Medalin Lake Gregory

A good size room with big comfortable beds and a lovely sitting area

Bathroom floor wet with the rain

Absolutely top class location and view. Peaceful and quiet. Very nice hosts who welcome you into their homes. Amazing breakfast too

Could be a bit of a walk to the town, but you can be there in 10 mins

Stanza enorme con soggiorno e camino, bagno decoroso. Vista lago. Colazione abbondante e ottima. Host gentile.

The rooms are good sized, and with wonderful views over the lake. The family that runs the hotel are excellent, polite, very nice people, who try to help with everything. The location is good, well placed for walks around the lake. A supermarket is a 10 minute walk away, and the city centre can easily be reached by a short cheap tuktuk ride (300 SLR one way as of July 2026, plus do tip the driver a bit more). There are restaurants around as well, a couple of good Indian ones some distance away on the right hand side - the ones close by including the pizza place we found okayish.

This is a homestay, so don't expect hotel levels of professionalism; the owners and staff will respond quickly to any requests you make, e.g. please clean the room, or refill the coffee packets (its not automatically done). Also - and this is not the hotels fault at all - the nearby lake park plays quite loud booming music till about 10 PM or even 11 PM if that is a problem for you; nothing the hotel can do about it. I used earplugs.
