Ratnapura hotels

Pros: very close to adam's peak

Pros: Great place to stay near Adam's Peak. Excellent service by the family that runs the place. The food is superb, actually one of the best meals I had in Sri Lanka was from this kitchen. Room was spacious and cozy.

Cons: Lights in the room could have been a little brighter.

Pros: Nice owner and location for Adam`s Peak is perfect. Ask the owner for a tour to the waterfall, should be beautiful to.

Pros: Very well located if you want to climb the Adam's peak.

Pros: The hospitality was outstanding. We were the only customers because it is off-season to visit Adam 's Peak in June, but also due to the attacks in general we did not see many tourists. Every demand was taken care with a big smile. The family owning the business but also the staff were extremely helpful and you see that it is sincere. On the first night we were invited at Madu's House and his mother cooked for us. It was lovely! I think if you are visiting this place it is to climb Adam's Peak and you will be staying for 1-3 days. The guesthosue has all the facilities you require for such activity. Nights were very quiet and restful. Breakfast was delicious. Madu prepared Sri Lankan breakfast for us as well. If you want to feel like home, this is definitely the right place.

Cons: I accidentally looked underneath the bed (looking for something that fell down) and it was quite dusty. Electricity might go off for short periods of time. For us it was no problem at all.

Pros: The host was very welcoming and friendly. The dinner and breakfast were one of the best we had in one month of Sri Lanka. Also the host was ready to help and inform us about all the things we asked! Great stay here :)

Pros: We had a very nice and comfortable stay at the Queens Ark hotel. The rooms were very clean and generous. Nimal was a very nice and attentive host. He organized for us a driver to the railway station in Hatton and he even prepared a snack for the nightly hike to the Adam's Peak. We definitely recommend this accommodation.

Pros: Hospitallity of staff, food and food! Some of the best cooking we have had in Sri Lanka. The guide associated with the hotel was also very good. Very good value for money.

Cons: Entrance way to place not inviting. However staff were incredibilly welcoming and friendly.

Pros: Food was beyond amazing. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. Great view and only a 5 min walk to the start of Adams Peak climb.

Pros: The host was super friendly and accommodating. Could not recommend Queensark enough. It has everything you need during your stay whilst climbing Adam’s Peak. The Dahl at dinner was the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka!!

Pros: The owner was super sweet and friendly, he really wanted us to have a lovely stay. It was a short stay, because we only stayed there to do Adams peak, but we were surprised by how comfortable it was. The room was HUGE, just as the beds, and the bathroom was also really nice and clean.

Cons: WiFi was really bad.

Pros: Very friendly staff and calm surrounding

Cons: Nothing to mention

Pros: Nimal was an amazing host who tried to fulfill all our wishes. To stay at his place felt very personal thanks to lots of great conversations we had with him and amazing food!

Pros: We stayed there briefly, but the stay exceeded my expectations. The beds weren't large, they were huge and warm blankets were provided. I felt sorry that I couldn't stay longer in the bed, as we were heading to Adam's Peak at 2 am... The dinner on arrival was very good and granted the strength necessary for climbing all the stairs to the peak.... and the location is perfect - some 5-10 min to the starting point

Pros: It doesn’t look like much from the outside and a bit hidden but it was super clean and great value for money. We had delicious dinner on the first night and a good hearty breakfast after our hike up Adams Peak. We were picked up from Hatton train station, but we didn’t expect it, so that was a pleasant surprise. After the Easter Sunday bombing they gave us good advice and arranged a taxi for us to our next destination, to avoid the trains that day. Really helpful!

Pros: Perfect location for climbing adams peak. Was met off the bus by owner to help with our bags. Dinner was so nice that we extend our stay just to have another one. Breakfast was lovely and ready for us once we returned from our hike along with a hot drink. We were unlucky with the weather but still really enjoyed our stay. Family were lovely, very welcoming

Cons: Found the pillows very hard but this is not uncommon in Sri Lanka

Pros: Friendly family, great dinner and breakfast. Good localization

Pros: The nicest host family we had during our stay in Sri Lanka! The Mom even let us watch/help her prepare the dinner which was delicious!

Cons: There is nothing to complain about.

Pros: The location is perfect for climbing Adams Peak. The people were very friendly and helpful and prepared food whenever needed.

Cons: The room felt a bit dirty and dated, found some cockroaches and several insects in the room. The towels provided were really worn down.

Pros: Very kind madam host, which prepared for us delicious dinner. Breakfast was ready after return from Adams Peak.

Pros: A lovely homestay with a huge vegetable garden, where you have a great view at Adam's Peak itself! The hosts were very friendly and besides that amazing cooks! We literally had the best dinner here of entire Sri Lanka, made with fresh vegetables from their own garden!

Cons: The wifi was very slow, however for us not a big problem.

Pros: Best place during my staying in Sri Lanka, and best food! We had best dinner in our trip!! She is a big cook!!! Everything super clean and the garden is amazing!! Super recommended!!

