Aaradhya Mirissa

We liked it enough to extend from three nights to six, and I'd stay here again. It's almost across the street from the beach and right in the middle of the main road area, but the hotel sits on a quiet street away from restaurant music and road noise. The hotel and our room were nice and clean. The rooms could use some updates, but at this price they were fine.

We were traveling with young children and grandparents, but when we arrived the owner was rude and hostile. They'd accepted our third-party booking even though the hotel was overbooked, then refused to take responsibility or help us find another place. He ended the conversation with, “discussion is finished,” and kicked us off the property. We found a lovely little place nearby called Vrihee, so things worked out in the end. I'd absolutely recommend Vrihee.

My family spent six nights here, and we mostly came back to the room just to shower and sleep. The breakfast was basic but enough, and the rooms were okay and clean. I saw some negative reviews, but for the price it was what I expected. It's not a luxury hotel, and the location is the main reason to choose Aradhya. I had no complaints and would book it again.

The room felt cramped because of the oversized furniture, and there was barely space to move around. The stairs were very steep and tiring to climb, and there's no lift. Whenever we needed something, nobody answered the phone, so we had to go downstairs every time. It seemed like staff were avoiding calls. They also insisted on cash, saying the card machine wasn't working. The online photos shouldn't be relied on either, as the actual rooms looked very different and the pictures seemed heavily edited. The owner seemed like a decent gentleman, but helping guests didn't appear to be his priority. After two days, the place didn't feel guest-friendly, and I wouldn't recommend it.
