I can’t say enough about the hospitality that my wife and I received from this hotel. Mahinda went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. He set up our safari and ensured we had a ride made breakfast and ensured we got home safe.

アヌラーダプラとウィルパッドゥ国立公園目的で予約。シャワーの水圧は低いですが、お湯も出ます。親切なAshanさんはメールの返信も迅速でとても優しくしてくれました。夕方の到着便でしたが、送迎も行ってくれました。徒歩圏内にスーパーもあります。

Très jolie petit hôtel, tout récent et très bien tenu. Très bon confort. Repas excellents , 3 soirs de suite, sous une tonnelle dans le jardin. Seul petit bémol: étant situé au bord d'un grand boulevard, le bruit du traffic peut gêner.
