Hotel East Lagoon, hotel in Batticaloa

Located along the banks of Batticaloa Lagoon, Hotel East Lagoon offers tranquil and comfortable accommodations within a 10-minute drive from Batticaloa town.

Big hotel with pool and conference hall etc...not exactly a Sri Lanka traditional place which is what we look for as a tourist like us. Everything worked including the elevator.

    It is an amazing city surrounded by the lagoon and the beach. The morning sunrise and the evening sunset is must see for all the travellars. The lagoon crabs and fish together with some tamil food should be a good stay. Pasikudah beach is just 30 mins away from the center city.

    Nice place.

    Nice place. Nothing exceptional in the way of sights but I found the town engaging. A pleasant place to spend a day. One word of warning - my bus didn't stop at the bus station but hammered through heading south. Fortunately my hotel was just off the bus route and the bridge is a major landmark so when I realised where I was it was easy to get a tuktuk to take me there. But ask the driver if the bus terminates at Batti!

    Hot and dry weather, but superb beaches and tasty food.

    Hot and dry weather, but superb beaches and tasty food. Please try to interact with the locals there. Do not just mind your business and leave. They are very friendly and sweet people. There are a lot we can learn from them. My favorite spots were the Kalladi region where there's only a little village by the sea.

    It was great to stay on the lake eventually, at Riviera Resort which is central, and you could also walk to the beaches. This was after our bad experience at the previous place which we just left without even checking in. Relatively cheap, central, nice restaurant, superb service, clean and very functinal and spacious room and bathroom, 1980s style, but a clean and niceswimming pool, eagle nest, great views, and a great break going up the east coast. Nice laid back town to explore and meet the locals.

    Every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. Very clean, hygienic and spacious. Most city points like Dutch fort, Batticaloa gate, Gandhi park, churches, Kallady bridge are nearby. Good for family leisure stay and also business travel on budget. Amazing location, just in front of the lagoon. Most importantly the owner was very nice and friendly. He arranged everything we asked within a short time. Can reach Kallady beach by five minute drive. Would highly recommend it for people mixing work and pleasure.

    probably the only place in Batticaloa with a traditional open house and veranda with the classic view of Batticaloa lagoon with net fishing catamarans and fort a home stay rather than a nobody in a mega hotel complex and unnecessary frivolities freshly cooked food , all typical of eastern province and locally sourced or from the owner's organic estate and farm. dawn, day or evening ,sitting in the planters chair on the veranda is great.

    Juda is very welcoming and friendly! Loved staying here. He provided a delicious breakfast upon request and arranged a bicycle for me to ride around the city, all at an affordable price. Has great recommendations for food and things to do around town. Accommodations are neat and quiet. Great place to stay in Batticaloa! Walking distance to the beach and biking distance to the town.

    The first impressions were great and one of the most calm and relaxing places I have been to. The place is full with great hospitality and they were so nice and accommodating. One of the best beaches in Sri Lanka and the beach is just near to the Villa. Very much affordable rates and it’s worth to the amount you pay.

    My entire family enjoyed our stay here. Felt like home. Excellent service by the Manager and all the staff. Very understanding and accommodating owner who checked up on things via telephone. Make sure you try out their variety of Sri Lankan cuisine made to order by their resident chef Mrs. Haren. Beautiful property.

    Juda and Amutha were fantastic hosts, so helpful and friendly. We stayed for three nights to explore Batticaloa, where we rented bicycles from the accommodation and were given recommendations for where to explore and where to eat. Beds were comfy, breakfast was great, and the rooms were clean. Highly recommend!!

    Huge, beatiful natural garden right on the lagoon. The swimming pool is a great place to end the day after a long sweaty day, with great sunset views. Bicycles are available for rent at the hotel. And the greatest bonus - it has the best restaurant in town.

    Really nice garden with bungalows. The owners are really nice and even made us some breakfast even though we didn't order it the day before. Very close to the beach, but there are no shops around so you have to bring something from the town.
