Lavendish Lake Giritale - Former Giritale Hotel

Awsome view of the Giritale lake. Very helpful staff.

Swimming pool needs a bit more refurbishment.

This was the best hotel view we have had in Sri Lanka! Amazing view over the lake and you can see Elephants on the other side at Minneria National Park. The staff are very friendly and we found both the breakfast and evening buffet really good with loads of choice of Western and Sri Lankan. Half board better than travelling to find a restaurant by car. Definitely go for a lake view room! and we found the delux rooms very good with modern decor and good showers. We had the delux family interconnected room with lake view and the description doesn’t do it justice as you have a massive area between the two rooms to store luggage. Not quick off the mark to give you pool towels and sun lounger topper but they are there if you ask. The pool table is fab to use in the evenings and drinks orders at the bar are quick unlike many places….would definitely recommend this hotel. Lovely welcome drink.

Just some general refresh would be good on the pool area as pool edge needs painting, with new sunlounger toppers and the shower is being taken over by plants. The drinks veranda is lovely so the pool area lets it down. Tables by the pool area for your drink would be fab as nowhere to put them. Also a little intro to the hotel offerings at check in would be good and where things were. I would redo your listing on booking sites for the delux family suite interconnecting as it doesn’t do it justice and you cant even see the twin room so unclear what it is. Finally your pool cues need repairing as two have no tips at all and there is no chalk.

Schöne Aussucht auf den See, gute Lage, schöner Pool
