Nothing we didn’t like. We will definitely be coming back in the future!

Beautiful setting with spectacular views across the lake (Tissa Weva) to 5 Great Stupas of Anuradhapura (Ruwanwelisaeya, Mirisawatiya, Jethavanaramaya, Abhayagiriya and Sandahiru Saeya). The room was spacious and clean with a balcony that took in the views across the lake. Food was delicious and the staff were kind and attentive. The pool was a great place to cool off and relax. All in all a wonderful place to spend a few days in Anuradhapura, within easy reach of the Sacred City.

When we were checking in, the lady at the reception told us to pay in full at that time itself. A temporary hold or refundable deposit would have been understandable. But this was a non-refundable full prepayment, with no explanation. When I pointed out that generally it is at the end that the bill should be settled, given that we may incur other expenses such as food costs that would be convenient to settle in one go, she made a face and showed very reluctant acquiescence. Since I did not want to start an argument, I told her to go ahead and charge the full amount as she wanted. Now, I do not know if this has become the practice of this venue for all guests, or if this is a prejudice against local guests, or perhaps I didn’t fit their profile of a ‘preferred’ guest. Whichever one it was, I felt that the interaction was rather inhospitable, which is ironic, given that it is from an entity which ostensibly is part of ... the hospitality industry.

This is the second time we have stayed here. The rooms are clean and the relevant amenities are provided. We requested an iron and an ironing board, which were also given. The food tasted good. The à la carte portions were adequate (See picture). There was a good variety of choices in the breakfast buffet. The view across the lake was excellent (See picture). The waiting staff, security, and bell boys were quite friendly and helpful.

The shower was a bit difficult to figure-out. I suggest the a sicker with an arrow be pasted on the hidden latch so that the guest know what to pull. I had to come out of the shower and call the reception for help.

Breakfast was amazing! Had so many choices and variety. Food tasted great. The stunning view from the hotel lobby, dinning and my room was definitely the best part of this hotel for me.

AC unit had the default set to reset every 30min to 28 degrees. So was hotter in room than outside. As you can access the admin menu on the ac I found the default setting and removed the 30min reset so the room would stay at the temperature we wanted but that was after a very hot uncomfortable night on first night. Food was a bit average and not up to the standard the rest of the hotel offered.

Lovely view over the “Tank” Reservoir to the illuminated Stupa’s of the 3 monasteries.

Felt a little remote. Quite far away for any town centre. The restaurant was a bit hit or miss. On the 1st night the buffet was great, but on 2nd night there was a very uninspiring set menu and the ala carte menu had most things unavailable.

Big rooms with nice view of the lake and stupas.

The buffet spreads need to be better and have more variety.

The moment you enter the hotel you are blown away by the view of the lake. The lake view rooms are really nice with balconies where one can sit and enjoy the gorgeous views. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the hotel staff is very friendly and helpful.

The coffee. There are mosquitos around but the bed does have a net.

This hotel is set in beautiful surroundings with magnificent views overlooking a lake where there is an abundance of wild birdlife. The area is tranquil and away from main roads, yet within easy reach of attractions such as temples. The room and facilities were very comfortable. There is a nice pool. We received a refreshing welcome drink. The restaurant overlooking the lagoon is lovely (romantic setting). Food for dinner and breakfast was buffet service and there was an array of options, especially for Sri-Lankan style food. The dinner dishes were particularly tasty.

Breakfast Buffet was lovely with a good variety. Views over the lake were beautiful. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable.

It was very expensive compared to similar places we stayed at in Sri Lanka. Pool location was bizarre. It was half inside the restaurant which made you feel very exposed. Pool was in the shade at the logical time you wanted to use it and hence quite cold.

Nice big room with nice big balcony with loungers. Comfortable beds. Lovely staff. Beautiful view.
