    We had a really nice stay during our holiday. the budget room was modern and very well taken care of. We had an air conditioning, a work desk, and a good-sized bed. the location was fantastic, being very close to the bus station in a busy area. the nearby Café Ca'puccino, located just 1 km away, was a nice surprise.

The hotel is super close to the bus stop, making it easy to access other attractions in the area. Additionally, there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, providing ample dining and shopping options for families.

    During my recent stay at Tinaya Hotel in Dambulla, I was pleased with two notable features. the room provided was in good condition, complete with a comfortable bed and necessary amenities. the room came equipped with air conditioning, ensuring a cool and pleasant stay even during the hottest days. Another positive aspect was the lovely terrace in front of the room, offering a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding nature.

    This was a slight inconvenience as hot water was not readily available for showering or other purposes.

    I had a fantastic stay at Tinaya in Dambulla! the friendly family who manages the place went above and beyond to ensure my visit was enjoyable. They even offered to drive me to Lyon Rock and Pidurangala at any time I wanted, and waited for me to finish my visit. the location was perfect for exploring these attractions. the hotel's restaurant served delicious Sri Lankan and international food at very affordable prices. I particularly loved their Kottu dish, it was absolutely delicious. Tinaya was conveniently located right in the center of the city, making it a great base for my adventures. I highly recommend staying here!

    No complaints! .
