Jasper House

Location was fine. Yoga class by Toby was excellent

Rude, lazy staff. This is my third time in Sri Lanka and first time I met such unaccommodating people. Room falsely advertised two beds and staff didn't want to help rectify it (all they had to do was split the double bed to two, which was possible after I asked several times). Overpriced. Much better available in the area for better prices. Breakfast was poor.

Walking distance to the beach, room was very good, breakfast was good

Very close to the beach and friendly staff.

Needs aircon still too hot with open air rooms.

Jasper is heerlijk rustig, prachtig uitzicht over de jungle

Espectacular y precioso. Es una gozada tener esas ventanas al descubierto con todas las palmeras cuando te despiertas. A mi padre le preocupaba que entraran mosquitos, pero con la mosquitoes de la cama se soluciona perfectamente. El personal ha sido muy atento y nos han ayudado en todo momento. Desayuno generoso. Esperamos volver. Gracias!

Quizá habríamos añadido una neverita en el cuarto para conservar el agua fría. Pero lo demás excelente.

The location

Cockroaches, ants - the lot! Avoid this place. This is an extremely dirty hotel - do not be fooled by the instagram / photos you see online. This is absolutely not a 3 star hotel! Despite having the most amazing 3 days in Hirriketiya - we done our upmost to spend as much time away from Jaspers House as possible. My wife and I are travelling Sri Lanka for our honeymoon so finding mid-range places with a nice pool, decent enough food and clean rooms was all we needed. However, the second we entered the room we realised we had mad a mistake. It was certainly the worst place we have stayed in. This is not an exaggeration, the photos speak for themselves. The bathroom was crawling with ants - we believe down to the fact that there were dead cockroaches under the sink that they likely killed and thrown under there rather than remove. The worst part about it was it looks like a coach roach was stuck in the shower pipes - see photos. Disgusting and lazy from the staff to provide a room in this state. The staff were noisy and the breakfast is a complete waste of time. Flies everywhere, food sat out in the heat for ages - it was all disgusting. We were told this was their best room on the ground level with direct access to the pool - I would hate to see what the other rooms look like. This place is perfect for back packers looking for a cheap stay who will be partying late into the night and need a place to crash. But if you’re looking for a boutique place as a family or couple - avoid avoid avoid.

Loved the open air room with beautiful views and the sound of the sea- very relaxing. Open air bathroom was lovely- like showering among the palm trees! Staff were very helpful- at one point our shower did not work and they fixed it immediately. Room was cleaned every day and towels replaced.

It was a little hot without aircon, but we did not mind as the large fan was sufficient, although an extra fan for our daughter's bed would have been welcome. The open air rooms can be a little on the noisy side- dogs and tuktuks etc, but we were up early to enjoy the beach so it did not bother us.

The location is good and quite. Staff was very nice. I came for 2 nights and stayed for 5. Breakfast was very good. I liked the Yoga classes on the roof. I like the pool as well.

I changed rooms and they were diffrent is size and level of comfort. For example the one near the pool was small and wash room was smelly. I also didn't like the extra charge for Yoga class. I thought it should be free for the guests like in other places. When I booked I thought it's included.

La posizione è il vero vantaggio della struttura. Ad un passo dalla spiaggia principale e con ristoranti molto vicini alla struttura.

La nostra stanza non aveva le pareti frontali e tra la camera da letto e il bagno. Reception quasi sempre deserta. La stanza affaccia sulla piscina dell'hotel e con una distesa di palme di fronte, molto suggestivo se il posto fosse silenzioso. Al di là della luce che potrebbe non essere un problema, ogni mattina ci sono dipendenti che lavorano intorno alla piscina facendo molto rumore e ci sono camion che passano di continuo sulla strada su cui affaccia, impossibile dormire. Dopo aver chiesto di cambiare stanza, ci spostano in una familiare con tutte le pareti per fortuna e aria condizionata (non capisco perché una sola stanza sia così), ma la doccia non funzionava. Chiediamo di ripararla e ci viene detto di aspettare 5 minuti. Dopo 30 minuti scopriamo che tutti i dipendenti erano intorno alla piscina chiacchierando. Dopo un'ora finalmente la riparano
