Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SpainThe location was great, also the garden was very beautiful. Nimal was extremely helpful and kind, and treated us like family. We arrived extra early and he opened the door for us. We are very thankful for that. The breakfast was incredibly tasty and we ordered dinner one night and really liked it. Nimal also arranged the tuktuk for us for a whole day. Would recommend this place to anyone staying in Dambulla.

AustraliaLovely big rooms with hot aircon and hot water. Very comfy beds. Outdoor area for breakfast was ideal. Breakfast was huge and delicious Location is close to main town centre and bus station. Easy walk to Cave Temples. Host was friendly and helpful. Even made space to park our tuk tuk. Highly recommend booking early as there are only a few rooms. Would definitely stay again

Triangle Home Stay is a very cosy guesthouse in Dambulla, close to the main road, shops and bus stops, however it's very quiet. The host is amazingly helpful (he offered to drive us around the neighborhood with his tuk-tuk). The rooms are basic, but comfortable. Bathroom amenities need some little maintenance 😉, but it wasn't a problem for us. Breakfast was very tasty and fresh.

AustraliaThere was nothing I didn’t like.
Every day was a perfect day with Nimal and Achala running this home stay. It all began with a hearty breakfast each day - more than I could eat. Nimal would help me with outings to the surrounding scenic sites providing transport at a very reasonable rate. Nimal took me to places for dinner and to the bus for free.

Czech RepublicWe stayed in the wooden cabin and it was amazing. It was clean and comfortable, with a small terrace to relax. The host was very hospitable and the breakfast was nice. The location was very convenient, with the cave temple within walking distance, and it was also a convenient location to get to Sigiriya (we went by tuk-tuk) or Polonnaruwa ancient city (manageable by bus).

GermanyI had a great time here. Mr. Nimal is an exceptional host, he helped me with many things like scooter renting, tips, free rides and a good company. The room I had was new, comfortable, clean, I had a balcony with a nice view, the neighborhood was calm and safe and I could also work during my stay. Breakfast was delicious and all in all it was an exceptional stay in an exceptional family. Very high value for the money paid, very recommended.

Czech RepublicJust the mosquitoes, but these are everywhere.
The best thing on this accommodation are definitely the owners. So kind, so modest, happy and helpful people one would not believe. We stayed there just for one night and then we had to move to another city but the stay was nice, calm, clean and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We could arrive after midnight and the owner welcomed us with open hands and also helped us to schedule a trip to safari, ordered a driver and that everything in couple of minutes. The next day we could leave a luggages there and come back next evening. 10/10. The owner also helped with the luggages on our way to the next bus and stayed with us till the bus arrived. Would recommend to everyone!

FranceWonderful experience at this very cozy and family-oriented guest house. The brand-new wooden room is incredibly comfortable. You quickly feel at ease in the environment, and the owners are truly delightful. I used their service to get to Sigiriya and explore the temple and main attractions. The dinner, which needs to be requested in advance, was excellent, and the breakfast was generous. It's also possible to arrange a tuk-tuk pick-up from the bus station. One of the best guest houses, even with the tropical rain. It felt like home.

It is not easy to find the right words to describe how I felt here. Nimal and his family made me feel home since the first moment, ready to help me or give me any advise I needed any moment. Enjoying the courtyard sharing some memory/experience with Nimal and his niece has been really special. Miss this place and you will miss the authentic Sinhalese hospitality :) Thank you, the Italian guy ❤️
