Disappointing
No WiFi in room  Food served with hair and salty, however our waiter Suzee has been excellent and has turned tge bad experience jnto somthing memorable. He is an asset to this hotel. Passengers train going through the compound day and night. Yes you have heard it correctly.  No do not disturb sign so get knocked regularly by staff to check if you had ordered beer etc... Set this aside the beach is excellent, however very dirty which was a put off. Would i return no.

Wunderbar Beach Hotel is a very nice hotel in an excellent location, right on the beach. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and it was kept very clean. Breakfast was very good and SuzieLee was an excellent waiter. Unfortunately dinner wasn’t particularly good and it’s a little way into town.

My daughter and I had a great week at Wunderbar Hotel and decided to spend a few more days because we loved the beach and setting so much. The staff was extremely helpful, arranged pretravel Covid testing, and airportbtransfer for us. We always felt safe on the beach and property, there was a staff member on duty at the beach every day, and plenty of lounge chairs, beach towels and umbrellas to stay comfortable. I would definitely return!

The hotel room is very spacious, but the railway became extremely busy during my stay. The railway is located right next to the beach and the train turned into a live water monitor. The hotel stay was restless and exhausting. Even when I left the hotel, their taxi driver also play tricks by skipping from the express highway. It seemed that sth. was going on there like the mania from the new year event.

When I booked the hotel from Expedia they mentioned that it was a 4 stars hotel. But when I arrived it was catastrophic. Unclean towels, no bed covers, very dirty place lot of insects on the bed. I was shocked. It was the biggest disappointment of my life! But I said, let's stay! Let's try a new experience! But I couldn't. I lost temper and patience. I decided to leave back to my country on the same day. Sri Lanka is a nice country but this disgusting hotel pushed me to leave. I lost my money and got frustrated because of a filthy disgusting hotel! Why to hell do you say it's a 4 stars?! I really wanted to stay in Sri lanka to explore its beauty but I couldn't! It's never a 4 stars hotel! It's an old abandoned dirty house!
