Fantastic stay!
Posted 1 Feb 2019 on HotelsThe team at VUD we’re amazing and went above expectations! They surprised my partner with room lights and decorations plus cake for his birthday just from noting his date of birth for checkin! It was so appreciated and unexpected! The room was huge and had everything we needed. It’s located a short walk for Galle Fort. The breakfasts were also delicious! Thanks VUD team for your kindness and lovely service. We highly recommend staying at VUD!!

Pros: The staff, the design, the art, the smell, the music, the whole atmosphere. I could live here.
Cons: Just the coffee. Sorry, Sri Lanka doesn't do the best coffee anywhere.
Location: I liked the location as it was a short walk down the hill to the markets, sea front and train station yet it was away from any noise.
I had the best time staying here. There was something about the open plan space that made me feel so comfortable. There was beautiful music playing throughout the villa and fragrant incense which just added to the awesome feel of this place. The staff were AMAZING! So friendly, so considerate and went out of their way to help and make sure I had a perfect stay. The pool and outside deck are wonderful, the rooms are huge, clean and the bed was incredibly comfortable. I planned only to stay one night but ended up staying 4 because it was just too good here. I will be coming back for sure.

worst hotel ever!!
Posted 10 Feb 2017 on Hotelsworst hotel experience ever. they don't tell you anything there and I went out for some drinks only to return at night and they locked the gate to the building and the door to the Villa.
I had to climb over gate. bang on the door until another guest opened the door for me and he wasn't happy about it. don't blame him. no staff anywhere. and the key to my door didn't work. I ended up sleeping on a couch. while trying to get my door open the key broke and I ended up arguing with the Manger next day and he made me pay for the key. it was either that or fight the guy which he was about to call the police as well
do not stay at this hotel ever!!!

Very very disappointing!
Posted 6 Jul 2016 on HotelsExtremely disappointing!! We were more than happy to leave after less than 24 hours at this hotel. Would not recommend others to stay there. Just to mention a few things:
dirty, smelly room
no wifi (in spite of the manager telling us that there was)
breakfast was re-used from a different table. Really disgusting to have old butter and toast that had already been served for someone else who knows how long ago

i am very sorry and disappointed considering the fact that i was abroad on holiday and my staff was supposed to take care of you. By the way i am happy to inform you that at the moment i got a full new staff, well trained and ready to full fill all guests needs. the only thing i can say is that i invite you here as my guest to see what is the real Villa Renaissance. Sorry again.

Nice location
Posted 5 Jan 2016 on Lastminute
Pros: A nice quiet location in walking distance to town.
Although there was no information about driver accommodation, the hotel arranged this for us.
Cons: On arrival there were no signs to indicate where reception was and we found this confusing.
The shower must be on timer and kept turning off.
We required a one night stay and this hotel was adequate for a brief stopover.
Breakfast ( included) was standard fruit and eggs. Quite okay.
