It was our third visit to Royal Palms Beach Hotel in Sri Lanka. It was like coming home again. Sri Lanka is called the island with a smile and this is even more in this hotel. Everybody is so friendly and helpfull to the guests. Food is good and we want to suggest you the seafood Restaurant. You have to... more

We had never been to Sri Lanka before, but would without a doubt go back. The weather although at the start of the holiday in September was wet a few times it turned out to be glorious weather, so we were able to relax.The sea wads too rough so could not swim in it, although we had the pool to... more

This is a very nice hotel. We stayed for 9 nights in the hotel in the beginning of december 2009. The hotel has a great swimming pool. The food is good for one week( because after one week they start the same weekschedule again with the same theme evenings). The service is good but some of the staff were too... more

Just returned from the Royal Palms and would like to say thank you for a wonderful time. The rooms may need some updating but all in all if you accept that you are going to an indian country and not spain and just relax back into the culture and tempo of the country you will enjoy it. A thank you... more

Kocation was good for beach [right on it] local shops, town and transport including trains to Galle and Colombo [and further to Kandy if you wanted]. Staff... more

It's true that there are some very professional con artists who work the tourists in Sri Lanka but none of them are threatening and can easily be brushed off. As some of the reviewers have said, they are only trying to make a living and I've been in many countries where violence would be the option, not persuasion. The local... more

Me and my Fiancee have just returned from a relaxing 2 week break at this Superb hotel. We went for the winter Sun and although the weather was mixed at the start of the Holiday it did not stop us enjoying the hotel and the Service. It is easier to review the hotel by section so here goes: Bed Room... more

Our room was very shabby and dismal and definately not clean, the bath tub had brown marks in the bottom and we found fleas in the towels and on the bed, there was also stray dogs roaming around the hotel especially in... more

We used a lady driver called Kumari to drive us to Galle and on other local trips including the river safari and Richmond House. She was very keen to show us the country and vey importantly her driving was very sensible. You should find her by the front gate. The hotel has a great array of food for the adventurous... more
