Pros:

es gibt einen Kühlschrank, Moskitonetz auf Anfrage, Balkon mit schöner Sicht, sehr gutes Essen zu fairem Preis,
(jedoch unflexibel, wenn es um eine andere Zusammensetzung des Essens geht-also nur wie auf der Karte)
Alle Wünsche zum Zimmer wurden schnell erfüllt.
Poolliegen

Cons:

alles im grünen Bereich :-)

Sopra ogni nostra aspettativa
Pros:

La struttura è molto più bella di come appare in Booking, ha superato tutte le nostre aspettative.
A pochi minuti di macchina da Anuradhapura e da Mihintale, questo hotel si trova in un oasi di pace naturale.
Struttura nuova e con ottima pulizia, lo staff ci ha accolti in maniera eccezionale, sempre pronti e disponibili.
Il cibo è veramente ottimo e il servizio impeccabile.
È stato difficile andarmene.

Super verblijf in Mihintale
Pros:

De accommodatie ligt heerlijk rustig net buiten Mihintale. Met prachtig uitzicht over de rijstvelden en dichtbij de historische bezienswaardigheden. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk, het eten ook super lekker. We hebben via het hotel een scooter gehuurd en dat is zeker aanrader omdat je wat afgelegen ligt. Lekker zwembad om af te koelen. Kortom we komen hier volgende keer weer terug.

Cons:

Niks

Pros:

Nous avons commencé notre tour du Sri Lanka par L'Eco Hotel, est il est notre endroit favori, tout était réuni, la chambre spacieuse est très propre, la nourriture (petit déjeuner, et dîner) très bon et copieux! La piscine est un vrai havre de paix, à l'image d'ailleurs de tout l'établissement. Le personnel est discret mais toujours au petit soin! Le rapport qualité/prix est sans nul doute le meilleur de tous ce que nous avons connu au Sri Lanka!
Notre chauffeur a pu être logé sur place!
Et notre hôte d'une simplicité et d'une gentillesse sans doute la plus sincère que nous ayons connue durant notre séjour.
Idéalement situé pour les site d' Anuradhapura et de Mihintale.

Comfortable 1 night stay to see the area’s highlights
Pros:

Such a beautiful green place close to Mihintale with wonderful staff and a great pool area. We received a room upgrade upon arrival and it must have been the biggest room we stayed in in Sri Lanka. Through the hotel we arranged a tuk tuk driver who took us to the highlights of Anuradhapura and Mihintale, which saved us time (and money for unnecessary tickets). Food was decent and well priced.

Cons:

A few improvements can be made to make it even more comfortable, such as fresh coffee at breakfast (instead of instant) and a check of the room fixtures (door, toilet, tap). Otherwise our stay was perfectly fine.

Pros:

Ten hotel to naprawdę świetne miejsce. Od samego początku czuć było pozytywną atmosferę – ludzie uśmiechnięci, pomocni, zawsze gotowi doradzić czy podać rękę. Na powitanie dostaliśmy sok ananasowy, serio, najlepszy jaki piłem w życiu. A na pożegnanie figurka Buddy – taki miły gest, że od razu robi się cieplej na sercu.

Jedzenie? Bardzo dobre, bez przesady, ale zawsze smaczne i świeże. Basen zrobił robotę – idealny relaks po całym dniu. Do tego lokalizacja blisko natury, więc można było odetchnąć i poczuć się trochę jak w innym świecie.

Technicznie były jakieś drobne usterki, ale kompletnie bez znaczenia. Klimatyzacja działała aż za dobrze, gniazdka były pod ręką, więc zero problemów z ładowaniem sprzętu.

Podsumowując – hotel ma duszę. Super atmosfera, świetni ludzie, dobre jedzenie, basen, natura i te małe detale, które sprawiają, że czujesz się wyjątkowo. Zdecydowanie miejsce, do którego chce się wrócic.
To wszystko w bardzo dobrej cenie.

Podsumowując jakoś do ceny 10/10

Short stop between Mihintale and Anuradhapura
Pros:

The property had peacocks and birds in the garden. Staff all very friendly.
Room was large but I had booked a triple room (though solo), since it was the only option available - therefore, I cannot speak for what the other rooms are like.
Room had hairdryer, kettle, a/c and fan options.

Cons:

Even though it was a 4-night stay, my room was not cleaned once. There were ants coming out of the socket (on my first evening, I tried to use the kettle but after picking it up, realised it was full of ants - they gave me another kettle the following day, after I pointed this out.).
My room was above the dining area, so it was noisy. The WiFi did not work in the room (nor did my e-sim get connectivity most of the time).
There are no restaurants nearby so you have to eat at the hotel- for vegetarians, there were hardly any options!
