Hotels near Ibbankatuwa Megalithic Tombs, Dambulla

The hotel is right next to the cave temple and you can walk past it, which is very convenient. The hotel can report to Lion Rock for a group tour, or charter a car to Lion Rock, and then go to the ancient city. The price is billed in US dollars.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the outstanding hospitality during my recent stay on 8th December at Sigiriya Kingdom Resort - Dambulla .

Thank you once again for making my stay so enjoyable and comforatable with my three kids.The restaurant staff was totally tendered a child friendly service.I will certainly recommend your hotel to others and look forward to returning in the future.

Since I had entered the hotel, the staff had been very helpful and friendly. Everytime I ask them for something, they would respond fast and help with whatever the task is. Then how they talk is also very friendly and respectful. Their service had been way greater than that of what you would expect. Furthermore, talking about one of the most important facts, the food. Well, the food had been very clean, well served and had been healthy as well; it had been always fresh. Then the buffet has a good variety of food ranging from Sri Lankan to foreign food. Then the rooms had been very clean and well maintained, it had been very comfortable, not the most luxurious but it is way worth the money. The atmosphere was great, it was surrounded by the nature from all sides, it had a great swimming pool good for all heights as the deepest side is 2m and the shortest 2ft. The water is very clean. Thus, this would be one of the few hotels that I would personally recommend to someone. This hotel helped create life long memories that's unforgettable with my family. Thank you Palwehera Village Resort for making this possible.

This is the best and best hotel to stay in during your stay in Lanka! The entire hotel is in a mango garden, the environment is very beautiful! The hotel is also very clean and the service is in place. The breakfast was very good and the place to eat was great! Overlooking the pool and a large green area, it is simply a beautiful experience. The environment is fragrant, and there are nights at night. The security is also very good. Especially on the second day because of the urgency, my lover put some valuables in the room, our bags are already on the way to Nuvo, and it has been open for 20 minutes. After suddenly thinking about the amount, the DILI driver was very enthusiastic to help the hotel call, the other party sent someone to say that they were still in the room, and then rushed back to the hotel to take it, which was a sigh of relief. Thank you for the hotel! In addition, this hotel room is to be locked with a key, not directly locked to the door, this should be noted. After we checked in, I went to Lion Rock after cleaning up. When my lover locked the door, I brought it directly to the door. When I came back, I opened the door with a single push. Fortunately, nothing was lost. This shows that this hotel is really ok. Of course, if you have to live in this hotel, you still have to keep your belongings safe. There is a safe in the room.

This is not our first stay at the hotel. This was our 3rd or 4th visit and it is the last for sure due to their poor customer handling and management. I must say that our previous stays were fabulous and i have made positive reviews in TripAdvisor for those. However, this time most of the staff are new to us and not so friendly and caring as the ones who were there earlier starting from the front office. They just don't care, I don't know if its because we are local travellers. On the other hand, the ”amberella” welcome drink is awesome as always. We stayed in a Duplex as there were 4 adults and my 9 month old baby. The rooms were clean and spacious. The living area was giving a calming vibe and had the same look as their other villas we have stayes before. Our baby, husband and I were in the upstair room and when we entered the room is was heated up and the air conditioner was not working properly. It was so uncomfortable so we called the front office and they sent a team to repair. It was taking alot of time so we requested for another room as our baby was feeling tired and needed a nap. Plus, they had adequate rooms vacant and even had Duplex category rooms available too. Still, they refused to shift us to another room so we kept the baby in the ground floor room. The repair took around 2 hours! And then we went to the room and the air conditioner was working. Yet, we were not able to have a nap and relax as we had to go out to Anuradhapura which is the main reason for our visit. So we came back at around 9.30pm and the air conditioner was not working again. Again the same drill, a team came, inspected and told us they need to repair again and it was 11.45pm when they said this. We refused because we were already exhausted as needed to sleep. Also, now, at 11.45 at night they are asking us if we can move to another room (Duplex category). They had vacant Duplex category rooms all this time and in the moddle of the night they are asking us to shift. In my head I was bursting but we were all too tired to keep arguing or leaving the useless place so we stayed in the same Duplex room just till morning. Early morning we left the hotel without breakfast eventhough we had paid for full board. They charged us the whole amount and invoiced for the additional food as well as mini bar (just mentioned this if not someone could think that they must've given a discount or wave-off). So we paid almost 500USD just for one night for this drama. We will never go back to this hotel and not at all recommend. I guess the main issue was poor management of the situation and it shows how poor the hotel management is. We were in Duplex 3 (Kohomba). This hotel staff or management will never care about the customer if something goes wrong and lacks hospitality. Afterall, while we were having our breakfast we got a call from the general manager of the hotel and he apologized but I think it is too late as we have already left their property. On the plus side, t

Dear Readers, 1. I and my wife stayed in this resort for one night (Check In 10 Dec 2024 & Check Out 11 Dec 2024). 2. I had booked this hotel through Ms CEYLO TRAVELS,COLOMBO as one destination out of our 14 nights itinerary to Sri Lanka. 3. It was quite a disappointing experience since this hotel was offered to us a 4-Star hotel by Ms CEYLO TRAVELS. 4. It is very highly overrated as is seen from the previous reviews in contrast to the standard of ambience ,hospitality, amenities and choice/quality of meals. 5. Good Points, a. The hotel is situated in a jungle like serene environment. The sounds of birds can be heard in the morning/evening. b. The hotel has a nice swimming pool which is located next to the restaurant. 6. Bad Points. a. The rooms have a dampness in the air and are not aired regularly and properly. b. The standard of toiletaries in the washroom was very substandard. c. The room and the washroom does not adequate lighting arrangement. d. The hotel does not have laundry services which is a normal amenity expected in a 4 Star hotel/resort. e. The hotel provides only two 500 ml mineral water bottles for one night stay. The extra water bottles asked for by us were levied at DOUBLE the MRP listed on the water bottle which is violative of legal provisions. 7. Standard of Food. a. The standard of food in terms of quality and choice was extremely limited and very minimalistic for vegetarians like us. b. We had to be contended with items like Dal,Curd and plain rice. c. The standard of bakery items was highly substandard. d. The standard of service was also not upto the mark. e. The variety/quality has NO comparison with the one we came across at Hotels like Trinco Blu beach resort at Tricomalee merely one day ago on 09 Dec 2024 and at Mandara Resort, Mirissa later on 15 Dec 2024. 8. Summary. A. This jungle resort is a 3-star standard and is highly overrated in the reviews. I assume the visitors don't have patience and inclination to write a thorough, comprehensive and realistic review. B. I would also admit that I had made a huge mistake by booking my 14 nights tour to Sri Lanka through Ms CEYLO TRAVELS,COLOMBO. This company is into excessive profiteering and is making a fool of the Foreigner Customers like us after taking 10% advance before reaching Sri Lanka and collecting balance 90% in CASH (USD or INR) immediately on arrival at Colombo. C. I would therefore suggest that the Foreigners especially Indians MUST not use the services of this company which is looting its customers in a systematic and organised manner, knowing fully well that it will be very difficult and highly un- economical for a foreigner to sue them on the Sri Lankan soil.
