The hotel offers spacious, modern rooms of a very high standard, which were comfortable but slightly dark with no main light. The location by the Yala National Park was impressive, with a go-green concept and close proximity for safaris. The dining experience was a mix of good and poor quality dishes. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement in dining.
