    Ideal hotel with free Wi-Fi and amazingly nice and outstandingly accommodating staff. Well-maintained and well-appointed room with clean bathroom. A huge variety of appetising food. Great and fab location in Kudapaduwa close enough to various cafés and restaurants, the airport, and a church. Also, on the beach

    Not particularly friendly staff!

    The room was tastefully decorated and had a functional design with a beautiful view of the sea. the staff were incredibly attentive and helpful, thanks to them everything was perfect. - Its location was very central, just minutes away from the Lake Boat Safari.

    The beautifully maintained rooms with balconies were a lovely touch. the welcoming staff made us feel right at home. - the location was convenient, being close to a church and the Fish Market. - Cafe Enviro nearby was a great spot for tea or coffee.

    The air-conditioned rooms at Blue Elephant Tourist Guesthouse were absolutely amazing. The balcony with sea views made me feel like I was in paradise. The rooms were cozy and had everything I needed, from a comfortable bed to a flat-screen TV. I couldn't ask for more as a vegetarian/vegan traveler.

    Personally, I would have preferred if the rooms had a patio instead of a balcony. But hey, that's just my personal preference and others may still enjoy it.

    Great value for money, especially for the first night in Sri Lanka. The room was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the beach. The staff, especially Nalaka, were friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and substantial options.

    Title: Perfect Stay for Families near the Airport!

    For dads, it would be great if there were more kid-friendly activities or a small play area for children.

    The property is just a short walk from the beach, making it easily accessible. the staff is friendly and accommodating, even waiting patiently for our late arrival. the breakfast served was delicious and filling, with a variety of options to choose from. a highly recommended place to stay.

    The staff made us feel at ease and were always willing to help, making our stay hassle-free.

    During my Christmas stay, I absolutely loved the convenience of the hotel's location. It was within walking distance to the beach and just a short drive away from the airport. Plus, the nearby shops and restaurants made it easy to grab a quick bite or do some last-minute shopping. the friendly and attentive staff made my stay even better.

    the room I stayed in was quite basic with no extra frills or luxuries. considering the affordable rates, it was perfectly adequate for a short stay.

    I absolutely loved the charming and cozy decoration in the hotel's general areas. The beautiful batik wall hangings added a touch of elegance and warmth to the space. As a senior woman, I appreciate when hotels pay attention to the details and create a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for their guests. Additionally, the hotel's accessibility for senior people was excellent. The staff was always willing to assist me and ensure that I had a pleasant stay. They were understanding and patient, making me feel welcome and well taken care of during my time there.

    The only thing I would suggest for a better vacation for senior people is for the children working there to provide more options for breakfast. While the breakfast offered was fine, it would have been nice to have a choice of cereals or other lighter options.
