“Slechts voor 1 nacht maar wat een heerlijk hotel. Het zwembad is prachtig, alles goed schoon en weten was ook goed, zowel ontbijt als diner. Zou er meteen weer naartoe gaan. Ook mooie aankleding en fijne sfeerverlichting, dat zie je niet overal in Sri Lanka. Kan niks noemen wat beter zou kunnen. We waren ook nog eens de enige gasten dus koninklijk gevoel”
“We had a wonderful stay at Yala Hotel River Front. The room was spacious and our breakfast was really good. The safaris they organized for us were really fun and having a pool to cool off in after was really nice.. I would recommend staying here if visiting Yala.”
“We stayed here for a few days to go to Yala National Park and Hotel Elephant Eye was a great location for taking a SAFARI Tour. The owner is very friendly and the staff are very hardworking. The property is very well maintained. Room was clean and comfortable. We had breakfast in the restaurant. Easy walk or Tuk tuk to town for restaurants and grocery stores.”
“Perfect location. Walking distance to town, the temples and the lake. Restaurant offered a variety of food choices and the dishes we had were excellent. Amazing pool, outdoor space. Super helpful/friendly staff. Internet very good in room. ”
“We were there for a quick over-night to go on a safari in the early morning. The evening meal was poor, in fact it was take-out from another supplier and not prepared on the spot. The box breakfast was poor. The room was fine. We did not use the pool. It is quite far from the nature park so requred a long drive to get to the safari. Generally it was OK for the price. Just have realistic expectations.”
“Very friendly and efficient manager, beautiful outlook, sadly we could only stay one night.
Beds were a bit hard for us, but plenty of very hot water for the shower.
In at 4:30pm out at 5:00am for Yala Safari.

“I stayed here over night after safaris in Yala, The room was very spacious & looked beautiful, however there was no hot water so the shower was cold. I woke covered in bed bug bites. This significantly impacted my holiday. I was also required to spend time locating pharmacies and purchasing treatment products and medication. I attempted to notify the staff in the morning, however there were no staff available despite walking around the building. I reported these issues. Unfortunately, the hotel...
“Had trouble at first with staff saying booking didnt go through so had to contact hotels via X to sort out. The one staff was a great guy, so freindly and helpful, i was in the area to visit national park and he arranged this for me. Only problem with hotel is internet did not work, and no phone reception in that area either. ”
“basic guesthouse with 5 rooms and a communal room. bed was alright and came with clean bathroom. recommended to pay extra for the air con (which didn’t seem available as an option during booking) as it was really hot when we visited and the room was stuffy after awhile. (only reason y i gave a 4 rating as i was sweating throughout the night)
the staff were great though especially Dhanushka who went all out to arrange a comfortable stay for us, including getting a beer and dinner for us. he...
“This place was a big disappointment! Hotel had canceled our 4 lake view rooms and given them to a big Indian group. So we got 2 terrible rooms with parking lot view with totally worn out madrases! Two rooms were 2 km away! On check out front desk tried tow force us to pay wines we had paid!”
“Cabanas located in trees - you are literally sleeping outside. Different experience, but nice. Be aware that animals may enter, and the river is very close by, so maybe not so good for people who needs complete silence to sleep. Staff very helpful and nice!”
