더 웨스트베리 팰리스

This was my second visit, and I am delighted to say the experience was just as wonderful as the first. The rooms are spacious, luxurious, and very comfortable. The hot water swimming pool is a highlight and made our stay even more relaxing. The staff are exceptionally courteous and attentive, always making us feel welcome. A special thanks to Manager Mr. Nihal, who was very accommodating and ensured every detail was taken care of. The food was also delicious and beautifully presented. It is rare to find such consistency in service and hospitality, and this property truly delivers. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking comfort, luxury, and genuine care. I look forward to my next stay!

We loved our one night stay here in the old governor’s bungalow on the hill. It felt as though we had stepped back in time walking into the hotel, which only has 8 rooms. Each room downstairs is filled with portraits from important figures from the past and is filled with lavish furniture. Each room is named after one of the previous governors and our room (we were upgraded) was called William Gregory and was beautifully furnished. We used the pool which was heated and had the best hilltop views over the surrounding area.Throughout our short stay, we were treated like royalty - nothing was too much trouble. Having pre-ordered our dinner when we checked in, we enjoyed eating it in the dining room where we were the only guests. The food was amazing and was presented beautifully. The staff ensured that our glasses were never empty and we enjoyed chatting with them during our evening. We only saw two other guesses whilst we were there which made us feel like we were there alone! They have a pool table in one of the rooms which we enjoyed playing in the evening. The next morning we enjoyed breakfast outside by the pool - on our own! They then gave us a bag filled with goodies for our journey which was really kind. It definitely was the best service we’ve had in Sri Lanka and one day we hope to return!
