Very satisfied, very amazing! The hotel was originally built in 1967 and designed by Asia's most outstanding architect, Geoffrey Bawa. The hotel reopened in December 2019, trying to preserve the original appearance of Bawa's buildings, recreating the famous batik ceiling entrance, and the brass peacock sculpture created by Laki once again stands on the stair railings of the restaurant. The 30 rooms in the main building have been converted into 16 suites, L-shaped, overlooking the Indian Ocean to the west and the Bentota River to the north. If you are an architect, it is recommended to stay in a suite, because the other two guest rooms are newly built later. We talked to Bawa at the front desk, and the hotel employee Sanduri gave a forty-minute tour, telling us every detail, trying to number each brick and then rebuild it as it was. In short, everything was very touching.

We stayed in this hotel because of Dakabawa. Overall it was average. Although it was between the river and the sea, the environment was not satisfactory. The overall management was a bit chaotic and the service was not up to par.

The hotel is great, I recommend it~ Cinnamon Beach in Bentota, the work of Bawa, the father of Asian architecture, faces the lake on one side and the sea on the other. It is very, very large. The interior of the hotel is also worth a visit. I love the ceiling that you can see as soon as you enter the door. It is paved with traditional Sri Lankan batik cloth. It is super~~~beautiful
