Well what an experience!! Had a fabulous stay, watched the elephants bathing from the balcony whilst eating breakfast!! Huge bedrooms, the staff were fabulous and very warm and welcoming, and I have to give a special mention about Shalika, she was exceptionally helpful, very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Likewise I’d like to give a mention about Andrew, he collected us from the train station and after getting us checked in to the hotel he then took us out on a very interesting sightseeing tour of the local vicinity. Such a helpful guy. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Rooms are so outdated , dirty curtains , very old style and AC facing the bed directly making it so uncomfortable to sleep. The best part about this hotel is that it looks over the river where elephants bath . Food wise , order local food it is ok , western is not good at all ( burger was not touched ) . Overall : location is super , food is so so , rooms are stoneage.

Went here on the recommendation of a trusted friend who stayed here 4 years ago. Bit of a bind having to pay extra if you arrive before 4pm as it is part of the elephant orphanage land. That works out at about $15 a head so beware. The reception staff are good, got shown to a fantastic room 002 huge with a fabulous view of the river and the elephants when they were around. The room was sparingly furnished, no wardrobes or chest of drawers, so until they provided us with a clothes horse we lived out of a suitcase. Also the room was not cleaned or the bed made up for the 2 days we were there, but as there were 2 huge beds in their with 2 x spare towels not much of a problem. That was our main gripe. Unknown to us we had signed up for dinner bed and breakfast at £60 a night for the 2 of us. This worked out very well. The food is good and plentiful and the restaurant staff superb. Drink prices are very reasonable as well. One final word we were introduced to Andrew who organises the trips etc. He is a superb guy and absolutely goes out of his way to help, he is a great fixer, on time and knowledgeable. Grade A++. Look out for him to make your trip easier.

We stayed here in October 2024 and had an absolutely wonderful experience! The room was beautiful, clean, and offered a stunning river view from the balcony. We were greeted with a thoughtful welcome gift – cute elephant necklaces – which made us feel special right away. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive throughout our stay, always making sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, with plenty of variety and great flavors. Everything was spotless and perfectly maintained. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience – highly recommended!

Lets face it we only stay here for the elephants but Sadly just a money making venture. Nothing genuine about this place. Totally misleading description and I had no idea that I’d just paid to contribute towards mis treated elephants. Having come from Udawalawe the difference is insane. We stayed here to see elephants bathing naturally but they’re actually part of some god awful zoo up the road. I thought this would be wholesome but they’re followed with spikey sticks, hit and shouted at. There were elephants chained in the river and forced to lay down whilst eager tourists climbed all over them. Can’t leave the hotel as you get challenged every 2 minutes about having a ticket to the elephant “orphanage”. Which is a joke in itself. All they want to do is take your money. Foods ok but you’re ripped off for where you are. Had to pay $21 to check in 15 minutes early because my son was ill. This included paying for our driver who was dropping us of. When we spoke to the staff about our experience they weren’t interested then the lady behind the desk blanked us for the rest of our stay. Room was ok - no safe for our valuables, only one coffee cup for a family Of 3 and I called to ask for a pillow 3 times and it still never showed up. Room wasn’t cleaned either. Blaring and thudding music from the restaurant from 6am. Sadly I’d avoid at all costs. Only good thing was the lads in the restaurant, the view of the river and the Sri Lankan breakfast was tasty.
