Really good stay in dambulla

comfortable bedspacious showerimmaculate groundsfriendly staff
I stayed for 3 nights. The hotel is surrounded by greenery providing a good escape from city life. I found the bed comfortable and the shower quite spacious. The hotel grounds are immaculate and the staff were friendly and did everything to.
The electricity fell out one night. A big emergency light turned on in the rooms. It happened in the middle of the night and woke up the whole family.