Cons: Everything was perfect!!

Pros: Huge free breakfast. Good coffee. Hot shower in a uniquely tiled bathroom, perfect for after the trek. Knowledgeable hosts usually do the walk too! Good location to start the trek from. Great value for money

Cons: Dinner was expensive and there was too much food for 2 people, could have done with half the amount for half the cost.

Pros: The dinner and the breakfast was very nice but more expensive than we expected. Make sure to ask in advance.

Cons: The room was not as appears in the pictures! The bed was missing some bed sheets, we just had the blankets and the pillow covers were not fresh. We asked for towels and they gave us two hand towels, really old and with spots, so we asked for another towel. The bathroom was full of mosquitos and with low hot water pressure. The hosts did not seem so helpful. To us it seems they already got good score and they dont't care so much anymore about guests. Not good value for money!

Pros: Staff is really friendly and very clean rooms, delicious breakfast

Pros: We absolutely loved our stay! We were greeted with a very warm welcome from Jayaram and his family! They were celebrating his daughters birthday and invited us to enjoy some cake. It felt like we were instantly accepted into the family. The food at the guesthouse was delicious and very reasonable priced, cooked by Jayaram and his wife. The view on the balcony of Adam's Peak, the tea plantation and reservoir provide a view scenic and peaceful atmosphere. Although 2km (a very easy walk or tuk tuk ride) away from Adam's Peak and the more tourist area of Dalhousie, we preferred this location instead as it it is pushed away from the noise and more busier area of Dalhousie.

Pros: The staff at Supash went over and above to provide for us during our stay - I requested a surprise birthday cake for one of us and they organised an entire party!! The food was absolutely delicious too.

Cons: My bed was a bit uncomfortable, however the other bed in our room was perfectly comfortable.

Pros: Delicious food. Very friendly and helpful host. A bit further from Adam's Peak, about 10 minutes by tuktuk, but much better place to stay than Nallathaniya. Quiet, green, and nice view from the terrace. Also a small shop nextdoor. We really enjoyed our stay!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: - Amazing, kind host family that went above and beyond to help us when we needed it! - Good food in the restaurant - Nice, comfortable room and bathroom - Beautiful rooftop with view of trees, tea plantation, lake - Good value

Cons: - We went to hike Adam’s Peak and it might’ve been easier to just get a hotel right near Adam’s Peak - Food took a while to prepare, try to order in advance

Pros: Property was an economical option for us. Beds were basic with average mattresses and very old pillows. Linen was old but clean though only a bottom sheet was supplied with a blanket. Food was plentiful and cheap for lunch and dinner. The host family were attentive and helpful in organising tuk tuks as well as making tea for us to prepare for our 2.00am walk up Adams Peak

Cons: Old linen and especially pillows need to be replaced.

Pros: The owner was helpful and the location is good - close to the start of the climb. The owner organised a tuk tuk for us for 2am to get to the base of the mountain, and also made sure we got on the correct bus to get to the train station.

Cons: Beds were hard, but if you're only sleeping for a few hours before climbing Adam's Peak, it's fine.

Pros: - The surrounding are is nice. You can walk through the tea fields. - The food is good - The bathroom is clean - They have a terrace on top, with a nice view over the tea fields.

Cons: - The bedsheets don’t get changed or washed when there’s a new guest. - The owner is quite pushy when asking for a review: he asked us in person, his son asked us in person and then the owner sent us multiple messages the following two days after we left asking for a feedback. I finally blocked his phone number because it was getting creepy as half pf the messages were unintelligible and we couldn’t understand what else he wanted from us. - It’s quite far from Adam’s peak. - You can find something closer to Adam’s peak and cheaper.

Pros: Jeyaren and his family were very welcoming. It all started with a free welcome-tea. The room with attached bathroom was big and clean. The food was very delicious and I could asked for a second round. Jeyaren also took me for a walk on the lake with some great views. The night was fine without any noises. I went to Adam‘s Peak the other morning at 2:30 am. Jeyaren was already awake and prepared me a coup of tea and a sandwich. He then drove me to the starting point and when I came back, he picked me up again. In the afternoon I did a tour with him and his son to 2 nice waterfalls. I really enjoyed my stay at Subash hotel and can recommend it for sure!

Pros: Free transport to Adam’s peak. Even though we decided not to, the owner said we could stay beyond checkout after the climb. We were lent a torchlight for the climb. Mosquito nets and safe provided.

Cons: The rooms were very very damp which gave them a slightly funny smell. No free toiletries when it says they are provided. Food took a long time to come.

Pros: One recommendation to owners of hotel: guys, add heaters to all rooms, it is critical, all clothes after climbing are wet. So, with heaters it would 10 of 10

Cons: No heaters in rooms

Pros: perfect location, warm hosts, very nice room and great breakfast after the hike

Pros: Right at the way climbing Adam's Peak. The facilities are good, staffs are friendly. Breakfast is included, after climbing Adam.

