Ruins is one of the best experiences I have ever had.
Ruins is one of the best experiences I have ever had. The staff is very nice. The food, the rooms are amazing. I invite all local and foreign people to come here and have fun. Located outside the city, it is a quiet and pleasant place to stay. In all respects, Ruins is a beautiful hotel located in Polonnaruwa. I am thankful to all the employees including the management for helping to make my holiday beautiful.creation - 8.0Scored 8.0
The site seeing of historical places were the best.
The site seeing of historical places were the best. Most of the time we ate at the hotel and visited some locals and shared a meal with them. We hired a vehicle during the tour, This gave us the flexibility to get around. Net time I'll try to get there in the cooler months, mid December.

Lot of ancient locations and relics.
Lot of ancient locations and relics. Can gain much information about historical Polonnaruwa era of Sri Lanka. Spread is in close vicinity and can cover all areas even without a travel guide. My favourite places were Parakrama Samudraya, museum, King Parakramabahu's castle and office, Gal Viharaya, Thiwanka Pilima geya, Vatadage, Hetadage and Sathmahal Prasadaya. There are places to eat in Polonnaruwa new town (Very close by). We dined at NS Tomatoes where the service was good.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

It's worth making the effort to see the far northern and far southern area too.... and don't forget to check out the back roads in the quadrangle group. The site is full of tourists, but almost nobody at the above mentioned places.

Polonnaruwa has impressive archeological and historic areas which are in good conditions despite of the years. The Minneriya National Park, the Dambulla cave temple and the Sigiriya Rock are also near and it makes Polonnaruwa a perfect base to visit all of them. We would strongly recommend to others.AAnonymousHungary - 8.0Scored 8.0
We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale.
We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale. We got a tuk tuk into town (1500 rupees) and hired bikes for the day (1000 rupees each). We found a cycle route online and followed that, which took us to all the main sites. It was hot but we had a great time. Stop for a drink at the EKO hotel on the lake- a great spot!

- From $20.20 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 136 reviewsWe had a very nice stay here. We appreciate the helpfulness of the hosts who arranged bikes for us and found three for our children. They gave good advice about visiting Polonnaruwa and were friendly and helpful. They helped us arrange transportation to our next stop. The rooms were comfortable and clean and we had everything we needed. Having AC and a fan was nice. We enjoyed the breakfast and ordered dinner one night which was very tasty. There were lots of plants and ponds on the property which made a beautiful setting.
TobinCanada - From $29 per night9.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 34 reviewsThis is a delightful place to stay. So many good aspects to consider: friendly and kind staff, delicious meals, quiet location not far from the sightseeing, ability to arrange excursions and onward journey, wildlife on property: monkeys, deer, birds…, laundry service, ability to call in craftsmen to display their wares. And the meals…they are soooo good. And..suggest you ask your host any questions you can think of about Sri Lanka…you will learn a lot from his straightforward answers.

lornaUnited Kingdom - From $19 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 324 reviewsOur stay at Seyara was short with only a one night stay, but this hotel meet our needs and is priced appropriately. Staff were welcoming from the time we arrived and ensured our needs were met. We stayed in a family room, and the room was spacious whilst basic was clean and comfortable. Our room rate included breakfast and dinner, and my word, the dinner so far would have to be the best Sri Lankan meal we have had on our trip - thank you!The Aussie FamilyAustralia
- From $8 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 375 reviewsIt was such a remarkable stay in a house of a Sri Lankan family. The host was always willing to help with any of our requests, even when he really didn't have to. And the dinner requires a separate appraisal - the best food in Sri Lanka so far - real homemade dishes, so tasteful, and the portions were huge, make sure to try. Too bad we didn't have time for a safari, it would've been awesome without a doubt. Thank you so much, Kelum!

Sri lankan breakfirst with rice, coconut sambol, Dhal curry and fried egg was good meal to start the day. The cost is really lesser and satisfied with the service level for that much of amount spent.
