This is an amazing hotel, everything is very special. Rooms are clean and spacious and with lovely views and lots of natural light.
The facilities such as the pool and the spa are fantastic.
The restaurant really yummy and lovely atmosphere.
The staff members are extraordinary.
Our son doesn’t want to go anywhere else 😂.
He keeps saying, nothing is like the HiltonYala ❤️
An excellent hotel worth the effort to travel to, an amazing location within the national park, staff all very professional and helpful from the first step onto the property.
Chef fantastic and cooked to any request
Lovely property literally surrounded by wildlife, beautiful suites, very conveniently located near Yala National Park. Delicious dining options, welcoming staff and service. Would recommend and return again if in Yala Sri Lanka area.
We stayed for 2 nights and LOVED every minute of it! Food was amazing staff beyond friendly and our room with the pool was serene after the safari trip. Highly recommended
Incredible stay in this fantastic new hotel. The room was impressive, with high standard quality beds.
The pool is warm and huge.
Thank you to the very qualified team, especially Chef Jerome, who is doing a fantastic job!
Absolutely incredible hotel and the staff go above and beyond to make you have an amazing stay. Kenny in the restaurant is fantastic and recommend us some wonderful food. Highly recommend.
The hotel is very new! Everything was perfect and the food delicious!! The chef is pretty good! The safari was very nice and the ranger has a lot of knowledge about the area.
It was my birthday, I have mentioned to hotel before check in. We had dinner and made a request for a cake they confirmed we waited no cake came. We didn’t ask for anything complementary or free we were paying for it. This is the first year I celebrate my birthday with no cake or celebration. Very disappointed although I have chosen Hilton since it’s a 5 star international hotel . Every year all hotels even the 3 , 4 or 5 celebrate. They even didn’t Say happy birthday. Extremely disappointed with their services . Other than that they were too slow in checking in check out. Serving the lunch, serving the dinner I’m disappointed with their service
Very professional staff, incredible location near the entrance to Yala National Park. The staffs English could be improved upon but the staff were very attentive, warm and helpful.
The room we had was incredible. Very large with all the amenties you could expect. The small private pool was nice but cold and not really used.
The food at the restaurant was well prepared and reasonably priced. They have both an international food and local Sri Lankan menu to choose from.
We look forward to returning some day!
