What truly sets this hotel apart is the exceptional staff. The team at the central restaurant was absolutely brilliant — attentive, friendly, and incredibly professional, making every meal a memorable experience. Equally impressive were the concierge staff, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was seamless and enjoyable. Their knowledge, warmth, and dedication to service made a lasting impression. A truly outstanding experience thanks to the people who work there.

Facilities of the property and ambience was great. Rooms were clean and turned down service daily which was excellent stuff for very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately not many authentic Sri Lankan dishes in the flavour was lacking by saying that there was loads of dishes and condiments mainly orientated to its Indian food. overall experience was good.
