Top 10 Welikanda hotels and places to stay

"Placeringen fin til kulturel sightseeing - men lå tæt på hovedvej"

"Offers a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Located outside of town (will need to take a Tuk Tuk) but a great location for peace and quiet. Breakfast is very good/filling and dinner offers a nice selection of food which was very good. Highly recommend."

"Nice quiet place near a lake"

29-inch LED TV with satellite channels, TV

"Very disappointed, the hotel looked lovely in the photos but reality was a different story. With the exception of one waiter none of the staff seemed to know what they were doing. The pool was filthy and the water was green. The room was shabby and in desperate need of a refurb, broken bathroom fixtures, hole in sheet, dirty curtains, broken tie-backs. Bar area was okay but at breakfast our table was covered in flies. Avoid this place at all costs "

"I would recommend this place to everyone. I have no complaints and had a great experience! "

"Accueil tres sympathique. Location de velo facile. A deux pas du musee et de l arret de bus ... simple propre confortable et gentille proprietaire. "

"When I arrived I was told the hotel was closed. I took pictures to prove I was there as I had already paid through Expedia. I then had a ‘neighbour’ show up to ‘offer’ alternate accommodation at a very much more cost! The hotel is on a back street and when confronted with having to find an option on the day when I was hoping to visit the palace I conceded to the higher price. This was classic ‘bait & switch! Do not ever book this hotel!!!!"

"Hotell Nadun Rest har upphört att existera så det var i det närmaste omöjligt att hitta dit. Nya hotellägarna hade informerat Hotels.com om detta men gamla namnet låg fortfarande ute och då med info att det fanns frukost och restaurang. Dåligt av Hotels.com!! Nya ägarna var ändå väldigt hjälpsamma och ordnade frukost och tog oss till en restaurang på eget initiativ. Hotellet heter numera Monkey Garden och har väldigt enkla övernattningsrum."

"Très bon spot pour faire les visites "

Private beach, scuba diving, beach yoga, fishing

"Con - walls thin. You probably won't have neighbours but if you do you'll hear everything. Pro - good rooms, everything works, great location for relaxing, good food"

Top Welikanda Hotel Reviews

Hotel Sudu Araliya

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. Great staff Catered to our needs with care. "

Rock Cascade Homestay

4/10 Poor

"I have no idea why people have rated this place so high. I chose this place because she claimed to have wifi. She does not have wifi. She has a cellphone with a hotspot that she never turns on. If she does turn it on, it doesn't work when she takes the phone with her when she leaves. She also turns the phone off when she goes to sleep. I told her twice that I needed the internet to make a very important phone call late at night. She forgot. Turned off her cellphone. I had no internet, could not make the phone call, and I was screwed."
