GGuest UserThis is more a resort then a normal hotel. with good facilities .
Even though it is more then 20 years old it is still o'kay and is currently being updated and renovated.
Back when it first opened ,it was probably the best resort in all of Sri Lanka!!
Quiet location ,a bit out of town ,but easy to get a Tuk Tuk to get around.
it is about 2 hours by bus from Colombo ,or probably quicker by train ........ but not as much fun!
Staff where freindly and helpful if needed.
GGuest UserUnfortunately underwhelming...
We booked a room with 2 double beds (alternatively 2 single bed) for a higher price because that's what we wanted - when we checked in, we were given a room with 1 double bed. Unfortunately the bed couldn't be spitted and no other room was available (which we highly doubted, as we were one of the early one's checking in that day).
We received a very soft co-sleeper bed...
The first night, we went to bed quite early as we were exhausted from the day. Suddenly, there was banging on the door - up to 10 times - before I was awake enough to open the door to 2 service guys from the hotel, giving me some cut fruits and 4 pralines - at 10:30pm!? I was totally confused by the time and behaviour...
Also the personnel wasn't of great help when asked regarding directions, post office, or else...
We just didn't like the experience we had in this hotel.
GGuest UserInitial experience wasn’t great at check-in, as the staff wasn’t giving accurate information about dinner prices, and wasn’t very friendly. There were also a few issues in the room. But the front desk was able to coordinate with their internal house keeping and engineering team to solve the problems. We were happy with their services in the end.
MMy name is DongDongIt's a very nice place, beautiful sea, all the services are good, very good food, perfect and clean room, I can promise to have a good time, for me it is a go to Sri Lanka A place to stop in the South. They also have a full bar and a nice pool
GGuest UserThe food was so delicious. You must book their ocean-view room, which is big and bright. The front desk was super nice and suggested that we upgrade to the ocean side instead of the railway side, because the railway side is a little noisy when the train passes by. The ocean side will not have this problem at all. The key is to eat roasted pig's trotters in Sri Lanka, which is so delicious!!!
GGuest UserThe experience was very bad. I booked the hotel early, but when I arrived at the local hotel, I was told that there was no reservation information. A large group of people were waiting at the front desk. It was very bad. The entire communication was back and forth between three parties. What’s even more outrageous is that one of the bookings has no room. I never thought that a platform as big as Ctrip would make this mistake. Beruwala is hot this season and mosquitoes bite in the evening. The final solution is also terrible. I have never dared to do so again. Booked an overseas hotel on Ctrip.
EEKATERINAHotel on the beach.
Pool with fresh water.
Air conditioning works only in one mode.
Refrigerator rumbles like a tractor. Louder than a train and the ocean.
The bar does not sell alcohol on holidays. In another hotel they sell it without problems.
The food is ordinary home-cooked. Sometimes it is not even tasty.
Does not match the price!!!!
Four sun loungers (but then they brought two more wooden ones)
