These hotels get recommended for this need, but recent guest reviews didn't back that up. Honest guidance, not a hit list.

Despite strong positive guest reports of vegan accommodation and custom dishes, the hotel has been gated as excluded for vegan-friendly status due to insufficient evidence of systematic offering or marketing. Guests praised staff effort and custom catering, but specialty vegan products (vegan cheese, premium ice cream) and clear desert labeling were noted as gaps.
Coco Bodu HithiOften listed as vegan-friendly, but recent guest reviews didn't back this up.
Guest reports are mixed on vegan accommodation: some praised abundant vegan options and attentive staff (TripAdvisor), but others noted limited buffet variety, unclear labeling, and staff unfamiliarity with vegan requirements (TripAdvisor, Google).