Cons: Not much, but we can't take a shower after climbing because there was no hot water, we havr to wait 1 hour for hot water.

Pros: Such nice people ‘

Pros: Location is very good, just at the beginning of the peak, which I can tell you is pretty convenient (you don’t want to walk 5km after that climb...), room is big, bathroom too and hot water is really appreciated in this area. Staff is awesome too, big up to them thank you guys !

Cons: Wifi did not work at all and it misses some chairs/tables to chill outside !

Pros: Great value! Really nice and spacious bedroom. Very close to the start of the hike. There's a small shop nearby to buy snacks also. The dinner was very good, as well as the breakfast (included). The staff was really nice. They lended us torches and booked a cab back for us. Shower with hot water, which was great after the hike.

Cons: WiFi didn't work!!

Pros: Excellent clean place if you want to walk to Adams Peak. Only 200 m to starting point. If you are not walking Adams Peak I would not go there.

Cons: No hot water.

Pros: All the staff is very nice, smiling and helpfull! Our room was big, very clean, as the bathroom (with hotwater and great pressure). The food was excellent and generous. Parking just at the back of the hotel. Only 3 minutes walking till the starting point of Adam's Peak hike! We highly recommend this place.

Cons: Very little way of imrprovment (because otherwise everything was perfect!): we told them that in the future they could hang a little net on the small holes at the top of the windows, or a mosquito net on the bed, to avoid some mosquitos intrusion, but we are sure they will do it very shortly!

Pros: The staff were very helpful

Cons: The shower was difficult to operate

Pros: The staff is very nice and welcoming. They speak very good English and had a lot of tipps for us. Also we could use their flashlights for the hike up Adams Peak. The dinner and breakfast both were very yummy. The location is perfect for going up Adams Peak. Keep it the way it is :)

Cons: Nothing, everything was very good :)

Pros: Enjoyed the best view of the Saptha Kanya Mountain range and Lakshapana waterfall from the hotel lobby. You can even see the city of Colombo if the weather condition is good. Hotel is really feels like home. Owner and helping staff are really nice. Food is also so tasty.

Cons: Can not accommodate large families since the hotel have only 2 rooms. Bathroom of one room have some problem with water drainage but owner promised to fix it soon.

Pros: The tea served upon arrival was amazing, I had my instant noodles prepared they added an omelet to that free of charge. Owner is very nice and accomdative. I love the view from bedroom, dining area and common space everything was well maintained and very pleasant.

Pros: Great room with amazing views! The staff were so welcoming and really made my visit very enjoyable. Very good value for money and most importantly the room was clean.

Cons: WiFi connection could be better but can’t complain :)

Pros: After 3 month travelling through Sri Lanka, we can say this is by large THE BEST place we have stayed. Views from the room and from the terrace are astonishing (virgin mountains and a beautiful waterfall) Room is clean, cozy and comfortable. Fresh temperature day and night (like heaven!) Shared living is cool and make you feel as in home. Kitchen is available for preparing your own meals. Caretaker will provide you delicious food if you prefer not cooking at a very good price (also good tea). Room rate is really very reasonable. We went walking from the Villa to Laxapana waterfall which is an amazing natural wonderwall (we even swam there). Oh, we did not go to Adam's Peak, but is really close spot. We have been travelling all around the country, and we can afirm is not easy at all to find something like that. You have here probably best nature area of the country, and you will not find this in travel guides, so this area is not touristic, and that is another plus to go there.

Cons: If you like nature, calm and relax, this is heaven for you!!

Pros: Excellent place to stay.Nature looking was amazing.highly recommend.

Pros: The staff are amazing. Seems to be a family run business and the sister of the brother (owner) simply is a gem. She advises on the walk and where to go from etc. Really really helpful. The food cooked fresh is also a must.. really tasty! Only downside for me personally was that they dont sell cold water. All the bottles are lukewarm. They will provide ice if you ask.

Cons: Dangerous in the bathroom as no bath mat and the showers are like a wet room. Really slippy when you come out and then into the wooden flooring. Also NO air conditioning and no fan... I kept the curtains shut all day to try and keep the room cool. No fridge in your room to keep anything cool... such as water etc.

Pros: The staff and room were amazing!

Cons: Nothing :)

Pros: Slightly Chilled was all we needed for a comfortable night's stay before climbing Adam's Peak. It is what you'd expect of somewhere out in the sticks with most guests only staying for one night i.e functional and certainly not luxurious! However, the staff were extremely helpful, breakfast and dinner were tasty and exceeded our expectations (we especially liked the surprise American pancake!) and the room was clean and spacious.

Cons: It is a bit shabby around the edges but no more so than what you'd expect for the price and location.

Pros: We liked the service and the good food. Perfect base for hiking adams peak. Cute hostess

Cons: The hygiene in the badroom could be better.

