Seerock the King's Domain

Where do i start. It was a one of the relaxed weekends i had in a while. I am so greatful to have stayed in Seerock which was a amazing little hotel with outstanding service to be offered. Away from city in the midst of total quietness is what anyone would ask for. Whoever read this review please feel free to check it out . I can 100% vouch for it. - Location - Easy to get by via Habarana. Once you are at Habarana you can reach the hotel via Tuk Tuk. Make sure to use Pick Me (Similar as Uber). Or you could even arrange a pick through the hotel who are happy to do the needful. Hotel is close to Sigiriya and Pidurangala as well which is a plus Hotel was kind enough to arrange a Safari at Hurulu Park where we were lucky to see some Elephants at their own habitat. Tharanga (Safari Driver) was very well aware where to go so we would have the best experience. - First impression - We were welcomed by Shehara (Front Desk) witha big smile . Welcome drinks were offered & check in was pretty quick. - Room - A well maintained, clean & luxurious little room with a Jacuzzi built in . Belive me it was a perfect fit and its suited for a family as well. - Food & Service- Chef Renuka and team are gifted with amazing skillset. Every dish they offered us was out of the world. Special shoutout to Daminda and Krishantha who served us through the stay was always happy to make sure we enjoyed each meal. Thank you Seerock The Kings Domain for the outstanding hospitality. This is the least I could do for the hospitality you offered. Looking for to see you next year.

The room with the jacuzzi is great. It’s the only good thing about the hotel other than the staff. The room is actually a luxurious room but the water pressure was not that good. Also the jacuzzi wasn’t working really well. It leaked on our first night. Pool had no view at all and the showers and the water feature was not working at all. Several pool tiles were also broken and there were many frogs inside the pool. Also it was not cleaned properly. There was no place to take nice pictures even. They’ve ample place but not maintained properly. Landscaping is nil. Also horrible wifi Food was the worst we’ve ever tried at any hotel. Don’t get fooled by the positive comments regarding the food. I’m pretty sure they’ve not tried star hotels before. The menu was horrible. There was actually nothing to choose from. Menu needs to change and also only the local food was okay. Other than that pastas was horrible. I had a spaghetti bolognese and it was not a bolognese at all. They just served me noodles with beef and tomato slices 🤦🏾‍♂️ The worst thing is we booked the hotel on full board through another app with a discount. The management refused to serve us English breakfast because we booked it on a discount. It was not mentioned anywhere at all. Also it’s very poor to treat different customers in a different way. The only silver lining is Shehara who tried her best to give us an enjoyable vacation but this was a disastrous vacation. Again what I have to say is don’t be fooled by the pictures or positive comments

We had a lovely stay in this hotel which was located in the middle of nowhere but close to the Sigiriya Rock. About 25 individual chalets, beautifully designed, super comfortable, spacious and fun. The restaurant served delicious local food.

Comfortable well appointed rooms , but that’s it. Despite several emails they had not adhered to our request for a triple room. The food was probably the worst we’ve ever had in any resort/ hotel anywhere in the world. The restaurant can only be accessed by climbing a very steep flight of stairs. Being disabled, this was impossible . I was told that the food could be brought to the room at an additional charge of Rs 1000 each meal! There was no pool attendant and the shower and water feature at the pool did not work. There was no way to communicate with the staff from the room. No phone. We were given a daily menu with 3 choices for each meal. There was no a la carte menu. For someone who cannot eat carbs, there were no options available. Dessert was a tiny square of “Crème caramel” made from a packet ! Disgusting ! Indeed a great shame for a hotel with so much potential.

This place deserves the 5 stars it earned! The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is amazing, friendly and very helpful. When they realised that the WiFi was weak, they fixed it within minutes . Breakfast is sufficient, it is not a buffet. Location is very good 15 min. From the ROCK.

I'm a frequent traveler and I was tempted to try out this hotel as I came across one of their offers. I called the hotel and checked their availability and placed a temporary booking. Then I confirmed the offer and made the payment and requested them to send the booking confirmation. I had been trying for 3 days to get a booking confirmation from them!!! But still had NO success. I travel a quite a lot and sending a booking confirmation is a matter of few minutes usually. I was surprised why it is taking them days to send a simple booking confirmation. I have made more than 10 calls over the past 3 days to ask for the booking. Also, to my surprise I found that the last few calls made to the landline were intentionally picked up and cancelled. (This is a FIRST in many of my travels). Also, I had the feeling that the first female agent who picked up the reservation was clueless. She was not good in her English, so I spoke to her in Sinhalese. Whenever I inquired about the booking she will reply saying it will be sent shortly. But it never came in the first 3 days. What a waste of time! Finally on the fourth day another reservation executive picks up the call and sends me a booking for a different set of days. I tried to call and ask them to correct it. But the hotel never picked up any of their phones. So i finally decided to cancel the booking. I'm sure they have made a Blunder somewhere!!! hence this reaction! I have seen hotels make mistakes before but the quality hotels always try to make amends and will usually try to check with the customer and correct it. This is a good sign of the lack of quality and lack of training of the staff. If the staff is this negligent and rude even prior to your arrival, I'm glad I didn't go there to find out!
