Great hotel, lovely room and good food. This was the best value for money hotel we stayed at of the 10 we used in Sri Lanka. It was quiet, looked after and welcoming. With views of the rice fields and even eagles flying over them this place was perfect. You can cycle to the ruins in about 10 minutes and yet avoid the hustle of some other areas. Very recommended. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 24, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Good place to stay. Management is very friendly.

Stedet bærer lidt præg af manglende gæster - personalet er langsomme og der er en lidt spøgelsesagtig stemning i restauranten. Morgenmaden er ikke fantastisk, men ok. ##### Cecilie ### 8/10 Good #### NEIL Sep 11, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Ruins chaaya could do better Hi this hotel is huge but we were the only people in the restaurant why because they had no guests possibly because of the time of year. We did have an issue with serving our room butt he operations manager soon sorted out the problem. It was evident that the staff needed hospitality training but they did their best. This could be a very could hotel but they need to concentrate on their staff the hotel itself is minders and comfortable. ##### NEIL Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniela Jun 27, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Daniela Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard, east Sussex Apr 14, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Impressive reception Very impressive entrance & reception area & very attentive staff.
