Good hotel in a good location

This is a nice little hotel in a great location. Our room was large and comfortable. Things were clean and the staff was very accommodating. Breakfast was good. And you have your choice of a western breakfast or a Sri Lankan breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness

Unpleasant and disapointing.

Checkin was very disappointing. They made me wait 1 hour: Offered me a coffee which I then was told I had to pay for, to finaly say that my room was not ready. That night the front desk called me in the middle of the night, waking me up, to tell me I had to come pay my coffee (when I tried to pay, they didnt have change and told me to pay later) . There was abaolutely no window to the outside. No hot water in shower. Only a left over toilet paper roll, and very noisy as I could hear conversations in the resraurant bellow. On the positive side, the staff at checkin was nice.

Well located

The hotel is perfectly placed to walk to the temple, lake and market. A 20 min walk of brief tuk tuk ride from the station. Reasonably comfortable bed with a private en-suite. The only issue was that one wall of the room is a floor to ceiling window that looks onto the hallway and lets in light from the hall until it is switched off around 11pm. So maybe ask which rooms might be best if you prefer the dark! Air con very good and warm shower. The food is delicious, both breakfast and dinner. Highly recommend the Sri Lankan breakfast tho you have to book it the day before. Very VERY lovely and helpful staff!

ペラヘラ祭りの巡行のルートに立地していたため祭り見学には最高のポジションでした。ただ部屋の近くに2階桟敷席があったので夜中まで騒がしい感じでした。(疲れていたので気にせず寝ましたが、、、)ホテルのサジキ席は15000yenと高いので近くの席を10000yenで確保しました。祭り見学には良いホテルでした、スタッフの皆さんもフレンドリーでいい感じです。部屋のクオリティーは値段なりのものといったところです。

スタッフの方は、とても親切。下のカフェの料理も美味しい。2階のバルコニーは風通しがよく、気持ちがよい。この辺のホテルの中ではもリーズナブルな方だと思う。カーテンはあるが、部屋が廊下とガラス張りになってたのが少々気になるポイント。

Les chambres 203 et 204 font face à la rue donc un peu bruyante de jour. La bonne nouvelle c'est que le trafic arrête après 19h donc les nuits sont calmes. Le personel est très à l'écoute et serviable.
