It’s hard to describe in one word. The staff had a good attitude, but was rather rigid and wasted a lot of our time. I didn't notice the difference between one person and two people when booking online. When I arrived at the front desk, I was told that the reservation was for one person and not two people. I said I would pay the difference. The front desk said no, they had to go to the platform to book again, but there were no rooms available on the platform that day... The next day, they said the room didn't come with breakfast, and after another round of trouble, they said their system had made a mistake. Speechless. Thank you Ctrip for helping us communicate and solve the problem in time.

Facilities: The Wi-Fi signal in the room is not good, but after suggestions, the hotel clicked an expansion router at the door, and the signal is much better.
Environment: Very good, sometimes there are black-faced monkeys on the roof

Elephant Reach Yala was a fantastic stay! The rooms were spacious and well-designed, but what truly stood out was the incredibly friendly and attentive staff. The close proximity to Yala National Park was a bonus, making the safari experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

L’Elephant Reach Hotel è un posto molto carino, immerso nella natura, con una piscina davvero splendida che rappresenta un ottimo spazio per rilassarsi. Tuttavia, l’esperienza nella camera ha lasciato un po’ a desiderare. I rumori esterni, tra macchine e condizionatori, erano molto evidenti, rendendo difficile godersi la tranquillità del luogo. Inoltre, l’assenza di Wi-Fi in camera e una manutenzione non ottimale hanno influito sulla qualità del soggiorno. Per quanto riguarda il cibo, l’ho trovato nella norma, senza particolari note di merito o difetti. Nel complesso, una struttura con tanto potenziale che potrebbe migliorare con alcuni accorgimenti.

The different perspectives of customers are interesting! We found this hotel pleasant and the staff very helpful. Lovely massage at a much lower cost than the beachfront hotels. The front desk arranged our safaris and these were brilliant. The food was fine although the coffee was instant which was not good. The room was comfortable and had a nice deck where we could sit. The pool is a good size and towels were available. Beer and wine were available.

If elephants reached this safari lodge they would have turned back sharp ish. It is a tired lodge with the only nod to being a safari lodge are a few faded cheap animal prints, some just propped up on the floor. Whilst rooms are clean but basic. Swimming pool is large and gardens well maintained. However if your looking for a lounger cushion or pool towel you may as well ask an elusive elephant in Yalla, your will probably get the same non committed response in the hope you just go away. Unlike the rooms the bland dining room’s floor had clearly not been cleaned for some time. However that was nothing compared to the dirt and grime in the staff area or room above. I chose just to have the one breakfast there.

The resort is close to yala national park. We booked with the hotel a game drive which turned out very well. The resort is protected by a wall and security service. Nicely integrated to nature and nice pool area. Also the cabins and beds worked well for us. Excellent cook who tries to fulfill every wish you have. Also the rest of personnel is very friendly und service oriented. They helped us to arrange trips even though those were not in scope of the hotel. There is no bar or hard alcohol license.
