"Nice location and facitilities, but sadly poor bar and restaurant service was disappointing."

7.0

Great view of the ocean Lovely big pool Spacious comfortable bedrooms

The bar and restaurant staff sadly fell short of our expectations. Every day (despite the restaurant being mainly empty) we had to ask for our drinks 2-4 times to get served- even giving up one time after asking 4 times. Staff then didn’t know how to make most of the drinks on the menu. On one occasion it took 25 minutes to get our drinks (no other people in the bar) as we watched the staff watch YouTube videos on hot to make them. Usually I wouldn’t mind as much, but given that food and drinks are not cheap here we felt this was very poor service. It was also the poorest value for money breakfast we had throughout our stay in Sri Lanka (despite being none of the more expensive places). Limited options, water not served or offered (despite asking), and having to pay more for any type of breakfast add on (which was not the case anywhere else we stayed through out our trip).

"Expected more, very overpriced for what it is"

8.0

Its a beautiful property, as seen in the pictures, though slightly older.

Service. I checked in midday, there was only one waiter looking after the pool area and the bar and he did not speak english at all. The food in the restaurant is quite bad. Also when you order a meal things randomly show up on your table. For instance my side dish came first floowed by the appetiser then the main dish and then bread:(

"A luxurious stay right on the beach in Talpe!"

9.0

My wife and I enjoyed four wonderful days at the Owl and Pussycat Hotel! The room was very large and comfortable, with a view directly over the property out to the ocean. The pool was fantastic, the restaurant had a great breakfast/dinner, the staff were extra friendly, and the location was close to Galle via tuk tuk. It's also only a 400 metre walk to feed the turtles right at the beach!

There wasn't much to not like about the Owl and the Pussycat!
