A lovely relaxing stay in a beautiful room with breathtaking views over the lake. Excellent food and friendly, courteous staff. This is an ideal centre for exploring the ancient city of Anuradapura and the nearby Willpatu Nature Reserve.

Good Stay Check in was ok. I was disappointed as a Platinum member not to allocated a higher floor with a better view of the lake. Service was very attentive, a little too attentive at times. Front desk were excellent.

Geen ontbijtbuffet op dag 1 van ons verblijf wegens te weinig gasten. Hiervoor kregen we geen compensatie. Op dag 2 was er een verlovingsfeest waardoor we geen gebruik konden maken van de ligbedden en zwembad. Hiervoor evenmin compensatie. Het zwembad is bijzonder klein en verdient die naam niet. Weids uitzicht op het meer. Het hotel ligt totaal geïsoleerd met werkelijk niets in de buurt.

Einfacher, schneller Check in. Die Zimmer zum See waren ruhig. Toller Blick über den See. Das Restaurant bietet sehr gute Speisemöglichkeiten an. Schneller Checkout. Moskito Netz war verfügbar. Leider war der Pool ein bisschen kalt und recht schlecht gelegen da direkt an den Sitzbereichen der Lobby. Ich hätte mir auf dem Balkon einen Aschenbecher gewünscht.
