Top Hotels in Badulla

Tree Nature Resort

2.5 star property
Badulla
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (1)
"A unique experience. Staying in a treehouse was very high on the novelty scale. Expect a slight slope in the floor, and don't forget to close the windows before you go to bed as the monkeys are sneaky and will steal any fruit that you leave on the dining table. A fun night. If you are averse to a staircase, this might not suit, you though."

"Das Hotel sollte Expedia aus dem Programm nehmen. Das Zimmer war schmutzig, verstaubt. Das Bad riecht übel. Kein warmes Wasser. Das fenster im Bad liess sich nicht schließen, dadurch besteht die Gefahr dass Mosquitos ungehindert eindringen und das in den Tropen. Im Flur liegen tote Insekten, Kakerlaken. Insgesamt ist das gesamte hotel schmutzig und heruntergekommen auch wenn sich das Personal bemüht. "

"Vi havde indlogeret os på Club-house, som er den lidt mere eksklusive del, og der var også den mest fantastiske udsigt. Men værelset var fyldt med diverse insekter, som vi var nødt til at bruge lang tid på at få fjernet. Der var desuden også kun myggenet til dobbeltsengen, så dem der sov i de 2 enkeltsenge måtte leve med rummets insekter om natten, og der var mange forskellige slags, lige fra tissemyrer og bier til kæmpe græshopper. Morgenmaden var ok, men aftensmaden var relativt smagsløst....
