Pros:

Séjour absolument merveilleux dans cet hôtel familial ! Tout est parfaitement tenu et on sent immédiatement la gentillesse et l’attention de la famille qui s’en occupe. Ils sont vraiment aux petits soins et rendent le séjour encore plus agréable.
Nous avons également fait une magnifique excursion sur le fleuve, un moment très dépaysant et très bien organisé.
Et que dire de la langouste… absolument délicieuse, parfaitement cuisinée ! Un vrai régal.
Un endroit plein de charme où l’on se sent vraiment bien. Nous recommandons cet hôtel les yeux fermés !

It was an unforgettable stay with good memories
Pros:

Breakfast was delicious although the spread was limited. But that’s not a concern as the portion sizes were good enough for a meal.

Cons:

Not enough parking space inside the property.

Pros:

Room was large and spacious, with a great view over the river however that is where the plus points end.

Cons:

Worse stay in Sri Lanka!

The bathroom, particularly the shower was filthy, it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned properly in a long time, as a lot of black mould in the corners. We weren’t comfortable using it.
Towels were worn, covered in stains.
Overall decor of room was dated, and we didnot feel relaxed and comfortable due to the poor level of cleanliness .
Fridge was dirty, and unhygienic, with old dried up muck left on the shelves. It needed a proper deep clean.

Staff were unfriendly, with a cold, nonchalant attitude.
None of the warm Sri Lankan welcome was in evidence, which we had experienced at every other accommodation we had stayed in during our 2 week stay in Sri Lanka.
The pool is in reception and is unusable for swimming as it has a wall in the middle of it.

Due to our schedule, we didn’t have time to check out and find
anything else, for one night.
However, we got up early, and checked out as soon as we could.
We couldn’t wait to get out, and stay somewhere else, this time at a hotel with a positive energy, and at least a few smiling faces!

How this hotel gets such high reviews only knows?!
We certainly felt duped!


There are so many great places to stay in Sri Lanka, so it was so disappointmenting that on this occasion, we had such a bad experience.

Affordable and great choice
Pros:

Great location and view, watching water sports from your balcony is great and satisfying

Cons:

Family room is spacious but located on third floor, no lift is there and the staff handles the luggage,
Yet it’s not easy to carry the kids after a long day trip to the 3rd floor. However, it’s repeatable in general

Pros:

החדר הגדול הוא מאוד גדול ומרווח. מרפסת מהממת נוף לנהר ומעל הברכה.
הצוות היה נהדר ממש וסידר לנו טיפול עיסוי בחדר בשעה מאוחרת בערב לבקשתנו. עשו הכל שיהיה לנו נוח וכיף. שירות הזעה לחוף בחינם ובקלות.. מקום מומלץ מאוד.

Сподобалося все!
Pros:

Сподобалося ВСЕ! Дуже приємний власник готелю, його жінка і команда. Нуван дуже смачно готує, може допомогти в будь якій ситуації, чи то ремонт телефона, чи то трансферт в аеропорт, чи то рибололя в океані. Почувалися як вдома, завдяки Нувану.
