We stayed for 4 nights at the end of March, in one of the old rooms which looked out onto the lovely gardens. Very comfortable room - not luxurious but perfectly adequate and pretty good value for the price. Efficient A/C, mosquito nets over the large double bed, good shower etc. and a nice verandah in front with chairs and... More

It was our first time in Unawatuna and we stayed for 3 nights in one of the older rooms. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is tucked away into the hills and the colonial home-style gives it a bit of historical charm. Our room was a bit rustic as it was in the older wing, but comfortable and... More

I was nicely surprised by the hotel when I arrived. The room was cheap and I expected an average room with average facilities. The room I had was probably not the best, but it was clean and in a good condition. But I didn't have a view. It was very basic too. It would have been nice to have a... More

The breakfast buffet was covered in flies even though there were plenty of staff around,YUCK. Even... More

We came from a terrible hotel on Unawatuna beach and were happy to enter this quiet hotel. There is a nice garden and a ok pool, and you can hardly hear the buissy road nearby. There are sounds of birds and sometimes you can hear monkeys from the little jungle next to the pool. Staff was very kind and helpful.... More

Whilst the room was lovely we were given-in the annex- the hotel itself is in need of some tlc and cleaning, and the staff running the place are unfriendly and un-helpful. The food leaves a lot to be desired and we stayed in much nicer and friendly places in Sri Lanka for a great deal less money. Apart from the... More

The Nooit Gedacht hotel really is a haven of tranquility. It is the first hotel ever where we were given a free room upgrade & where after arriving with chronic toothache the staff had arranged for me to be treated by a local dentist within 2 hours - not bad for a Sunday lunchtime (try doing that in the UK!)....
