Guest Reviews
- Getnet (8/5): - We enjoyed our short stay. The food was delicious and all staff members were helpful and very polite. We hope to come back soon.
- Soo (6/5): - They need to improve the food quality. Especially for international travelers. The focus was for daily local visitors and not extensive for overnight customers. Breakfast was poor, lunch was poor and same for dinner. The staff were amazing and very helpful and attentive. The property is very tranquil and beautiful. The food is the only bad experience.
- Natnael (10/5): - Great service and great experience. Highly recommend it.
- nardos (10/5): - Shower didn't have pressure and dinner where serve an hour late all the three day stay. Rather than that everything was good.
- Abiy (10/5): - this is my second time staying and i like everything about it. The resort got bigger and better. i appreciate the peaceful vibe. excellent customer service. i will be back soon.
- Mimi (6/5): - Even though we stayed for 3 days & 2 nights we were told by the check-in staff we can only use the water park for only one day & breakfast was included for just the 2nd day of our stay, so strange! The lock on the door was really bad & the room did nit have any night lamp! Bathroom had some type of smell even though it was clean. The spa shower had a terrible smell. Kuriftu report can do better, it used to be a good spot but now it’s just a sad place looking for some love & care.
- helen (10/5): - Over all there was nice scenery and we enjoy our time there and they have nice hospitality as the staff was very friendly
- Tsigereda (8/5): - The tv doesn’t work and we ask them to fix it multiple time but they just don’t want to do it. The WiFi is average, there’s noise which makes it hard to sleep. The staff needs to be responsive. But other than these little things it’s a place that people should go and check it out!
- Yonas abebe (10/5): - Beautiful
- Kevan (10/5): - What a beautiful place in which to relax. The rooms are beautiful. The food and service is just great!
- Kevan (10/5): - What a great resort. The staff is excellent. Accommodations are so comfortable. The food is just great.
- Kay (10/5): - We loved how it seemed to be nestled in the jungle! Beautiful flowers, walkways and wonderful food! The staff was amazing! And be sure to take them up on the massage and steam room!! Water park was fantastic! So much fun!!
- Abeyu (2/5): - We are not happy with the service! The first day they change our room, they give us a different room, and the second day they provide us with our room. The room is dirty, the wall is dirty, there is no hot shower or room service, and reception does not answer the phone. I think they are focusing on the money, not the service. I had a bad experience. @kuriftu
- Raj (2/5): - The attitude of the front office supervisor was ABSOLUTELY VERY RUDE. Some saff use abusive words not realizing that I understood the local language. The front officer manager even made a gesture on our back to other front office staff don't entertain us and just let us leave. My son notice the whole incident. Unfortunately he only brought it to my attention after we left. A seven star resort with ONE STAR SERVICE.
- Monica (8/5): - The rooms are like cabins with stone walls and cone shaped thatched roofs. Really nice, etnic style interior decor. The staff are really accommodating and professional. The food in the restaurant is delicious and overlooking the stunning looking lake where you can do kayaking for free. We got an out of this world massage in the spa, highly recommended. But it can be noisy at night, bring earplugs! The pool was empty, which was disappointing. And the waterpark beside the hotel was a letdown for my child. I'd go back to the hotel, though, and I'd recommend it but not as a base to go to the waterpark as this was not the best.
- Paul (10/5): - Great for family
- darren (6/5): - Quite nice traditional style resort and rooms but not kept and maintained too well, very tired in some areas, quite a few things seemed like they were rushed and not fiited well, curtain rails, electrics plumbing, i lost count of how many bare wires and electrical wires I saw in thd room and outside around the resort, wires joined with insulation tape , etc (dangerous to everyone staff and customers) drainage smell in bathrooms also, the resort is very quiet almost like a retreat which may suit many but fir me and us too quiet zero entertainment by night oh and the food alwsys cold, room service and restaurant.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Relaxation - The only problem was checking was meant to be 2pm but the room was not available until 3pm.
- Ambrish (8/5): - The property as such is excellent. But the staff needs more training for Customer service.... customer service doesn't match up to the level of the property Kuriftu has.
- Roberta (10/5): - This is a beautiful well maintained property
- ELisha (10/5): - Exactly as advertised! Nice and relaxing experience.
- Matewose (10/5): - This is my third visit to this place I find it very nice and convenient also Exclent customer service.
- Kevan (10/5): - A wonderful hotel with a great local flavor. The coffee ceremony in the lobby is excellent.
