"Wir haben selten ein derart schlechtes Hotel erlebt. Die Zustände sind nicht nur veraltet, sondern schlichtweg unhygienisch, dreckig und gesundheitlich bedenklich. Ein Preis von über 100 € pro Nacht ist völlig absurd – selbst 20 € wären für diesen Zustand noch zu viel. Das Hotel ist maximal eine Notunterkunft!! Unser erster Eindruck war erschreckend. Wir reisten mit unserer Tochter an und bekamen zunächst ein Zimmer, das komplett verschimmelt war. Schimmel an den Wänden, verrostete Armaturen,...

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was lovely, but the staff truly made our stay exceptional. I would especially like to commend Manager Prem, Chef Asela, and staff members Kokilan and Jayathan, who were courteous, helpful, and friendly throughout our stay. The restaurant and reception teams were equally welcoming and attentive.
