9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (6)
"The Aryana hotel exceeded our expectations. The whole place was spotless, service was terrific, the food was delicious and the hospitality was incredible. Nelu, the manager took care of ourselves, he made sure we enjoyed our stay in all aspects, he gave us tips for our trip, helped secure a tuktuk to take us around, and engaged in meaningful conversation. He even provided us with a free upgrade as our room was not very confortable the first night. I highly recommend this hotel. "

8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (78)
"Very quiet when we stayed so lacking atmosphere, particularly in the the restaurant. The service in the restaurant was excellent but reception was less helpful, except the lady who seemed to be the manager. Room was nice but could easily be updated to a much higher standard. Lots of monkeys, and they get up close, we quite enjoyed watching on our veranda but others might be put off by. "

The Lakeside Hotel at Nuwarawewa
3.0 star property
7.2 out of 10, Good, (40)
"This property offered value for money - it was cheap. In its heyday, it must have been a very nice hotel but maintenance has fallen behind over the years. The common areas are fine but the rooms and exterior/grounds are very tired and badly need to be updated. Perhaps the owners can't afford it - there were only 4 guests booked in on the night we stayed."

"Even though we booked this 9 months in advance there were no rooms ready, not because they were busy they just weren't ready. We had to wait an hour for a room to be cleaned. The showers were freezing. The bathroom grubby. The picture online is nothing like the hotel it must have been taken 20 years ago. The building is old and tired. Nearby is a temple that blasted chanting out of a megaphone all night long, both nights - sleep was limited. The towels were hard, small and thin. I lay on...

"This property really upset me as there’s just soo much potential. I looked online before I booked and there was one negative review saying the hotel was being refurbished (April 2019 from memory) and I assumed it would be completed. Oh I was wrong. Apart from a lovely looking pool (apart from The destructed building to one side covered by a net) that was very dirty as the staff didn’t clean it until I asked and the spa that looked amazing (only from the outside) every part of the hotel is still...
