A great stay at Villa one66. The room & bathroom were perfectly clean. The property is located very near the Golden Temple and Dambulla Cave Temple, definitely walking distance. The owner of the property is very kind & helpful. The service was excellent throughout our stay. Breakfast was traditional Sri Lankan and it was delicious. They have owned tuk tuk service (golden tuk tuk) with a well-known guide. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

I really liked the staff, they were very friendly and welcoming. The place was pleasant, the rooms were clean, and overall it was very good value for money. I especially appreciated the welcome drink and breakfast included at such a reasonable price. During my trip to Sri Lanka, I stayed at five hotels, but this was the only one that offered both breakfast and a welcome drink. I stayed here with two friends, and we had a very good experience. I would strongly recommend this hotel for both family and friends..

The bed and pillows were super comfortable, ensuring a restful sleep every night. The hospitality was incredibly kind, and I was especially impressed by the fact that this is a small, family-run establishment. There’s a special warmth and charm in the way they manage everything—it feels like staying with family. The room was immaculately clean and very comfortable, and the accommodation was reasonably priced, offering great value for money. The food was both tasty and affordable, which added to the overall experience. If I could suggest one thing, it would be to add a small TV in the rooms, which might enhance the comfort for some guests. Overall, it was a delightful stay, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, family-oriented, and budget-friendly place to stay. Thank you for the amazing hospitality!

The hotel has only been operated for a couple months but it's well-equipped & had almost everything I needed. Bandara is a great host. He always tried to satisfy the guest's needs, as I asked him to help open the gate at 4am to go out for a morning hiking or when I borrowed some utensils in the late night. He arranged tuktuk for us sometimes with the better prices that we found on Pickme. Not to mention the ladies, they were so kind & caring, with captivating smiles. They made me feel so welcomed. I had the best breakfast here.

We chose not to climb Sigiriya (having just recovered from Adam's Peak!) but instead chose the much shorter Pidurangala which afforded a fabulous view of Sigiriya. Highly recommended. A visit to the Bawa hotel, Heritance Kandalama, is well worth it as an insight into the brilliant architectural mind of Geoffrey Bawa.

Dambulla is an excellent base for exploring Kandy, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya. We stayed there for 4 Nights and could cover the heritage sites easily. Dambulla Caves are a must-see and so is Sigiriya (just 16 Kms. away). Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa are around an hours drive but Dambulla is much well-connected and less touristy.

With its central location, Dambulla is the ideal base for exploring these cultural wonders, while also providing a peaceful escape surrounded by nature. Whether you're into history, culture, or simply breathtaking landscapes, Dambulla is the best place to start your journey through Sri Lanka’s rich heritage.

I loved everything they have amazing vibe, nothing was to much trouble . All staff kind and helpful. Dambulla is quiet but has local shops, cafes Pizza Hut, great small restaurant a few miles from Evergreen serving very good food. It's run by the people who run Evergreen. So recommended by me.. Anything you want to do or go and see will be arranged for you Tuk Tuk guy is a staff member . If you need car/driver it will be arranged.

We LOVED every second at Kandalama Lodge!! The hotel is absolutely stunning with a great pool for swimming. The rooms are clean and the outdoor bathroom was one of our highlights. It is one of the best places we ever stayed in with the friendliest staff on earth. Everyone was so kind, explaining a lot of interesting things about Sri Lanka, the food etc! The manager of the hotel is such a friendly guy, we felt at home immediately! An absolute must go if you would like to discover the area around Dambulla!

Our stay at the Hotel Awaken was fantastic. We got some welcome drinks on our arrival and had a nice homemade curry for dinner in the evening. Asanka and his family have been really welcoming and helpful in every regard. We even got a free Tuktuk ride to the cave temple in Dambulla and Asanka drove us to the bus station the next morning and helped us hopping on the AC bus to Kandy. The room is very modern, sparkling clean and comfy. We would definitely recommend this place. Thank you Asanka!

Fantastic value for money budget hotel in centre of Dambulla, but down a quiet road. The deluxe room was very spacious with a comfortable bed and hot pump shower (quite rare in Sri Lanka!) Breakfast was incredibly generous - lots of fruit and baked goods. The manager is so helpful. He’ll sort you out with wherever you want to go or whatever you need. Rooms are basic but have everything you need.
