the location is amazing right on the river with a perfectly placed pool to watch the main attention in Pinnawala which is the elephants bathing the staff are really nice and kind and the restaurant’s food was good ! generous breakfast and dinner

I loved the view! The view from the balcony, restaurant, and pool area were all amazing. During the day you could see lots of elephants in the river and at night you could see thousands of bats flying above the river. Also, the staff at the bar/restaurant was very helpful.

Everything was Excellent. This hotel is consists with a excellent location and the staff was very friendly . And the best thing is there is Pool with a River and Elephant veiw. And we can see elephant's are bathing in the river. And I saw that some people have Witten that the service was not good and I don't know why those people have Witten a comment like that because my room was very clean the service was extremely nice. I recommend this Hotel as a good place to visit.
