Hotels near Hurulu Eco Safari in Polonnaruwa

After visiting the ancient city, I checked in to the hotel. It is very close to the scenic area, and it is only a 10-minute walk. 570 / night, outdated facilities, rooms are relatively tide, the price difference between the previous night and the Candara Heritage Hotel is only one hundred, but it can not be compared, the cost performance is extremely low, it is not recommended to stay at all. The hotel is built next to a lake. This lake is said to be the largest lake in Sri Lanka. Before booking, I saw some wild elephants drinking water in the morning near the hotel lake, so I booked it without hesitation. I had imagined sitting on the balcony overlooking the lake and eating the noodles of the motherland, but I opened the balcony door and found that I could not see the lake at all, and was covered by the canopy. I ran to the lake in the evening to wait for the elephant to drink water. , The elephant did not come.

The property is located in front of the lake. Immersed in nature it is very suggestive. We arrived around 6pm and unfortunately the pool closed at 6.30pm so we didn't have time to test it. They offer free spa service but massages are subject to charges. The restaurant is well stocked with alcohol, you can eat discreetly buffet-style cuisine, both typical Asian and international, for around €15 per person. Breakfast is also a buffet; you can find sweet/savory products and freshly cooked eggs. Our room (deluxe double) was very nice, on two levels: in the lower part the bathroom has a particular concept. A sliding door takes you directly into the room with a half roof covered only by a net. All very beautiful but impractical and above all there is the risk of finding many insects, as in our case. In the upper part there is the bedroom, very comfortable. The upholstery is not entirely clean and this contrasts with the entire structure.

This is not our first stay at the hotel. This was our 3rd or 4th visit and it is the last for sure due to their poor customer handling and management. I must say that our previous stays were fabulous and i have made positive reviews in TripAdvisor for those. However, this time most of the staff are new to us and not so friendly and caring as the ones who were there earlier starting from the front office. They just don't care, I don't know if its because we are local travellers. On the other hand, the ”amberella” welcome drink is awesome as always. We stayed in a Duplex as there were 4 adults and my 9 month old baby. The rooms were clean and spacious. The living area was giving a calming vibe and had the same look as their other villas we have stayes before. Our baby, husband and I were in the upstair room and when we entered the room is was heated up and the air conditioner was not working properly. It was so uncomfortable so we called the front office and they sent a team to repair. It was taking alot of time so we requested for another room as our baby was feeling tired and needed a nap. Plus, they had adequate rooms vacant and even had Duplex category rooms available too. Still, they refused to shift us to another room so we kept the baby in the ground floor room. The repair took around 2 hours! And then we went to the room and the air conditioner was working. Yet, we were not able to have a nap and relax as we had to go out to Anuradhapura which is the main reason for our visit. So we came back at around 9.30pm and the air conditioner was not working again. Again the same drill, a team came, inspected and told us they need to repair again and it was 11.45pm when they said this. We refused because we were already exhausted as needed to sleep. Also, now, at 11.45 at night they are asking us if we can move to another room (Duplex category). They had vacant Duplex category rooms all this time and in the moddle of the night they are asking us to shift. In my head I was bursting but we were all too tired to keep arguing or leaving the useless place so we stayed in the same Duplex room just till morning. Early morning we left the hotel without breakfast eventhough we had paid for full board. They charged us the whole amount and invoiced for the additional food as well as mini bar (just mentioned this if not someone could think that they must've given a discount or wave-off). So we paid almost 500USD just for one night for this drama. We will never go back to this hotel and not at all recommend. I guess the main issue was poor management of the situation and it shows how poor the hotel management is. We were in Duplex 3 (Kohomba). This hotel staff or management will never care about the customer if something goes wrong and lacks hospitality. Afterall, while we were having our breakfast we got a call from the general manager of the hotel and he apologized but I think it is too late as we have already left their property. On the plus side, t

There are two types of English breakfast and Sri Lankan breakfast, which are quite rich, but less than buffet style. The room is very British. The backyard is a meadow, the trees are monkeys, and the environment is very good.

Palmyra truly is a very special place nestled in amongst the jungle. Boutique style little lodges but with the feeling of a family stay. What a wonderful family they are, too. Nothing is too much trouble and they can organise any activities you desire. In addition, they will drop you in town and pick you up whenever you like. The lodges are very pretty and spotlessly clean whilst almost invisible amongst the palms and exotic plants that surround them. Don't be alarmed by the monkeys that frequent the hotel area, and you will almost definitely see a wild Elephant on your way into town. Dilantha, Dilshan, Dilan, and Chamoo have all been fantastic in taking us on tours, airport pickups, tuk tuk drop-offs, and generally, anything we needed. If you're looking for a small but perfectly formed place to stay amongst nature with hosts that will absolutely look after you, you will not be disappointed. Thank you for the perfect stay.

What could be better for the welcome, the location, the comfort, the cleanliness, the availability, the calm and I forget some. Close to the main road and next to the Lion Rock, this family guest house is everything we were looking for. The mother cooks divinely well, and she is very available, the father takes care of his beautiful garden, and Prabash the son is adorable, he offers excursions and transport either by tuk-tuk or by car. He even picked us up at the airport 3 hours away. The prices are very reasonable. He took us to Polonaruwa, Dambula and Anuradhapura. The lion rock is very close as well as bars and restaurants and shops 10 minutes walk away. We stayed 4 nights. The price / quality ratio is exceptional.
