Hotels near Dambulla Cave Temple

"I made a reservation for March 5, 2025, and arrived at the hotel around 5:30 PM after a long and exhausting journey with my family from Colombo. The road conditions were extremely poor, and the location is very remote, making the trip even more difficult. Upon arrival, there was no welcome or assistance. When I informed the staff that I had a reservation, I was told there was no booking under my name. I showed my reservation number to the property manager, yet they still insisted that no reservation existed. By this time, it was already dark, and we were unfamiliar with the area. We were left without a place to stay, with no support or solution offered by the hotel staff. We had to carry our luggage back to the car and leave, completely exhausted and distressed. No apology or assistance was provided. This was one of the worst and most upsetting experiences I have ever faced."

"The room was outdated. The bathroom door was broken and did not close properly. "

"The room was spacious and clean and it was good to have a balcony with chairs. The open plan, open air design of the hotel is very nice."

"Lovely people, great view over the lake and countryside beyond, wonderful room. Breakfast was outstanding. Really enjoyed our stay at Jetwing lake - which we used as a base for visiting the incredible sights in the area (Dambulla, Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa)"

"Lovely calm resort. Felt like a retreat. Loved the location. Set in the jungle. Dinner was lovely. "

"Everything went wrong from that very start. I had no reservation booked in my name. I was offered a room, i was the only one there and felt uncomfortable. I went to check in the next day, but was told they were booked out. Then I was told that another booking was made at another hotel. And when I arrived the new hotel was not aware. Hotels.com was not very helpful. Still awaiting payment to be made I wa"

"We stayed Moi Dambulla for 3 days. It was such a beautiful and peaceful stay. Its also really close to the Golden temple and can get to Sigirya easily. The staff members were excellent and went above and beyond. The place is very clean, I wasn’t keeping well on the day of checkout and the staff very kindly let us checkout late because of me. They also cooked us meals. Erande, the manager I believe and the staff were really great, we definitely recommend the stay. "
