we spent few nights in this hotel and it was probably the worst hotel we came accross in Sri Lanka. Room was dumpy, small, worn out and you could hear absolutelly everything from outside.Breakfast rather poor and we always had to wait at least half an hour for ust toasts and tea. Location not great either as it's quite out... More

I stayed at Miltons for 8 nights in March this year and to say i was apprehensive was an understatement after reading the reviews. We stayed in a deluxe room on the top floor, and after understanding what happened in the Tsunami and seeing the photos prior to coming i wasn't expecting palatial. I could pick trivial faults with pretty... More

I recently stayed at this hotel with a group of mates for England cricket tour. Having read recent reviews on tripadvisor, we were all very concerned. Although we have found much of these bad reviews to be unfounded. I would like to say, that by no means is this hotel a palace, but for service from staff, the great airconditioning,... More

We were given a room with no closing window in the bathroom and could hear the traffic, very close to the room; the room was not finished, furniture was in CONCRETE, the bathroom was a huge empty room with a small sink, the bed and room with no charm at all unlike the pictures were showing, and the terrace was...

Hotel's website looks better than reality. The place would need a serious renovation, even though the view is great and the location right at the beach very good. The hotel was severely affected by the 2005 Tsunami and bigger parts of the terrace, walls etc. were not restalled yet. Furniture were old, but practical and clean. There was continous warm... More

Two out of four adults were put in a "standard room" that had dirty towels and no toiletpaper. Bloody linen in bed and no blankets. As I was complaining I was promised another cleaned room the next day. No room! In the morning me and my wife wake up with a lot of mosquitobites. One of the windows was impossible... More

The web site of this "resort" shows quite promising pictures of the building itself and of its surroundings. But really, if you have any option of staying somewhere else in Unawatuna - or why not in Galle - do it! Try to avoid Miltons at all costs. And definitely never ever book a so called "standard room" like my parents... More

Mixed thoughts in the end on this place. Staff were great but location further from Unawatuna then we wanted and actual beach is limited. Buildings need some work in terms of repair and rooms could do with an update. Popular with both locals themselves as well as foreigners. In general, an ok hotel but likely wouldn't stay there again.

Hotel's website looks very nice, but in reality the place is rather in need of serious overhaul. The hotel was severely affected by the 2005 Tsunami, the owner died for instance. We were promised new refurbished rooms. However, the rooms were indeed newly painted, but the furniture was very old. The beds showed signs of mildew. We then moved to... More
