I loved the bathroom! It's really big and has hot water
Peter, the owner, was helpful
It's quite comfy
I stayed three nights and slept well in all three, thanks (in part) for the mosquito nets.

Bahir Dar is among Ethiopia's Culturally, Historically, and naturally endowed cities. especially finding the source of the Nile at the lake of tana has a pleasant feeling of being an explorer meanwhile the monasteries that lie on the island of Tana will tell you a lot about the ancient civilization of Ethiopia
The people are hospitable and I have visited the blue Nile water fall

Bahar Dar is one of the Ethiopian cities I love.
Bahar Dar is one of the Ethiopian cities I love. Lake Tana and the river Abay gives the city additional beauty. The city is clean and the people are very friendly . I will definitely go to Bahar Dar if possible more than once if not at least once a year is a must.
Love Bahar Dar very much

Bahir Dar makes for a great introduction to Ethiopia, Addis has the population but not the heart. Set on the lake, you’ll soon get used to the mix of cars, trucks, bajaj, bycycles and horse and carts as you weave your way through this city. Obviously the lake is the main draw, as well as the falls, but the monestaries, both on and on the lake and in the town are also worthy of attention in this rich and ancient cultural city.

Bahir Dar is one of the most beautiful cities in Eastern Africa due to it's layout with broad avenues and relatively clean streets. The city itself offers many good restaurants and in the parks and along the lake shore you can sit down for a quiet drink and enjoy the view and the atmosphere. The main tourist attractions are the Blue Nile Falls, and the monasteries of Lake Tana. If you go to Zeghie (with the biggest monastery) remember to take a local guide and look at the local "museum", which is just a couple of very old farmhouses in excellent condition. And still lived in! The big religious festivals, particularly Timket (Epiphany) provide large spectacles and give the city a very festive atmosphere.

It is a large African town, which I enjoyed exploring.
It is a large African town, which I enjoyed exploring. Walking into town from the Blue Nile bridge is vibey if one enjoys sitting down at one of the many coffee stalls on the pavement, looking at and smelling the spices that are being dried on mats on the ground - and people-watching in general. The place feels very safe. Hustlers can be politely discouraged, though I would organise a boat trip via the hotel reception. There are a couple of good fish restaurants, of which I would single out Lakeshore and Desset Resort (the latter being mostly a daytime place, featuring a beer garden). I would definitely recommend spending money on a boat trip to some of the island monasteries and the Blue Nile outlet. It is an essential part of enjoying a stay in Bahir Dar. I cannot comment on the Nile Falls since we visited during dry season.
