We had an amazing stay at Dambulla Kings Inn. The hosts were so friendly and helped us with everything from recommendations to scooter rental. They also drove us to the bus stop.

I had a wonderful stay at this B&B! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful from the very beginning, making me feel right at home. The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. Plus, the location couldn’t be better – just a short walk from the city center, perfect for exploring everything without needing transportation. Highly recommended!

The room was large, clean, and comfortable. It had strong water pressure with hot water, and great air-con. It says ‘Eric~South Korea’ I guess because I’m here now. I’m from California and I’ve traveled 126 countries. I was very sick when I arrived at the hotel. I slept long time. When I woke up, I came out and the first thing they did was offer to bring breakfast at 11:30am on several plates. That never happened to me in Cal., any other state in my country, and no other time in these other countries, except this place. When was the last time you were offered the complimentary breakfast at 11:30am?!

I've been traveling across the world for nearly 10 years, and as a hotelier by profession, I've stayed in countless places. But in all my journeys, I have never experienced a hostel like this—one that truly cared for me like family. The owner and his wife were incredibly kind and supportive, and the lovely staffs welcomed me warmly and provided all the facilities I needed. Though I stayed for just two days, it was a moment that left a lasting mark on my heart.The room, bed, washroom, and every other facility were exceptional. Dear fellow travelers, if you're planning a trip to Dambulla(Sigiriya & Cave temple), trust me—this is the best place to stay. Now, I feel like I have a family in Sri Lanka💙 Sir, see you soon. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart🙏

This Hotel started two month ago, so everything was very new and very clean. I think it was the most clean hotel I had before in Sri Lanka. The family is so lovely. They are very friendly and help you with everything you need. I felt so comfortable and welcomed :). Also they made me the best breakfast and dinner. On my last day they did a small cooking class for me because I was so interested in making Curry. That was great and I felt so grateful. They also have a tuk tuk and bring you to every place you wanna go. I’m so glad that I found this Hotel and & would definitely recommend it!

5/5 Stars - Exceptional Hospitality at Golden Star Hotel Dambulla!* I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Golden Star Hotel in Dambulla, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! The hotel's staff, particularly Thakshila, were the epitome of hospitality. Her warm smile and professionalism were truly unbelievable. As a relatively new property, the hotel looks exactly like the photos - modern, clean, and well-maintained. Its convenient location provides easy access to the road and nearby attractions. What impressed me most, however, was the exceptional care shown to guests. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort, even taking the initiative to clean my bike before I departed! If you're looking for a genuine Sri Lankan hospitality experience in Dambulla, look no further than the Golden Star Hotel. Be sure to meet Thakshila, the backbone of the property, and experience her remarkable hospitality for yourself! *Highly Recommended!*

    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.

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.

    Everything was really good! The pool bar was relaxing, beds were comfortable, food was tasty and bedrooms were clean. I told them that it was my bf brithday and they made a pretty decoration with flowers and leaves in the bed. Our 2 nights in the hotel were great, but the main highlight was the staff. All of them were friendly and helpful everytime, specially Siduu and Tito, who shared more time with us. Thank you for a great time! If I go back to Dambulla, I would definitely stay again!

    We were in this property for one night. The architecture of the rooms were so spacious, cute and relaxing. The entire property looks fresh since they have built the hotel recently. The Hotel staff was friendly and supportive. MOI is located very close to Dambulla town and the cave temple. We really enjoyed our brief stay there.
