Great location to base yourself while visiting sites in the cultural triangle. Good selection of food for both breakfast and dinner and the staff are lovely and always happy to help.
Decent hotel with nice pool. A bit far from sigiriya rock. No spa and massage open due to Covid, but everywhere else in Sri Lanka there were massage facilities open?

Trivelig plass, men litt slitt. Seng som knirker, og ikke noe påfyll av vann o.l. de 3 overnattingene vi hadde der. Du må ta med alt av snacks og annet du måtte ønske.
It was a nice place with big rooms. A little far from anything so you had to take a hotel car which is more expensive than finding a tuk tuk on your own. Menu is very limited for vegetarian options.
Excellent location close to Lions Rock. Friendly staff and delicious food.

Staffs are nice and changed room for us upon request...Breakfast is good.
My two nights at this resort were lovely! The whole staff was quite nice and delightful. The rooms were large and the breakfast was by far the best I had in my two weeks in Sri Lanka.
A wonderful hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. They made us feel very welcome from the start, and the entrance leads on to a nice grassy field. In from reception is a large refreshing swimming pool that helped me get my evening swim.
The nice room was simple and comfortable and bathroom smelt lovely!
The restaurant had a good variety of food fruit and drinks for breakfast, and there was again a great choice for the buffet dinner. I ordered off the a la carte menu too and the portions were generous and delicious!
Thank you for making it a special stay!
Lovely hotel great bungalows in the trees. You can have buffet food or a Al acarte menu . We did Al carte reasonably priced not an extensive choice but enough. Food very good .

Good property in a green resort like ambience. Good value for money. Food was a very pleasant surprise - excellent quality of cooking - both Sri Lankan and Continental. Very good breakfast. Staff were very helpful. WiFi accessible in rooms and common area. Decent swimming pool though a bit shallow.
However too many flies in the open dining area in daytime as well as nighttime - which made dining a less pleasant experience despite the good food - the staff were clueless what to do about the flies. Room lighting was too low & gloomy; and no solutions provided. Nice large room & bathroom although furnished sparsely. But sunlight streaked into the bed through the skylight disturbing one's sleep.
Hôtel extrêmement bien situé pour faire les visites environnantes (Dambula, Lion rock Sigiriya, polonnaruwa, safari, etc)
Le personnel est charmant et aux petits soins et la réception très efficace pour l’organisation des transports.
Buffets variés et bien présentés dans un restaurant agréable. Nourriture de qualité.
Bons cocktails et jus frais au bar le soir pour l’apéro.
Belle piscine dans un jardin bien entretenu.
Les chambres sont spacieuses et propres.
Nous avons énormément apprécié notre séjour dans cet établissement.
We really enjoyed our stay at Camellia Resort. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. And, the staff was terrific! Everyone was so helpful and friendly! One thing that really made our stay great was the Food and Beverage Manager, Roshan, going out of his way to make sure that our dietary restrictions were accommodated at every meal. We were very pleased with the food options, especially all the Sri Lankan dishes! The only downside for us was that there was no wifi available in the room, so we had to go to the restaurant or lobby to access wifi. Other than that, we were very happy with our stay at Camellia Resort!
Bra hotell i fridfullt läge bland risfälten. Trevlig personal men receptionspersonalen var otydliga så vi måste betala för bastu trots att vi uppfattade att det ingick när vi tog en spa behandling.
Snålt att ta betalt för bastu tycker vi.
Really great hotel - lovely staff, immaculately clean - comfortable beds - great food - amazing value - We are 'independant' travellers and it would have been good to have had a bit more information available at reception about Sigiriya and the surrounding areas, however manager was very helpful and arranged TukTuks and taxis as required.
ein sehr grosszügig angelegtes resort mit grünflächen und einem schönen pool. das abendbuffet wird leider von schrummschrumm alleinunterhalter unterlegt, beides nicht meine favoriten. dafür ist das team, besonders an der rezeption ausserordentlich bemüht, freundlich und effizient
Een prima hotel om Sigirya en omgeving te bezoeken
Mooie ruime en schone kamer.
Een fijn zwembad. Het personeel is zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het dinerbuffet was niet slecht, maar de curry's waren zeer vlak van smaak.