Pros: A comfortable stop over for climbing Adam's peak. The staff was very friendly and gave us great advice on how to prepare for our journey to Adam's peak. Breakfast was really good.

Pros: My friend and i were lucky to find such a comfortable and clean place to stay that is so close to Adams Peak. Mahi, the concierge was really welcoming, helpful and enthusiastic. She also gave us good advice in regards to things to do in the area. We decided to try the buffet dinner and we were not disappointed. There was a large variety of Sri Lankan cuisine that was so tasty. All the staff were so friendly.

Cons: I don't have any complaints

Pros: The rooms were spacious, cool, and had a great view. The whole resort had great views. The front desk staff were nice. The dinner was reasonable, the breakfast was great (best scrambled eggs I've had in Sri Lanka). The warm shower that I had was perfect (but again, if I came back from that hike to cold water I can't imagine how upset I would be...)

Cons: The bathroom floor could have used a wipe down. The first day (after the hike) the shower was awesome - good pressure, warm, heavenly. But the next night they had less guests (and didn't do the buffet, for example). When we got up to leave early in the morning neither my friend nor I had ANY hot water. I am pretty sure they turned the heat off that night due to lack of guests. It was pretty irritating - I didn't ultimately have a full shower before a day of traveling because it was freezing- but I can say if that was what I came back to after the hike I would have been very upset. The nice shower is one of the main draws here. Finally, I am a woman who was staying in a room alone. The day after the hike a male employee knocked on my door and offered me a fresh roll of toilet paper. I took it and then he offered me a leg massage. I asked if that was something they offered at the resort (thinking maybe my friend and I would go get massages after lunch) but he was indicating to come into my room. I said no. Later my (male) friend was offered another roll of toilet paper... but no leg massage. It didn't really bother me, but wasn't professional.

Pros: Good timeous food & tea. Friendly, helpful & communicative staff. Clean & tidy.

Cons: Toilet not practical

Pros: Staff were absolutely incredible! So friendly and the food was fantastic . Location was perfect for Adams Peak, with a guide provided by the hotel . Would highly recommend

Pros: The staff were super friendly and helpful. The meal was delicious and the view of Adams Peak was incredible. It was also close to the start of the hike to Adams Peak. It was really quiet too so we were able to sleep from 7pm to 1:30am when we got up to climb the mountain.

Pros: Very unique decor, jungle like but with amenities. The owner and staff are helpful and friendly, quiet location.

Cons: The rooms are a bit worn, maintenance is lacking. Sporadic WiFi in room, low water pressure. Resort is difficult to find but nice quiet location.

Pros: Tasty food for a good price

Cons: Not all staff members spoke English, no wifi in the room, a bit dark rooms

Pros: The ambience of the place is awesome - all "Ratnapura" like & millions of little touches done in the property by the owners. Very kind & friendly staff who welcomed us & organised even a room for our drive with no extra charge. Nice breakfast & reasonable prices for accomodation & all the meals on the menu. Would definitely stay again for longer.

Cons: Little "off the beaten track" - it gives the place the ambience, but harder to look for as markings are hard to see at night. Maaaaany mosquitos - make sure you have a Mortein :)

Pros: A quiet place and friendly staff. They were assisting us whenever we needed.

Cons: Property was not maintained properly. Leaks in bath rooms, uncleaned bathroom mirrors, bathroom was unable to lock.

Pros: Nice rooms, friendly staff, very green campus, made to order food- they served good Indian veg food, they gave complementary driver accomodation

Cons: About 3-4 kms away from Rathnpura town-

Pros: Dilshan was extremely helpful, kind , genuine and informative. His tours are above and beyond anything expected. He went out of his way to show us around, drive us around and organise looking at gemstones. The facilities were excellent with a comfortable mattress and everything you need- very arty, quaint and with peaceful mountain and forest surroundings. Dilshan will treat you like a family member and we were impressed with the food (best we had in Sri Lanka). A lovely family and one of the best people we met in the whole country. You won't regret your stay here!!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: Quirky decor but good, interesting.

Cons: No cold Lion beer waiting for us on arrival - soon rectified.

Pros: where it is situated

Cons: it did not have easy excess to the town because it was situated in the bush

Pros: Dilsham the owner is an amazing guy and now a good friend! he showed me around the area, and introduced me to all the right people i need to complete my project on the sapphire mining. the hotel is so unique and styled, def up there with the best i've stayed at. the beds are comfy and look visually awesome...4 poster natural looking!! amazing breakfest and location. will be staying here every time. if you want to know about gems, learn about gems...and be surrounded by people who love gems (including the guests!!!! - all gem dealers when i stayed there!)

Pros: The hosts are kind and welcoming. They run a shop that was open when we left for the hike at 2am so we could get water. The location is a 5 minute walk from the base of the peak. The resturant had delicious food that prepared us and helped us recover.

Pros: The excellent location. It was very close to the path to the ascent of Adam's Peak. And the host was welcoming.

