Очень достойный отель, хороший сервис, персонала много и он готов постоянно помочь. Бассейн на крыше с видом на океан и город, джакузи с горячей водой, небольшой сад там же. Дают ключи от номера (он же пропуск на крышу и для лифта - по числу гостей). Два дня жили с включённым завтраком, два дня - завтрак + ужин. Хорошее разнообразие, мясо, салаты, выпечка вкусные. На завтраке соков нет, только чай или кофе. На ужине напитки за отдельную плату. Думаем, что хотя бы что-то одно (завтрак или ужин) брать надо, поесть в кафе поблизости привычной нам еды маловероятно. Уезжали на три дня, оставляли вещи в камере хранения, заказывали такси в аэропорт ночью при отъезде 8200 lkr, да подороже на пару тысяч рупий, но все вовремя и чётко. Из того, что не увидели в отзывах: будьте аккуратней на завтраке, если будете есть на балконе ресторана, вороны постоянно охотятся за хлебом и булками, два раза ели на балконе и оба раза вороны у соседей таскали булки, не очень приятно. Магазин Cargills с продуктами в 3 минутах ходьбы справа при выходе из Marino Mall (если стоять спиной к Тц). В отзывах также видели недоумение по поводу неприватности санузла, ребят, ну там же на стене при входе в ванную электронный пульт, он закрывает шторку, если кто стеснительный шибко. Жили оба раза в делюксе, но один раз на 3 этаже и на сторону стройки, а второй раз на 6 этаже и на сторону Галле форта. Вид во втором случае гораздо лучше, да и номер прям круче, несмотря на один тип номеров. На сторону Галле форта выходят нечетные номера, просите их на ресепшн, ну и этаж лучше выше 3-го, так как третий расположен над кухней ресторана, запах еды, если сидеть на балконе номера может не всем понравиться. Курить можно на балконе, стоят большие вазоны с песком, мешать запахом никому не будете, все балконные двери с доводчиком и всегда закрыты. Из мелочей, которые нужно поправить только, наверное отсутствие бумажных салфеток в ресторане и ложки для обуви в номере, но это, ерунда, конечно. Отель очень рекомендуем, реально достойно, все стараются, молодцы.
訪訪客用戶This hotel is in Wattala which is only 7km from the Fort train station but feels ages away.
Service - excellent. As in all areas of Sri Lanka the staff are very friendly and helpful. All say hello and genuinely seem to enjoy their jobs. There seems to be an army of cleaners and wait staff and again, all are friendly with very good English. The doorman was my favourite with a massive smile and great personality!
There were some issues with the half-board deal I was on regarding when and where you can have the half board - which is only breakfast and dinner although on Trip it reads like you have a choice of when you can have your two meals a day. So just clarify when you arrive to be sure.
Facilities - big open ground, big swimming pool which you could do laps in if you wanted but also with decent steps on the side so younger children can play. There is also a small children's pool too which is adjacent to the big pool and next to the sun bathing area which has around 10 sun chairs in pairs with an umbrella and small table around the grass area, with more chairs and beanbags set up on the higher area.
I have seen big groups playing team games, cricket, football, some weird waterpolo/volleyball/handball game in the pool and even a few keen cricket players today.
Restaurant - the floor level open air restaurant is well staffed, nicely proportioned and the buffet breakfast, lunch or dinner is extensive (if a little repetitive after three days). On some occasions there was live music which was nice and not overpowering, playing mainly English music.
Bar - The Fishery is the outdoor restaurant for al e carte food service and some drinks. You can choose to sit under the roof bar area or under trees next to it, on big picnic style seating.
Gym - this is located next to the pool/restaurant and although it is a bit tired, it has everything you need. The running machines are a bit clunky but at least they work, the weight machines are a little stiff to move but again they are functional. There are free weights and area to work out - even a small space for yoga or stretching if thats your thing. There is also air conditioning - and in 30+ heat, very much needed!
Downside - its a bit hard to get to and you have to take a taxi or tuk tuk (don't pay anything over 5,000 for this!). The beach which you can see and hear, is very close but not suitable for swimming - especially for young children. Also the beach isn't particularly clean - outside the hotel the beach is raked for appearances, but walk 50m to your left or right, and its not too pretty!
Not really a downside but be aware that if you are here in weekend, this place seems to host a lot of parties, weddings and events - which is great energy with lots of noise and atmosphere. It is a lot quieter in the week days. And the pool becomes full in the afternoons!!!
訪訪客用戶屋頂有游泳池和健身房很不錯,工作人員都很熱情。自助早餐形式很豐盛,味道不錯。酒店位置也很好,酒店對面就是foodcity shop和商場。唯一缺點就是酒店附近正在蓋房子,噪音很大,比較吵。
It's nice to have a swimming pool and gym on the roof, and the staff are very enthusiastic. The buffet breakfast is very rich and delicious. The location of the hotel is also very good, opposite the hotel is the foodcity shop and the shopping mall. The only drawback is that a house is being built near the hotel, which makes a lot of noise.
