They have a wonderful garden with local trees like (mango, king coconut, avocado, jackfruit, etc). We really liked there, it felt like home:)

Hotel Kiyara exceeded all my expectations during my recent stay in Amritsar. Its proximity to the Golden Temple is unbeatable, making it a perfect choice for anyone visiting this iconic landmark. The host's warm hospitality was one of the highlights of my stay. They went out of their way to ensure my comfort and were always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests. Their kindness and attentiveness truly made me feel at home. In today's connected world, a reliable Wi-Fi connection is essential, and Hotel Kiyara delivered on this front. I had no issues staying connected, which was crucial for both work and leisure. Now, let's talk about the food – it was simply fantastic! The hotel's restaurant served mouthwatering dishes that showcased the rich flavors of Punjabi cuisine. From traditional curries to delectable desserts, every meal was a delight. In conclusion, Hotel Kiyara is a top-notch choice for your stay in Amritsar. Its unbeatable location, kind host, excellent Wi-Fi, and delicious food make it a standout option. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable experience near the Golden Temple.

    All the sites were wonderful - Sigiriya (the rock), Dambulla Caves (Amazing - especially cave #2), Polonnaruwa (Ancient City), Elephant Safari saw 40 to 50 elephants - Mothers and their children on a ridge at the very end of the safari! It was a great day to be able to see that many in the game reserve all together. I would spend minimum 3 but really 4 nights up here as the travel day really doesn't count because you aren't running out to see anything until the next day, so this way you have 3 full days to see all the sites and it isn't rushed. Also, you go out early in the morning as it gets too bloody hot in the middle of the day.

    Dambulla is a great place to explore, especially if you are a nature lover. Lots of greenery is preserved amidst the cave temples. Frescos at the Dambulla cave temple are amazingly beautiful. Inside the caves are cold though the outside temperature is steaming hot in the summer. Sigiriya rock is another attraction near Dambulla. It will take a half a day tour to climb up and down but if you want to explore more, the area surrounding the Sigiriya rock garden is vast and can wonder around the rock garden and historical ruins for hours. Good for hikers. Ibbankatuwa ancient grave yard, Pidurangala (A rock with nice view at the top, situated parallel to Sigiriya Rock are some of other nearby attractions.

    First of all we would like to thank the owner and the management for giving us the opportunity to stay at this beautiful resort. Colin and Ajit did a wonderful job of looking after us They are hard working, sincere and committed in their work. Few things that need to be sorted out were the overgrown creeper in the front which is preventing sunlight from entering the front of the house. Lighting in the room and bathroom need to be brighter. A stronger Wi-Fi would be welcome Overall an enjoyable stay Hope to visit again Regards

    I was there for two days and the only place we actually enjoyed was sigirya/pidurungala rock which are not even in a city. Tuk tuk drivers are scamming tourist like crazy and there is almost no sidewalk so it makes it very hard or impossible to walk. The golden temple is good to see but I wouldn’t go back. Overall I wouldn’t go back there. I saw it once and that is more than enough. Please note that if places in dambulla carry some religous meaning to you than your opinion might differ.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town. 65 Km from Anuradhapura, 16 km from Sigiria and Pedurangala, 110 km from Kandy and 65 km from Polonnaruva. Cave temple and golden temples are the main local attractions while nearby Sigiria and Pedurangala provide more adventure, in terms of climbing and view at the top. Plenty of places to eat local food for your taste, just say what and how you like it they will make it. Best places for a rice and curry lunch is on the main roads leading in to town, just outside of town. They serve lunch from noon to two in the afternoon.

    Staff and Owner were the Most helpful and kind we‘ve ever experienced anywhere ! Rooms were small but had everything you need and the pool and surrounding area were really beautiful. Additionally the hotel is in the best location possible, directly in the center of dambulla and only a 1min walk to the public bus stop. Everything in Dambulla is easily walkable and all attractions like the cave temple, safari or Sigiriya is easily reachable by TukTuk or bus in 30min or less.

    We had a great time at Lake Bliss. It is located out by a beautiful lake. At first we were worried with how far out the hotel was, but we found that the seclusion was wonderful. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and we had outdoor spaces to relax also. Our hosts were extremely helpful to us, answering every question we had, helping us plan our itinerary, and work through some personal issues we needed to tend to. I could not recommend Lake Bliss enough.

    We were given the best room in the hotel, overlooking the pool and felt like we were in the middle of the jungle, hearing bird song and sighting the lights of fireflies. The room was extremely spacious and very clean. Our host brought us water and candles and organised all of our day trips around Dambulla, we didn’t have to lift a finger. The gates of the hotel were also locked at night, making the accommodation feel very safe. Great value for money.

    Gamage was a great host, very accommodating and friendly. He helped us with all transfers, even got us to Sigiriya when our transfer wasn't available. The rooms where simple, but very clean. For this price it's much better than we hoped for. We had breakfast and dinner here and it was great. The resort was a very short walk from the bus stop and is close to Dambulla. Excellent experience all around.

    A special place off the beathen paths - great to learn and experience the rural sides of Sri Lanka. Pradeep is such a welcoming host and shares stories about his life and culture. You can visit the fields around and even take a swim in the river. 2 nights were nearly not enough time. Traveling to Dambulla or Sigirya is quite easy and Pradeep helps with any need. We'll come back!