Cons: All was good.

Pros: Nice place to stay and relax before climbing the 5200 stairs of Adam’s Peak. Really close from the departure of the walk (about 5-10 min walking distance). Hot shower available and really enjoyable after the walk

Pros: I was not in hotel soo long so its not a problem for me

Cons: If they can put a partition to avoid sound fr down stairs that would be more comfortable. And fan if required

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Good staff clean room

Pros: The room and the bathroom were clean. Good internet connection.

Cons: From outside looks no so good, but the room was actually fine

Pros: No windows in the room, so you can go sleep before sunset and sleep well before going to Adam's peak for a sunrise.

Cons: No windows in the room, small rooms.

Pros: We went to Adams Peaks. It was good

Cons: Location

Pros: Great family. Very helpful, we arrived late and they were waiting out front for us as its located above a little shop and restaurant (which is very handy if you're doing Adams peak) and can be hard to find at night. But very close to start of Adams peak great bed and clean room + warm shower! Would stay again

Pros: Bed was great, really comfy with mosquito nets. The place looks a little dingy from the outside but actually is much better on the inside. Staff are so lovely, bathroom a tad smelly but the room was great. Perfect for one night if you’re doing Adam’s Peak!

Pros: The main house is attractive-looking both inside and out, although some of the furniture is a little old, broken and tired-looking (the mirrors in particular). The new-build is still under renovation, as far as I could tell. The rooms were exceptionally spacious and very well furnished with all the mod-cons including a very high tech spa-bath. The AC was pleasingly quiet. The food was cooked fresh and was superb. The staff and Manager were very friendly, courteous and professional and treated me like a VIP. I didn't use the pool, but it did look beautifully clean and inviting.

Cons: I watched Discovery and BBC News, but would have liked an English movie channel on TV.

Pros: This city does not has tourists at all

Pros: Rooms are really big and comfortable, bathroom really comfortable

Cons: It’s good place to stay, unfortunately no customers, they have to do marketing

Pros: Food was amazing and there was vrey friendly, Also specially thanks for The lshara and Mario..

Cons: Bathroom was not clean properly bath tub super dirty.

Pros: The hostel is literally at the start of Adams Peak climb (no exaggeration). Showers are warm which was nice after a long climb in the rain. You get a breakfast when you return from your climb (it was ok nothing too delicious). Staff were qfriendly and helpful when I could find them

Cons: Staff were a bit hard to find at times (although friendly). Breakfast was nice but could be better.

Pros: The host was extremely nice and made us a good breakfast. The location is the highlight because its so close to the start point of Adams peak.

Cons: The Room was a bit humidity. The facilities were really used.

Pros: The location is just besides the entrance of Adam’s peak. The host was helpful and responded quickly. The breakfast was good and served in a big portion.

Pros: Friendly staff and the best location possible for Adam’s Peak.

Pros: Simple and adequate rooms. great location for the walk. Good breakfast. Over value for money. Great and friendly staff

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location for adams peak was perfect! The start of the walk is outside the front door. The food were good and our host was very friendly. The room was really big, including a bath with hot water, two (comfortable) beds and a TV.

Cons: The door of the bath couldnt be closed completely, but that's being extra picky.

Pros: The place was very clean, and the location is perfect. Right at the start of the Adam's Hike trail. The breakfast was nothing fancy, but it was perfect. It was also very kind of them to offer us coffee and tea upon our arrival. Overall, excellent value for price. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to hike up to Adam's Peak.

Pros: We were warmly received, our host even cooked us dinner although we arrived late. Clean and nice rooms:) perfectly located directly by the beginning of the stairs. Our host was so kind and nice, really helpful and with good advices on our side. Thank you, it was really nice:) highly recommended

Pros: Awesome dinner and delicious breakfast served after we came back. Thanks again!

Cons: -

Pros: Good location next to Adam's peak. Although we had rooms with "windows" not direct to road it wasnt quiet place (big problem for all accomodations next to road). Owner served perfect late breakfast (fruits, toast, jam, butter, egg pancake) when we returned back from Adams Peak.

Cons: Very small rooms with hot showers just for short evening sleep before night climb to Adams Peak.

Pros: The location is excellent to go to Adam's Peak, early by walking, also the breakfast was delicious, staff was friendly and helpful

Cons: None

Pros: very friendly and helpful staff. delicious breakfast!

Pros: Owner excellent, very help full, pick us up after Adams peak trek, drive us to Kandy for a fair price , breakfast brilliant

Cons: Nil

Pros: Central location. Good breakfast with great fruit.

Cons: The rooms are all off the dining/main area so noise can be an issue, especially for when people may be rising/leaving early.

Pros: First and most importantly- breakfast. It was honestly the nicest we have had in any of our home stays yet. After a big hike it was even better. Staff were lovely and the location was great. Perfect for your overnight stop before Adam’s peak.

