"We stayed at the Amari at the start of our 3 week trip around Sri Lanka and then again for a couple of nights at the end of the trip. My friend and I both think the Amari was excellent. I used the gym, the pool, and ate at the roof top restaurant - all of which were good. The staff was helpful when we needed to find transportation any where. The breakfast is outstanding and is a great place to try many Sri Lankan dishes. One of the chefs told me that he specifically studied SL cuisine. All in all, I'd happily stay there again."
