Having always holidayed in Europe we felt now was the time to explore further afield. Sri Lanka was always our first choice. We absolutely loved our time at Kosgoda. The rooms were spotless and quite gorgeous with balcony that looks out over the Indian ocean. By no means is this a glorified 5* hotel but that doesn't mean it is... more

We stayed in this tranquil location surrounded by the picturesque Kosgoda River and the Indian Ocean during the weekend of 03rd and 04th April 2009. Friendly staff of the hotel always tried to give us a memorable stay. Our room was provided with open air space bathroom with shower Jacuzzi, air conditioning, hair dryer, tea & coffee making facilities, Television,... more

We arrived at the hotel to be met by local people arguing at the entrance gate and they were not in a hurry to let us enter the hotel grounds.Reception check in was very friendly ,with cold towels and a juice drink. We arrived late so went straight into eat,dinner was a limited choice menu but good ,as opposed to... more

Our overall experience of Sri Lanka was mixed. The hotel was lovely, although I wouldn't rate it 4 star by European standards.

This hotel, in a wonderful setting, is extremely tired looking and in need of some TLC.The attentiveness of all the staff could not be faulted although they appeared somewhat demoralised by the obvious lack of tourists as the Hotel was very quiet.The food was adequate but the bar prices were ridiculously high especially when compared to the 5 star Heritance... more

We have just arrived back from a wonderful holiday in Sri Lanka. The hotel is truly marvellous in every way, and the service is above excellent! We were on an all inclusive deal. Having arrived at Colombo we were a little surprised that the transfer to the hotel took 3 to 3.5 hours! Nevertheless, the driver was there waiting for... more
