Reviews
-
Rather pricey. Staff did zero cleaning of the room, which we experienced at all other places. Dinner was quite mediocre
-
But hotel is a bit oldish, dusty (rooms were not neat nor 100% clean), and could be more animated to take care of clients. Prices are far too high for thé prestation.
-
food was good have to take care of the monkeys. they are dangerous. There were branches on trees that were dead and hanging.
-
Troublesome internet. No pool. Pricey.
-
Great location and easy to see all the sites
-
Very good
-
Architectural structure, restaurant staff Price vs quality is 100% unbalanced Dirty room, dirty and moldy bathroom Everything is neglected Service is incredibly slow and not efficient at all
-
The colonial building is just amazing, the room was cosy and clean. The garden around the property is so lush and full of animal life: we saw monkeys and a huge monitor lizard. The food was really good for both breakfast and dinner. The do not serve alchool at the restaurant. The door of the room locks itself when you close it from outside, we left the key inside twice in less then 24 hours.

Very nice staff manning a beautiful facility at a slightly remote location. Exquisitely quiet. IU was th one ly guest on one night, so no one to talk with.
-
Great location - beautiful old building! We could walk to many of the sites. And the grounds of the hotel are very quiet. It is also great value for the money. Service and comfort could be upgraded - although we didn't really have any issues. The hotel has an old world charm. The service is similar.

The building is beautiful and the position in a large garden with peacock and parakeet and monkeys is lovely. The property needs a bit of care and attention to detail as well as some improvements to make it aesthetically as pleasing as one would expect. The dining room is really dull/ugly. Some indoor plants, paintings, music, cushions for the sofa chairs could go a long way in making the space a little more friendly and comfortable. The magnificent upstairs terrace is totally neglected.

This property was the Colonial Governor's house until Independence. Indeed, allegedly, QE II stayed here while on tour in 1954. It retains it's original charm and the welcome is very warm. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Being inside The Sacred City boundaries, all of the sites to be visited can easily be reached by bicycle. The food is good. Hardly surprisingly, the Sri Lankan dishes are much better than Western. The breakfast is a feast. This really is a Sanctuary although The Sacred City is a deeply calm and spiritual place. It important to be correctly dressed and to be respectful. Overall, our visit was a great joy. The dining area is a bit soulless and functional.