- Michael (4/5): - Billed as a lakeside resort and spa, the place is more of a raucous water park for kids with rooms. We booked a lakeside Felix which had no view and, charming, was not comfortable. There were huge floodlights and no blackout curtains making it hard to sleep. Despite a restaurant on the lake, it was a hike to the water park cafeteria for breakfast. I wouldn’t stay here again.
- Matewose (10/5): - This is my second time to this property, this place is keept expanding I love it the water Park, the whole area is safe and convenient great customer service I recommend this place for single couple and family.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Average accommodations - They didn’t have our reservation when we arrived, after hours they were able to confirm the reservation. We had booked a top lake view room but we only received a lake view room, not the top floor.
- Jerusalem (4/5): - I am very disappointed the night reception was very rude and disrespect. The light wasn’t working in the room and I went to reception around 10:00pm I asked the reception guy to speak night manager and they way speak to us very disrespectful please put professional person front office
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It's an amazing place to stay. You will not only be near to nature, but everything you see and get is more than standard.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Idyllic but poorly managed - The location of this resort is the best in the area, with idyllic scenery but the facility needs updating. It looks like simple maintenance doesn't exist in the operators thinking. For example, during my stay, I used two rooms; one with a good shower flow but poor drainage and another with poor shower flow but good drainage. The massage parole, particularly the massage table and covring are old and dirty. The towls I was provided with are old and has holes. The rooms curtains are in taters. Overall this place has a potential but crying for help.Last but not least, the staff are the best of my experience. They are polite and helpful. In every interaction I had with them, they went above and beyond to make my stay memorable.
- ADEBAYO (10/5): Awesome - Was peaceful
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I loved the layout. Didnt like the rooms dont have heaters.
- KOFFI FABRICE (10/5): - amazing
- Joseph (6/5): Beautiful nature set, nice rooms but poor service - very weak front desk service. Reception not reachable. Room booked not available.
- SaiDawi (8/5): - Nice place, good area and city, clean and lovely, internet was slow
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Nice massage and swimming pool and sauna. Main restaurant had very slow service, many of the staff didn't understand English and I could't get their attention. TV and intenet in my room didn't work. No one came to repair them, despite my request.
- DAVID (8/5): - cadre très agréable au bord du lac, dommage il faut demander la moustiquaire pour être tranquille la nuit
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The property is in the town of Bishftou. Its a cleaner city than addis and less congested. People are friendly including the staff at kirfut. I had the lake view which is beautiful and went kayaking immediately. The staff are helpful and accommodating. The room are a bit unkept but you can request housekeeping. They have pool, sauna, steam and massage. Also hair salon on location.
- Peter Samuel (10/5): Ethiopian gem - The room were located by the lake and gave me a lot of peace during the days I was staying. The food was good but the most enjoyable part was the spa treatments.
- Mickaël (10/5): Excellent souvenir - L'hotel est très bien situé au bord du lac. Les chambres sont propres et bien aménagées avec tout le comfort, petit bémol: l'insonorisation... le grand plus: la cheminée et la possibilité de faire allumer un feu tous les soirs. Le personnel est exceptionnel de gentillesse et le service est d'excellente qualité avec une bonne volonté remarquable. Les massages sont très très bien. Un séjour remarquable que nous recommandons.
- Getahun (2/5): - Nothing worked. I had an appointment scheduled for the steam room, but when I arrived on time, no one was there. And when someone finally came, it was out of order. The jacuzzi was not clean and it was cold and not working. The pool was ice cold and didnt have any heat. The cleaning crew took a full glass of wine and a double glass of Johnny Walker and dumped it. When we asked for it to be replaced, they made a huge ordeal bringing in 5 different people to speak with us over the course of 2 hours to get it resolved. Lastly, our phone in the room didnt work in our room and we repeatedly asked for it to be fixed. No one came after 2 days of stay. And finally the WIFI didn't work either.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice place to relax - A great way to escape the noise of Addis. Good selection of delicious food and the resort restaurant prices were not outrageously expensive. Room was large and very comfy. The fireplace is an interesting feature - wasn't expecting that. Great location for relaxing because there isn't anything else to do - just hang out and relax. Sure, the resort offers some activities if you feel the need to do something. Spa was very nice as well.
