Majatalot – Kataragama

”The hotel is overall a wonderful experience, truly allowing you to feel part of nature while enjoying excellent vegetarian cuisine and complete tranquility. There is not much to do at the hotel itself, which is exactly the point, it’s the perfect place to unwind, relax, and connect with nature. Yala safaris can also be conveniently arranged directly through the hotel. The food and breakfasts are excellent. The service is smooth and professional, with very attentive staff. The rooms are clean...

”First of all, when I went to 'Palugaha pilgrim resort' it was locked. Even the mobile was not reachable. I had booked this thro' Expedia. Fortunately the auto rickshaw driver was knowledgeable about the place so took us to a nearby place. This did not have any name but there was someone to entertain us. He claimed that was the Palugaha resort & also said there was no intimation from Expedia reg my booking. However, he was kind enough to arrange the room for us. After that, everything was fine....

”Majatalo oli pieni, siinä näytti olevan vain kaksi huonetta (jotka molemmat olivat isoja). Sijainti oli syrjäinen, mutta hyvä Yalan kansallispuistoa ajatellen. Syrjäisen sijainnin vuoksi oli käytännössä pakko syödä majatalossa. Sieltä sai ruokaa tilaamalla sen etukäteen. Ruoka ei ollut mitenkään ihmeellistä, esim. kana oli kuivaa. Huone oli hyvässä kunnossa. Se oli sisältä vähän pimeä, koska katossa ei ollut lamppua. Huoneessa oli useita pistorasioita, joihin sopi suoraan suomalaisetkin...

”Hi, the property was nice, but in the middle of the rice fields. They did not serve dinner, so you have to take a tuktuk to town. The room itself was large and beautiful, but the AC did not work and there was no fridge in the room.”

”La chambre est superbe. Tout est propre et beau. La vue sur les rizières est magnifique. Quant à notre hôte, elle a été très prévenante. Elle nous a même préparé un dîner à notre arrivée qui n'était pas prévu. ”

”Ansprechende, saubere Zimmer. Neuer Pool mit Liegestühlen und Schirmen. Netter und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Frühstück und Abendessen in der Unterkunft war außergewöhnlich gut und reichhaltig”

”Très belle vue sur la nature et la rivière, nous avons pu observer des animaux depuis notre lit. Par contre le logement est entièrement ouvert il faut donc s'attendre à la visite nocturne de grosses souris. Nous avons prévenu le propriétaire pour qui cela était normal. Conseil : ne pas laisser de nourriture dans la chambre ou dans vos sacs : le notre a été rongé !”

”basic guesthouse with 5 rooms and a communal room. bed was alright and came with clean bathroom. recommended to pay extra for the air con (which didn’t seem available as an option during booking) as it was really hot when we visited and the room was stuffy after awhile. (only reason y i gave a 4 rating as i was sweating throughout the night) the staff were great though especially Dhanushka who went all out to arrange a comfortable stay for us, including getting a beer and dinner for us. he...
