We were upgraded to a room with a jacuzzi which was very snazzy and nice! The room was great and the view of Sigirya Rock and the lake was absolutely incredible! The pool was great, and the morning buffet was an amazing spread and yummy! The cleaning staff in particular were really helpful and friendly. The monkeys jumping onto the balcony were a very special memory! It was like being in the middle of nature...but in luxury!!!!! A really unique hotel experience and I hope I can stay again someday!
