Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and luxurious rooms with incredible views of the green surroundings. The service is top-notch with very polite and friendly staff. The location, though needing maintenance, is comfortable and allows for a unique experience in nature. The dining options are good, especially on Saturday nights, and the facilities are enjoyable.
The hotel offers stunning views over the lake and surrounding area, with well-equipped and upscale rooms featuring a spa bath in the bathroom window. The service is super friendly and attentive. The peaceful and relaxing location is perfect for those wanting to be close to nature, but it can get crowded. The dining experience is fabulous but slightly expensive, with expansive and tasty dishes catering to a variety of tastes. The facilities are top-notch, ensuring a luxurious stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although clean and comfortable, showed signs of needing refurbishment. The service was friendly and engaging but slightly pushy. The location was stunning with double views of Sigiriya and the lake. The dining experience was lovely with a variety of delicious options.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean and cozy, the staff was very helpful but could be a bit friendlier, and the location was simply stunning. The dining experience was delightful, although a bit chaotic at times. Overall, a great value for the money.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The location was beautiful, offering stunning views of the surrounding trees and one of the swimming pools, but it felt isolated from nearby attractions. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff making our stay special, but the rooms were a bit damp and distant from the main facilities, leading to long walks. The dining experience was excellent, providing a variety of high-quality food options, especially in the breakfast buffet.
The hotel offers breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding forests from the fifth-floor rooms. While the preparation time was a bit slow, the floor-to-ceiling windows provide an incredible experience. However, the service fell short in some aspects despite the beautiful nature dance executed at the location.
My stay at the hotel was a delightful mix of nature sightings and minor inconveniences. The rooms, though spacious and well-equipped, had some unexpected guests like ants and mosquitoes. The hotel's unique integration into the rock formations added a fascinating touch to the experience, but the insect visitors were a downside.
The hotel is nestled in a serene location surrounded by tree branches with really spacious and beautifully furnished rooms, offering a cozy and elegant decor. However, some areas like the view and swimming pool could benefit from modernization.
My stay at the hotel was delightful, with clean and spacious rooms, a fantastic location, and friendly staff. However, the dining experience could use some improvement in terms of variety. The facilities were well-maintained, and overall, it offered good value for money.
On our second night, the room was painfully dark, requiring me to use my phone torch even during the day to find my belongings in the suitcase, and the proximity to the A/C unit made it really noisy. The hotel is situated through the forest towards the lake, offering a unique setting with some drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, though small, was surprisingly comfortable. However, it lacked the promised mountain view and some basic amenities like bathrobes. The location was remote but peaceful, ideal for relaxation, yet not convenient for exploring nearby. The dining experience was exceptional with a delicious and diverse buffet spread. Overall, a stay with both highlights and drawbacks.
