The staff were fabulous and very attentive. Janith was always there when you needed him, and the staff are what made this experience 10/10. Thank you to the team at Lion Gate Hotel.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We were served by Janith and Sadali: this praise applies to both of them. Always so cheerful, brought juice to the pool, helped carry our bags, etc. A special mention to Janith, who was always smiling while helping and wanted to make sure everything was okay.
Another plus was that we had quick contact with staff all day through WhatsApp. That service was also very helpful.
The room was really clean and modern. Luckily we didn't have bugs (aside from a few small ants). The whole hotel area was generally very clean and pleasant. There was construction going on in the yard, but it wasn't a bother at all.
Shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel were provided in the rooms, and pool towels were available on request.
Thank you so much Lion Gate, I can warmly recommend it!
The location is decent, but there aren't many restaurants or cafés nearby. It's not safe to walk around alone in the dark (the hotel warned about things like wild elephants), so we ate at the hotel restaurant a lot.
3% surcharge for card payments.

Janish, Sandali and the team looked after us so well, arranging activities, tuk tuks and even laundry for us. The room and pool were perfect too, and nice fresh food at the restaurant :) Overall a very fun and relaxing 4 nights!

Really convenient, nice facilities, good for the money and very friendly staff!
They did ask me to pay a bit of money for early check in (like one hour before) which seemed a bit cheeky.
