Отзывы об отеле The Notary's House

The Notary's House is a colonial boutique hotel around 45 minutes from the airport and around 30 minutes from the coastal town of Negombo. The staff were extremely attentive and made sure our stay was a relaxing one. The food was excellent and our room was fabulous. There is a small Buddhist temple a short walk away that is definitely worth a visit. We walked to the temple but were caught in a monsoon downpour when we arrived there. The hotel manager realised that we were there and sent the hotels tuk tuk to rescue us! All in all, this was a really lovely place to stay before we departed for home.

We recently stayed at Notary's House after our 11 hour flight to Sri Lanka. We stayed for one night. The Place is relaxed, serene and comforting. It is so relaxed we wished that we had booked for a longer stay. It is the perfect place to recuperate after a long flight. The staff were always on hand and the food was fantastic. The property overlooks a lake which attracts lots of birds and wildlife. I cannot recommend this property highly enough. Thank you for a great stay. Do not hesitate to book this hotel. The website does not do it justice.

Great position as only 45mins from Columbo airport. Very welcoming and helpful staff set in beautiful grounds overlooking the lake in a peaceful atmosphere. Rooms were very nice, spacious very clean and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. The food was excellent.we would definitely come back here again and would recommend this hotel . Excellent value.

This is a superb hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room large and well equipped, the bed comfortable. We only stayed one night but I would happily have stayed longer. Supper was delicious as was breakfast, with attention to the fact that our palates were not yet used to Sri Lankan spiciness.

Lovely small, boutique hotel in a beautiful setting by a large lake Lovely staff, great food, nice pool and an ideal place to start or finish your holiday in Sri Lanka as it’s only about 45 minutes from the airport

We stayed here on our first night at the start of our Sri Lanka tour. Exhausted after a long flight, the tranquil, peaceful surroundings were just what we needed to unwind and relax. The staff are wonderful, the room lovely and the setting at the edge of a lake so beautiful. We only stayed one night but could easily have spent more nights here. The proximity to the airport makes it a good start or end point to your trip.

Old style colonial building, ideal after the long flight. Relaxed atmosphere with lovely views over the lake and gardens. Food was amazing and staff were friendly and very welcoming. Great sized room

The Notary's House, no more than a 90 minute drive from Colombo Airport, proved to be the absolute best place to relax after a long flight from London. We stayed for the first two nights of our month long first visit to Sri Lanka and it really couldn't have been a better introduction to the country and its hospitality and cuisine. It has a beautiful out door dining area overlooking a lake. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone seeking calm surroundings at the start of their Sri Lanka tour.

This was the first stay on our trip and it felt like stepping back in time as the property has been maintained to allow visitors to experience what it would have been like a century ago. The rooms were elegant and beautiful with dinner setting outside under the pagoda a highlight. Service and food outstanding - traditional Sri Lankan curries and breakfast were delicious. Highly recommended.

After a long trip to reach Colombo, we were driven to this little paradise. We were welcomed by Dushan and her looked after us the whole time. The dinner and breakfast were delicious. After breakfast Dushan showed us round the organic garden. He was clearly very proud of their ethos - garden to table. Everything is fresh and tasty. We would highly recommend The Notary’s House as part of your trip round Sri Lanka.

This is a beautiful place to stay. Its location is great and sits by a small lake. The rooms are fantastic- nice and large. The food is absolutely delicious. But what tops it all are the staff- so kind, so helpful! Nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend!

Whats to say??? I rate all ten out of ten, location, room, pool,food(best ever)wild life, views over lake and20 out off 10 for the staff. Always a smile, so attentive,tour of garden, warning about walking under coconut trees, red ants nests in trees, coconut drinks, tour of veg garden and the list continues. They simply cant do enough for you. Look no further, you’ll not be dissapointed.

This 100-year old house has been a 6 room hotel for 9 years. Our room was spacious, comfortable and with a great view over the extensive, well-kept gardens with a lake beyond, home to many different birds. Breakfast and dinner were exceptional, served perfectly by friendly, professional staff. Kumar even took us to the lake edge after our evening meal to see the busy tortoise family for which he puts out food. Highly recommend this hotel.

A calm, relaxing place to begin our Sri Lankan adventure. We arrived very weary after a long trip from the UK. We were greeted with a cold towel and refreshing drink and shown to our room. The room was huge with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Dinner that evening was wonderful. A huge array of fresh curry, salads and rice. Breakfast too was delicious and we were shown around the kitchen gardens afterwards. What really gives this hotel its 5 star rating are the people that work here. They are attentive, friendly and professional. Nothing is too much trouble. It's a shame we couldn't stay longer but hope to return one day and would definitely recommend this hotel to fellow travellers.
