*A great welcome to the hotel, all the staff were very happy. * Everyone was knowledgeable about the local area and things to do, and in particular the Front Office Manager Jaya Sri Wickramasinghe, he organised the transport to the elephant transit home and also a great Sri Lanka dinner for the last night. * We were a bit nervous about coming here, esp after reading all the reviews about the cleanliness of the hotel etc, but the hotel is trying to blend in with outdoor / indoor concept. * The bathrooms yes could do with a little tlc, but when considering we had 3 showers a day, you couldn't really open the windows due to the insets etc coming in and the humidity and tropical temp outside, it is understandable. * The restaurant and bar staff were great, we were very looked after, esp as my husband had been bitten by mosquito throughout the trip, the staff came and gave us cinnamon oil to burn near our legs to help. *The wildlife around the hotel, seeing turtles, monkeys, fireflys and wild birds - just wonderful.
Couldn't fault anything, do give the hotel a go, you will not be disappointed.

Staff were very friendly, the room was big and clean with a nice big comfortable bed it had great AC and a ceiling fan which was needed as it was hot there. FOOD WAS AMAZING! Great selection of food all fresh, all tasted great. Nice big pool and hotel had loads of wildlife in and around it. Was located a 10-minute drive from the National Park entrance, so great for the safarai would recomend and would stay again

On the border of the jungle one finds this exceptional hotel. The manager and staff are very welcoming. The breakfast and pool staff are also very friendly and helpful. We unexpectedly got an upgrade to one of the best suites in the hotel. The rooms are nicely decorated, impeccably clean and spacious. This suite had a bedroom, a living room besides access to a balcony and a large patio area on its roof. The choice at breakfast is very vast. A excellent hotel to stay to do a safari or visit the nearby junior elephant transit centre. Certainly hotel to return to.
Nothing at all

Excellent facilities, really welcoming staff who showed real attention to detail. Food varied and tasty. Room was very comfortable and hot water plentiful. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend this hotel if going on safari. Best hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka.
Nothing, only wished we could have stayed longer.

Excellent property with lot of greenery. Had a short stay so could not really spend a relaxed day here. The room sizes were excellent with balcony.
We were vegetarians , food options for vegetarians was a real issue. We had not carried any food with us from the previous destination. If we had known we would have planned.

This is a lovely hotel to stay at Udawalawe, it was perfect for the purpose of our trip, which was Safari at the Udawalawe national park. The staff are extremely friendly and are very accommodating. The food was lovely and leave you wanting more, glad that it was buffet!
My only gripe is that even though the rooms are clean , it is starting to show its age and would need a bit of refurbishment.

We were upgraded to two suites on arrival as we were staying for two nights. They were very spacious and each had it's own rooftop deck.
It was a little dated and could have done with a bit of an upgrade. Our suites were situated quite far from the main dining area.

Nice design, quite location. Nice pool. Good buffet in the restaurant. Safari easy to reach.
Some air conditioning not fully working. For the size of the hotel quite limited English skills of many staff members.

Big room, good location.
Breakfast is poor, maybe because we went at 9.30. Buffet dinner is good but expensive (a la carte works cheaper). Place feels a bit "soviet" (lots of staff only doing the minimum, oppressive reception area). No pool bar. Needs money spending on it - neglected since first opened
