Birds Paradise Inn

This place is so quiet and lovely, you have your own terrace and look at the river, the pool is very nice too (maybe not that clean, but clean enough :D). We really enjoyed our stay there, for the price it is awesome! The food was very good too, big portions and very tasty. For two people the room was a good size (2 double beds), but for four people there might be few space... Be aware of the dogs at night and close the gate if you don't want them on your terrace. We also booked our safari with the hotel, it was the cheapest we found and pretty good: 60$ for 6 hours and two people, excluding the entry for the national park. So we can recommend that place for a relaxing time and bird watching, we enjoyed it over there!

In the end there were some costs we didn't know about, like a service fee, but it wasn't that much. Maybe just make sure in the beginning what you have to pay additionaly (like water bottles)

the clean pool

rooms were dirty the bathroom awfull.

Had a good stay at Birds Inn. Perfect location for safari and very helpful staff.

I couldn't fault Birds Paradise Inn. It was conveniently close to Udawala National Park for the safari. Really friendly staff, nice comfortable room, nice food and a swimming pool for the kids to play in and entertain themselves. We only stayed the one night but it was perfect for what we needed.

Big breakfast Pool seemed nice Beautiful garden

The pictures you see on booking are very old and rooms are a bit rundown. But the worst thing is the very dirty. The light in the room was very uncomfortable as normal lights didn’t have lightbulbs. Then the wifi. No wifi in the rooms and didn’t really work properly even in the common area! We had dinner at this place. AWFUL! My boyfriend ordered tandoori chicken and it was simply fried chicken. I had chicken masala and it was Sri Lankan curry but very bad. Small amount of chicken, too salty. On top of that my rice wasn’t fresh and smelled bad. Location isn’t nice. You just have to eat at the place, the lake is close but nothing to see really. I would recommend staying in the town. We were supposed to stay for 3 nights but changed our reservation and stayed only 1 night and it was the best decision.

We had an excellent stay. We are a family with 3 small children. We asked to arranged us a transfer from Ella to the accommodation and we got a lovely driver, he arrived on time, we highly recommend him and he also drove us to the next destination. We could just trust him for a safe trip and it was an excellent Van with air conditioning and room for all our things. The place arranged us a safari tour with the guide name Lasa. The owner of the place prepared an excellent meal for us for breakfast so that we could eat at the safari, a large and delicious breakfast.  The guide Lasa was really nice, helped with everything, explained everything, made us a really good and fun experience with the kids in the safari. We highly recommend to take him.  The restaurant in the hotel is tasty, we had both breakfast and lunch and everything was delicious. Everyone is so nice and helped with everything. Highly recommend to come for hospitality

Where do I start? This place is the coziest place I have ever stayed in. The room is super clean and has a warm feeling. The staff are beyond amazing. They went above and beyond to give us such an amazing experience. The chef is so talented, and the food was really tasty. You have to stay in this place and I'm sure you will have the same experience and be amazed.We would definitely come back and recommend to stay at this place! Love u guys <3

Fantastic location, great service and lovely grounds. You will love if a bird watcher as many species in grounds. Would have loved to stay longer, recommend highly.

Nothing

Location is perfect to get early in the morning to the national park. Only 2 km away from main entrance. Just a 5 min work to the lake of the national park, where you can see at the sunset the elephants coming. The pool is also perfect after an early morning safari to relax in the afternoon. All together perfect location!

Birds Paradise Inn is an amazing place with bungalows in the middle of a big green garden. In front you have a river. You can see and hear birds, sometimes you also meet a monkey. We loved our stay there surrounded by nature and calmness. The staff was very kind and always helpful. In the morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast. We felt very welcome.
