The pool was just being finished when we stayed here. It will help because it is a bit removed from restaurants and the town in general. If there for a safari to Yala, they will arrange that for you (at a slightly higher price than in town) ##### Roodolfo Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 9 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Sehr neu und sauber, tolles Management Wir suchten eine Unzerkunft in Tissamaharama, um am nächsten Tag auf Safari zu gehen. Das Hotel River Front liegt zwar etwas abseits der Stadt, aber das ist völlig egal, da das Zentrum von Tissamaharama ohnehin nicht sehenswert ist und es dort auch keine empfehlenswerten Restaurants gibt. Die Managerin machte alles möglich. Wir bekamen am nächsten Tag ein Breakfast- Pack morgens um 4:30 Uhr gebracht und konnten so die Safari starten. Das Haus ist wohl neu und dazu sehr gut gepflegt. Es ist die Managerin und ihre Mitarbeiter, die alles hervorragend im Griff haben: Immer liebenswert, immer freundlich und serviceorientiert. Das Frühstück und auch die übrigen angebotenen Mahlzeiten sind hervorragend. Wir würden immer wieder hierher kommen. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Marcus 26 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfekt för en natt med safari! Rent och fint hotell, passar bra för att kombinera med safari i yala. Tyvärr är maten inte så bra här och det finns inget i närheten heller. ##### Marcus ### 6/10 Okay #### John 19 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Good location for safari The reason for coming to this area was to visit Yalla national park. The hotel organised an excellent half day safari for us with a really good, knowledgeable guide. This was really helpful as there were so many touts offering trips it could have been a nightmare. The accommodation was adequate, the staff friendly and helpful. All in all it provided good value for money. ##### John ### 10/10 Excellent #### claude 14 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent Magnifique petit hôtel presque familial, récent et bien entretenu. Le jardin à l'arrière est très agréable. L'accueil par la jeune Manager est excellent et tout le personnel est charmant et se plie en quatre pour nous faire plaisir. Chambre grande, très propre, arrangée avec goût. Lit ultra confortable. Je recommande très fortement cet hôtel. ##### claude ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roger, Knoxville, TN 28 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A modern hotel with a traditional touch. Just minutes off the main road, you enter through an impressive gateway and see in front of you an almost fairytale structure, set in a tropical garden. Large rooms with cold drinks always available. FYI however, I suspect that it's a little walk to town or anywhere else if you don't have a car. ##### Roger ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marita 27 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bekvämt och rent Mycket bra hotell, trevlig personal det var ett familjehotellet med 10 rum och väldigt hög standard. De serverade god mat i sin restaurang. Fixade med utflykt till Yala och taxi service. ##### Marita ### 10/10 Excellent #### Azim j sarangi 16 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Oasis in the Jungle! Amazing property run by a very nice Family. Service superb. Breakfast nice. We were there during the Poas(Full Moon) and the family kindly invited us to the Big Buddha Temple in the evening which was very special!

Acaba de inaugurar y nos dijeron q es de la misma cadena. Es superior: habs grandes, piscina y buen restaurante (cenamos buen pescado). Visitamos el River Front y nos llamó la atención la casa en árbol. Tiene muy buena pinta. Vistas a río y arboleda, pero muchos mosquitos (repelente a tope). Además organizan safaris a Yala en jeep propio de calidad a buen precio: $40/persona con entradas a Parque incluidas. Te preparan pack desayuno para llevar si madrugas para Safari (5am). Está alejado de Tissa pero es una opción muy buena en calidad/precio ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1150-p4326a290-d50f-11e6-81c2-9ac011b92c68-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Clement 27 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay.

We only spent one night but we would have stayed longer with no problem. The room was clean and new, we had a small terrace off our room and they were doing some renovations in the backyard so it will look great outside as well. The staff was friendly and were willing to meet our every request. We had dinner delivered to the tables on the second floor outside our room, and after a long, hot day, the cold beer was very welcome. Breakfast was very good as well. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 17 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Bon hôtel, bon accueil L'hôtel est situé dans une zone hôtelière, un peu en retrait de Tissa (autre village). ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### SKØNT LILLE FAMILIE EJET HOTEL Super dejligt lille famile ejet hotel med smilende og rare mennesker og som ydede en god service.
