Stayed in this HORRIBLE Hotel for two nights and it was a nightmare! The rooms were not clean and there were hundreds of little insects.... creeping their way from under the door... Had a time dealing with them.. I got Housekeeping to help get rid of them, but it was a makeshift solution where they inserted toilet tissues to block... more

We stayed in this hotel just for one night (thankfully) to visit the sites in Polunawarra. First impressions upon arrival were positive, but then it all went rapidly downhill from there. We arrived late afternoon (past usual check in time) and still had to wait for the room to be 'cleaned'. When we got to the room, it seemed ok,... more

When I first read the reviews for Sudu Araliya, I was very reluctant to go ahead with the trip. However, it was better than expected. The rooms were clean and decent, although it would be best to request for a room that opens up towards the garden area - our room opened up to a grass pit shared between a... more

The overall experience seems to be average. It could be a wonderful stay if the staff was bit polite and friendly. more

On arrival our first impressions were slightely changed. There was no porter or hotel staff to help us carry our luggage upstairs.. They all waited at reception... more

Had the 'pleasure' of staying at this 'hotel' for 4 nights when we did the cultural triangle. Out of the 7 hotels we stayed in during our entire trip of the island; this was by far the worst. In fact: in all my years of travelling this surely is in my top 3 of worst hotels. Let's start with the... more

Stayed at the Sudu Araliya in April 2005 and regretted every minute. This was by far the worst hotel we've stayed in in Sri Lanka. It is unfortunately one of the "best" in Polonnaruwa - but there are nice hotels in Giritale and Sigirya Areas so if possible stay in that area and drive in. Of course if you do... more

The location of the hotel and the surroundings are very nice. Once upon a time this place might have been a nice place to stay, but not anymore. We booked a room online and prepaid for it. Upon arrival they couldn't find our booking. So we were first put in a room with dead geckos and bugs. We talked to... more
