Good location with pool
Pros:

We had an excellent stay at this resort. We stayed in a family bunk room and everything was as expected. The staff are very friendly and will help arrange whatever you need. We enjoyed the pool and the restaurant. It was close to the main sites of the area either on foot or by tuk-tuk.

Pros:

De mensen zijn ontzettend aardig en gastvrij. In het restaurant kun je echt heerlijk eten. De locatie is ook perfect: lekker dichtbij Lion Rock en Pidurangala Rock. Ze kunnen allerlei excursies voor je regelen en als kers op de taart hebben we hier ook nog het populaire spel Carrom leren spelen!

Cons:

De olifantensafari die we via de accommodatie hadden geboekt viel helaas tegen. Het was er veel te druk met jeeps.

We would happily come back! 🫶🏻🇱🇰✈️🧳

Famille très gentille , à 10min à pied du rocher du lion (chemin de jour) et à côté d un joli temple.
Petite piscine agréable. Chambre avec petit balcon pratique
Possibilité de prendre les excursions , cours de cuisine et taxi avec l hôtel

Cons:

Une partie du jardin a des petits travaux (construction d autres chambres Hut dans le jardin)

Pas le meilleur qualité prix
Pros:

Localisation proche d’une des entrées du Lion’s rock et un peu à l’écart
Personnel à l’accueil agréable

Cons:

Aucune insonorisation des chambres, vous entendez absolument tout de vos voisins.
Salle de restaurant pas très chaleureuse
J’aurai aimé que le personnel de l’hôtel nous prévienne qu’il y avait des éléphants sauvages dès la nuit tombée aux alentours et qu’il était dangereux de faire des trajets à pieds (pour aller à un autre restaurant par exemple)
Des travaux en cours (vous pouvez avoir du bruit autour de la piscine)

Great start to our Sri Lanka holiday!
Pros:

We had a great stay at Green Hut Nature Resort. The staff were all very lovely, great varied breakfast each day, awesome pool and view, and we enjoyed a great curry set dinner at the restaurant one evening too.

I think past reviewers' comments about construction noise are inflated - noise is simply part of further developing this lovely place and we had no trouble with noise on the 2 days we spent by the pool. The new accommodations will be wonderful.

Thank you for a lovely stay

Cons:

I do agree with another reviewer however that there is a smell in the room bathroom (perhaps sewerage related) that should be investigated so that guests have a more pleasant stay. We became 'used to it' by the end of our stay however, haven't experienced it elsewhere on our travels in Sri Lanka so hope that the hotel can rectify it for future guests.