- Zachary (4/5): Great Grounds and View; Accommodations Lacking - The grounds were remarkable and the view astounding; however, the accommodations were lacking. I was awakened in the night to hear what I believe to be a rodent running around in our room. I heard claws on the tile floor, moving from one side of the room to the other. In the morning, I found rodent poop on the bed next to my daughter's pillow. It was a turn off. Granted, the rooms are set up for more open-air living if you choose, but this was a little too rustic for me. Additionally, the shower did not have hot water (I am unsure if that was the norm or if ours was just not working) and the drain did not drain well, so I was left standing in a pool of cold water at the end of my cold shower. We shared our concerns with the front desk and asked to cancel the remainder of our reservation. They offered to switch us to a different room, but at that point we just wanted to be done.
- Mike (10/5): - Our time at the Kuriftu Resort was very good. The room was spacious and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful.. Food was good. Location was excellent.
- Alsemu (10/5): - You will need at least 4 days to enjoy what this resort offers.love love the sound of the birds early morning,the massage,the campfire by your room,the food is delicious.The staff are professionals and polite.Love everything about this hotel.
- Timo (8/5): Heel prettig, fantastische activiteiten. - Een verademing na 8 dagen naar verschillende steden te zijn geweest. Voor Ethiopische gebruiken extreem goede zorg, ameniteiten en activiteiten. De cinema is een must om (gratis!) te boeken en kayakken erg veilig en leuk, ook voor kinderen. GRATIS voetmassage is een fantastische extra. Er zijn n paar minpunten maar de accomodatie is zo veel beter dan in de rest van het land dat je die vergeet. Als je even tot rust wilt komen zker hier naartoe gaan, maar de prijs is uiteraard stukken hoger dan elders, maar dat is begrijpelijk.
- Jeff (8/5): - The resort and rooms are beautiful from flowers, landscaping, lighting, wall pictures, bed and rest of furniture. It was all wonderfully done. The service was good, food was excellent and massage was good. The only issue with service was check in and check out process was a little slow. The biggest negative was the water pressure. The second night our water wasn't working at all and couldn't even flush toilets. The next morning water was working again but it was still tough to take shower because of low water pressure. I have no idea how they are going to add a water park there with water pressure issues. We went kayaking on lake and saw a lot of water bottles floating on water. As clean as they ground, they should do better about keeping water bottles from lake.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Frustrating and stressful experience - I have been wanting to stay at a Kuriftu Resort for the past 8 years. At first, my group of 15 people was very excited to stay here. But virtually every interaction with the resort staff was frustrating, to say the least. Our bags ended up all over the place, including left in the dirt on the side of the road. The housekeeping staff passed off an old mini bar charge to our bill, which resulted in a several hour dispute with the management. The food at the restaurant was average, but the service was terrible. I never waited less than 45 minutes for a bill, and always ended up simply standing at the register holding out money before anyone would actually produce anything. And the management was not accommodating with late check out (even for 1 room) or luggage assistance when requested. It took over 2 hours for me to get the final bill to check-out...and I had already prepaid all the rooms! It was a truly exasperating experience. Such unprofessional behavior. With literally hundreds of staff, you would think at least a few would have been trained adequately. Alas, I never met one. I would never stay here again and wouldn't recommend it to others either.
- Adrian (4/5): 1 star management, 5 star staff - Stayed for 2 days over Christmas, for a special getaway, special it wasn't in many ways for a 5 star resort. 1st day no WIFI, it actually took 3 hours from initial phone call to reception for them to come out, then try and tell me it was my iPhone, Room service could not understand a simple order of 4 beers, had to ring reception to order, pointless having a room service number, had to use my cigarette lighter to open the beers as no bottle opener in the room No mini bar in the room, was told by management that a fridge would be put in, this never happened Was asked if we wanted the fire outside to be lit, we said yes, eventually given an excuse that there was an electrical problem in the room above so could not light the fire We had a meal in the newer part of the resort and the restaurant manager offered to get the hotel car to take us back down to our resort, we were basically told it was out and they could walk, we walked and low and behold the car was parked outside our reception area, i checked the bonnet and it was cold, so definitely the engine had not been run at all Free Spa & Sauna with your stay, was told it was a private sauna, which we looked at, private???? right next to the swimming pool and anyone was walking in and out of it. 1 Positive - the management arranged for a meal for us which was very nice and we had a good Christmas night. Overall excuse after excuse from the 1 star management of the resort, the resort location, grounds staff are 5 star,
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The resort is lovely. Beautiful setting, but there was a problem with the reservation. They had no information about the reservations that I made on hotels.com. It took forever to resolve and in the end they only found one reservation and for less money than I paid. I had made two separate reservations because the first night we were two people and the second night it was just me. It was all very frustrating. In addition, our friends got a reservation at the last minute and paid significantly less money than we did for the same type of room....with a better view.
