stay here! 😀
Superb stay! The staff were friendly & helpful & the hotel has a relaxed feel that makes it hard to leave! The beach area is accessed via a short alleyway & if you ask at reception, they will put an umbrella up by the sun loungers for you. The only thing that can be improved is the Wi-fi connection inside the room.

Awful place, WiFi advertised was so slow it unusable. Electrics in room dependent on let putting in slot but every hour you needed to remove card and renter meaning during night aircon would turn off. Around pool there are ponds of stagnent water which attract mosquitoes so pool is unusable. Worst still is in heavy rain these ponds overflow into pool contaminating pool water. Breakfast dry, bland, cold and inedible. Worst food we have had in Sri Lanka by a long way. Booked excursion to see dolphins. Told to be in reception for 5:50am.arrived at 5:45 and made ourselves known, told to wait and tour company would pick us up by bus to take us to beech. At 6:10am no tour company but told on way. 6:30 still no tour company and then told that the boat had broken down. Then told to come back next day. Explained that was impossible as we were leaving at 8am but had to argue over getting a refund. Eventually they agreed and asked me to comeback at 7am.at 7am asked to come back at 7:30" refused so they refunded and apologised for failing to book with tour company so the boat breaking down was a lie. Due to this we missed going out to see dolphins which was the main reason we came to trinco

We arrived after a long journey and were glad we picked this hotel for our first night stay. Just a 1 minute walk to the beach was great as was the onsite swimming pool. We ate at the hotel and could not fault the meal, presentation or the staff. The personal sitting out area outside the room was also a nice touch. Staff were excellent. All in all a good choice.

relaxing stay and would recommend it to others
We stayed here out of season and had a great time. The staff could not do enough for us. As it was out of season all food was to order which made a nice change from the huge breakfast buffets at other hotels. There are quite a few local bars and restaurants to get good food as well within walking distance. Good large swimming pool with some seating around and a short walk to the beach. A great sandy beach a delight to swim / body surf on it. The gardens are gorgeous with the most beautiful flowers and well maintained. They regularly spray to keep down the mosquitos - we had no problems while we were there with them. Some of the decor is a little weather worn but as they were out of season they were doing some work on it. The finish is the bathroom is not good with incomplete seals on the showers therefore I managed to flood the bathroom, partly because of the force of the shower as it was great. Wifi - they seem to have 2 networks so if you want to use it in your room and the bar / restaurant log in to both. Overall we had a very relaxing stay here and would recommend it to others.

Great location
Very nice room in a beautiful location. Staff all very nice and helpful. Breakfast was pretty good, a mixture of western and Eastern buffet and fresh made omelets. Dinner was average but 3 times the price of the local restaurants which are tastier in my opinion.

Awesome relaxing stay in clean hotel
We booked this hotel for a couple of days to just relax. It has a great pool and beach is a two minute walk. Both have beds for hotel users only. As it was very quiet when we were there, we had such a relaxing stay! The rooms were very spacious, comfortable and clean. We unfortunately had a room next to reception and it was very noisy ealry in the morning as guest left and arrived and we heard the reception phone ringing all the time. Rooms aren't very soundprove. Location was perfect for us. There are plenty of restaurants and beach bars around and also a small supermarket within a 2 min walk. Overall, very good stay for a very reasonable price. Just try to get a room away from reception.

Great beach hotel
Great hotel, excellent service and facilities. Very clean and right on the beach. Really great place to relax. Only thing is that food wasn’t as tasty as other places but I think this is because it’s been de spiced for western tourists.

Beautiful place and a treat for lap swimmers
I had planned for four days; I extended to eight. The swimming pool is beautiful. I swam laps every day. Room is spotless, staff is very friendly and helpful, short path to the beach, nice balcony overlooking the pool. Very relaxing. The wifi could be improved. I had good reception from the balcony, but spotty in the room. I felt like the place was a really good value. I plan to be back. Trincomalee is a nice place to visit. The train ride up was spectacular (but you need to get up early to catch the train from Colombo). A special treat for vegetarians. Rice N' Curry maybe 400meters away offers a nightly vegetarian buffet for about $5 US. It is spectacular. Some very exotic vegetables, very well prepared, and all you can eat.

We had an OK stay
The hotel was generally clean and tidy. It has it's own path to the beach which is nice but it is by no means on the beach. We have a young family and breakfast didn't start until 7:30am which was much too late for our liking. Whilst I am on the topic of breakfast make sure to add it into your package as it is reasonably expensive to add on later. Overall I would say that it was ok but would not go back

Stylish hotel close to the beach
The hotel is quite stylish for this part of Sri Lanka, and the location was good - close to the beach, with a nice pool area for relaxing. Breakfast was good, although we didn't eat any other meals here as we preferred to eat on the beach itself. The room was fairly basic, but comfortable enough. Service was good, and a trip to Pigeon Island and tuktuks to Trincomalee were arranged easily at reception. Having looked at the Trinco Blu hotel up the beach, we're glad we chose to stay here.

Nice & Clean Hotel.Illumination was excellent.
It is a nice place to stay. Cleanliness was very important. Both myself and my wife were very happy. Staff were very god and friendly. The most important to me was the illumination of the pool area. The free moving of Rabbits was another attraction. Breakfast was reasonably good. Looks like more improvements could be done.
