拉文迪什威爾帕圖

Dicht bij het park Wilpattu bevindt zich deze mooie locatie. Heerlijk zwembad en vriendelijk personeel en uitzicht op de rijstvelden. Airco is aanwezig. Ontbijt was goed en avond eten beviel ons ook. 1 nacht verbleven maar prima ervaring.

Die 12 kilometer extra hebben we er graag voor overgehad. Wat een fijne locatie. Prachtige kamers, zwembad en super personeel. Geholpen met safari boeken. En eten en drinken meer dan goed. We gaan dit hotel aanbevelen bij onze fiets organisatie.

Our stay at Lavendish Wild was deeply disappointing, and we feel compelled to warn others — particularly women — about the experience we had. The male manager’s behaviour was nothing short of disgraceful. He was rude, arrogant, and openly misogynistic. During check-in, he blatantly belittled and spoke down to his female staff in front of us. He refused to acknowledge my female companion, directing all conversation exclusively toward me, simply because I am a man. It was uncomfortable, offensive, and completely unacceptable — especially in this day and age. His entire demeanour was smarmy and unlikable, leaving a very sour impression from the outset. His only redeeming action was helping us charge our electric tuk tuk, but even that came with an attempt to overcharge us — demanding double what other hotels had previously charged — and only backing down when we refused. The hotel itself is in poor condition. With serious maintenance and a complete cultural shift in leadership, it could be something special, but right now it falls well short. The atmosphere is strange and uninviting, adding to the overall discomfort of our stay. Breakfast was average at best. The only positive aspect was the kindness and professionalism of the other staff, especially Mairnika, who looked after our room with care and grace — despite clearly working under difficult and discouraging conditions. We would strongly advise against staying here. There are far better options closer to the Wilpattu park entrance, and none of them (we hope) tolerate the kind of backward, disrespectful behaviour we witnessed here.
