Spacious rooms. Ample parking next to River side building. Food was good and had a good spread specially local cuisine targeted for foreigners.
Rooftop pool was too deep (5ft) for me. Also no baby pool or shallow end.

The people were very nice and helpful
The bed was too old, we woke up with back pain in the morning, the sheets and towels were too old and not clean that you cannot use them

good view
i have checked in at 7pm and it was a night stay for me and my partner.
then around 7.45 i called the receptionist and asked for the dinner menu and they transferred the call to the kitchen and they said they will close at 8pm and they have only fried rice. so i have ordered it and asked for a chicken soup as well.
it wasn’t value for the money that i have paid. i will upload it too.
and same time they said they have closed the bar at 8pm same day.
room was clean but hot-water kettle hasn’t cleaned for months.
hot-water shower also had some issues as well!

Location
I was allocated the room with a terrible back view, I Am pretty sure there was an option to allocate another one, particularly it is a customer bithday
4.0 / 10.0
1. Location is convenient and easy to access, easy to find.
2. Since it was a triple room, it was big and roomy
3. The breakfast spread was good, and the food served was tasty
4. The servers / waiters were friendly and helpful
1. The room was dirty and had not been properly cleaned
2. In-room dining was expensive, but the portions were good.
3. The gutter on the balcony was leaking and water was continuously dripping onto the balcony. Seems to be a problem that has existed for a very long time since the balcony railing was corroded and the paint was flaking off at the drip point.
4. The bathroom showerhead was clogged, meaning that the water would drip down and not spray out.
5. Air-conditioner remote was held together with tape, and the AC itself was either on or off. The fan / blower setting would not work.
6. The security at the front was extremely unwelcoming and was chasing me and my car away, saying that he needs the front clear for the cars that come for weddings. The car park is a little further away down the hill. Park there, take a lift up two floors, walk to the lobby, take another lift up two floors to get to my room. On the second day, the lift was not working (with no visible notice on display), so I had to walk up and down.
7. Wifi password they gave us was wrong, and their answer was I had to turn off and on my device. When I complained further, they set it right on their side (we were right and they were wrong about the password - but they would not admit it)
8. The room safe deposit box was not working, and locked. Probably the batteries were dead.
9. Overall, the building was in need of maintenance. There were visible water leaks and damp areas, and some walls were covered in fungus and moss.
10. The premium price that I paid for this room was not worth the facilities or the experience.

Nothing
The hotel lights were clothed , reception left at 9:30 pm , security closed the hotel door from outside , the internet was not working, no hot water on shower , We ran out of drinking water and we couldn't get any because no receptionor or room service, the tiles on the room floor was broken. They did not put us in a better room despite the hotel being empty. The worst experience.

7.0 / 10.0
Good food and atmosphere. Rooms are old.
Pool is under construction
So not much to do.
8.0 / 10.0
Views from our room and the rooftop were breathtaking. Buffet was great, soup especially. The location of the hotel is very convenient, close to both Peradeniya and Kandy with buses as well as tuks available close by.
The pool on the rooftop is amazing, would have been perfect if the water was warmer for early morning or evening swims.
Need more sugar packets for the in room tea bags.
