We had a one of a kind experience at the Governor’s Mansion. The property is extremely beautiful and welcoming, with exceptional rooms and service. We were very well looked after by Yoga, who did a wonderful job with us. And the kitchen offered delicious Sri Lankan food as a part of its menu. The hotel is very nicely positioned, providing access to many walks and hikes, while also being an experience in and of itself, with relax, beautiful surroundings and activities. Fully recommended for anyone looking to be pampered to the fullest.

Trip Advisor informed me that I cannot include the bellicose correspondence from the hotel management. So, this is my second version that excludes quoting the nasty belligerent emails to my initial feedback. The rough track is dangerous! Only suitable for Jeeps and maybe buses with very big wheels. When raining, all the holes are full of water and not visible. In front of our car, as it bucked and weaved to traverse this nightmare route on a wet night, a motor-cyclist hit one of these concealed holes and fell off and nearly went over the edge. It is NOT a road! No wonder the hotel is mostly empty. This place is trying to capitalise on its past colonial glory of the 19th century, when there may have been a safe road. By contrast, some staff are attentive and the room and food are ok. Having made my serious mistake of booking for 3 nights, we were stuck there until we escaped on the third day in daylight.

Such a gorgeous place. Food was the best we have had out of all ***** hotels I have stayed at. Staff were so obliging. We could not believe such a unique place exists in Sri Lanka. Love to stay again for a family reunion. We are planning for a longer stay at Governor’s Mansion.

My family and I had a great time here. The. Rooms were spacious with comfortable beds. We enjoyed playing tennis and chess in the game room. The hounds are meticulously kept with a beautiful garden. The food is great and service is excellent.

We travel the world. Completed twice around the world recently. Our family stay at Governor’s Mansion was the BEST EVER. Look forward to returning with family again. There is no location like where the hotel is, the cleanliness, cuisine, service and the facilities.

GM should stand for Great Memories!
+++ Absolutely magnificent place with a wonderful history. The wooden features are beautiful and the bedrooms are outstanding. Wonderful snooker table and fireplaces. Lovely garden where you can sit and enjoy afternoon tea. The staff, especially Sameera, were absolutely excellent- they couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you again Sameera, we will hopefully see you again one day!
- Only slight negative is that it could have more photographs of the historical figures or building itself going up the walls.
