Helarambe Hotels

"SUPER friendly and accommodating staff. I made my booking earlier in the day but it hadn’t come through their system they totally took me in and showed me to my room right away. It was spacious and the hot water worked. Very close to the base of the Adam’s Peak hike so can start the hike from the hotel’s doorstep. Had a wonderful breakfast on their outdoor porch after my hike. I’d recommend this hotel to any travelers visiting the Sri Pada area. "

"The journey from the airport to the resort was long and extremely bumpy, which made it quite unpleasant. While the resort is located near the tea plantation, there wasn’t a meaningful walk-through to experience tea picking or interaction with the tea pickers. The resort itself was acceptable, though I experienced some unusual issues in my room on two occasions. On the first night of my check in, my luggage could not be unlocked until the next morning. There’s also another particular evening whereby each time I yawned, all the lights would unexpectedly switched off. It was strange and inconvenient. On a positive note, the dining options were relatively good and enjoyable. The serving staff were very hospitable and pleasant as well. Overall, the stay was average and did not fully live up to expectations."

"This was a fantastic place to unwind. A vast array of activities in the surrounding nature or a SriLankan cooking lesson which we found was amazingly interesting and tasty!!! A truly luxurious boutique hotel with wonderful staff. The roads in are interesting and we were glad of the SUV we had hired. Over 4 hour drive from Colombo which was indeed stunning. We loved this place."
