“Elephyard retreat”
Exceptional hotel, some building works as the hotel is very new but no disturbance at all. Welcome cool towel and drink was a lovely treat after our long journey. Excellent service, fantastic, incredibly good value food. The pillows are amazing. I need some!! I could find no faults at all with anything at the hotel. Although an extremely quiet retreat it is only a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of a lively local town.

Truly a fantastic place, a hidden gem. Close to the beautiful Lake Sorabora (800m), this is an oasis of peace and comfort. The rooms are very luxurious and stylishly decorated, the large garden and ditto pool are lovely. The staff; Ruwan and his colleagues, treat you like Royalty! The food is the best I have eaten in Sri Lanka, without exaggeration. Wish we could have stayed longer than just two nights!
