We loved the close proximity to the beaches. The old worldy charm.of the building. The boys who managed and serviced the rooms were very sweet and helpfull. Sadly Hikkaduwa is monopolised by Russian visitors.

La habitación estaba llena de humedades con olor fuerte de humedad difícil de respirar. Las sábanas sucias y llena de arena. Ubicación si, que buena. Las fotos no corresponden a la realidad.

Vi hade bokat ett rum med AC i tre nätter, men det blev nåt fel på bokningen så vi fick ett rum på nedre botten med fläkt, rummet är gammalt och slitet men funkar för en natt. Vi fick sedan byta till övervåningen som är nybyggd , och det var mycket bra. Nära till allt från vad till restauranger, och bada med sköldpaddor, fiskar och hajar utanför hotellet till höger. Mycket trevlig och hjälpsam personal på hotellet. Helt ok mat om man vill äta där.

Hotellet väldigt eftersatt! Vi fick nig sista rummet (nr4) o det var verkligen ofräscht! o utan fönster, det var ett galler i del av taket (alkov) inget myggnät o kackerlacka i badrummet. Såg att andra rum hade uteplats mot havet vilket såg betydligare trevligare ut! Läget var kanon!

Good location friendly family. Unfortunately our room was very tired compared with photos there was clearly a damp problem. Restaurant has a comprehensive menu although appeared shut the first few days as no effort was made to promote probably our fault make sure you ask for menu. Good restaurants all around.

Здесь работают обманщики. Индивидуальным туристам ———сюда нельзя! Грязь, мрак, тусклый и заядлый запах ——от разлагающихся кораллов.

Turtles Rest has been one of the highlights of our trip so far. It's in an excellent location for surrounding bars, restaurants and shopping. Try the local breakfasts...yum! I wish I could give the staff here a 6 or more. Just lovely.