Pros: I liked the remoteness and quietness a lot. Also the design itself

Cons: Price

Pros: Unbelievable jungle resort that feels like a abandoned Maya Temple... You’ve gotta see this! Must-do in Sri Lanka!!

Pros: Anand Edward is a gem of s host. Great sense of humour and warm as a person. It’s really a place to see.

Pros: Awesome place, if you want to visit Sinharaja Rain Forrest - check this place! One of the most special places you can visit in Sri Lanka: built into the jungle, merged with nature in a totally unique way, architecture which is a must see. Super nice host that helps you with everything needed! Strong recommendation

Cons: Nothing really

Pros: Cool building

Cons: Very outdated

Pros: it was a absolutely wonderful location. could not think such place exists until you climb few steps to the resort.

Cons: some areas are rally slippery. Be careful.....

Pros: Fantastic location. We really loved being able to spot monkeys, birds and other wildlife over breakfast and be serenaded by frogs at dinner. The staff were very friendly and organised some memorable trips for us.

Pros: Terrible rooms. A lot of noisy smelly and disgusting toilets

Cons: Room , breakfast was nasty

Pros: - great location for Adam's peak - nice view

Cons: - bathroom - shower near the toillet so everything was wet

Pros: Within walking distance to the beginning of Adams peak, restaurants within 50m, super friendly staff and comfortable accommodation

Cons: Can be noisy at night due to the really central location

Pros: The proximity to Adam's Peak and to the town is great! The room and bathroom are very spacious but there's a lot of noise coming in from the hallway and outside. Breakfast was good. The watermelon juice was delicious!

Cons: They asked for payment during check-in. The payment they demanded did not match the US$ amount in my Booking.com reservation. They wanted an additional 6.5% for "currency exchange" to rupees. After some talking, they agreed on us paying US$ as per our reservation. When wanting to go hike Adam's Peak at 2AM, I discovered that the front doors are locked! Luckily, I found a sleeping staff who directed me to a side door for exit. I wish they would have told me that at check-in! The hallways are big and echo a lot. There is A LOT of noise coming from the kitchen and staff talking in the hallways. There's also a lot of noise coming from the market (music, chants, etc.) It's very disruptive. Despite having booked for 2 people occupancy with breakfast, they wanted to charge me for the second person at breakfast. In the end, we didn't need to pay for the second person.

Pros: The staff were lovely and tried their best to help us, even with the language barrier. Very clean and comfortable facilities. Great location

Cons: Slightly older linen and towels however extremely comfortable bed.

Pros: Perfect location for Adam’s Peak.

Cons: You can tell that it is a fairly new hotel. They need to concentrate on getting the simple things right.

Pros: The hotel is perfectly located for Adam's Peak. Basic facilities and breakfast are fine for one night.

Cons: Noisy siren outside. Hotel will organise a taxi for you but agree price in advance - we paid 500 rupee deposit to the hotel and were then overcharged by the driver on arrival.

Pros: The staff were very friendly... always with a smiley face. It is a very simple place... but ok for a few hours of sleep. The breakfast should be better!

Pros: The location was great, 5mins away from the bottom of Adams peak and the room was clean

Cons: The food was not nice especially the breakfast which was disgusting. Service was a little odd! Think maybe that was partly down to language barrier but still not great. The shower didn't work properly and there wasn't hot water. Was very noisy with the call to prayer right next to the hotel. Whilst our room was clean the rest of the hotel was a bit grotty and there were dead bugs on the floor.

Pros: Great breakfast and location, staff nice and willing to help.

Cons: Wifi did not work at all, there was only cold water in one of the rooms.

Pros: Very friendly and helpfull staff, they helped us with organization of our trip and arranged fast tuk tuk:) great location for hike to Adam's peak

Pros: Nice and clean room, very close to the start of the climb (adam’s peak). I would have put 10 if the breakfast was nicer

Cons: Breakfast a bit light after a big climb : toasts half omelet pretty bad coffee... ( please change it for the next people coming ) but with a banana juice ! Internet is very very slow...

Pros: Stafe was soo nice and so friendly. Very helpful for us.

Pros: We were looking for a place near to Adams peak since we wanted to climb it during the night. The place was perfect for it. Not far from the startong point for the mountain, so a great deal for the price.

Pros: Its worth more than its rate on booking! The place is clean and very close to Adams peak, specially for an early start! Nice staff, quite helpful even though we arrived late!

Cons: Unfortunatly there is only one plug in the room, we should have brought an extension! Breakfast wasn't particularly amazing but still satisfying after a long hike..

Pros: Good position for start of Adams Peak. Good breakfast

Pros: Super nice location near the start of the wonderful Adam's Peak tour! Very nice hosts. Breakfast was filling and good.

Cons: Double bed was a bit cozy for two people but still alright

Pros: Location is the only great thing about this property. Close to the Adam's peak, the market and the bus stand.

