Lovely hotel in a stunning location
Pros:

Hotel Lake Park is a lovely hotel in an absolutely amazing location, you are a stone’s throw from the lake, and it is like staying in the middle of a national park with all the wildlife around (egrets, pelicans, mongoose!). The food is good and the staff are very kind and helpful.

All in all, we had a wonderful stay at Hotel Lake Park and would absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking to explore Polonnaruwa, or just somewhere to relax and enjoy Sri Lankan nature!

Cons:

The hotel does need a bit of TLC, for example, there is an unfinished first floor above the rooms and the AC unit was held together by a plaster. The beds also need mosquito nets (that said, we did not get bitten in the rooms, despite being next to water). However, everything is clean, they have nice bathrooms and kettles + tea/coffee in the rooms

Pros:

The hotel is beautifully located by the lake and large trees provide shade.

Cons:

There are many crows in the trees and bird droppings are all over the seats and tables. You have to be careful not to get hit by bird droppings. The water in the pool is cloudy so we did not use it.

Pros:

La vista del lago es increíble y puedes ver varios animales pasear por el jardín durante el día. La habitación es amplia y muy cómoda, al igual que el baño. El chico de la recepción nos ayudó con todo lo que necesitábamos y más.

Cons:

Había algunos insectos en la habitación y el agua de la ducha no siempre calentaba. El desayuno es un poco desorganizado, se demoran mucho en traer cada cosa.

Pros:

I am a nature lover, so having a room just in front of the lake was amazing. I woke up early and nicely with the sounds of birds and sunrise.

Cons:

The room itself seemed old as I saw a lot of cracks on the wooden floor, showing long history of the building. The food was nice with tourist standard price.

Upea ja kaunis miljöö
Pros:

Ympäristö oli upea. Sieltä näki sekä auringonlaskun että -nousun. Uima-allas oli kiva ja järvimaisema kruunasi kaiken. Henkilökunta oli varsin ystävällistä.

Cons:

Huoneen neljä ilmastointilaite oli varsin kovaääninen.
