After 35 years of travelling to Sri Lanka and visiting this wonderful property for sometimes a month at time, we have seen many versions of the hotel, we have met staff we will remember forever and cherish memories that are unforgettable. This trip in particular has stood out to us which is why we feel the need to write a review. Upon arrival you are greeted by the friendliest doormen, who couldn't make you feel any more special, from the moment we see them we know we are at home number 2! The 5 star trea**ent starts... a cooling juice is served and towel, which is so welcomed after many hours of travelling from London. Our room was clean with a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a selection of exotic fruit, the views from this hotel are second to none the views of the shoreline you can see from the terrace and your bedroom, we highly recommend a garden sea view room. The food was excellent from breakfast to supper, we understand that all businesses in particular hospitality businesses were effected greatly by the pandemic but we can honestly say Mount is back on track. We wanted to take a moment to say a huge thank you to the wonderful team that Mount Lavinia has a special thanks to Mr Lal the front office manager and his team (Kuven) you are spectacular nothing is ever too much trouble. Over and out for now Hotel Mount Lavinia, we will be back in no time ;)
