Kassapa Lion's Rock ★★★★

📍 Digampathana, Kimbissa, Matale

"The hotel was quite nice; the owner of the courtyard had a charming atmosphere. The breakfast was also very good. There were many small animals—squirrels, several kinds of birds, and even a peacock, although it wasn't displaying its plumage, haha. You could see Sigiriya Rock."

"The environment is really nice, the facilities are old and not very clean. The service is OK. There are 2 swimming pools, and I recommend the one inside the hotel. There are little monkeys, squirrels, and little lizards. The food is average, but the price is OK."

Liyya Water Villas ★★★★★

📍 Gallendora Road, Dambulla

"First, this hotel is in a very remote location, with nothing nearby, making it difficult to get around. Secondly, the hotel's design clearly shows a lot of effort, but it's not well maintained. We were moved four rooms in one day. Within 10 minutes of checking in, they told us there was a plumbing problem. After a long wait, they moved us to a different room type. After checking in, we still had no water. In the third room, large bugs kept dropping onto the bed and onto our bodies throughout the night, which was terrifying. We finally got our final room cleaned and changed after 10 PM. We finally got some sleep, but the next morning, the stationary hair dryer was broken again! We had our laundry done, and they told us we didn't need to iron it, only wash it. But when we checked out, they still charged us for the ironing! Luckily, my husband had texted them about our request via What's Up, and they were able to get rid of the extra charge. This completely delayed our plans for the better part of a day!"

"For the price, it's acceptable. But next time, for convenience, I'd prefer to go to Lion Rock, which is closer and offers better views."

"This amazing hotel is a hidden gem. We got a great discounted price thru Trip.com and ended up adding dinner. The food was amazing, so much to choose from, and great quality. As a swimmer, I really appreciated the 72 metre pool (U kid you not)!"

Eden Grand ★★★
"The service attitude of the store is very good (it should be a store independently operated by the owner). After arriving at the store, I was given a glass of watermelon juice (free). There is a small terrace outside the room. The most abundant thing is breakfast. The photos and scenes on Ctrip have a relatively high degree of restoration."

Amaya Lake Dambulla ★★★★★
"It was such a wonderful hotel that I would like to stay there again. The grounds were spacious, with cottages surrounded by greenery, and there were monkeys and birds. It's along the lake, so the scenery is beautiful. The bathtub valve was broken so the hot water ran out quickly, the food took a long time to arrive, and there was not much variety in breakfast, but they prepared lunch boxes for us early in the morning when we asked, which was very helpful, and the staff at the front desk and in the restaurant were very kind. There was also a group of Japanese guests there."

"This hotel was terrible. The rooms were damp and a bit old. Not only that, but every night the shower water would turn cold halfway through. I contacted the hotel twice to have it fixed, and they said it was fixed, but the problem persisted. I strongly advise against staying there. It was awful."

Sigiriya Kingdom Resort ★★★★
"I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Sigiriya Kingdom Resort. I made a confirmed booking at an agreed rate, but later—especially in the middle of the night—the hotel attempted to change the price. This is unacceptable and feels highly unprofessional. A confirmed booking should be honored, not altered under pressure. What made the situation worse was the lack of proper customer support. When I raised the issue, no clear explanation or reasonable solution was provided. Instead, my time was wasted with poor communication and no accountability from the staff. This kind of behavior damages trust and creates a very negative experience for guests. Transparency and honesty are basic expectations in hospitality, and unfortunately, this hotel failed in both. I strongly urge future guests to double-check all booking details and be cautious. I also hope the management takes this seriously and improves their customer service and ethical standards. And I'm traveling from almost 400 km away from their destination. Thats how they treated me. Disappointed and unacceptable"
