There are no words to describe how amazing Harding Hotel is!
Pros:

Every detail is thought through to make your stay special and comfortable.
The hotel is so beautiful, located right in the center of Ahangama by the best restaurants/bars/shops. There is a beautiful and secluded beach right in front, and it is just a 2 min walk to the bigger beach with all the restaurants.
The breakfast is so delicious, I don’t understand the negative comments. It has everything you can possibly need.
The rooms are so clean and beautiful, and the outdoor shower/bath were exceptional and really added to our experience.
Apart from all of this - the absolute best part of the hotel is the staff! They were the kindest staff EVER, which made this the best hotel experience of our lives. Shout out to the exceptional receptionist Kaveesha, that was so attentive even before we arrived, and made sure we were comfortable and happy all the time. The security guard is one of the nicest, sweetest people I have ever met, even though we barely spoke the same language. He has such a calming and healing energy that was truly special. The staff serving the breakfast was also incredible, kind and even brought us towels when we were rinsing by the pool.
The room cleaning services were spectacular - twice a day. Making sure the room was fresh, and gracing us with the cutest towel art. We appreciated the turn down service every day and really added to the luxurious experience.
You will not regret by choosing Harding Hotel, it is by far the best option in all the South Coast. Cannot wait to be back!

Nice beach side hotel but not a 5 star experience for me
Pros:

Hotel is centered well at Ahangama center. However the beach road is not so safe for walking. Staff were really friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

Breakfast was quite average and simple. Coffee was worst I had in Sri Lanka. I had much better breakfast at other hotels in Sri Lanka.

Bathroom had lot of ants, like in many other hotels in Sri Lanka. Still I didn’t expect to see those in 5 star hotel.

Good value but maybe avoid the adjacent building!
Pros:

Good location
Good attention to detail

Cons:

We were in the adjacent building and this had many ants and bugs and lizards in the room. The staff tried to spray something but it didn’t help.

Unbeschreiblich toll
Pros:

Dieses Hotel war einfach wunderbar! Der Style ist industriell gehalten und ist sehr ästhetisch. Das Konzept zieht sich wie ein roter Faden durch und ist total stimmig.
Das Personal ist extrem freundlich und fragt jeden Tag, wie die Nacht war und wie es einem geht.
Die Zimmerreinigung ist super! Alles ist top gereinigt und sauber.
Das Zimmer selbst ist einfach klasse 👍🏼 total sauber, schön und modern.
Die Dusche und das Bad selbst ist richtig schön.
Die Betten sind riesig und bequem.
Abends wird das Zimmer sogar „bettfertig“ gemacht. Rollo runter, Bettdecke aufgeschlagen usw.
Das Frühstück ist ne 12/10! Super lecker und viel Auswahl auf der Karte. Ich hatte in 5 Tagen jeden Tag ein anderes Frühstück und alle waren top.
Der Pool ist super angenehm und die liegen so bequem.
Wir können das Hotel zu 100% weiter empfehlen und würden es immer wieder buchen!

Beautiful view from the bath tub on the balcony. Breakfast and dinner were exceptionally good
Pros:

Great location for the beach and shops.
Restaurant is excellent and the staff are knowledgeable, hired us a Tuk Tuk and gave us great beach recommendations.

Cons:

Our first room from the ground floor doesn’t really have a sea view but the team moved us immediately and the 1st floor was perfect
