Great hotel, great value.
Great hotel, lovely room and good food.
This was the best value for money hotel we stayed at of the 10 we used in Sri Lanka. It was quiet, looked after and welcoming. With views of the rice fields and even eagles flying over them this place was perfect. You can cycle to the ruins in about 10 minutes and yet avoid the hustle of some other areas.
Very recommended.

Ruins chaaya could do better
Hi this hotel is huge but we were the only people in the restaurant why because they had no guests possibly because of the time of year. We did have an issue with serving our room butt he operations manager soon sorted out the problem. It was evident that the staff needed hospitality training but they did their best. This could be a very could hotel but they need to concentrate on their staff the hotel itself is minders and comfortable.

Impressive reception
Very impressive entrance & reception area & very attentive staff. Food good but restaurant very large & more suited to large functions such as weddings.
Room excellent but no other facilities not even a bar.however very good for overnight stay.
Nice place to stay. They only had one bottle of redwine and no beer. But it was no problem to bring our own wine and beer and drink it in the restaurant.
The food is freshly made and very tasty.
Reception is smiling and helpfull. Good clean rooms - really wothe a visit.

Нормально для одной ночи
Отель как отель, ничего особенного. В ванной на полу грязновато, кровать чистая, кондиционер работает. Для остановки на ночь в ходе поездки по местам культурного интереса острова сойдёт. Учитывая, что мы были единственными постояльцами отеля, вышедшими на завтрак, видимо, есть места и поинтереснее

Fint til en enkelt nat
Pænt og rent hotel, rigtig flot værelse og fin udsigt. Stedet bærer lidt præg af manglende gæster - personalet er langsomme og der er en lidt spøgelsesagtig stemning i restauranten. Morgenmaden er ikke fantastisk, men ok.
