We stayed for 5 nights. Generally the stay was good but the hotel was a let down a little by the cleanliness of the rooms and that it felt a little tired. Service was good and any issues we had (noisy room and broken bathroom door) were sorted quickly enough. Wifi only worked close to the common areas in the hotel, our rooms were too far away.

We booked the luxury penthouse suit only to discover it was across from the main hotel and up 2 sets of spiral staircases. The room was small and dark the bathroom has a terrible smell with the bath leaking everywhere due it having a crack. Asked for our money back after 1 night as we were due to stay 6 after standing my ground the gave a some of our money back .

The property is average but a crowded place with 2 swimming pools and littl garden. The room we booked, Super Deluxe Cabana, was a larger room the nect level down seemed better value. The WiFi is only avaalable around the pool and lobby area which was a bit incovenient. When we arrived the re was a broken chair in the room only one glass, none in the bathroom no spoon for tea/coffee making aircon ws note really big enough for the space. Most of this was rectified but needed the manager, who was not a very friendly sole and evasive, to intervene.

Good value hotel
Good location within close distance to bars and restaurants. Hotel has lovely public areas - gardens are beautiful, 2 lovely pools with sun loungers and umbrellas, dining and bar area clean and welcoming. All staff were very pleasant and professional. Good choice of breakfast items and all very tasty. We only eat dinner one evening at the hotel but food was plentiful and well presented and good quality. We were early for check-in and were given a welcome drink and cold towel and the staff worked quickly to getting us in quickly, and we were given a free upgrade of room. There were only 2 downsides - the jacuzzi bath (with overhead shower) was cracked so you had to be careful were you stood when having a shower, and a couple of the room chairs were broken . Very small items and these didn't spoil the overall experience. Overall, it's a lovely hotel and very good value for money.

Good hotel in a great location
First impression when we got to our room was not so good as we were in the main older building. We were upgraded to a super deluxe room which was huge with a kitchen and lounge area but it was very dark so at first we though not so good (quantity over quality). But, after all curtains and nets were opened and lights put on we realised how lucky we were. Our own massive private balcony overlooking one of the pools was great. Nice to be able to sit in the lounge part when the heat on the balcony proved too much. Two nice pools, nice relaxed atmosphere. Great breakfast, best out of the 7 other hotels we used throughout our tour of Sri Lanka by a good measure. Location is very good with lots of little and great restaurants on your doorstep. Short walk to the beach and nice bars etc there. Overall very happy and would return is ever back in the area.

Disappointing hotel
This hotel was the biggest disappointment of our trip. The rooms were fine but a little dirty and the bathroom needed a really good scrub. The location was fine, facilities were fine but the pool was really cloudy/dirty on our 3rd day there and after telling staff twice they did nothing. There didn't seem to be a manager at this hotel and the staff are what really let it down...if this hotel was properly run it could have been great. The staff here just really don't seem to care about their guests at all.

We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. It is a little bit of a walk to the beach but wasn't, a problem for us. Lovely pool and we are in the hotel one night which had a good selection of steak options which was a great change from the norm and was very tasty. Also nice friendly service from staff

Two great pools
Hotel is set about 5 min walk from the beach and is nice and quiet away from all those beeping horns. 2 great pools to pick from in a garden setting. Rooms are bungalow style and could do with some slight maintenance. We only stayed one night and would have been happy to stay longer but they were booked out for 2 weeks over New Years.

Leaking roof and cockroaches
We decided to have a nicer hotel for our last days in Sri Lanka. First night they put us in rooms which were a complete disaster! We couldn't sleep all night because the roof was leaking water. Water was dripping on us and all our clothes and bags got wet as well. Then in the middle of the night when we turned the lights on there were COCKROACHES in our bed!! That was just sick and this night was the worst accommodation experience that we have had in our lives!! Second night we got upgraded to a suite because we refused to stay in that room any longer. Althought it took us almost 5 hours to wait for the hotel manager and new room so our last day in Sri Lanka was ruined by waiting the hotel manager with our stuff in the lobby and no sleep before the last day.

Rauhallinen perhehotelli
Hotelli on rauhallisen sivukadulle varrella, hieman kaukana rannasta. Ympärillä on paljon rehevää kasvillisuutta, oravia, liskoja lintuja... Huoneemme oli mukava moskiittoverkkoineen ja siivoojamme teki todella hyvää työtä. Palvelu oli nopeaa ja joustavaa. Buffetaamiainen oli monipuolinen, söimme muutaman kerran päivällistä ravintolassa ja illalla palvelu oli hieman hidas, mutta ruoka hyvää. Lähistöltä löytyy kaikki tarvittava, mutta kapea katu, jonka varrella palvelut ovat, on vilkkaasti liikennöity, jopa hieman vaarallinen. Hotellia voi suositella lämpimästi. Rantaan kannattaa mennä tuk-tulilla, joitain paljon ja helposti saatavissa. Wi-Fi oli hieman hidas meidän huoneessamme.

