This hotel cancelled my reservation without notifying me before my stay. They overbooked the entire hotel and had no more rooms left even after having a booking confirmation number and payment. They also wouldn't refund me even after I wasn't able to stay there. It took 3 weeks to get my money back after many calls with them. I wouldn't ever stay here. There is however a bungalow house nearby that I'd absolutely recommend instead of this hotel. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Weerawila Rajawarna Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Weerawila-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Weerawila-Rajawarna-Resort.h23701470.Hotel-Information) > > [Sinharaja Forest Sanctuary Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/KL-Sinharaja.h17894705.Hotel-Information) > > [Ladja Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ambalanthota-Hotels-Ladja-Beach-Resort.h42476991.Hotel-Information) > > [Saninro Hotel Ragama](https://www.expedia.ca/Ragama-Hotels-Saninro-Hotel-Ragama.h16792041.Hotel-Information) > > [Eva Lanka Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Morakatiyara-Hotels-Eva-Lanka-Hotel.h10347973.Hotel-Information) > > [Cosy Hotel & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-Cosy-Hotel-Restaurant.h13335936.Hotel-Information) > > [Dream Cliff Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hildummulla-Hotels-Dream-Cliff-Mountain-Resort.h42548366.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Panorama Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Beruwala-Hotels-Beruwala-Panorama-Hotel.h20581040.Hotel-Information) > > [Beyond The Sea By Ceylonese ](https://www.expedia.ca/Madampagama-Hotels-Beyond-The-Sea-By-Ceylonese.h102023903.Hotel-Information) > > [The River House by Asia Leisure](https://www.expedia.ca/Balapitiya-Hotels-The-River-House-By-Asia-Leisure.h10984031.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Paradise Cabanas & Villas Beach Resort Tangalle](https://www.expedia.ca/Tangalle-Hotels-Palm-Paradise-Cabanas-Villas-Beach-Resort-Tangalle.h7564363.Hotel-Information) > > [Palmstone Retreat - Kithulgala](https://www.expedia.ca/Kithulgala-Hotels-Palmstone-Retreat-Kithulgala.h12629851.Hotel-Information) > > [Flower Garden Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Weerawila-Hotels-Flower-Garden-Resort.h21620545.Hotel-Information) > > [Sinharaja Forest Gate](https://www.expedia.ca/SINHARAJA-FOREST-GATE.h27731206.Hotel-Information) > > [La Casa Udawalawe](https://www.expedia.ca/Embilipitiya-Hotels-La-Casa-Udawalawe.h39068049.Hotel-Information) > > [Rangiri Dambulla Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Dambulla-Hotels-Rangiri-Dambulla-Resort.h14737637.Hotel-Information) > > [R Degrees Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ambalangoda-Hotels-R-Degrees-Ambalangoda.h16627242.Hotel-Information) > > [North Gate Jaffna](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-North-Gate-By-Jetwing.h22276412.Hotel-Information) > > [Desire Village Rakwana](https://www.expedia.ca/Godakewela-Hotels-Desire-Village-Rakwana.h44124849.Hotel-Information) > > [Jetwing Kaduruketha](https://www.expedia.ca/Wellawaya-Hotels-Jetwing-Kaduruketha.h12874957.Hotel-Information) > > [Ella Deck Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ella-Hotels-Ella-Deck-Resort.h107262491.Hotel-Information) > > [Isana Beach House](https://www.expedia.ca/Morakatiyara-Hotels-Isana-Beach-House.h15616300.Hotel-Information) > > [Mawella Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Tangalle-Hotels-Mawella-Beach-Resort.h45673435.Hotel-Information) > > [Kitelantis Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalpitiya-Hotels-Kitelantis-Hotel-And-Resort.h31693921.Hotel-Information) > > [Shiny Lakeside Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hikkaduwa-Hotels-Shiny-Lakeside-Resort.h16075554.Hotel-Information) > > [Saffron Lake Yala](https://www.expedia.ca/Thissamaharama-Hotels-Saffron-Lake-Yala.h101432372.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Resort Galle](https://www.expedia.ca/Galle-Hotels-Amari-Galle.h16267123.Hotel-Information)
