Sharon Inn

I don’t know who writes all of these favorable reviews. The hotel is in the middle of nowhere, you cannot see the lake from the room. The facilities inside the room all look dated and in a horrible condition. I had to put the bedroom table against the balcony door to keep monkeys from opening it while I was away. Wifi does not reach the top floors and even when you can connect at reception it doesn’t really work. They don’t accept card payment and that is a huge issue, considering how much they try to overcharge you for everything. Breakfast is very simple yet they expect you to pay 1500 rupees?! Dinner, as much as other’s praise it, is your typical curry display, and I had to ask for the chicken because they would only serve vegetables. And that was almost 4000 rupees!! I have had more varied and delicious (and cheaper) curry sets in the middle of the jungle. The worst thing is that they don’t tell you how much it is until you already have to set the bill for your whole stay. The owner was barely present and would only show up for dinner time. And he is the only one who speaks any English. Please, avoid this, it is better to find somewhere cheap near the lake, this hotel should not be listed anywhere decent.

Очень старый отель, ремонт, мебель и всё остальное. Из плюсов только близкое расположение к ж/д вокзалу и автостанции, и цена.

Best Sri Lankan food we’ve had since we arrived over a week ago. Lovely variety of flavours. Great atmosphere. Wonderful hospitality and entertainment. Friendly, courteous owner and staff. We would highly recommend a visit to Sharon’s Inn
