Ruins is one of the best experiences I have ever had.
Ruins is one of the best experiences I have ever had. The staff is very nice. The food, the rooms are amazing. I invite all local and foreign people to come here and have fun. Located outside the city, it is a quiet and pleasant place to stay. In all respects, Ruins is a beautiful hotel located in Polonnaruwa. I am thankful to all the employees including the management for helping to make my holiday beautiful.creation - 8.0Scored 8.0
The site seeing of historical places were the best.
The site seeing of historical places were the best. Most of the time we ate at the hotel and visited some locals and shared a meal with them. We hired a vehicle during the tour, This gave us the flexibility to get around. Net time I'll try to get there in the cooler months, mid December.

Lot of ancient locations and relics.
Lot of ancient locations and relics. Can gain much information about historical Polonnaruwa era of Sri Lanka. Spread is in close vicinity and can cover all areas even without a travel guide. My favourite places were Parakrama Samudraya, museum, King Parakramabahu's castle and office, Gal Viharaya, Thiwanka Pilima geya, Vatadage, Hetadage and Sathmahal Prasadaya. There are places to eat in Polonnaruwa new town (Very close by). We dined at NS Tomatoes where the service was good.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

It's worth making the effort to see the far northern and far southern area too.... and don't forget to check out the back roads in the quadrangle group. The site is full of tourists, but almost nobody at the above mentioned places.

Polonnaruwa has impressive archeological and historic areas which are in good conditions despite of the years. The Minneriya National Park, the Dambulla cave temple and the Sigiriya Rock are also near and it makes Polonnaruwa a perfect base to visit all of them. We would strongly recommend to others.AAnonymousHungary - 8.0Scored 8.0
We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale.
We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale. We got a tuk tuk into town (1500 rupees) and hired bikes for the day (1000 rupees each). We found a cycle route online and followed that, which took us to all the main sites. It was hot but we had a great time. Stop for a drink at the EKO hotel on the lake- a great spot!

- From DKK 65.55 per night9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 47 reviewsLakshman is one of the best hosts I've ever met! Due to a train delay, I arrived at the guest house late on the day of check-in, but Lakshman was still very patient and waited for me. When visiting the Polonnaruwa Ancient City, he recommended a cost-effective and fantastic tuk-tuk driver. Before departing, he even picked lotus flowers from a pond for me to offer to sleep buddha! Lakshman's thoughtfulness made me have a great impression of Sri Lanka!
YU-LINGTaiwan - From DKK 55.20 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 375 reviewsIt was such a remarkable stay in a house of a Sri Lankan family. The host was always willing to help with any of our requests, even when he really didn't have to. And the dinner requires a separate appraisal - the best food in Sri Lanka so far - real homemade dishes, so tasteful, and the portions were huge, make sure to try. Too bad we didn't have time for a safari, it would've been awesome without a doubt. Thank you so much, Kelum!DmytroUkraine
- From DKK 110.40 per night9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 448 reviewsThe hotel is well situated surrounded by rice paddies and is a peaceful location. The hotel has a beautiful tropical landscaped garden with magnificent pool area which is welcome at the end of a hot day traipsing around the ancient site. The hotel is a family run business where the young members are the front of house and do a great friendly job. Breakfast was large and a good start to the day of a mixture of Sri Lankan and western.NarelleAustralia

The staff also helped us with the PCR tests and the transfers - thanks a lot!!
MariaBelgium - From DKK 82.80 per night9.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 83 reviewsBest place to stay in Polonnaruwa according to me. The house is in the nature and very close to the temples. We had great discussions about the country and got to learn more about Sri Lankan. Our host made us an amazing rice and curry and we went on a night walk to see wild animals. We have been able to rent great bikes to visite the temples. I really recommend!

His son Dilshara was also a great help to us; he cycled with us to show us a beautiful way to the Polonnaruwa Ancient City Museum. Be sure to have Auntie prepare you a meal, because that was the best home cooked diner we had during our stay in Sri Lanka.
