사르보다야 삼마 바사 레지던스

Stayed Two nights at the guest house, it’s centrally located just behind the Historic Dalada Maligawa there’s a walk way adjacent to the temple hugging the lake which takes you right upto the busy city center. Hence it was good choice. Clean AC rooms & Ananda was the multi talented receptionist cum cook etc.. hence there’s no express check-ins. If no one’s at the front desk walk straight into the restaurant/ Kitchen you may find the staff there. There was another Lady /Olu ( if I got his name right) who was also very cordial making sure my stay was safe. Morning Breakfast prepared by Ananda was awesome Srilankan food.

I stayed here because of Sarvodaya, which is a great NGO (look them up!) and the proceeds support them, and also the staff who are villagers trained up by the organisation. Putting this aside though, it is a very good hotel! The room was clean, A/C and TV worked perfectly and the breakfast was delicious. Great location close to the temple. Just need to advertise themselves better! And also reinstate some of its tours which it seemed to do before but not anymore.
