The Paradise Dambulla ★★★★★

📍 Kubukkadanwala, Dambulla

"This hotel is just beautiful. Paradise in the trees. A great clean pool. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help. Food changed daily and plenty to pick from. Rooms clean, comfy and air conditioning brilliant. Will miss it. Absolutely would love to return and recommend 100%."

Kassapa Lion's Rock
9.3 (51 reviews)

Kassapa Lion's Rock ★★★★

📍 Digampathana, Kimbissa, Matale

"Very beautiful and welcoming resort. We had a really nice stay and truly enjoyed our time here. The service was excellent from start, and everyone was very welcoming and attentive. A special thank to Saji, who provided great service throughout our visit."

Hotel Sigiriyaaya - Jetwing Select
9.0 (13 reviews)

Hotel Sigiriyaaya - Jetwing Select ★★★

📍 70 Rangirigama Rd, Sigiriya, Dambulla

"A wonderful hotel in a quiet location among rice fields. Peacocks and the sounds of the jungle. If you love nature and solitude, this is perfect! Just remember that there's no "civilization" right next door. The rooms are nice, clean, and comfortable. The reception is very warm. The breakfast and dinner were delicious! Thanks to all the hotel staff. Most importantly for those traveling by car, the road Google defaults to on the lake side is bad, full of potholes; we barely made it. The road on the other side, while rough, is much better. I've attached a map in the photo."

EKHO Sigiriya - 700 meters to Sigiriya Rock
8.5 (51 reviews)

EKHO Sigiriya - 700 meters to Sigiriya Rock ★★★★

📍 EKHO Sigiriya Hotel, Sigiriya Rd, Sigiriya

"Facilities: The facilities are a bit old, and the room was a little damp, but overall it was okay. Cleanliness: The room was fairly clean, but the floor drain had a slight odor. Environment: Located at the foot of Lion Rock, the location is excellent, with several good restaurants nearby, but it's a bit noisy along the street. Other: Dinner was at the restaurant next door. The hotel breakfast was average, with limited choices."

Aliya Resort and Spa - Thema Collection
9.2 (47 reviews)

Aliya Resort and Spa - Thema Collection ★★★★★

📍 Audangawa, Sigiriya, Matale

"Beautiful hotel in Sigiriya, view over the Lion Rock from the pool which is gorgeous as well, hotel is well located close to Dambulla temple, Minneriya Park for elephant watching,… Good experiences at the restaurant with the buffet at night, lunch and cocktails were fine too. Hotel staff is kind and helpful. Room (two floors) was comfortable and clean, a bathtub and shower room were both available. Not a big deal but the kid’s club needs a serious cleaning and upgrade (does not match the hotel standing at all). Positive note not well enough advertized: the free pottery experience for kids at the next-door hotel (walking distance)"

Eden Grand
9.6 (54 reviews)

Eden Grand ★★★

📍 272, 6 Kurunegala Rd, Dambulla

"It's a little far from the city center, about 100 meters from the main road. I was using Google Maps to get there, but I took a wrong turn and had to ask a local for directions. Looking again, there's a hotel sign on a utility pole at the corner, so please refer to that. In terms of facilities, it's equipped with a kettle, refrigerator, hairdryer, and air conditioner, and the TV has good picture quality. Coffee, tea, and two bottles of water are also provided, making it well worth the price. (It's probably a new building, so there are few gaps, and hardly any flies or ants got in.) As for the food, breakfast is a mix of Sri Lankan and English style, with good taste and quantity. Combined with the facilities, it offers better value than other hotels in the same price range, so I recommend it. The owner's family was also very kind. ka"
