The hotel is undergoing renovation from what must have been state of the art 1980's hotel to fully modern international hotel, but I stayed in one of the older rooms and found it very comfortable. When completed the hotel will have about 100 rooms. Power and hot water stayed on, the room airconditioning was terrific, and beds were nice and... More

Nice staff..here are many positive points and some negative. And that in combination with terrible construction work which took place at every corner of the hotel. First, we were welcomed very well. The staff at the lobby were very friendly. More

Stayed for one night as part of an independent tour. Found the hotel to be generally satisfactory with the exception that extensive refurbishment works were being undertaken around the hotel including works to bedrooms either side of the room we stayed in. Impact of building works mean only a 2 star rating. Once these have been completed rating could improve.... More

We stayed here for one night on a trip to Polonnaruwa. The hotel is in an excellent setting with very nice gardens and view of the lake. Staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was comfortable and clean. A bit short on amenities, no in-room safe or Tea/coffee facility. We asked for a hairdryer and one was delivered to the... More

No way to talk to the management, they'd tell you each time you complain that those are noises from the kitchen (!) . Food is... More

Our friends were rather happy with their room. We only ate at the hotel once and were quite disappointed. The staff was a bit annoying too - asking questions which had nothing to do with the food every five- ten minutes interrupting our meal. Would not go there again. More

I booked triple bedroom, the room was very very large than a normal room.It was and very clean newly done.. Food was good, but the breads were different colors(pink and other colors) The yard was very nice, facing the lake. They are trying the best. Internet free at the lobby. Staff was helpful. More
