Pros:

The hotel manager was very welcoming, friendly, and helpful, and kindly offered us a late check-out, which was much appreciated. The staff are quite new, so there are still a few areas that need improvement. There was no telephone in the room, and the bathroom amenities were limited.

Overall, the hotel has a good location and is convenient for visiting nearby attractions and locations. With some improvements to the room facilities and amenities, the overall guest experience could be even better.

Value for money
Pros:

The staff is very friendly and exceptionally helpful. They packed us our snacks for the safari, and the Picnic pack was good and were ready on time. We booked 2 rooms. Both rooms are good. There were tea/coffee making facility in the room. Food was tasty and plentiful.

Cons:

The toilet didn't have a bath mat, and the risk of falling is high. The restaurant ambiance is not so great, and that could be improved. The main lobby needs some upgrades and AC.

Gem in Kataragama
Pros:

The receptionist I believe her name was Tharushi. Her smile and welcoming aura is what made our stay off to a good start. She even helped us with booking a Yala safari and also helped us with the early breakfast

Cons:

The restaurant is understaffed which meat an Al a carte order could take up to 2 hours unless pre ordered.
