Not sure what's going on with the 5/5 reviews - our experience was vastly different. I've given feedback to management directly, so won't labour the point here. Positives: - The staff were lovely (as everywhere in Sri Lanka) - Breakfast was generous, reasonably priced and good - Great view - Hot shower Negatives - This is a 2-2.5 star property at best - looks good from afar but needs serious renovation - Rough finishings, tired furnishings, musty smell throughout, very sparse (our large family room was mostly empty floor space) - Felt like an abandoned castle in the middle of nowhere - zero atmosphere We had initially booked 2 nights but left after the first and moved into another hotel.

Incredible view and personalized service. We preferred to eat outside in town to get the feel of the city since there was no ambiance on site.

We loved the staff and owner here - they treated us like family and we felt like we were staying with friends. The hotel is only very very recently opened, and they are still building their boutique service. This will improve with time and we could not speak more highly of their warmth and enthusiasm. No doubt with time, they will become more well-oiled. The food was excellent, the rooms were super comfortable and the location, while a little out of town, is only a short tuk-tuk ride away - something that the . The location and views were phenomenal. This is a really unique property and well worth booking.
