A bit of misunderstanding at arrival. We had to way longer than it was told and communication was not clear. Overall amazing experience. Place and pool are amazing. Restaurant stuff very nice. Food is too spicy. Little options for international people. Many options for Indian-type of food. Very good value for money.

A very quiet place and a wonderful and lovely family! They helped me with everything I needed, they even bought fish for dinner just because I asked for it, even though it wasn’t on the menu😊They also gave me a ride to Sigiriya. They’re very thoughtful and make you feel like one of them :)

    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.

    Dambulla is truly the perfect gateway to explore Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle! Located at the heart of this historic region, it offers unbeatable access to some of the country’s most iconic sites. From Dambulla, you’re just a short drive from the majestic Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the ancient city of Polonnaruwa, and the sacred ruins of Anuradhapura. The Dambulla Cave Temple itself is a stunning treasure, filled with ancient statues and beautiful murals. 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.

    The guesthouse is very close to Dambulla Cave Temples which was the reason I chose it. It has decent rooms and very friendly hosts. Run by a sweet family who are always willing to help out. I always got response within a min if I needed anything. I found their rates for tuk tuk to Polannaruwah and Sigiriya so I opted for a private one and they didn't mind. Had breakfast one day and it was a big spread and pretty good. The room is very clean and the bathroom too.

    Evergreen was one of my favourite places to stay in Sri Lanka. The location is peaceful and surrounded by open countryside but also very near the town for transport and restaurants. The hotel has a nice family feel and Api was very helpful giving advice and organising trips. Isuru was an excellent driver who took me to Sigiriya and showed me some places on the way back to make the most of the day. Highly recommended.

    We had a great time in dambulla. The host drove us to the sights in a tuktuk for a voluntary tip and the sisters cooked for us. In the evening they also served up a good meal and it was one of the best dinners we had in Sri Lanka. The room is nice, there are two fans and they always put mosquito incense spirals under the table.

    Reserved the hotel just as a stopover (location just by bus station) but I wish I could stay longer. Nice hotel with restaurant and bar, place to chill, quiet in the night. Very helpful manager. Nice pressure in (hot!) shower. Nice breakfast. Good potential for a base to visit places around Dambulla.
