Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: We loved the peace and tranquility, as well as the history, of this beautiful hotel. The expansive views across the lake, from the room, from the lawns, the restaurant and the infinity pool made it endlessly relaxing, and the quiet attentiveness of the staff perfectly matched that vibe. It is also conveniently right next to the museum for the tickets to the ancient city and they hired bikes for us to go round. Breakfast was delicious as was the Sri Lankan curry we had for dinner on the second night. We stayed one of our two nights in the Royal Suite, thanks to the staff kindly arranging for us to upgrade, and that was a surreal, unforgettable, experience.
Summary: Blissfully relaxing, charming and elegant
