Questions about breakfast & home-style dining

Something else? Call 077 756 1970 or message us on WhatsApp.

What time is breakfast served?

Breakfast is served every day from 07:30 to 10:00. If you need to leave earlier for a sunrise visit to Mihintale or an early train, tell the front desk the evening before and we will do our best to help.

Do you cater for vegetarians?

Yes. Vegetarian dishes are part of the breakfast buffet every day, and many Sri Lankan breakfast staples such as roti, pittu, kiribath and dhal curry are naturally vegetarian. Halal and Western breakfast options can also be arranged on request.

Is breakfast included in the room rate?

That depends on the rate you book. When you send a booking request, ask for breakfast and we will confirm whether it is included or what it costs per person for your dates, so there are no surprises.
