I booked this hotel by mistake. I thought I was booking a hotel in Wisconsin with a similar name, Sundara spa. I paid the travel protection fee and when I realized I booked a hotel out of the country minutes after I made the reservation, Expedia would not cancel this or immediately credit my account. It’s been three days and still no credit. I had to file a claim minutes after the mistaken booking. Then I booked a hotel in WI using Expedia again and when my daughter went to check in, they told her they had to charge her even though the room was paid in full bc I wasn’t physically there, she is 27, and I spoke with the hotel confirming that yes, I purchased the room and could easily show my cc and photo idea. They refused this and charged my daughter. I’m extremely unhappy with Expedia.

I had booked the hotel for three nights from 7th to 10th Feb 2020. The hotel is well located on the main road with easy accessibility to public transport. The room was however without any phone/intercom, the shower head was broken and there were no chairs to sit on. the lady at the reception was, however very helpful and courteous and resolved most issues albeit after a while. The swimming pool is rather small and shallow, 5ft being the deepest. No place for an exercise swim. The breakfast was well prepared and offered good choice of continental and Sri Lankan cuisine. Overall a satisfactory stay, thanks mainly to the lady at the reception.

Sundaras is a little gem in the heart of Dambulla, great location for sightseeing and the hotel gives you a ‘real’ experience of Sri Lanka. Staff were amazing and at hand 24 hrs. Big thanks to Sean, Liz, Sindhu, Asita, Tito, Saman (our driver) and the cleaning staff. They really ensured we got the best experience out of our trip. We planned our excursions through the hotel, really well organised, although a little pricey hiring driver with entrance fees. Good range of food although not as spicy as we would’ve liked. Overall had a great time here.

This hotel is very close to the dambulla cave, thus making it good option to stay here. There not many restaurants around hence you will end up with less options. The food is overly priced , less in quantity in comparison to other places in Srilanka.. They had place 2 water bottles inside fridge in our room we used it, there was no price tag mentioned anywhere in room. Guess the price this hotel must have charged.... A bottle that costs 50 rs was charged for 250rs.. very bad experience.

The hotel itself not something worth coming back to as the condition is just above average, provides all facilities of a intetnational 3 star hotel and a bit more. But the highlight is the sri lankan hospitality of the staff which make sure to provide with everything u need out of their way. It truly makes the guest more comfortable and at ease. Based on that alone and a very nice central location I would recomend this to all those looking for a low to mid budget stay.
