Location is perfect for hiking Adams Peak. The manager was most helpful in advising when to leave, etc. Generator was fired up when electricity went out in the town. This was most helpful. They also housed and fed our driver, which he appreciated greatly.

Not bad for a night, otherwise I won’t recommend i
Book this hotel just for a night, we climbed Adam’s Peak, location very nice as it’s only 10 min walking distance from the starting point, hotel look wise n restaurant are very good but the rooms need updating and a ceiling fan due to a lot of mosquitoes... overall it’s not bad if you booking it just for the night, if u wanna stay longer then I won’t recommend it

Tres bruyant (fête dans l'etablisement voisin repas entre taxi drivers tres bruyant et agité dans l'etablissement lui'-même).J'avais réservé 1 chambre en vue de monter Adam's Peak en partant a 2h du matin. Impossible de me reposer entre 18h et 2h du matin. J'ai finalement du partir louer une autre chambre plus calme dans un autre etablissement pas loin pour envisager l ascension de nuit plus sereinement. Je deconseille très fortement.

A night without sleep
We do not expect much from the Hotel as we understand it is a place for a short stay before visitors going up to the Adam's Peak. However, we could not manage to sleep at the Hotel the night before our hike as there were so much noise outside our room - furniture moving - guests talking and yelling - and knocking doors. With poor sound insulation (very thin walls and doors, I suppose) we could not have the rest we needed for the hike. Despite the good service and food - I do not think I would recommend this place for my friends visiting Adam's Peak.

Recommended! Would return!
Large, spacious room with two beds and balcony, probably the largest I have seen anywhere. Somewhat old hotel, but very clean. Seems to be oldest and most traditional hotel in the area. Staff is very friendly and eager to help. Very close to Adam´s Peak trail. Restaurant has a beautiful view. Food is OK.
