Traveller reviews

“This is a must have if you are in Pinnawala”
07 Jan 2025
The staff was very kind and helpful, they were always smiling. I expected that this hotel will be less good based on former reciews, but I was surprised in a positive way. However when we arrived there was some leftover food in the fridge, it was inmediately cleaned up when we noted it via whatsup, and the bedsheets and towels were clean, which is the most important, and unfortunately not at all considered as the bare minimum as we later experienced in an other hotel. Here the barhroom was well equiped, and I was amazed that the corridor in front of our room was so private, no crowds were allowed to that space, so we could have a very relaxing experience while watching the elephants. The breakfast was very diverse, containing multiple items from both the western and local cuisin. Regarding the three hotels where we stayed in Sri Lanka, this was far away the best, I am very happy that we did not miss this wonderful opportunity out because of the influence of bad reviews. Speaking of which, I would like to highlight that yes, it is true that some of the elephants (approximately 5-6) are chained while they are in the bay, but it is not to attract the tourists but to avoid potential accidents because those elephants are a little stubborn, as quoted from the informative broschure found in our room. We saw that one of the chained elephants broke out but it did not even try to escape, it just went closer to a greener area to eat and chill there, so I really would like to believe that all elephants are kept in good circumstances. The pool was also very nice, we spent there one of our afternoons, and most likely all the other tourists decided to visit the elephant park on that day, so for about 3-4 hours we were the only guests at the pool, from where we had a perfect view to the elephant bathing bay. There is a taxi / travel counter next to the reception, we booked a driver there for a day to take us to Sigiriya and Dambulla.

“All about the experience!!”

An absolute must stay location for the elephant watching in the river. Able to participate with the elephants in the river.

30 Oct 2024
Such a beautiful spot on the river. The elephants come through at about 8.30-11am right past the hotel. Just outside our bedroom they were all there in the river being bathed and was amazing to sit on the balcony and watch them away from the crowds. Breakfast was amazing! The local guide Andrew told us about a local waterfall and his colleague even showed us where to go. Very helpful staff and an incredible spot
