I did not check prices around but in my opinion, the Tuktuk to the tower was kind of pricie. They charge 2500rp with is around 8,5$.

It is the room of a family ‘s home. They are attentive and nice. The WIFI works PERFECT! The shower has hot water. It is really clean room. The food was really yummy. We got chicken pasta and it was amazing.

Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners are a sweet couple who take pride in providing the extra comforts of home. The tuktuk service they provide is convenient. Highly recommend using for the trip to Ambuluwawa Tower!!! The location is away from the busy streets so it was quiet at night.

It was a bit difficult for us to find but we were there quite late and google map doesn’t work very well in Sri Lanka it doesn’t distinguish between a broad road and bigger road. Unfortunately we had a massive van and that added to the problem in many places!

It was like staying at your relative’s house. Felt like home. The hosts were very helpful nice people. Room was large and clean. Price was decent and they provide Tuktuk service and scooter for rent. Overall was fantastic. Also got help for ordering food as it was late and exchange of currency.

This is honestly the best place to stay in the Gampola region. Clean, cozy rooms just next to the beautiful forest and wondefull hosts that make you feel like you're the part of their family and offer home cooked local dishes for dinner and breakfast. Host also offers tuk tuk to the Ambuluwawa Tower. Absolutely loved the hospitality, couldn't recommend more, just book it and enjoy!

Excellent accommodation hosted by a lovely Husband & Wife. We found this to be the perfect place to stay for a visit to Ambuluwawa Tower. Clean & comfortable room, with good home cooked food available onsite. The hosts also assisted in arranging a transfer from Sigiriya to the accommodation, a tuk tuk to the tower, and a departing transfer to Nanu Oya Station. Very comfortable & convenient!

100% recommend staying at this guest house. Super clean and comfortable, there are 3 rooms, each with private bathrooms. Everything is newly renovated and comfortable. The rooms are on the 1st floor, where there is a private lounge just for the guest, though we were made to feel welcome everywhere. On the roof there is a terrace where we did sunrise yoga and meditation, surrounded by lush greenery. You can see the tower from the roof. The owners are really nice and are able to provide Pick ups and drop off. We were taken to our next stop (Sigiriya) by their vehicle. They also have a Tuk Tuk and can take you to the tower, wait (no rush) and return. Food was really good and we had tasty vegetarian and vegan food. They can provide breakfast, lunch and evening meals, They have had visitors from 49 countries around the world and we have no hesitation recommending this accommodation in Gampola.

No AC, but had a powerful fan. Maybe at this price, I shouldn't expect AC? It cooled down at night, so not a problem.

Wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcome. Room clean and spacious. Bed comfortable. Shower good and warm. Clean room in good condition. Breakfast great. Owner took us to the tower at a reasonable price. He made the visit easy and showed us a few spots. The cooking class is a must. The owner, his wife and sister inlaw cooked with us and made it fun and tasty. Helped with putting oil in our tuk tuk.

Amazing hosts. Perfect localization, delicious breakfast. It is possible to order dinner. The host offers a tuk-tuk service and takes you to the tower. We were the first and climbed to the top alone.

Yashodya and Shashika really made us feel at home when we arrived at their lovely little homestay. Great communication leading up to our arrival so they knew when to expect us and they welcomed us with tea which was wonderful after a long day of tuk tuk driving followed by offering us dinner for that night which was perfect (and delicious) as we were tired and didn't feel like going out anywhere. The bedroom is simple but comfortable, very clean, and had everything you needed. Bathroom was spacious, again very clean which choice of hot or cold shower. Breakfast was simple but delicious. Situated in a quiet location which is great. We felt very welcomed and looked after as if part of the family and they provided great recommendations for things to see and do for the next part of our journey.

This place is hosted by a husband and wife. The wife will make delicious breakfast for you in the morning and the husband can take you in his tuktuk anywhere you want (also to Kandy) for a fair price. Nice rooms and even a rooftop terrace to look at the tower.

Nothing really. We were pretty happy with the stay.

Hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They were in contact with us early to ensure we were familiar with the location and picked us up from the nearby train station.

We were welcomed by the lovely couple with juice and new years treats. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and hot shower in the bathroom. We did a cooking course there and it was very interesting and resulted in the best meal so far in 10 days Sri Lanka. Safe choice in Gampola!
