Very nice stay
Pros:

Overall, it’s a very pleasant hotel. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff is polite and ready to help with any request. Our neighbors were being noisy, but after a call to the reception, the issue was promptly resolved and the noise stopped.

There is a beautiful view from the window, a decent breakfast, and a swimming pool. The hotel is located not far from Ambuluwawa Tower, in a quiet and peaceful area.

Cons:

None

Bello ma…
Pros:

L’hotel è veramente bello le camere sono molto pulite e spaziose dotate di quasi tutto i comfort. Anche la camera capanna molto bella e comoda immersa in una piantagione di tè

Cons:

La notte che abbiamo passato nella struttura all’ultimo piano dell’hotel era stata organizzata una festa con musica alta che è andata avanti a tarda ora e nessuno dello staff ha gestito la situazione. Penso che certe cose in hotel del genere siano evitabili o almeno vadano gestite diversamente

Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! Dammika and the staff were incredibly kind and always ready to help with anything I needed, which made me feel very welcome. The food was absolutely delicious, each meal was a treat. On top of that, the view from my room was stunning, adding an extra touch of relaxation to my stay. Highly recommended!

The view 10/10
Pros:

The view from the room, restaurant, pool is just stunning. Room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I like the fact that you can use the pool anytime you want (night or early morning) so you can avoid any crowd.

Cons:

The wall/windows soundproofing was very poor and from 6am I could hear everything happening in the corridor and neighbor room.
