sun rise over the horizon and the light dancing on the soft waves of Lake Tana is the perfect way to start your mornings, whether on vacation or just a weekend getaway. The breakfast buffet is varied and tasty and the food is quite lovely in general. The pool is clear and beautiful, very refreshing. Overall, one of my favorite places to go when visiting Bahir Dar. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful setting with an ample access to Lake Tana and it is also an ideal place if you want to take a boat ride to one of the island monasteries. Great meal & variety of options will be provided with a great professionals witj a smiling, friendly, respectful, attentive and hospitable waiting staffs. Therefore, from the time you go in till you go out of this place, You will be treated like a real king. Especially the F & B manager Mrs. Askal - unbelievable - she is one if a kind service industry asset. Thank you so much for making our (particularly my clients) stay as comfortable as it could ever get. Will definitely come back again.

Im giving this hotel 1 star. It went from bad to really bad. The staff were very courteous and I have to say they were very nice. Also, the food was decent. However, the hotel had plenty of mosquitoes inside and outside the room. The mosquito net in the room had plenty of gaps and the room itself had plenty of gaps at the doors and windows. The hallway leading to the bathroom had bits of mud that did not come from our shoes and the a/c was so noisy it kept us up all night. The main problem was the tour. I paid $130 for a lake tour of the monasteries and the nile but only got to see the monasteries as the boat was driven so slow that it took 1.5 hours just to go to and from the monasteries. The problem is i told the boatman that we needed to be back by 12pm as we will need to leave for a long drive and he said no problem, we will get back by that time. He reassured us that we will make it in time. We got back at almost 1230pm, 30 minutes late. And after i told him to cut the trip short and head back to the hotel. He wanted to take us to other places despite being told we needed to get back by 12. Clearly poor time management. If we listened to him, we would not have made it to our next destination in time. I complained to the front desk and all they said was sorry and did not even offer a partial refund as the monastery tour was only $90. Also, our luggage did not arrive with our flight and was left at the airport. We were waiting all night but they didnt inform us that the luggage wasnt going to arrive that night. It was only when i went to the front desk to ask for an update that they informed us that the luggage would not be there until the next day. We were waiting for nothing. The hotel and surrounding area is interesting and has so much potential but is poorly managed.
