Hotel in zona Muhamdiran ella, Kalutara

One of the tour hotels for Luxury Tours. I would not recommend this hotel for future trips. Hotel looks amazing on first entry, lovely lobby, very grand. It was raining heavily when we arrived and checkin was okay (group of 16). The first main issue is that the hotel is not conveniently located in my opinion (our tour skipped Galle and staying 1.5 hours away in Kalutura). I expect the price was a factor in that decision for our tour. Anyhow, once you get to the rooms and start to get in and look closely, you can see the age of the hotel and the musty smell in many areas, obviously more because of rain that night. We ended up googling and found the hotel was built in 1983 and apparently last renovated in 1999 (before the tsunami that actually when though hotel). I expect there was some repairs at that point in 2004 also, but otherwise it's really overdue for a refresh. They had to entire wings of this large hotel shut off and not sure they were planning on reopening, didn't look like any work was going on. Felt quite creepy in some areas when we walked around. The spa was badly signposted, feels like it may have moved locations, the jacuzzi for the spa clearly wasn't being used as looks abandoned. There were villas and a beach access door on one side of property that were all shut up or locked, the hotel next door appears to have closed down. Very gloomy and depressing, so don't recommend exploring. Rooms were okay size, bathrooms small and kinda gross, mold in the shower cubicle and screens not that nice. Well appointed amenities though, toothbrush and vanity kit etc. Door to bathroom had a glass window with a blind that had seen better days. When the sun was out the next day, was much nice one the wet smell had mostly gone. Pool area was nice. Great that it's next to beach expect you can't swim in it as apparently too rough and heaps drown there, no beach to walk along, so that sucks, just rocks. So basically trapped in the complex. Prices were insane for a Sri Lankan hotel for drinks! Cocktails were Australian prices, so didn't bother trying any. Buffet was okay, extensive food options, but not actually that good and mostly cold. I got excited for crab, but then they deepfried it and provided nothing to help get the crab out of the legs that were coated in batter, very strange. Almost too much staff, clearing plates away before you really had a chance to finish, and often getting in the way lol. Oh and the really annoying thing, I called to ask for some ice. They bought to the room, and then asked me to sign the BILL!!! For ice. It was only 240 rupees, but never in my life have I been charged for ice in a hotel. And then the day before we checked out, they rang at 12pm to ask to come and clear the bill since we were leaving next day, and my friend said we will come later. Then they called again at 230pm to ask when we were coming. I said really, can't we just pay when we check out like normal, and they said we really prefer

L'hotel è moderno , fresco , ben mantenuto . Perfetto per una vacanza rilassante con palestra , eccellente piscina lunga , yoga , zona sportiva . L'accesso alla spiaggia è privato e pacifica. La diffusione di cibo era lavagna Nd gusto . Il personale è molto amichevole Nd va fuori dal modo per aiutarvi. Ci siamo divertiti la vasta diffusione di cibo per la cena di gala di nuovi anni. Il bar ha una buona scelta di liquore. Puoi prendere un tuktuk dal lobby hotel in giro per vedere la vita locale. Andare a pesca ricchi e guardare il negozio o altri per vestiti economici ma di buona qualità quotidiana. Passando 5 notti con l'hotel ci rilassavamo poi ci siamo trasferiti a bentota per godere della spiaggia che è tranquilla Nd uno dei migliori che abbia mai incontrato nel mondo viaggiando intorno . Grazie speciali a Tusharri per averci assicurato il miglior soggiorno Nd il contatto personale che ha fornito e il signor Prasad Wijesyriya per mantenere l' albergo così bene . La struttura è molto più ampia e offre una piscina lunga e un soggiorno a Taj bentota, ma ci sono citrus molto meglio con piscina , camere e prezzo per la qualità .

E un posto Molto bello,mare bellissima, e tutti servizzi molto bene,ducati persone,magngiare bonissima,e pulito, stanza perfecto e pulito posso garantire per divettire, tanto per me un posto verso andando sud srilanka per fermare anche hanno un bar completo e un pishina bellissima

L'esperienza è molto cattiva. Ho prenotato l'hotel presto. È stato detto che non c'era messaggio di prenotazione all'hotel locale. Un gran numero di persone aspettavano alla reception. È molto cattivo. L'intera comunicazione è triangolare. Più lontano da questa situazione, c'è un ordine senza camera. Non ho mai voluto che una piattaforma così grande di Trip.com commettasse questo errore. Beiruvala è calda e infestata di latte in questa stagione. La soluzione finale è anche terribile. Non oso prenotare hotel all'estero di Trip.com da allora.

實在是一言難盡的體驗，怪不得也沒多少國人入住。 酒店屬於本地的連鎖酒店，雖然在攜程上打的是5星級，酒店牆壁貼滿tripadvisor sgs等認證，加上是bawa設計的遺作 但入住後實在強差人意 入住的時候剛好碰上小高峯，同時間好幾團旅遊團辦理入住，前台顯得有點手忙腳亂。所幸的護照行李等也沒有弄亂，安全的拿到房卡。 酒店面積有點大，前台所在的大樓實屬5🌟，bawa的功力放在50年前絕對是劃時代的作品。 但一離開酒店主樓，就彷彿去了另外一個酒店，年代感撲面而來。尤其是中間那草坪看着像prison yard。草坪毫無修飾，坑坑窪窪 邊上有幾衹野狗在遊蕩。 進入房間後不過不失，但與主樓相比最多就值個3🌟但由於非常接近海邊故住在二樓地面也會無緣無故泛潮。雖然酒店在2019完成翻新但房間的設施也非常不合邏輯。 整個房間衹有一個空出來的電源插座，其餘的都是插上了燈 燒水壺 電視等設備。天花燈的開關非常有趣，左邊床的開關控制右邊床的燈。 入住的時候也帶娃去了小童樂園，就是國內商場那種室內小童樂園但裏面的維護實在不敢恭維，最可怕的是連電箱蓋子打開也沒人管 如果放在老美早就給人控告賠錢 餐飲方面不算貴但口味不在線。不過有一説一這邊的服務員比較local貼地，可能因為酒店大多數都是本地客多。整個酒店白人亞洲人住下來吃早飯碰到的10個都不到。跟之前住的anatara有明顯區別，那邊可能歐美客户多，員工都習慣了什麼都tiptiptiptip，bentota這邊的比較真誠

Not much to add to the other review.Marvellous place for our two days stay,peaceful room spacious and comfortable,clean and tidy every where and service tip top.Food was great and G.S Sanjeewa (Restaurant supervisor ) was perfectly his duty done.wish u all for success in hotel field and future endeavors.May God bless u all.
