Très bon repas. Un personnel à l’écoute. Ils ont organisé notre safari au sein du parc pour un prix défiant toute concurrence. Des paons magnifiques (sauvages) se posent souvent dans le jardin.
Quelques moustiques.

On the edge of Yala National Park it is a fabulous location quiet and peaceful only noice of the wildlife which is all around. Staff exceptionally helpful it is great value. Highly recommend. Note that Kategarama is a sacred city and alcohol is not available so if that’s your want you need to source a few kilometres away .. staff will gladly obtain for you with some notice.
Nothing it exceeded expectations.

Overall the property is good for safari travelers. Breakfast and dinner is good and value for money. Team lead by Sameera and his crew done a fairly good job to make us comfortable as much as they can.
The access road to the property must be improve and develop immediately. The parking area should be convenient further without much troubles from the environment.

The location is on a 5 min tuk tuk ride away from the centre. The owners and staff were very helpful!
The rooms were well furnished and spacious. You can hear peacocks near the property.
They arrange Yala Safari tour, even if you book them on the day of arrival. Breakfast and Dinner can be available at the property if ordered beforehand.
Very few restaurants available in the Kataragama centre.

we stayed one night at the safari lodge and it was a great experience! The people working there are so nice and helpful! They made the experience even better. The room is nice, large and clean. We had a delicious diner and breakfast. They arranged the safari for us with Prasad! We saw so much wildlife. Prasad is a great guide and went above and beyond to deliver us the best safari experience! We even caught a glipse of a leopard!

As a Customer Services oriented person I always evaluate the Guest Service as number 01 priority more than anything else. In that aspect I found this location has been one of the best. Mr. Sameera (Manager) and his crew has been welcoming guests with a great smile.
As for the comfort of the Room I find it OK and super clean.
It is only the usual Power Cuts made our stay bit inconvenient but the Hotel Crew provided us Candles. Power Cut is a usual thing in Sri Lanka nowadays, so I understand even the Property Owners are also going through the same discomfort, so the current crappy Govt. should be blamed for it.

Very nice staff. What we ordered for dinner was delicious. Room and the facilities are worth the money.
Double bed was arranged with 2 single mettresses. It was really uncomfortable.

We sadly stay only for 1 night and it was really nice and pleasant stay. Thank you! On another note, they are offering tours to the park, as well and I would recommend you to go with them (they are professional, as all the other companies and they have compitive prices).

The facility was excellent and the staff was amazing. the safari tour guide and the driver Prasad was very helpful, knowledgeable and showed every thing we requested. The rarest Sri Lankan Leopard was the first one we saw during the trip. It is a safe and friendly facility and staff for a family to enjoy and explore.
