I enjoyed a tranquil stay here with great service and high standards : Delicious food from breakfast to dinner. Comfortable accommodation with beautiful details. Lovely long hotel pool. Wonderful spa treatments. Recommended bird-watching walk with hotel’s nature guide, but I just wanted to stay in to enjoy the place. Tip: do secure spa session as I understand there are at most two masseuses available. A hilltop hideaway, I am sure Malabar Hill meets the needs of the holiday maker, whether seeking Romance, Relaxation, spa Rituals or Rest after exploring the wetlands.

Beautifully run hotel with stunning views , food and staff ! Loved the whole experience and enjoyed the stay so much. Bravo team MH and a particular mention to the GM whose attention to detail makes this place so wonderful. It's a true pleasure to be looked after so well.

Great place to have a special lunch. Everything is great from food to service. Only thing to be aware of, it is not a place for people who cannot walk very well, but it is definitely worth it when you get there. It is rare to find a place which has consistency

The rooms are just as beautiful as the photos, I loved this hotel and out of 5 we visited in Sri Lanka, some very high end, this was up there with my favourites. It’s beautiful, relaxed and has everything you could possibly need, I will definitely be back. The food is great and the service is fantastic, I loved it here.

Malabar hill gets everything right. The service is impeccable and unobtrusive. They look out for the little details. You take a swim and when you come back water is waiting for you without having been asked. They wait until you go to breakfast and clean your room then. Nothing is too much trouble. You want to have dinner in a different place to the restaurant, no problems. Not sure how to get somewhere, they don’t explain how to go, they take you. This is the gold plated standard of luxury. Then it comes to the basics. Perfect bedding. Fantastic food. And very good value for money. It’s not cheap but it’s worth every penny. We wanted to stay longer. Room 113 is the room to ask for. Lovely views, very private. That said, I wouldn’t think there is much in it. The only thing I would have liked extra would have been a bath. We had a massive thunderstorm on our first nice and a bath during a thunderstorm is always wonderful. But that’s splitting hairs! Come and try - you won’t want to leave.

We went here for a birthday lunch and it was an amazing experience. The place and the food quality, service..everything was excellent. The recommendations of the staff were spot on and I would recommend the mango cheesecake for dessert :) Next time we will come back to stay as well!

We spent two days here and were enchanted from the moment we were taken up the steep road to the hotel from its gate by the hotel tuktuk. Stunning views towards the sea from the luxurious terrace and restaurant and also from our room across tranquil wetlands to the hills beyond. The room was spacious and decorated with a lovely calming palette. Staff were highly professional and very friendly and we enjoyed excellent food and cocktails. Mendis the ex security guard naturalist is a credit to the property and the country. He was charming and knowledgeable about the local birds and plants on a wetlands walk from the hotel base which was a highlight. We also used the hotel bikes for a short leisurely cycle around the peaceful villages. Massages at the spa and a morning yoga session were also of really high quality. There can’t be many better hotels in Sri Lanka. A super relaxing spot and easy access to the beach. Wished we could stay longer.
