The staff were lovely! Warm and welcoming, helpful and efficient. Everyone we had contact with were great, in particular Sashini, Puspita, and Sahara. The pool is very nice, and the views over the lake are stunning, especially around sunset. The restaurant is nice and offers both a la carte, as well as a buffet option. We tried both options and we were very happy with the food and service. The rooms are very spacious, with a seating area and large bathroom. We were lucky enough to have a great view over the lake. The rooms are somewhat tired though, with some peeling paint, broken doors etc. Our bed was broken, but it was fixed within 30 mins of us reporting it. The hotel staff immediately said it would be fixed, if not fixed they would either change the beds or we could move rooms; which is excellent service.

We had one night here, we arrived early afternoon, checked in and went on a Safari. The hotel is located on the lake, very beautiful room. The room is nice and clean, big bathroom. The swimmingpool is also very nice. When we arrived back from our Safari, the AC was leaking so they changed us to another room and we got a suite which was really nice. Food is good, breakfast is okay, but they do make fresh omelett which was good. The next day we relaxed by the pool before check out and also experienced waterbuffaloes swimming in the lake to the hotel area which was very funny! Would definately come back to this hotel if I visit the nationalpark again, a very good value for money!

This place seems to be a serious hotel in the past, and now way after its peak. It's not neglected or dirty - but could use a serious modern lift up. It still offers an efficient reception that can arrange safari tours and taxis for you, it has a decent swimming pool with lake views which was fun, as there's not much to do in town except for safari. We did not have any meal there and frankly did not notice a dining room to know if it's even possible, but they packed a generous breakfast for our 5am safari departure. Value for money is OK. Nice views to the lake from the room. A walking distance to the best restaurant in town - Chef Lady, highly recommended.

This place is in an excellent position, overlooking the lake, about 30 to 40mins drive from the entrance of Yala national park. My room was large with a big bathroom and great views. It looks like all rooms overlook the lake. Nice open plan reception and lounge/bar area. The hotel is well-staffed with a very friendly and efficient team. I’m thankful for Sachini, who was able to arrange a morning safari at Yala for at short notice. It was with a local firm and at good price with pickup and drop off at the hotel.

Front desk staff is very friendly. Great restaurant too. I enjoyed the buffet there at night. And the service we got was excellent specially from Nimalsiri. But they are all very polite and friendly. And the view I got from the hotel room was very beautiful. You see thee whole lake from there.I would recommend Ekco Tissa to anyone who wants to stay in Tissa . From there it's very close to go to Yala too. I would like to thank the hotel staff for making our stay memorable.
