Отель находится на территории слоновьего питомника , удобно , так как слонов ведут купаться в 8.30 6 слонов. И в 10.00 большую группу с малышами. Можно до основной толпы туристов прийти и посмотреть и сфотографировать слонов, и покормить их. Приехали вечером в 18.00. Заселились , единственное попросили квитанцию об оплате ее сразу не нашли, так поменяли симку в аэропорту. Но заселили и подождали пока найдем квитанцию. Так уже все было закрыто пошли ужинать мы в ресторан у реки. Брали рис со свининой и с говядиной, рис вкусный , а мясо пережаренное и жёсткое. Отдали цену больше по стоимости блюд , но сдачу почти 1000 рупий не дождались. Отель чистый но уставший, не было шампуня , только мыло. Чайник был., так как брали без завтрака пили кофе в стрип пакетах . ( с собой брали) Очень хороший , приветливый персонал . Закрывайте двери и окна, легли спать и в24 00 начали ломится в балконную дверь, дёргать за ручку, потом побежали по крыше и начали дергать двери входную за ручку. По тени около двери поняли , что это обезьяна.. Отель рекомендую. Хотя есть и дешевле. Дороже у реки , в принципе не обязательно, все и так доступно.

We had a lovely stay at Elepath Lodge in Pinnawala. The lodge was peaceful, clean, and surrounded by greenery. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. It was just a short walk to the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, which made it easy for us to visit in the morning. The meals were tasty and felt like home-cooked food. A great place to relax and enjoy nature.

We had a wonderful stay at Elepath Lodge. Located close to the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, the lodge offers easy access to the elephants, with a great view of them bathing in the river just a short walk away. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any request. If you're looking for a peaceful, nature-filled retreat near the elephant orphanage, we highly recommend Elepath Lodge. Great service, comfortable rooms, and a memorable elephant experience make it a fantastic choice.

I stayed here one night, my driver stayed here for 3 nights. The staff were lovely, and cheerfully lifted a table into the room so I could work ! Some rooms have air conditioning and en-suite, some don't. Rooms without, have a fan and a shared bathroom. The hotel is on the street where the elephants walk down ... pretty spectacular !! There is private parking around the back of the hotel (well technically the front !) The entrance on the 'elephant street' is the back door - so all feels a bit weird, when you follow the signs, and arrive at somewhere with no desk, no people. Go through the hotel, go downstairs, and you will find reception !
