Best Hotels near Isipathana Aranya Senasanaya, Maradankadawala

Perfect luxury boutique property in the most peaceful location. Fantastic rooms, food and service. Great to be able to use bikes to get around. We took part in the cookery demonstration which was great fun. Great to meet Katharina in the Elephant Research Centre and find out about the local Elephants and wildlife in the area as well as the really important sustainability measures used and how this hotel works closely with the local families too. We also did the village cycle ride and scenic drive around Nachchaduwa, topped off with sundowners over the lake - fantastic memories made. A perfect stay - thank you.

This hotel is close to the main attraction - Sigiriya rocks and next to the road, which is very convenient. But at the same time in a quiet place with a view of the mountains. The lobby and restaurant are very stylishly decorated. Upon check-in, we were treated to a refreshing papaya juice and cool hand towels, which came in handy after a long drive. Check-in was very fast and comfortable. The territory of the hotel is very green and well-groomed. There is a large pool with different depths and even an outdoor jacuzzi )) During our stay, the water in the pool was very warm and it was nice to swim. There are sun loungers and beach towels. It is very fortunate that you can choose a place to relax in the shade of trees or in the sun to sunbathe. All Nivadoo rooms are located in detached cottages. Thus, the guests do not interfere with each other at all. We had a triple room, very cozy and stylishly decorated. The room has air conditioning, refrigerator with mini-bar, TV, kettle and dishes to make tea or coffee, bottled water. Cleaning service and change of towels are offered daily. Very pleased with the availability of hot water in shower. The room was very clean and pleasant to be in. There is also a terrace with a table and chairs where you can relax during the day. Food is a different story. You can choose accommodation with breakfast or half board. Breakfasts and dinners are amazingly delicious. For breakfast they serve scrambled eggs, bacon or sausages, toast, butter, jam, fresh fruit, pancake, but the baked pineapple with chocolate topping was especially impressive, it was divine)) For dinner there is a choice of several dishes. We tried shrimp and fish in sweet sauce and grilled chicken, all very tasty. For dinner, soup-puree and a dessert of your choice are also served. We were very pleased with our stay and would love to come again.

MAGICAL!! it's a pity that we had just 1 night to spend in this resort.... it's a place to detox, disconnect, seek within and go on a soul searching journey to connect within yourself! The entire energy of this place is pure! From the way we were greeted with the temple flowers as we were walked down to our little cottage to the natural fragrance in the room with the fresh flowers decorated in all corners of the room, the bed and the washroom.... everything was charming. Wifi was only in the lounge area/common...so you could not stay cooped up in your place all day...n if you happen to go in Jan/Feb, that's just great coz it will get a little pleasantly chilly at late evenings ...n just breathing in that fresh clean air was amazing! The buffet spread includes live cooking counter and is quite varied...not exceptionally varied for vegetarians but overall a good spread. I would love to go back n just be there a few days n slack in the beauty in that still and clear clean quiet. There is also an ayurvedic centre within the premises for those interested.... I would suggest, it's worth a try and the prices are pretty good too.

Suddenly too good value, staying feel very comfortable, first-class service attitude, the hotel environment is beautiful and elegant, the buffet is rich and delicious, I look forward to the opportunity to stay again. (Note: Ctrip's location information is incorrect. The hotel's location is at least 20 kilometers one-way from Shiziyan, not near Shiziyan.) There is also Chinese food inside.
