"Overall, this hotel is very average. There were a few positive and negatives. I’ll start with the positives. After asking for water and toiletries, they were eventually provided. They let me shower after checkout and stored my bag, which was nice!
The room is very average, but there was a gap above the door that didn’t shut all the way which let bugs in at night. There was loud music late into the early morning hours from neighboring hotels. And, perhaps the most offsetting aspect for me was...

"The guest house looked very nice and on the second floor was the breakfast tables but we had our room on the ground floor and the room was very dark and the bathroom was old. There was not a lamp near the bed so you could not read in the evening. The host family was very friendly and we used e.g. the washing service."

"Had a wonderful stay at Twenty Two! The property is located in a quiet area of the beach but a short walk from anything you need. Views from the rooms are incredible, especially at sunset! Thank you for a great stay."

"Great location. A few meters away from the street. Decent size room , big bathroom. NO bed sheet to cover yourself with; only blanket. Very welcoming host. The kitchen on rooftop was great for the view but very filthy sink. Of course certain people do not clean after themselves. I recommend the maid cleans everyday. Overall great stay"

Top Matara Hotel Reviews

Emerald Bay Resort Mirissa
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location and service! Breakfast was fantastic and the rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel is expanding and adding more rooms and an elevator in the next couple of weeks will be functioning. 24/7 service and close to all the restaurants and shops. Pool is on the rooftop very private and relaxed atmosphere. "

Coastline Mirissa Boutique hotel and spa
10/10 Excellent
"Everything about this hotel was amazing! The staff, the cleanliness and the amenities. "

Radisson Collection Resort, Galle
10/10 Excellent
"Lovely hotel and as always im Sri Lanka, great staff. Amazing location and views. Points to note. Dont pay for the higher floor option. Its not taken seriously by the hotel. We were put in the 2nd floor and told anything above ground was considered the higher floor collection. Cheeky.
You cant swim in the sea from the hotel. Its all foilage and coral.
Thats all said its right on the sea and is an incredible spot to spend time. "

Cape Weligama - Relais and Chateaux
10/10 Excellent
"10/10 hotel. Would highly recommend to anyone. It’s so incredibly beautiful with such lush tropical vegetation throughout the whole hotel. The rooms are huge, beautifully presented with everything you need. The service is amazing, with such friendly and helpful staff at every corner of the hotel. Nothing is too much for anyone here! We came on our honeymoon and are leaving feeling like we want to revisit soon! The pools are really lovely also, and the beach (although rocky) is really nice. A very memorable special stay at this hotel!"

Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa

Levels Unawatuna
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent place to stay near Dewata Beach and relax. The staff is very helpful and provide support."

Sea World Boutique Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"This hotel was a highlight of our trip and easily our favourite in Sri Lanka. The staff were incredibly friendly, the rooms were gorgeous and comfortable, and the location couldn’t be better- right on the beach and just a short walk to Coconut Tree Hill, Parrot Rock, and plenty of dining options. We were so impressed by the ocean-view rooms that we upgraded on the spot, and it made our stay even more special. We’re already looking forward to our next visit"

Lakraj Heritage
4/10 Poor
"We booked the most expensive room which cost a fortune. When we arrived the room was occupied as they had sold it twice. They put us in the cheapest room with noisy air conditioning and no lock on the patio door. Blaned Hotels.com and offered no compensation or even a courtesy something. "