Hyggeligt familiehotel, fantastiske pools
Dejlig roligt hotel tæt på både forretninger og stranden. Til trods for en del trafik op ad dagen kunne det ikke høres fra hotellet. Værelset var rigtig stort, dejligt med et skrivebord og køleskab (dette var dog ikke gjort rent for nyligt). Badeværelset ligeledes stort, men man skulle stå op i boblebadet for at bruse sig. Dette medførte en del vand, der løb under karret og ud over gulvet, så man skulle ligge håndklæder dels for at holde fødderne tørre, men også for ikke at falde på det våde gulv. Stor balkon de stole og lille bord. God plads til at hænge håndklæder og badetøjet til tørre. Hotellet har to fantastiske pools, som vi brugte rigtig meget. Den ende pool var lavt i den ene ende, som er godt, hvis man har mindre børn med. Gode liggestole med parasoller rundt om begge pools, flot beplantning rundt omkring. Morgenmaden var mangeartet og i rigelige mængder. Rigtig velsmagende kaffe, dejlig kolde juice, frugt m.m. Tjenerne meget opmærksomme og yderst venlige. Hjælpsom receptionspersonale. God lobby med behagelige sofaer, desværre kun fri wi-fi i lobbyen som virkede rimeligt. Rart hotel hvor der var plads til alle. Dele af hotellet kunne godt trænge til en opfriskning, samt udskiftning af bl.a. myggenettet over sengene. Dels var der huller i, men kunne også have trængt til en grundig vask. En del af håndklæderne var lidt for forvaskede efter min smag. A/C larmede en del.Den daglige roomservice var fin. De gjorde værelset og sengene helt fint i orden.

Kivat uima-allas alueet ja puutarha.Hyvä aamiainen ja illallisella hyvä ja edullinen ruoka. Illallisen hintaan sisältyi alku- ja jälkiruoka. Erittäin hyvä viinilista. Infossa makoili pahalle haiseva koira, joka oli hotelli väen hoidossa. Huoneessa oli kerran torakka ja parvekkeella muurahaisia ym. Kylkyhuoneen kaadot väärät, joten vesi jäi seisomaan altaaseen ja vedenpaineet heikot. Meidän majoitus oli perimmäisen talon 2. kerroksessa. Varmaan mukavampi huone olisi ollut oma bungalow tyyppinen huone omalla terassilla. Mutta kaiken kaikkiaan mukava hotelli ja ystävällinen henkilökunta.

I stayed one night there. Room was not the cleanest one but okay. Wifi does not work in the rooms, only in the lobby and (sometimes) at the pool area. Breakfast was clearly better than average in Sri Lanka. Staff was really nice and I got free late check-out until 6PM. Location is decent and many nice restaurants are close by and the beach is not far away either. They close one of the two entrances at 11PM and it was difficult to find the other one. Perhaps they should tell that during check-in.

Mycket nöjda!
Tillbringade 5 nätter på Flower Garden. De första två nätterna i en bungalow där badrummet sett sina bästa dagar, vatten läckte ut från wc, möss åt på vår tandkrämstub och en stor spricka i jacuzzin. De försökte fixa det men utan att lyckats, vi blev flyttade till ett liknande rum och hade en fortsatt bra tid på hotellet. Efter förhandlingar blev kompensationen en middag med vinflaska på hotellet. Restaurangen levererade kött högt över förväntan och middagen blev mycket lyckad! Stället ligger tyst bortom myllret och få störande ljud på natt eller morgon. 8-10min promenad till stranden. Glöm inte bort att besöka djungel beach som är mycket lugnare än stora stranden.

Dåligt wifi
Firade nyår på Flower Garden. De bjöd på fantastisk buffé och tillhörande traditionell dans. Kvällen avslutades med ett nyårsfyverkeri som vi sent kommer glömma. Vi försökte få tips om bra restauranger men upplevde inget större engagemang i denna fråga. Hotellets wifi var det sämta av alla hotell vi stannade på. Barnen var mycket missnöjda.

Dejlig oase lidt væk fra støj fra gaden og strande
Vi boede 5 dage med vores piger på 10 og 12. Vi havde et stort familieværelse med to kæmpestore dobbeltsenge og et stort badeværelse med spa. Det er et dejligt hotel med god mad. Vi havde halvpension og der var både pizza til børnene og gode curry retter. Vi var der juleaften og der var en stor buffet og underholdning med Kandy trommer og dans. Gode pools og meget serviceminded personale. Alle var søde og hjælpsomme. Det er 10 min gang fra stranden. En tuk tuk koster 8 kr. For os var det utrolig dejligt at trække os tilbage til hotellets have og pools efter en lang dag i solen. Hotellerne og barerne på stranden spiller tit høj musik til sent, så for os på familieferie var Flower Garden helt perfekt.

Siisti hotelli, ystävällinen henkilökunta
Siisti hotelli lyhyen matkan päässä rannasta. Huoneeseen ei kuulunut häiritsevää melua ulkoa. Hotellin toinen uima-allas oli likainen, mutta koska meri oli lähellä, emme sitä olisi käyttäneetkään. Hotellin sisäpihalla oli iltaisin kohtalaisesti moskiittoja. Henkilökunta hymyili jatkuvasti ja auttoi mielellään. Huone oli mukava ja ilmastointi pelasi hyvin. Henkilökunta siivosi huoneen päivittäin. Aamupala koostui tuoreista hedelmistä, kahvista, mehusta, paahtoleivästä ja vapaavalintaisesta kananmuna/pannukakkuruoasta. Pidimme aamupalaa oikein hyvänä. Muu ruoka oli keskinkertaista. Mikäli varaa hotellin kautta retkiä eri kohteisiin, kuten luonnopuistoon, kannattaa sanoa tiukasti, haluaako matkalla nähdä muita nähtävyyksiä. Nämä nähtävyydet ovat usein maksullisia ja järjestäjä yrittää väkisin viedä turisteja niihin.

Je pense que c'est le plus agréable de Unawatuna, les chambres DELUXE, sont bien, mais quand on voit les CABANAS qui sont charmants très agréables et de bon confort on regette d'avoir réservé la chambre... nous avons prolongé notre séjour (réservé pour 3 nuits) de 4 nuits en CABANAS.... super! LA CUISINE EST DELICIEUSE inutile d'aller sur la plage manger du poisson grillé, on peut en 'avoir sur place et très bien présenté pour moins cher que sur la plage, de plus une salade en entrée et un dessert sont souvent offert. restaurant parfait.
