My friend and I stayed here as part of a tour group and it was the worst place we stayed at. We stayed at some pretty ordinary places but this was the worst in terms of cleanliness and bad hygiene. I'll start with the bathroom... The shower curtain was covered in mould and obviously hadn't been washed for quite some... More

Stayed 2 nights, probably a bit overpriced for what it is, but the rooms were clean, air con & hot water were very good. The rooms are bland, it did have a balcony & the pool very clean. Paid 4950r for twin room. Breakfast would be extra 600 but went to a nearby cafe. Reception staff are a bit standoffish,... More

It was two terrible days we stayed. Rooms are very basic. Wash rooms were not maintained properly. Only served buffet for dinner and breakfast. Lunch was menu. When the dishes were empty no one to fill back. No bed tea is offered. This place is not suitable for foreigners. Very bad experiance. More

Hard to be positive but nothing much good to say about this place. Staff are OK - that is the high point. Bathroom had a dribbling shower, no hot water tap on sink and leaking toilet - I could go on but..........This was my 3rd choice in the area. Tried to get in Palm Graden - Full. Went to Tissawewa...

We stayed one night on our way on a tour to Anuradhapura and Mihintale. The Resthouse is located in the old town, but is very close to all the ruins. Through a tiny back gate you could access the lake - Tissa Wewa, which is more like a sea! An ealy morning walk is very plesant, but beware of lone... More
