"Exceptional"

10.0

Such a wonderful place. It gives you a really authentic Sri Lankan experience - although you are staying in a nice room, you feel like you're in nature and at the same time, you're staying with family in a small village, taking part in their every day life. The village walking tour is highly recommended! We learned so much about the country just from that one activity alone. The staff are all wonderful, and you won't want to leave!

Everything was great. The one minor issue is how long it takes to get food - but they are upfront about it, and recommend you to order a bit in advance. Not a big problem, and it forces you to slow down!

"It´s magic."

10.0

TheGlenrock is a magical place for us, which is not only located in a beautiful jungle landscape, but also offers the best service - always with a big smile and the “we make it happen” attitude. No wish is left unfulfilled, everything is possible. The penthouse where we stayed offers a spectacular view, the large terrace is a wonderful place to sit, and a few floors below is the restaurant with really delicious cuisine. We often saw the chefs picking herbs and salads from their own garden. So: everything is fresh and delicious. Special thanks to Asanka, who really knows no problem and always finds a solution, Thusith, who looked after us so lovingly and took us on the most beautiful tours into the jungle, always in a good mood, and Nevika, the best masseur and yoga teacher (on the roof with a view in the morning). But all the staff were also always smiling and so friendly. A magical place you won't forget.

"Above exceptional. The best place I have had the pleasure to stay at with my lovely partner."

10.0

The Glenrock exceeded by far our expectations. The customer service, attention to detail, and quality for the products and services provided were beyond excellent. The staff was attentive, friendly, and always found a way to surprise us for the best! Thusith took very good care of us, helping with recommendations and organising our tours. Pradeep provided exceptional service as yoga instructor, and massage therapist, the best we have experienced in years. The food was prepared from scratch for us, fresh quality product prepared with love and care. Options to cater any taste. We will be coming back for sure!

It felt a little bit chilly in the evening/night. I would have liked to be able to make our room a little bit warmer. But knowing this, I will be prepared for next time with warmer clothes for the colder evenings.

"Nature Escape with Amazing Food and Even Better People"

10.0

This place in Belihuloya is a real hidden gem! Tucked away in a beautiful forested area, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and get close to nature. You’ll be surrounded by lush greenery and the peaceful sounds of the forest—truly an escape from it all. The staff here were awesome—super friendly and welcoming. Big shoutout to Asanka, who went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. It’s rare to find people who genuinely care, but that’s exactly what you’ll get here. The food was just amazing! The Sri Lankan dishes, in particular, were a highlight—so much flavor, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. From delicious curries to all the classic local sides, it was honestly some of the best Sri Lankan food I’ve had. If you’re looking to relax, enjoy great food, and be around wonderful people, this place in Belihuloya is definitely worth checking out!

"Will definitely be coming back :)"

10.0

From the moment we booked at The Glenrock everything was superb. The hotel communicated with us before arrival to ask if we had any requirements and also to ensure we were clear where we were going so didn’t get lost. The location was idyllic and peaceful with access to waterfalls and walks nearby. The room was extremely comfortable and we were lucky enough to have direct access to the river from the balcony. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they were attentive without being overbearing and everyone was so friendly. The eco effort put in by the hotel was excellent with glass water bottles and refillable glass shower gels and shampoos. The food was delicious and excellent portions with the breakfasts and curry in banana leaf particular highlights. We enjoyed the experience so much we decided to stay an extra night at the end of our trip :) Special mention to Asanka who was superb throughout and an absolute credit to the place, awesome guy and hopefully meet him again the next time we stay.

Not so much didn’t like but minor points to make it even better. A slightly broader vegetarian option with protein would be welcome. They did not have the full range of drinks available but this could well have been because it was the off season. More for info, but if a strong WiFi connection is important then you will be struggling, it was ok for WhatsApp calls but did keep dropping out during then. That said it is a nature retreat so hopefully this isn’t too important!

"Beautiful, Great Food, Wonderful Staff"

10.0

To feel at peace, calm and be one with nature - this is your place. Lovely modern, very comfortable accommodation & facilities. The location was stunningly beautiful surrounded by nature & centrally located for any activities, ie walk to the local village; not too far to drive to Waterfalls; we loved the morning Yoga; etc The staff incredibly knowledgeable; very friendly, kind, caring, accommodating, & professional. Loads of flexibility around dining, ie on the day of leaving we had to leave early for our train journey and we couldn’t do breakfast so the staff organised the most beautiful packed brunch for us to take with us for our train journey - we loved everything from the fresh sandwiches; gorgeous fruit and yummy pancakes. They were so incredibly kind and thoughtful and organised our transport to Haputale to ensure we got our train to Kandy. We will definitely 💯 be coming back as our stay was so comfortable and relaxing we didn’t want to leave. We cannot thank Asanka, Nilantha & Pradeep for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable.

We loved it! This property was everything it said it would be and more.

"Authenticity & comfort in wonderful Sri Lankan village"

10.0

The facility is one thing but the staff, the complimentary aspects, the care and attention of everyone was fantastic. From the manager, to the driver, the restaurant staff, the chefs, everybody is kind, patient, hospitable and knowledgeable about the surroundings. It is a wonderful mix of comfortable stay with facilities and immersion into nature. The one hour massage, the yoga session, the tour in the village with the local guide were all extra perks that we enjoyed thoroughly. We even asked for traditional coconut pancakes for breakfast and the chefs prepared a delicious meal every time. They shared local snippets with us about the flora, fauna and culture of the region, we visited the temple and the rice fields, the school. The manager and the staff were always attentive with our needs and questions, they drove us and picked us up from the locations. We cannot recommend the place enough, truly! It's been the highlight of our three-week Sri Lanka trip so far. It is not just an accommodation, it's a story in itself 🙏♥️

Location, the service of the staff were up to our expectations and the amenities were excellent. However we would suggest more varieties to be included in the three meals.
