Black Mustang Hotel, hotel in Dambulla

Located in Dambulla, 17 km from Sigiriya Rock, Black Mustang Hotel provides accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

Modern property. Super friendly staff. We arrived late on SL New Year’s Eve and they arranged a pizza delivery for us as the cooks had all left earlier on. We had a feast of a breakfast on New Year’s morning after returning from our very early balloon trip. Staff could not have been nicer. Loved the en-suite alfresco (very private) shower and nice balcony.

Jm Resort, hotel in Dambulla

Situated in Dambulla, 20 km from Sigiriya Rock, Jm Resort features accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a terrace.

We planned to stay one night, but ended up staying three night, because we liked the place so much! The family who runs this place is super lovely, friendly, extremely welcoming and helpful. The breakfast is delicious and you definitely won't be hungry afterwards. :) The family also helped us renting a scooter. To have a scooter is quite useful, because the accomodation is a bit outside of the center. However, the dambulla cave temple is in walking distance. The room was clean, beds are very comfortable and the terrace is nice for sitting outside in the morning or evening and enjoying a coffee or a beer. We definitely recommend this place and hopefully come back one day!

    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.

    Upon arriving I found out that I had forgotten the passports and traveling documents at the hotel in Colombo. Very stupid but immediately Athula, the owner, offered his assistance and next day all passports arrived by courier. Althula also brought us to the cave rock. We used Dambulla to visit Sigiriya and Anuradhapura which was very good from a traveling point of view. Breakfast was good and we enjoyed the location as it is situated in a quiet area. So we had a very good stay also because of the kindness of Athula and his family.

    Very pretty, clean and comfortable room in quiet neighbourhood, yet close to city centre and the Dambulla cave temple. We loved it. Excellent breakfast. The family running the place is absolutely adorable. They showed us around with their car, took us to a local dance show and for a Ayurveda massage, and we visited gorgeous places we would not have found ourselves. Best experience in Sri Lanka, I would give a 12 rating, if I could. Many thanks and very best wishes to Madhu and Sanje and their lovely family.

    The owner is really amazing, he is always with you and ready for whatever need. He took us to visit his own plantation and garden and explained every plant and then he took us also to visit the city of Dambulla and the Lion Rock with a tuk tuk, which made the experience even better to go around with a local. The food at his house is incredible, all organic and produced in his garden. Definitely recommend this place for an authentic and local experience!

    The room was nicely designed, very authentic and stylish. The pool was good, not too chlorinated and the breakfast was excellent too. There are squirrels all around and the history of this hotel is very unique (it used to be a mango plantation, the resort was build around the mango trees, but now the mango trees are too old and are not giving fruit but they do create a cooling shade)

    The location is perfect. Directly in the centre of Dambulla, but you do not hear the noise from the street at all. I really liked the approach of the owner, who gave us useful tips, provided us with his scooter and helped us with the doctor appointment, as one of our family members got sick and needed medicine. The hospitality of the owner was just perfect.
