IndiaBreak fast. The front desk upgraded our room which was amazing on their part. Very attentive staff
IndiaLovely location, rooms and hospitality. Would visit again
IndiaThe staff was warm and hospitable; they extended us the latest possible check-out. The food on the premises ranged from great to AMAZING (the Indian restaurant is absolutely top-notch, as was breakfast). We loved our room; it was comfortable and clean and had all the amenities we could ever dream of Sri Lanka. Highly Recommend.
United States of AmericaLoved the whole estate ... rooms a bit old in style but it is really clean and homey
United Arab EmiratesI want to do a special shout out to Chrish and Haneef, the 2 concierges I interacted with during my stay. They were extremely helpful with tours, coordinating some of our activities around the city and to Kandy; they went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Thank you so much guys! I much appreciated all your support, and friendliness. Keep up the great work!
CanadaService. Breakfast was good. Location is excellent.
United States of AmericaVery good property clean rooms fantastic F&B outlets & very very friendly staff.

Our gratitude to Ms Dinusha Rangwala. Thanks to Shashika Amarasinghe & team for their services
