Perfect Loaction, Need improvements

Reviewed By chamaracdj

It was a quick decision to stay at this hotel with my family and was perferct for a stay over and I reserved this for a H/B. Reception was okay and served with a welcome drink. But we were given a corner room and the view was not that good. However the A/C was running like an engine and we complained about it. Then they suddenly changed the room to good room with a better view. Don't know why they didn't give a better room initially. But that didn't bother our stay. Pool area was good and having an old pool with a perfect view to the lake and forests. Sunset was fantastic while seeing from the pool area. Food was average and nothing bad as it was a very simple buffet. Stay was okay for the low price ususally they offer. Service was not bad apart from the room allocation. Perfect for a stay over rather than spending the whole day or couple days.

Could be a whole lot better

Reviewed By gregorys585

This place could be a whole lot better & there is so much that it doesn’t have but could. There are two queen size beds (quite comfortable) in my room, which is overkill, but only one chair, no hangers or storage cupboards. There is nowhere to put anything really apart from the floor. The power points are at least a meter off the ground so to charge your phone or camera is with some difficulty as there is no table suitable. The bathroom could be cleaner. There is no where to hang anything apart from one towel rack & there is no shelf to put your toiletries. The TV had poor reception, each channel was fuzz but there was nothing in English anyway. On the positive side the room did have a small outside sitting area with a good view overlooking rice paddies (though a mosquito coil would have been nice to deter them) and the room does have a fan and air con. The staff are friendly and helpful and the breakfasts, I chose Sri Lankan over the continental, was great. Would I stay here again? To be fair there are two answers here, ‘yes’ & ‘no’. Yes, if you only want somewhere to sleep for the night (4 out of 5stars). No, if you are here for more than one night since the room didn’t have what it took to be able to really relax in and be comfortable for more than a night (3 out of 5stars).

Wood Side Tour Inn

COOL STAY

Reviewed By ronmason2019

Good location sandwiched between Minneriya & Polonnaruwa with convenient main road access. The lush garden vegetation tends to make the atmosphere quite airy & cool, when compared with the warm temperature that tends to prevail during summer outside this property! Ample space in bedrooms. Scrumptious Sri Lankan food! Very friendly, curteous & professional staff.

We spent three wonderful nights in Lak Nillas Guest House and will never forget the energetic and very helpful (we had some problems with our own bikes) owner Shirley. We went on a jeepsafari with him and his son and saw over 100 elephants. His wife cooks the best Rice and curry; also great breakfast. Fantastic value for money and lovely atmosphere. Great experience we can highly recommend to everybody who wants to get in contact with nice local people

Acancia Holiday Inn

Once good, once bad!

Reviewed By Roli H

FIRST OF ALL: THE NAME HERE IS WRONG!!!! IT'S CALLED ACACIA HOLIDAY INN We searched and found a good place for one night with reasonable price. The room No2 was spacious, nice and very clean. The woman who welcomed us was friendly and helpful and spoke good english. The price of 3500 SLR for an AC-Room was ok for the area. Unfortunately the restaurant which belongs to another family was closed. After an enjoyable night we made a reservation for one day later. When we came back another young woman was there, not very friendly and not good english. The room No2 was quite dirty this time. Only when we went to bed we discovered a lot of foreign hairs at the pillwo-cases and the bedcover.... We don't know which situation is normal...so far we don't recommend it!
