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.

Good service with smile. Located on the hill. Staffs are nice.

What an experience! Amazing food (mostly vegetarian) and a homey atmosphere. As expected from what we’d read about the place, we were treated to some guitar music while we drank a ginger tea. If you’re a person who likes to rush, this is not the place for you ☺️ very mellow and slow, but worth the time spent.

The food was exquisite, as was the company. 14 different types of curry on one plate? Sign me up. All family made and feels truly authentic. Sri Lanka may be a foreign land to us but the Sharon Inn makes you feel right at home. 10/10 would ride again.

We stayed at the Sharron Inn for four nights . My wife and I are from Australia. The accommodation and our stay was very comfortable with the staff and management fulfilling all our needs.The Breakfast was good and the Dinner exceptional. We were even entrained each night by the management that had a great ending to each day.Thank you Sharron Inn for your hospitality we will be back.

Went for an amazing dinner here. Some of the best food we had in Sri Lanka. A wonderful buffet style service with healthy delicious curries, veg and chicken. The host was gracious and ended the evening with some lovely guitar. Would 100% recommend.
