The staff excels in friendly, flexible service, catering to dietary needs. Guests appreciate the varied, tasty breakfast buffet. Spacious, clean rooms offer serene lake views, though some suggest adding more meat options.

This is the worst hotel I have stayed in in Sri Lanka. I didn’t have high expectations and thought it was very close to Yala Park, so I just stayed for one night and tolerated it. But there are really many places where it’s unbearable. The first thing that happened was that there was no hot water for showering in our room. There were actually only two households staying in the hotel that day, but I negotiated with the hotel for almost an hour until almost midnight, and they still refused to change our room. It wasn't until I told the manager that I wanted to check out and asked him to refund the money that they relented and changed my room. Sri Lanka is very hot and stuffy. I really don’t want to take a shower in this weather. . . .
Then we changed rooms. We had hot water for bathing but the air conditioner was not good. Because we were so tired, we thought we could endure it as long as there was an electric fan.
The next morning, we agreed to arrange breakfast for us when we came back from Yala Park. But we ate breakfast, but they insisted on charging me 12 dollars for overtime check-out. So I negotiated with the manager for the second time, because I told the manager in advance yesterday that Yala would definitely check out late when she came back. At that time, the manager said it was no problem.
After my argument, the manager finally agreed to the promise made the day before. After this day of battle of wits and courage, I remind everyone to protect their rights and interests, never show weakness, and never come to this hotel.

In parts this hotel needs some attention, such as paintwork. The room was large and very comfortable, the wetroom was huge with plenty of hat water. The staff were most helpful, nothing was too much trouble, and they took pleasure in serving guests and looking after them. We ate there several times the food and service was superb. One of the best Sri Lankan curries we had in our stay. There is a very relaxing garden and we had a balcony overlooking the lake, so there are options for relaxing and of course there is a lovely swimming pool.

Stayed one night at Diyadahara, and it was a nice stay. The food was great, with a good variety of reasonable options. The rooms were clean and spacious. The staff was very supportive. This is not a luxury experience, but it is an extremely satisfying one, offering comfort and good service for a reasonable price.

Beautiful hotel on a beautiful location with lake view. Very spacious and clean rooms. Only the food was disappointing. The host was very friendly and helpful and all staff were very friendly but for all of them spoke very poor to no English.
