Pros:

המסעדה מצויינת
החדר נחמד

Cons:

משש בבוקר התחילו עבודות סמוך לחדר שלנו
למשך שעה
שהעירו אותנו משינה
שאמרנו זאת למלון הם אמרו שהחדר הסמוך הפעיל מייבש שיער- ממש לא נכון.

המזרון קשיח ולא נעים

חוייבתי פעמיים על הארוחה בגלל תקלה

Pros:

Stayed here as to older male travellers to visit safari park, amazing hotels, stunning food and fantastic staff, having travelled Sri Lanka before this hotel has been one of the best

Cons:

Not a didn't like, but don't don't serve alcohol, which wasn't an issue for us, but something to mention.

Pros:

Lekker dichtbij het Wilpattu park. We hebben hier een duik genomen na de safari, en in het restaurant gegeten. Het hotel heeft een buffet, en het is niet de meest authentieke lokale keuken maar het smaakte ons zeker wel. Comfortabele kamer met een mooi terras met zicht op het meer.

Lovely hotel but was soulless the night we stayed because of no other guests. Staff organised keep safari for us at Wilp
Pros:

Very good quality hotel and rooms

Cons:

We were the only guests on the night we stayed. Restaurant staff looked after us but there was no wine or beer (no alcohol allowed). This is not normally a big issue but we wanted to celebrate an anniversary with some drinks - we would have liked to have known before, we could have brought our own.

A hidden gem
Pros:

Thimbiri Wewa is a wonderful little hotel near Wilpattu National Park. Great location and atmosphere. Staff are friendly. The food at the restaurant is tasty and provides a good mix of Sri Lankan and international options. The rooms are comfortable. The beds are firm (which suited us well). This is a good place to get away from it all.

Cons:

Signage is lacking - for example, there is nothing to tell guests that the restaurant is a separate building near the entrance to the property. Wifi is AWFUL - signal kept dropping and was extremely slow. Rooms are a little dated and the placement of light switches makes absolutely no sense. There were also a lot of ants.

Pros:

Omgeving

Cons:

Kamer vol met mieren en andere insecten, ook tussen de lakens etc. Oplossing vanuit hun was de kamer volspuiten met mieren gif waar we vervolgens verzocht werden in te slapen omdat er geen andere kamers vrij waren zogenaamd

Pros:

Very nice property, clean and spacious rooms. We organised our safari and pick ups with the hotel directly. Our safari driver didn’t speak English very well which was tricky but we still had a good experience. The staff was overly polite.

Really beautiful place to stay at the end of our travels 🥰 gorgeous pool and garden area to walk around. Helpful staff who arrange your breakfast and lunch if you go on an all day safari!
