Hotel Tobiko ★★★

📍 No 24 Murugapuri Road, Upppuveli, Trincomalee

"A great hotel!!! We spent 7 nights there. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful. They cooked large shrimp for us and took us to Marble Beach, for an additional fee, of course. Breakfasts weren't very varied, but they were generous and filling. The hired help, a tall young man, was very helpful with our baby, playing with him while we ate. He even asked to be held. The girls who prepared our breakfast were also very sweet and kind. Our room was on the third floor, and we had the entire veranda to ourselves. It was very convenient for playing with the baby, hanging up wet clothes, looking at the stars, or drinking morning coffee. My husband smoked. The location is also good—third building from the beach. The beach is quite clean, much cleaner than in the tourist area of ​​Uppuvelli. There are plenty of fruit stalls and cafes nearby where locals eat—not as Instagrammable as tourist restaurants, but still delicious and three times cheaper. Cons: - There's no place to hang clothes in the room—no closet, no hooks, nothing to hang clothes on—we had a mountain of clothes in our suitcase and around it. We hung a lot of clothes on the veranda. - There was always a pack of local stray dogs by the fence; they're harmless but noisy. - There's no hot water. While it was cloudy, showering was uncomfortable, but it was fine later. - The WiFi is poor; I had better reception on the veranda. - There's no TV. It wasn't advertised, of course, but it was boring to wait out the midday sun without one. We're unlikely to return here again due to the wide variety of hotels, but for less demanding travelers, the place is perfectly fine."

Jungle Beach an Uga Experience - Trincomalee ★★★★★

📍 27th Kilometer Post Pulmoddai Road, Kuchchaveli, Trincomalee

"The hotel gave a lot of surprises. The performance after sunset was very ceremonial, with strong Sri Lankan local dances and songs, allowing you to immerse yourself in the teardrop of the Indian Ocean."

Havana Club Resort
7.3 (18 reviews)

Havana Club Resort ★★★

📍 No 07 Alles Garden, Trincomalee

"I visited this place with my wife in July 2025. We were travelling to Trinco for 2 days. We were running late so we contacted the property. They asked us the approximate time we would take to reach the place and informed us that they would keep the a/c on an hour before we reach so we would be comfortable on arrival. This one act of service is where I would start off my opinion of this place. Here the service is something other hotels need to ponder upon. The staff are very friendly. They make sure to find out our needs and try to resolve it asap. They helped us find a good deal for snorkeling in Pidgeon island, they prepared a special Sri Lankan style breakfast and lunch on our request, they arranged transport for us in the early hours of the morning (Pickme/Uber was not responding at that time) at the last moment with no extra charge and so on. The friendly service and attention to our care really touched us and made our trip more memorable. In respect to the rooms, there is some aspects that need attention. Shower Plumbing, exhaust were issues, itsy bitsy details missing that would otherwise perfect the stay there. But the room was neat, washroom was clean, moderately sound insulated room. The basic facilities needed in a 3-4 star room were met. The pool was small but ok, but if you are spending your time around Alles Garden and the beach, the pool is irrelevant. I would say that, I really enjoyed my stay there. I really thank the staff there. I hope you continue to provide such wonderful service and hopefully if fate gives us a chance, we would definitely visit the property again. Thank you Havana Club."

Nilaveli Royal Paradise

📍 1 9th Mile Post, Trincomalee

"A fantastic hotel! We stayed here for four nights and absolutely loved it. We've never regretted choosing this place. The main advantage of this hotel is its customer service. The owner is a local who genuinely cares about his guests and strives to make their stay as comfortable as possible. You truly feel a sense of home-like hospitality here. The entire staff is very polite, friendly, and attentive. They're always ready to help with any questions: order a tuk-tuk, suggest interesting and beautiful places, help organize a trip, make arrangements, or solve everyday problems. The owner was always ready to help and offer advice. He even showed us the surrounding area for free and gave us a short drive around the area, for which we're especially grateful. The room has everything you need for a comfortable stay: a shower with hot water, a hairdryer, an iron, air conditioning, and a fan. The bed linens and towels were clean. The bed was large and comfortable. The room was clean, and we didn't see any insects or other critters. Despite the convenient location, it was quiet at night. The rooms are located well back from the road, so traffic noise doesn't interfere with our rest. The hotel is very close to the ocean. Most attractions, points of interest, and activities in the area are about a 15-minute tuk-tuk ride away. I'd especially like to mention the food—everything was delicious. We felt very comfortable and relaxed here. A big thank you to the owner and the entire team for their care and the wonderful time we spent here. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to experience true Sri Lankan hospitality, not just an overnight stay. We would happily stay here again!"

Dyke Rest Hotels in Trincomalee

Dyke Rest

"The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, and the hotel is located on the most beautiful beach ever! Swimming was simply wonderful; a highlight is the fantastic reef for snorkeling. Breakfast costs extra, but it's delicious, and you have a great view of the ocean. Unfortunately, everything is so run down that I can't give it more than 3 stars. The rooms are small, musty, have hardly any power outlets, and not even a window. The towels were horribly dirty. The breakfast tables and the loungers on the beach are completely broken and uncomfortable. I think with a little investment, they could really create a little paradise here again!"

"A small house on the beach. The location is just a dream. But when we were inhabited, we were not waiting. The house smelled bad and the flying flies flew. The mouse ran at night. From the pleasant waves are constantly heard"

Aa Inn

"This is an excellent hotel, especially for the price. It has all the facilities you need, and everything was clean and comfortable. The staff were the best part of my stay. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. I wanted to go dolphin watching, and they arranged everything for me. They organized a tuk-tuk to pick us up from the hotel, take us to the boat, and bring us back afterwards, which made the whole experience completely hassle-free. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. It offers great value for money, and I will definitely be coming back. 10/10!"

Hotel Tobiko ★★★
"A wonderful place to stay, lovely room, great a/c, fan and shower, short stroll to the beach, nearby restaurants.. quiet at the hotel though. Breakfast is excellent, perfectly served, nothing too much trouble. For only the second time in my weeks in Sri Lanka I met fellow animal lovers, these people care, take in dumped puppies and kittens feed and love them. Go stay there, support them.."

Nilaveli Boutique Hotel
"A terrible experience. Our plan was to relax and do PADI diving, so we booked for three nights with a 24-hour cancellation policy. The room was awful; it smelled damp, crows were croaking on the ceiling, and it was very noisy. The window wouldn't even open. The room was actually more expensive than many other options in Upuveli or other more interesting areas. The worst part is that we only stayed one night and canceled the other two because they didn't give us any trouble. They told us they would refund our money, then excused themselves by saying that Booking.com's policies didn't allow it. A complete lie. Then they said they would refund it but that they weren't a big hotel and couldn't afford such excuses. Two weeks later, we're still waiting for a refund of about €80. Day after day, they keep giving us the runaround, saying they've gone to the bank and the transfer should be arriving soon, but we never get an answer. I don't recommend this place so you don't have the same bad experience we did. The room we were assigned was nothing like the ones shown in the pictures on ***********, TripAdvisor, or Google. There's nothing around, and few restaurants. The receptionist was very friendly and the breakfast was very good. The cancellation and refund process was terrible."
