"We booked 1 night at Magical Mountain Resort here on hotels.com. But apparently this hotel does not exist anymore and the one it actually is, is definitely not 3 star. When we got to the address, no signs for the hotel, so we asked around and it turns out that the hotel now is part of Punsisi Resort, which we never heard of or was informed on before arriving. After some confusion and the staff explaining that “Magical Mountain Resort” was once a hotel of its own, but now it is part of...

"There is a lot to like about the Slightly Chilled Yellow House. The staff was excellent - very knowledgeable and eager to accommodate any request. Breakfasts were very good and plentiful. The location is great - just 500m to the start of the Adam’s Peak trail. And there are other walks through tea plantations right out the door. The room was generally fine, though felt a bit tired - not run down, just not crisp. It also smelled musty."
