Small and cozy boutique hotel with 6 rooms. Staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful and made the stay an absolute delight. The lake view rooms are also amazing - the ones on the ground floor especially so as they have access to a little garden that was a great place to relax in the evening. Would wholeheartedly recommend this to any traveler. The only nit was that food took a really long time - they asked for a 1 hour heads up - but they were upfront about it and we were able to plan accordingly.

Very enjoyable stay. Lovely view from balcony and staff were superb. We’re we’re greeted by Lacshan who was very accommodating and professional. He made us feel welcome, and organised for porters to take our bags and nothing was too much trouble Our evening meal was the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka. All the food was freshly prepared and superbly cooked food. Hats off to Pasindu in the kitchen. Would definitely recommend this gem of a hotel!

Great choice!

We had a wonderful stay at the Serenus Boutique Villa. The staff was over-the-top in how accommodating and attentive they were. They helped arrange transportation to Horton Plains and also to our next destination. They even packed us a lunch for our outing. The hotel was spotless and well cared for, and the breakfast was great. And the lake view was nice. It is a little way out of town but close enough to walk or get a $2 tuk tuk ride.

This boutique hotel was a great find across the lake. It was clean and seemed new. The staff was very helpful and well-trained. They helped me figure out my train schedule. Loved the rustic vibe of my room although it didn’t have the lake view like other rooms. However, there is an access to the garden area facing the lake on the same floor. Breakfast pancake was delicious.

Staff was great, service was excellent. Provided a room for our driver as well. We took the standard room which didnt have a view and room was small, comparing to all the other places in Sri Lanka. The toilet was also small. Necessities were not well provided also. We stayed in their TV lounge for a whole movie! Food was good also. View in the hotel was great too. Super cold weather :)

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Staff & service
Walkable to Gregory Lake which unfortunately was noisy, dirty, full of rubbish, have to pay an entrance fee just to walk around which takes less than an hour. Nothing else to do in the immediate area. Hotel high up in the hill, so no passing taxi/tuk tuks and not ideal for walking after dark, poorly lit area. Hotel took 2.5 hours to serve a dinner after 3 attempts at asking where it was, finally arrived, potato curry was three bits of potato in an inedible watery, incredibly salty sauce. We ordered vegetable rice and noodles as vegetarians - both arrived with chicken in. Manager very apologetic but did nothing to rectify the situation. Would not recommend hotel at all, much better options for the same price or less in the area and there is very little to do near the hotel. Better to stay closer to town.
