Devon Rest

Great location in front of the lake,close enough to town but quiet enough to feel the serenity. We had breakfast included and the food was excellent. The hotel is fairly new and well maintained, staff are very helpful and attentive. We had a lovely stay here.

We had a wonderful stay at the Devon Rest for one night. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, with a beautiful view of the lake, making it a very inviting space. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, but I must especially commend Ms. Niroshika at the front desk. From the moment I made the reservation to our departure, she went above and beyond with her courteous and attentive assistance, truly enhancing our experience. The breakfast was also excellent. It is clear that their dedication to guest satisfaction will undoubtedly encourage repeat visits and contribute to the success of the hotel.

I truly recommend this place that possesses a spectacular view and warm hospitality. I caught this place from TripAdvisor and I was delighted with the first phone call which I made to check the availability. He was a really nice guy but um really sorry I couldn't get his name properly. I was very excited to step into Devon rest since that was the coolest room reservation, I have ever made. Once we stepped into Devon, we were truly delighted with the view and their warm welcome. As we arrived there after a long train journey with my one year old baby, they were allowed to check in early. Devon is walking distance to all the other important landmarks (Temple of Tooth Relic, KCC, Cargills food city, Railway station) too. The room was spacious with nice amenities and super comfy bed and pillows. The room and bathroom were clean. We got a lake view room upon our request and I really appreciate the staff since they are very friendly and always there to support. Our favourite dish was Sri Lankan rice and curry and all the food we had there was mouthwatering. My one year old baby was also had their Sri Lankan rice and curry and they didn't think twice to customize the curries as we wanted. Shashitha and Rathnasiri, thank you very much for the support you guys gave thorough out our stay at Devon. You both were simply amazing and we really appreciate you both since your hospitality is exceptional. Though we have visited many five star hotels in Sri Lanka, I would like to say that this is the warmest welcome and hospitality we ever received.

We spent one night at the hotel. The room was very nice with a lovely view of the lake. The staff were also very helpful and accommodating when we asked for a late breakfast after some early morning sightseeing. Breakfast was also excellent as well.
