    There are downsides to paradise: The noisy generator powering the beach bar on the beach directly behind the hotel which kicked off at 8am and powered down at 11pm. If you got used to the noise there was the fumes to contend with that depending on wind direction could blow straight into your room. I appreciate none of this is the fault of the hotel but something the guests have to suffer. Also a lot of properties this end of the resort suffer from foul smelling drains / soil pipes. Once again not the fault of the hotel but if you don't have your balcony windows open to suffer that generator noise and fumes your room will stink of sewage!

    A lovely room on the third floor looking out onto the sea. One would almost think you were in paradise. Access to the beach is no longer direct clearly some access issue means you now have to walk a wee bit further out the front along the main road and down an alley way but it really is no hardship.

    Room wasn’t so clean as it should be at the price. Towels was with holes. In room was cockroaches and very much insects. Hotel is claiming that it’s beachfront but you need to go around the property by the street through another hotel to get to the beach. You can’t even get to the outdoor “gym” because it’s different property.

    Location is good and also the breakfast.

    They did not have direct beach access due to legal issues. The hotel has limited or no amenities other than room.

    The staffs are friendly. The manager Ameleka (if I am not wrong) was helpful and quickly changed our room to the 1st floor.

    The location of the hotel is very good. It's very close to the center. The staff at the hotel is lovely. Amila and his team do a fantastic job of looking after the property. The rooms are very clean airy and spacious. The overall stay was really good. We enjoyed our time there.

    Security could have been a bit more attentive.

    Sometimes, serendipity leads you to unexpected delights, and that's exactly what happened with our stay at Somerset Blue Hotel. Initially, it wasn't our planned destination, but after a booking mishap, Somerset Blue Hotel emerged as an alternative, and what a delightful surprise it turned out to be! From the moment we stepped in, the hotel impressed us with its spacious, well-appointed rooms that were clean and comfortable. The heart of Somerset Blue, however, lies in its staff. The team, especially those at the restaurant and front office, were not just professional but genuinely caring and attentive. Their warmth and helpfulness added a personal touch to our experience, making us feel truly valued and cared for. While the food was satisfactory, what stood out was the level of attentiveness with which it was served. Each meal was a pleasant experience, not just for the flavors but also for the service that accompanied it. Our stay was comfortable in every aspect. The hotel's location is conveniently situated, making it easy to explore the surroundings. The amenities provided were more than sufficient, catering to all our needs and ensuring a hassle-free stay. Additionally, considering the quality, the food was well-priced, adding to the overall value of our stay.
