Super Unterkunft, ruhig, tolle Lage, leckeres Frühstück

Extrem freundliches Personal, sehr ruhig, ein bisschen „Dschungel-Feeling“, super bequemes Bett, Frühstück war super

Das Zimmer ist sehr spartanisch eingerichtet, aber das ist Meckern auf hohem Niveau.

Absolute perfection!
Pros:

This hotel was truly amazing! The rooms are big and a big bathroom, the bed was super comfortable and everything was clean. The pool was delightful and they cleaned it every morning. The staff were so helpful and friendly and made us feel so welcomed from the very start. One of the best things about this hotel was the restaurant, the food was amazing. We have a Sri Lankan breakfast that was so delicious and we ate there for dinner also on one of the nights and I got grilled tuna and it’s was so good!! We also had cocktails there and they were very well made. We loved our stay there and were sad to leave!

Cons:

There is nothing I didn’t like about the property, everything was amazing!

Pros:

Os funcionários são super prestáveis e ajudaram- nos sempre que precisávamos - a marcar transfers, tuktuks e tours. O hotel em si é giro

Cons:

Não havia água quente, havia uma barata quando chegámos ao quarto e é difícil dormir pelo barulho (macacos em cima e ouve-se tudo dos quartos ao lado)

If I could, I would give this place more than 10/10!
Pros:

The hotel itself was wonderful. The rooms were very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. The swimming pool was beautiful, huge and spotlessly clean. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful. We also loved the animals around the property, especially the sweetest cat who kept coming over for cuddles! The location is great too, with plenty of interesting places and attractions nearby.

The hotel restaurant was another highlight. The food was absolutely delicious, with very reasonable prices and great value for money. We really enjoyed eating there during our stay.

Cons:

Honestly, nothing! We had no complaints and really enjoyed every part of our stay. The only thing was the monkeys making some noise early in the morning, but of course that’s completely beyond the hotel’s control.

Séjour incroyable en plein cœur de la nature et au calme.
Pros:

La location proche de beaucoup d’activités tout en restant dans la nature et calme. C’était vraiment apaisant. Le service est vraiment bien, le personnel est présent et à l’écoute. Il y a un accès à la piscine. Et il est possible de manger sur place donc vraiment bien aussi.

Relaxing accomodation close to Sigiria Rock.
Pros:

The staff were all friendly and attentive. 5 good sized rooms over looking the lovely pool. 10 min tuk tuk ride to Sigiria Rock and close enough to walk back afterwards. Food in the restaurant was pretty good. Lots of small restaurants up and down the road.
