Featuring pool views, Wildescape Polonnaruwa in Polonnaruwa features accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a terrace and a restaurant. Complimentary WiFi is available.

There is a private bathroom with bidet and free toiletries in each unit, along with a hairdryer. Just had a wonderful two night stay in this beautifully kept hotel, set in woodland allowing wildlife-watching from the balcony. . The room was immaculately clean, light, airy and well presented. The staff were super friendly and very helpful in making our stay comfortable and our onward journey seamless. The breakfast, lunch and dinner were beautifully presented and excellent value.. We hired bikes (organised by the hotel) which were great for getting to and around the ancient city. Highly recommend a stay at Wildesacpe.

Located in Polonnaruwa, 2.5 km from Gal Viharaya and 2.9 km from Polonnaruwa Vatadage, Lake Cabin offers air conditioning. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk and room service for guests. Review: An Unforgettable Stay at Lake Cabin Our stay at Lake Cabin was absolutely magical! The view was the most breathtaking we have ever seen— view of swimming monkeys, water buffalo, and countless beautiful birds was an experience we will never forget. The owner was amazing—so friendly and welcoming. He went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. He even brought us breakfast at 5 AM before our early morning safari, which was incredibly kind and thoughtful. We also highly recommend the cooking class hosted by his sister and niece. It was a fantastic experience, and we learned so much about local cuisine while enjoying a warm and friendly atmosphere. If you're looking for a place with stunning nature, exceptional hospitality, and unique experiences, Lake Cabin is the perfect choice!

Located within 200 metres of Polonnaruwa Clock Tower and 1 km of Deepa Uyana in Polonnaruwa, Man Guest Polonnaruwa offers accommodation with seating area. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service. What we liked most about the place was the location and the owners. Perera, the owner and his wife are the sweetest people, they cook really amazing food. They served us a lot (i think there were about 7 types) of homemade curries (my favourite was the jackfruit curry). The rooms were very big and the beds really comfy. The bathroom is basic but has the basics covered, we had hot water all the time although, to be fair, we didn t really need it. The place was very very clean. I would absolutely recommend it

Boasting a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. Everything here is exceptional! I've stayed at many guest houses, but this is by far the calmest and most peaceful place I've ever booked. The owner is very kind, friendly, and extremely helpful. The rooms are spotless, and the facilities are excellent for the price. It's also conveniently located close to Parakrama Samudra (just 1.8 km away). I truly enjoyed my freedom here, and this stay has become one of the most unforgettable journeys I've had. If you're looking for a budget-friendly place that is clean, calm, and comfortable, there's simply no better choice than this!

Located within 400 metres of Gal Viharaya and 1.5 km of Nelum Pokuna Lotus Pond in Polonnaruwa, Ruins Villa offers accommodation with seating area. There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. We booked two of the three rooms and had the best stay here. Uppila the owner/host picked us up from the bus stop and he made our stay really enjoyable. Making connections with his family was a highlight. His wife cooked delicious Sri Lankan meals for us both breakfast and dinner, and catered to my friend's coconut allergy. We nearly didn't book this place because it was so cheap and we thought it might be substandard, however I can say it was just delightful, large basic room with mosquito net (no mossies in my room), a large big verandah looking out onto the garden. Uppila took us on a free guided night walk around his property to look for wildlife. Uppila booked our Ayurvedic massages, drove us there and waited. He organised a tuk tuk to the ruins. He was always up for a chat and we felt cared for. He was just so kind and friendly and open and honest. I feel privileged to have met him and his family. Stay here, you will love it!
