Queens Ark

Staff welcomed & cared for us like family with warm, open hearts. The balcony had beautiful views to wake up to of the mountains with local wildlife like deer & birdsong. There are steps to a private & pristine nature area with clear, clean flowing water for sitting or swimming. The manager Patun & owner Renuka were exceptionally kind & professional. The restaurant & housekeeping services were just wonderful. Good connections were offered for local tours to waterfalls & temples at great prices. Hotel location is a short journey to the pilgrimage climbing Sri Pada mountain. Outstanding value for money offering highly affordable accommodation. A large spacious double room with very good furnishings. Hot water & a quality bathroom. Thank you so much for having us. I would absolutely recommend this hotel.

Very closed to Adams Peak .. coffee or tea available before your early start . Big rooms with good view . We had dinner and breakfast , both were delicious and great value for money . The staff are very friendly and helpful .

Great value for money . Can’t fault it

Abi welcomed us exceptionally well; he is really kind and attentive. The room is simple but comfortable, with a lovely balcony offering a beautiful view of the mountains. We appreciated being able to enjoy a late check-out—thank you for the flexibility!

The exterior of the property was under construction during our stay, which didn’t look very inviting. It’s possible to have dinner on site, but the quality of the meals is average.

The location.

- they were difficult to contact when we tried to call them to get directions. This made getting to the property extremely challenging. - the property still needs more renovations. Parts were incomplete. - the quality of the towels, toiletries and bedding were not of an expected standard. - the worst part was the breakfast. We weren’t told if it is included in the price or not. We weren’t shown a menu or given an idea of the cost. Thus it was surprising to be given an unexpectedly high bill, especially when we could have bought something to eat at a much cheaper price from near by restaurants. We didn’t want breakfast and ate very little of it. This lack of transparency amounts to exploiting the niceness of guests.
