“We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 day stay at the lovely homely Hotel Panorama and would gladly have stayed longer. Yes it it located at the top of a very steep driveway, but the view from the top that you can enjoy from your room, verandah, pool and dining room is totally worth it. We were happy to walk (3 mins to main Rd, 5 to beach) but the hotel tuktuk will shoot down to pick you up from the bottom of the driveway in less than a minute. Fabulous generous breakfast, lovely clean pool, and comfortable rooms with many thoughtful touches that we did not see elsewhere in Srilanka at this price point such as umbrella, mozzie coils, clothes drying rack, reading lights on bed head, comfy chairs in balcony, pool towels. We left at 6am to catch the early train and the very helpful manager offered to arrange a packed breakfast of great egg and cheese sandwiches. Loads of good restaurants and cafes in easy walking distance, and Galle easily accessible for a 10 minute, 400 rupee tuk tuk ride.”
“The staff are helpful and the room wasvery comfortable.”
“Nice view from the property. The bungalow was very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool. The breakfast was good.”
“Lovely pool and sea views. Nice big rooms with a terrace to relax on outside. Quite a quirky hotel with some personal touches from the owner, such as the little statues around the garden. Well maintained and managed. The slope up to the property was good exercise!”
“The view was beautiful. It was great to have the sea and beach in our sights while relaxing at the very well kept pool. The sun loungers were extremely comfortable and the pool area offered adequate areas for both sunbathing and shade. The bungalows were very well maintained. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night.”
“The view from the hotel was amazing. Good clean pool with a good number of loungers. They provide pool towels also. Very clean hotel.”
“The property was well designed, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The pool was a particular highlight. It was also nice to have the view over Unawatuna, but still be close to the beach and restaurants. There is a small cut-through to the beach just opposite the property.”
“Well appointed, spacious and meticulously clean cabanas with a mountain view of the Indian ocean.”
“The pool is lovely and has great views. It is within the perfect location for the beach and restaurants. There is a very steep hill but without the hill you wouldn't have the amazing view. They clean the rooms everyday it was overall a clean hotel. ”
“The room was very spacious and the bed very comfortable. The manager was very helpful”