Cons: I informed that I will have late check-in time because of the bus from Hatton did not go on time. However, they kept calling and asking what time I will arrive. Staff was rude and was not nice, tried to cheat by saying the cost of the room was 3800 while in fact, as quoted by booking.com its around 3400. In the next day, he knocked on the door and asked me to leave impolitely cos they say it is a check out time. Very disappointed, you can just tell me in a polite way. Once I entered the room I saw a big cockroach on my bed and the guy picked it and threw that away. Too late, I noticed what was it.

Pros: The staff was really great,we were feeling like home,tgey were so nice and kind!!!!!

Pros: Really perfect staff,they treated us as kings!!! Very nice people :)

Pros: Service, location and food was great..

Cons: Wish they have added a TV to deluxe rooms. Bathrooms are bit congested but ok.

Pros: It is in a great place to start the hike to Adam's Peak. Room had a great view.

Cons: The food was very ordinary. We ordered rice and curry and there was very little flavour and no heat. Paid for an air-conditioned room but told on arrival that it didn't work. Luckily we did not need it. Breakfast was also pretty ordinary.

Pros: Loverly room with very comfortable bed.

Pros: We had a great stay at Daddy's Guest Home during our short overnight trip to Adam's Peak. The room was very clean and comfortable with AC, warm water etc. The location was excellent -- you can't get much closer to the trail head! The food was delicious: authentic, tasty Sri Lankan food made to order in the small restaurant in the hotel. And of course Adam's Peak was phenomenal - probably my favorite part of the trip!

Pros: Best location to do Adam’s peak, it’s basically at the entrance so you don’t need to wake up any earlier than necessary! Breakfast was included and was super yummy, all other food we had there was also great. Staff were very helpful and the room suited us well!

Pros: Closest accommodation to Adams peak and compared to others we looked at it was the nicest too. We were asked on arrival if we wanted to upgrade to the larger room and it was 100% worth it - would recommend booking this room as it is a lot more spacious and has plenty of natural light and windows. Staff are very friendly and always happy to help

Cons: Nothing to do with this accommodation however the Adams peak area is like a ghost town in the off season

Pros: Very well located to the start of the Adams Peak trail and the town itself. The staff were fantastic and the food was great, even provided a breakfast to take on the climb up to Adams Peak which was left outside our door for the early start. Nice view from the hotel dinning room.

Cons: The hotel is a bit old and tired, very small room with a very cramped bathroom that had a pedestal hand basin with no bench space and a hot water heater that was not up to the challenge - luke warm shower with low pressure. Not enough power points. Noisy neighbours from hotel next door kept us awake.

Pros: -near to Adams Peak -squirrels playing around

Cons: -mold / musty smell in the room, afterwards I had to wash all clothes! -room was very dark -balcony with a view on another high building just 5 meter away... -breakfast was under average -much overpriced for such a standard... -tried to charge 3% extra for payment with a visa credit card -unfair exchange USD -> LKR. I paid with 180 instead of 175 like everywhere else

Pros: 200m away from the beginning of the path for Adam's Peak. Very friendly personnel, good breakfast.

Pros: The location is superb for Sri Pada pilgrimage because buses to Nallathanniya stop right in front of PMD Hotel and it's also the closest guesthouse from the path up the mountain. Good value if you're planning to just sleep for a couple of hours before the hike and recover from it in a (hot) shower afterwards before moving on.

Cons: There was a wifi provided but it didn't really work in our room which was in the upper corner of the building. There was no mosquito net and the bathroom window is just a metal mesh without a glass keeping only everything bigger than squirrels out, so it pays off to keep the bathroom door closed at all times to avoid getting stung excessively. Also some little nuisances, like no trash bin in the room or no soap bar in the bathroom affected the overall experience, but as a whole this place is still good value for all pilgrims.

Pros: If your main goal is to hike Siripada this location is the most ideal: right next to the Siripada trail and right in front of the bus halt and car parks. The rooms were clean. The staff were friendly. Overall good value for money

Cons: Nothing major. Initially wasn’t the easiest to figure out where the hotel was but people around knew and were helpful. Once the location is set everything was alright. The phone number might need updating.

Pros: Place was clean and situated just at the bus stop nallathanniya.ideal location to begin the journey.staff was friendly.

Cons: - Not actual room photos - Balcony View not good for the paid price, Actually the wash rooms are on balcony thats all, but the price is higher than the other rooms

Pros: Close 5 minutes away from Adam’s Peak climbing start, friendly manager, clean, they have private shower, we liked the stay

Cons: For this price there is nothing to complain about :)

Pros: The hotel is located exactly at the beginning of the path to the Adam's Peak and near the bus station of Delhousie. Simple but nice room to start the hike to Adam's Peak at 2am and get some sleep before that. Checkout can be done after the hike.

Cons: A bit loud if you try to sleep before 9pm.

Pros: Right next to the path to Adams Peak. Friendly staff.

