This is the best hotel in Trincomalee. The staff are the loveliest, kindest staff, and they made our time there feel like home. The food is a choice of traditional Sri Lankan food as well as European/US, but they even made us egg hoppers on request.... Its that we're not on the menu. So I cannot praise them highly enough. We will return here.

We got a friendly greeting when we arrived and drinks brought to us on Reception. All staff are very friendly. The room was beautiful and very spacious. We had a junior suite and it was the best room I’ve ever stayed in. We were able to add room service and meals to our bill to pay by card when we checked out. There are ATM’s nearby if you want to get some cash. We gave tips at the end of our stay. It was helpful that the documentation from the hotel states that charges include a service charge so you aren’t expected to tip as you go along every day. There was a decent choice of room service meals, drinks and desserts available and these seemed to be available any time. They were reasonably priced - like UK prices but more than normal Sri Lanka prices. We just paid for room only as we thought we would be out and about a lot. We tried breakfast once at the hotel and it was alright. We had dinner once which again was alright. Room service meals were good. My daughter loved the milkshake and brownies. I would recommend getting a local SIM card from a small shop near the hotel. I got a ‘Hutch’ SIM card. I was surprised that the shop staff need to take a photo of your passport when you buy one. We could then access Google Maps and find attractions, etc nearby. The hotel was great with friendly staff and beautiful surroundings. You can walk to the beach in 5 mins. There are lots of stray dogs around but all seem friendly. The pool is nice at the hotel too. We loved it all!

4/10 Fair

Hotel is in desperate need of renovation. Many things in room broken or not working, e.g. kettle leaking, plugs not working, door handle of bathroom door almost falling off. Housekeeping standards well below expectation, amenities not replenished, e.g. shower gel, tissues, toilet paper. No visible management around the hotel.

The hotel staff were kind and attentive throughout our short stay. The room was clean and well appointed, and the view over the river was pleasant and a little different compared to more traditional sea views. I would happily recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in an above average hotel in Trincomalee. The only downside, as with many hotels in the area, is the direct surroundings are not so pleasant. Access to the hotel is made down a pot-holed dirt track. A tuk tuk or bicycle is necessary to make any excursions (but the hotel provide bikes for free, or more modern ones for a small charge)

Nicest of staff and serivce. Very relaxing spot.
Just the nicest and happiest of staff. We felt very welcomed. The room was comfy, a quiet spot on the river. Bed sheets and pillows were so soft. Had the place to ourselves due to low season, but i woule recommend anyone to come here at this time also. Weather and sun still great in the daytime. Would recommend the place to anyone and we are looking forward to returning one day.

2/10 Poor

The room was very poorly maintained and the walls were dirty. This made for a very unpleasant stay. Given the price point you should expect better quality rooms. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

What an amazing place to stay! I stayed here for four nights as a solo traveller and really enjoyed it. The hotel is stunning! The pool was perfect to lounge and relax by, complete with a bar with attentive servers. The rooms were beautiful, clean and spacious. I highly recommend getting one with the Jacuzzi tub overlooking the lagoon. The. Location was also great, the beach a mere 5 minute walk with several restaurants close by. I ate most meals at the hotel, and they were all wonderful, especially the local dishes. The best part of the hotel was the staff. They went above and beyond with friendliness and making sure your every need was met. I highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Trincomalee, I am already looking forward to staying here again!

I would stay again if in the area.
Really nice place to stay ran but really friendly people. We paid for an upgrade on arrival which was a nice thing to do although with it being out of session, and the hotel being quite some hotels would have done this automatically without charge. The cleanliness was of a good standard although the general condition is in need of some attention. On check in they offered a turn down service which didn’t happen, the rooms were cleaned quite late in the day so maybe they were short staffed. The pool was cloudy which is normally due to a filter issue or the wrong amount of chemicals. I told them and the next day it was a little better but not great, a couple of other guests mentioned this to me while around the pool. The room could do with a fresh lick of paint. Some little cherub had done some drawings on the wall and left some greasy prints. Apart from these minor things the place is great for a couple of days.
