"Lovely boutique hotel around 15 minutes drive from Hiriketiya. Staff were really friendly, the room was clean and practical (although we would appreciate more storage space). Very quiet away from the main road so you won’t hear cars beeping"

"Lovely quiet place with wonderful gardens and pool. Clean and large rooms, great staff, generous breakfast. Next to 3 in one spa for fabulous massage and a good coffee shop right next door. Great location. I cannot stress how lovely and accommodating staff is. "

"Wir haben zwei Nächte im Royal Palace verbracht. Der Besitzer war sehr nett und freundlich und hatte immer ein Lächeln auf den Lippen. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das köstliche, abwechslungsreiche und reichhaltige Frühstück – das beste, das wir während unseres zweiwöchigen Aufenthalts in Sri Lanka hatten. Die Lage ist strandnah und in der Nähe der Hauptstraße. Vom Balkon aus hat man Blick auf eine kleine Straße, die tagsüber recht belebt ist (vor allem durch die vielen Tuk-Tuks). Das Zimmer war...

"Having heard about The Last House and one of Bawa's last properties, was keen to experience for myself. I love the property! It's a perfect place to 'flop & drop': positioned on a beautiful clean beach, a stunning pool, great Sri Lankan food and authentic Ayurvedic massage available - a new favourite. Ideal for a special occasion to block out for a small group of family & friends..."

"Nice and comfy room. Beautiful garden with many beautiful birds and other wildlife.
Close to the beach. Plus is for the distance to Galle Road (which is very noisy).
The dinner was good, but far from great. The curry’s are way to salty. Same as for the breakfast (don’t try the chocolate pancakes).
Beautiful place and very friendly staff.
- Big minus for the hotels own landfill that you see if you take a walk outside the fences. They should really clean that up. Not ok!

"Overall, this hotel is very average. There were a few positive and negatives. I’ll start with the positives. After asking for water and toiletries, they were eventually provided. They let me shower after checkout and stored my bag, which was nice!
The room is very average, but there was a gap above the door that didn’t shut all the way which let bugs in at night. There was loud music late into the early morning hours from neighboring hotels. And, perhaps the most offsetting aspect for me was...

Top Matara Hotel Reviews

Jungle Village By Thawthisa
10/10 Excellent
"Everything was great! The only thing I didn't love was the internet connection. It looks like they use 4G cellular modems with data limits instead of a cable or fiber network. I occasionally had to hold Teams meetings for work, and the connection would drop and never get back. However, this seems to be a common issue across Sri Lanka, not just at this hotel. Aside from that, everything else was absolutely perfect, especially the staff and the location!"

Stay Ceylon - Weligama
10/10 Excellent
"This is a superb hotel. The staff are friendly, the hotel is clean, the rooms are beautifully designed with a great view out over the bay."

Handagedara Resort
6/10 Okay
"The staff and location were great, but my room had an ant problem in the bathroom and the sheets felt clean but were stained. They gave me a late check out and held my bags for an hour, so that was nice, but unfortunately room 204 did not feel worth the price. The groubds are nice though"

Sea World Boutique Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Rooms were clean with an amazing view! Small hotel, in a good location with friendly and helpful staff! Breakfasts were fantastic. "

Cape Weligama - Relais and Chateaux
10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay at Cape Weligama Hotel. We received a warm welcome on arrival and were taken by buggy to our amazing room overlooking the garden. It was spacious and so was the bathroom.
A short walk to the dining room for dinner and breakfast and we enjoyed being able to sit outside on the terrace for both.
My husband went on a nature walk with a ranger around the property and was shown different plants and birds which he really enjoyed.
In summary, we really enjoyed our stay here and can really recommend it."

Ocean Bliss by Sugar Coliving
2/10 Terrible
"This was a disappointing stay. When it rained water pools in under the balcony door and several drips appeared in the ceiling. The resulting drips caused damage to some of my belongings, you just wouldn’t expect damage like that when paying so much for a room.
I booked the stay as a treat but feel that the room wasn't worth anything like the price. I do feel quite cheated. I’m sure it’s great when it’s dry here but I spent my stay with towels soaking up the flooding around the edges of the room. It somewhat destroyed the zen I was seeking.
I wrote to management as the staff on site didn’t seem to care much. But no reply, apology or concession. A real shame."

Radisson Collection Resort, Galle
8/10 Good
"Staff at the hotel were really good. "

Levels Unawatuna
4/10 Poor
"Service was great across the board; however, the hotel itself felt extremely neglected and for the price was quite disappointing. Makeover needed."

Tabula Rasa Resort & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, lovely rooms, excellent restaurant and cocktail bar."