Cons: Doors impossible to lock, holes in windows, toilet not flushing, no trash bin in the room

Pros: Very near

Cons: Small bath room

Pros: It was the perfect location when you want to go on climb-trip on Adams Peak. Owner was very kind, gave us all information about Adams Peak and bus schedule.

Cons: There was no key from room, just the lock.

Pros: Strategic location. There are restaurants open 24/7 while we were there. Also cheap souvenirs along the street. When you forget to bring fleece, can buy here only USD3-5. Bus station is like in front of the hotel. Very close to starting path to Adam's peak. You can see Adam's peak from your rear terrace during sunny days.

Cons: Blanket was not provided. No amenities, only thin towel. Hot water shower with weak water pressure. Not able to flow when other guest having shower, not enough pressure for the heater to work. Wifi available but weak signal, sometime lost. The router is at the landlord room downstairs.

Pros: Good location for Sri pada. Helpful staff. Really nice Sri Lankan dinner

Cons: Some ants in the bathroom, but this was resolved quickly and is to be expected in a tropical country.

Pros: The location was a few minutes away from Adam’s peak entrance. Well sized clean room. Serves its purpose just fine for a place to crash before heading to Adam’s peak

Cons: The shower didn’t have much warm water but was ok.

Pros: Very close to start of Adams peak trail. Clean and comfy for the price. Nice staff

Pros: Basic room. Good to stay one night to climb adam's peak.

Cons: Could be cleaner.

Cons: Small beds, only one electricity connection in room.

Pros: Location, staff the food was excellent.

Cons: Although the towels seemed a bit worn out. But I would go back again.

Pros: Hotel is centrally located, especially if you want to climb Adam's Peack. Personel is very helpfull and customer oriented, they make all their possible to make you enjoy the stay. The restaurant serves tasty breakfasts and local meals. Rooms are big, clean and comfortable. A very good place to stay near Adams Peack.

Cons: Missing towels, hard bed and noisy place

Pros: Clean, comfortable and very close to the start of the hike. The manager arranged a transfer from Green View to Midigama, which was extremely relaxing and comfortable.

Cons: Very close to the main road, which was very noisy with lots of traffic in the evening.

Pros: Do not follow the Google map location since its wrong. Call the property and the staff will tell you how to get there. Reached there around 7 and everything looked great. Nice clam area away from the town centre. Large clean room. Well maintained rooms and gardens.

Cons: Everything was going great until I get a call from the reception around 9.40am telling me to check out at 10 or I'll have to pay extra 1500/= rupees. And when I checked the app it was showing that check out is from 9 to 11. I talked to the owner again and he said 11 is the late checkout time. We did however checked out around 10.30 and owner did not add any extra fees. Apart from this isolated incident property was very well maintained and looked very promising.

Pros: We were the only guests present for our 3 night stay here, however that did not stop the staff from giving us their full attention. The owner organised a trip for us to Udawalawe National Park by taxi and was happy to arrange a Tuk Tuk wherever necessary. The rooms were large and airy with nice views across the highlands. A lovely seating area is present outside too.

Cons: The only downside was that it is about a half hour walk into town, however easy to complete by Tuk Tuk.

Pros: I was lost and a guy came to guide me in. The food was good for me. Coffee not too bad in the morning.

Cons: Hotel category 2 stars max.

Pros: Really friendly. Cold towel and welcome drink on arrival. Bags taken to our room. Quiet location and beautiful grounds.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A place from another time - the hotel was almost empty, all the services were there but obviously not used very much. So it did have a bit of an abandoned feeling. The pool was absolutely clean - but birds did nest in the sunshades at the side of the pool, so must have not been moved for a very long time. The breakfast was plentiful and nice - but again, sitting alone in a former grand dining room (with white piano!) does feel a bit odd. It certainly is good value for money as the rooms are huge and well laid out, the beds are comfortable.

Pros: Hospitality was great, from Check-in to Check-out. They were ready to help, and went the extra mile to help!

Cons: It was a nice place overall, but being vegetarian we had very few food options. But the staff was helpful enough to make some nice vegetarian sandwiches for us.

Pros: VERY friendly staff - excellent vegetarian curry.

Pros: Nice hotel in the middle of private large garden with clean swimming pool and very friendly staff. We have been there ALONE! Perfect relax after 2 weeks travelling before way back to Europe.

Pros: Calm and quiet surrounding, ideal place for bird watching. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Cons: Water pressure in wash room was not sufficient specially the hot water. Any way we could manage.

Pros: The property is situated in a calm and quiet environment. It is surrounded by trees and a middle sized pond, where guests can experience the nature.

Cons: Indoor environment is not pleasant. Poor WiFi coverage for the rooms. Limited dinning options and they serve set menus only.

Pros: The environment

Cons: The mattress is old...so its curves when sleeps

Pros: My wife and i stayed there for a 01 night. We were looking for something quiet yet charming and this hotel completely fulfilled.
