Stayed here for 1 night but it was absolutely delightful! The staff was very hospitable, the amenities were great, loation of the hotel relative to the scenic view was fantastic, breakfast was amazing (with so much variety), room was decent sized and clean too. Got upgraded so appreciate that very much. Gave us nothing to complain about. 10/10 and would highly recommend.

The staff were very welcoming and extremely helpful. The breakfast buffet was very delicious. I personally loved the vegetable samosas served on Thursday morning. I also love how they have different variety of Sri Lankan curries in the morning. Also their fruits were ripe and very sweet. The only thing I didn’t like was the smell of the room when we arrived and they moved us to another room. The pool was very nice to swim in and their burger was tasty. Their laundry service is quick and very tidy.

The pictures in the web looks really good. Lobby area and dinning areas are good. Very old hotel rooms are not good. Needs a lot of upgrades

One of the most impressive entrances I’ve seen and a very pleasant check in. Pool area very good, with a shaded area. Pool bar great for food and drinks with cracking staff. My single room was good, a few maintenance issues compared to the rest of the hotel. About a 20 minute walk down a steepish hill and a typically busy road, with shops and eateries, to the lake. Highly recommended.
