A Hotel with a Staff Who Treats You Like Family ❤️

Reviewed By ruwin_yapa

From the time we arrived the staff was so friendly and the hotel had their unique tradition of welcoming the guests. Everything about the hotel was excellent, from the facilities, food and the rooms. We would like to thank Ms. Rosheen, she was really friendly. Even when we were taken to our room, every detail about the room was thoroughly explained even from what switch turned on what light. The hotel has so many activities from Horse Riding, Kayaking, Archery, Bicycle Riding, Safaris etc. The only thing I would like if the management would consider is having a package which included 2-4 activities at a discounted price, since the direct dollar conversion rates for Sri Lankan residents are a tad too high, other than that everything else was perfect about this hotel. The food was amazing, the head chef even visited us when we were having our meal to get our feedback. I would like to specially thank Mr. Sumanarathne for being lovely host and great person to talk to. Special thanks to Mr. Rankoth and Ms. Kalhari who to took us for Kayaking & Archery. And also a special thanks to the person who took us horse riding (sorry that I can't remember his name) with Rolex and Roxy. Unforgettable experiences for the life. Another special surprise was that they give us small photo of us framed which was lovely touch. Once again I would like to offer a special thanks to Ms. Rosheen for taking care of all our needs in every possible way. If there is one reason to visit Uga Ulagalla, it's just because of the STAFF and the atmosphere of the hotel !!! Execeptional STAFF, the best, we have ever seen at a hotel in Sri Lanka.

EKHO Lake House

EKHO Lake Polonnaruwa, is located in North Central Sri Lanka, the medieval capital of the country. Caressed by the waters of one of the greatest man-made lakes, you cannot find a more serene and picturesque place to immerse yourself in serene surroundings and rich history echoing inches away. In 1870 the British Empire chose it for a circuit bungalow, making Lake House a heritage site of its own. The royal wish of Queen Elizabeth II on her visit to serendipity was to stay here and the comfort enjoyed by royalty has grown seamlessly over time into a boutique hotel with a whiff of classic colonial times. In addition to that, all 8 rooms, are completed with modern comforts and overlook the tranquil lake, “ Parakrama Samudra and provide breathtaking views of the wildlife habitat that surrounds it.

Amazing property, excellent food & high service standards

Reviewed By Imalka_h

EKHO Lake House easily goes down as one of the most amazing properties I’ve visited in Sri Lanka. Never knew Polonnaruwa had so much to offer in terms of accommodation as a luxury boutique property. EKHO Lake House nailed every aspect. The food was on point and not a single dish missed the mark in terms of flavor and presentation. Special mention must be made of the calamari and mutton rice and the Sri Lankan breakfast. We had one of the most relaxing stays ever as the property itself borders the Parakrama Samudraya. The evening boat ride at sunset organized by EKHO Lake House was one of the best experiences we’ve had during our travels around Sri Lanka. The staff service standards were very high and every request was catered to. The manager Udesh and his staff were excellent, extremely well mannered and went above and beyond to ensure that we enjoyed our stay.

This place is amazing! We have been resting here for one night, and the hotel left a positive impression! Rooms are clean and cozy, with a good view! Staff is very polite and friendly, they want you to be in a good mood all the time. The swimming pool has been cleaned three times since we were there, so it’s pure! We had breakfast, lunch and dinner here, and I have to say, that it is tasty, they tried to cook more European food and we appreciate it??? Это действительно очень хороший отель!

The people & our stay at Athreya Ayurvedic Ashram were the highlight of our Sri Lanka trip!!!

Reviewed By TravelingSadhaka

Our family stay at Athreya Ayurveda Ashram was the highlight of our time in Sri Lanka. Dr. Hewanayaka, Shiron and their family (especially sweet Dulara) and the entire staff made our stay incredibly special. We really felt like family. They were so incredibly helpful with scheduling and with our son so that both my husband and I could receive the treatments regularly. The Yoga classes with Kingsley were wonderful. He was so patient and caring, even when our 6-year-old popped in and out of class. The meals were delicious, the service unsurpassed. They asked us regularly for feedback, and always explained all of the food dishes with pride and patience for our many questions. They set up special events for us like a Kandyan dance class, a boat ride on the lake to see lots of lotuses and flying foxes, a trip to Ritigala monastery and even came with us on an elephant safari which made our 6-year-old so happy! This stay so far exceeded our expectations, I would give it 10 out of 5 stars if I could!! The traditional food, the Ayurvedic treatments, our wonderful therapists, the kitchen staff, Shiron's wonderful service-oriented presence, the fantastic Doctor, all of it. We have missed it there since the day we left. But we left there feeling healthy, balanced, light-hearted and stress-free. Thank you so much to everyone at Athreya! We could never thank you all enough for making our time in Sri Lanka truly unforgettable. We hope to be back someday!

Very welcoming hosts. I was offered a juice on arrival and a detailed map to help me explore the area. The room had AC and there was a large bottle of water provided and the shower was very modern. The whole space was immaculate. The bed was very comfortable and there were also 2 light bed covers if I got chilly during the night. The breakfast was a very big portion. A yummy plate of assorted fresh fruit, home made roti, lentil curry, omelette and tea. Plus they also provided an additional large bottle of water. I asked if they provided dinner late that evening and was served a huge vegetable and egg kotthu with some ice cream to follow and a large bottle of water. It is located 5 mins walk from main bus station but they offered to drop me to the railway station free of charge. Most positive overnight experience so far!
