Great little hotel! ”

The staff at this hotel were honestly the highlight of my short stay in Sri Lanka - genuine good people and couldn't be more helpful. Breakfast is fresh and delicious, with option for Western or Sri Lankan style. The toast and jams and teas are fantastic. Very good central location and tucked away back from the street a bit. Highly recommended!

1階の部屋でがっかり”

スタンダードダブルの部屋を予約しました。写真では窓から明るい光が差し込む部屋で、眺望ありとなっていましたが、私の部屋は1階で窓は中庭に面した小さなはめ込み窓のみ。ここは本当に客室ですか?という感じの暗い部屋でした。また鍵も壊れそうでした。上階へ変更したい旨伝えましたが、満室とのことで我慢しました。 朝食はコンチネンタル1択。スリランカ式の朝食もチョイスできるような記載がありましたが、何も聞かれませんでした。 スタッフはフレンドリーだし、カジュアルな雰囲気は気に入りましたので、今後予約される方は、絶対に上階の部屋を予約してください。

Smells very bad, open space looks very beautiful in pictures but is full of mud and dirt. No direct sunlight or fresh breeze so all rooms have an unpleasant smell. Spend a little more and find a better place inside the fort itself.
