Heritage rangiri villa — Hotel in Sri Lanka

I haven't seen anyone mention it yet but the most important thing about this place is that there is zero natural light coming into the rooms. I thought from the photos that there would be at least some but the windows are so small and made from that crystal kind of glass so the room is fully dark even in daytime. If you're comfortable with that then it's a nice value place right next to the golden temple. Sarath was nice and responsive, flexible about my late arrival time, and drove me to the bus stand in his tuk tuk when I was leaving at a price marginally cheaper than Pickme offers. I heard from other guests he also does tours and they appreciated him greatly as a guide.

However - no towel or even a mini soap were in the room upon arrival, and I can't understand a hospitality venue that doesn't provide these absolute basics. Food was whatever - hoppers, an egg, bananas, and tea - standard for a free breakfast. A bunch of monkeys came in and ransacked the place right after I was done eating (see photo), I thank them for...

Very nice Place to stay in Dambulla. The room was very clean, with a lot of space. Sarath, the owner, Is so kind and helpfull. He went to pick up us at the city center with his car for free and the next day he bring us to discover anuradhapura ancient city for a very fear price. He told us a lot of thing about anuradhapura and buddhism and history of Sri Lanka. Chase always good Karma! Thank you...

Amazing place, delicious breakfast, and very affordable! The owner is an incredibly hospitable person—he picked us up from the bus station and drove us to the villa. The next day, he arranged transportation to Kandy, went with us to the bus stop, and waited to make sure we got on the right bus to our destination! I highly recommend this place and will definitely be...
