Pros:

Fantastisk sted med dejlig atmosfære og smilende personale. Der blev virkelig kræset for omgivelserne og svømmepoolen var helt ideel efter en lang dag i nationalpark eller anden udflugt.

Wonderful hotel with even better staff. Perfect hotel for a visit to the safari.
Pros:

The staff at the hotel were absolutely wonderful. They made sure my partner and I had all we needed. Perfect location for going on a safari. The staff ensured we had a breakfast ready to take with us in the morning. We also had a lovely swim in their gorgeous pool. We would definitely stay again.

Cons:

Nothing - it was perfect.

Pros:

The hotel was clean and well maintained despite it looking a little aged. The pool was big and we enjoyed swimming in it. The surroundings had many trees and plants which were well groomed - and brought a serene environment to the hotel.

Cons:

We had quite a struggle trying to contact the hotel prior to our arrival as we needed to make some changes. However, the staff who attended the call could not understand the situation, and were unable to assist us. We called Booking.com for assistance - but due to certain policies, were also unable to assist us. Ideally, the staff in charge should have a thorough understanding of the Booking.com process, including any necessary workarounds, to ensure smooth operations. This costed us a lot of our time attending and contacting Booking.com - which was unpleasant. Other than that, the stay was okay.

Bon rapport qualité prix et bonne localisation pour le safari de Yala
Pros:

Le rapport qualité prix est imbattable. Nous y avons logé 2 nuits dans le cadre du safari de Yala et il y a tout ce qu’il faut dont le petit déjeuner à emporter tôt le matin et la piscine quand on rentre. Tout était très correct et le personnel très gentil.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The manager was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made check-in a breeze. The beds were super comfy — I slept like a baby every night. The pool was absolutely awesome, clean and perfect for relaxing. And you really can’t beat the location — it’s right in the heart of everything. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
