I recently booked Golden Star Hotel in Dambulla for my Indian guests, and I am extremely satisfied with their service. The hotel is excellent in every aspect — clean, comfortable, and well-maintained rooms that made the stay very pleasant. The staff provided outstanding hospitality and took great care of the guests throughout their stay. A special mention to the manager, who was very friendly, professional, and always ready to help. His support made everything smooth and stress-free. The breakfast was also very good, with a nice variety and great taste, which my guests really enjoyed. My guests were very happy with the service, food, and overall experience. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Dambulla, especially for group tours.

Excellent service, and a very comfortable place to stay. We loved the Sri Lankan breakfasts too. ☹ There wasn’t anything we didn’t like.Posted on Booking TeresaVerified Exceptional ☺ Lovely helpful staff. Nothing was a problem . Clean rooms . Nice food .would recommend. Lovely bakery over the road tooPosted on Booking BearVerified Would recommend ☺ Cheap ways stay ☹ I didn’t find warning that shower is cold water onlyPosted on Booking TakashiVerified 観光の拠点としては最高です ☺ 到着前から、ツアー、車の手配を全てお願いしました 料金は少し高いかも知れませんが、質の高いドライバーで快適に過ごせました 従業員は、フレンドリーで良かったです ☹ 残念ながら、窓が無く、圧迫感がありました 食堂が工事中で残念でしたPosted on Booking WawtaVerified Very Good ☺ “The staff at this accommodation in Dambulla were very kind and attentive, always willing to help whenever we needed anything. We truly appreciated their caring service. We stayed in a budget room located on the ground floor at the back of the building. The room does not have air conditioning, and the bathroom is outside the room, which may be a little inconvenient, especially for female travelers — something worth noting when booking. The location is very close to the Dambulla Cave Temple and can be reached on foot. We recommend visiting the temple in the late afternoon, when there are fewer people and the sun is not too strong. If you return after dark, it’s a good idea to bring a flashlight, as the road has very limited lighting. Overall, a simple place with very caring staff and a convenient location for visiting the cave temple.”Posted on Booking MíriamVerified muy positivo, repetiría ☺ las habitaciones estaban muy bien acondicionadas y la cama de calidad ☹ Quizá el desayuno podría mejorar no en cuanto a cantidad porque nos sirvieron un gran desayuno pero si calidad, aunque el personal fue muy atento y al día siguiente pedíamos fruta y todo fue bien.

The food was fresh, tasty, and offered good variety. Service quality was outstanding, with great attention to detail throughout our stay. Highly recommended!Posted on Tripadvisor SaraVerified Se cercate un posto da star bene questo é quello giusto! Come sentirsi a casa! Camere davvero belle e stra pulite e letti molto comodi. Ci hanno trattato benissimo: drink di benvenuto, colazione super buona e abbondante e sono stato super gentili perché siamo usciti troppo tardi per la cena, nei dintorni era tutto chiuso e ci hanno portato loro il cibo da asporto in camera. Davvero tutto perfetto. Consiglio vivamente.Posted on Tripadvisor AlexVerified Esperienza bellissima Io e la mia ragazza abbiamo soggiornato in quuesto hotel, molto accogliente, le persone sono gentilissime e super disponibili, le camere hanno l'aria condizionata (che serve) e sono molto confortevoli, a colazione abbiamo mangiato veramente bene e tanto, frutta dolci o cose tipiche loro. Veramente bello.Posted on Tripadvisor Saijal PVerified Great stay in the family Villa We had a wonderful stay at Golden Stars Dambulla! The family villa is very spacious, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully decorated. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and it was clear that a lot of care has gone into making sure guests have everything they need — even portable lights for power cuts, which was a great touch. The communal laundry room was a really nice bonus, especially for a longer stay. The staff were absolutely lovely: friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with bags or anything else we needed. They are currently building a new restaurant, which already looks fantastic, and we wish them every success when it opens. The location is perfect for sightseeing around Dambulla, Habarana, and Sigiriya. We stayed for four nights and truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended!Posted on Tripadvisor Tharika PVerified Excellent stay at Golden Star Hotel, Dambulla! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms were spacious with all necessary facilities, and the food was delicious with good variety. The location is very convenient for visiting Dambulla and nearby attractions. Overall, a peaceful and pleasant experience. Highly recommended!Posted on Tripadvisor Best Time LankaVerified A Wonderful Stay with Friendly Staff I had a wonderful stay at Golden Star Hotel in Dambulla. The cleanliness was excellent, and the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was fantastic—comfortable, well-maintained, and relaxing. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area.Posted on Tripadvisor chokki oVerified Great Hospitality Great Value Don't Miss it The Golden Star hotel was recommended to us by our driver. And what a joy it was to arrive and be greeted by the friendly hosts who went out their way to ensure our stay was a happy and comfortable one. Conveniently situated just a short walk from the Golden Temple and near to the Dambulla Caves, the hotel and its rooms met all of our needs and more. Just about 6 months newly built, the rooms are spacious, well equipped, clean, with modern en suite shower and WC. Bedside cabinets have lockable drawers for valuables. WiFi is available and plug sockets handily fit both local and UK accessories. Whilst there is no formal restaurant as yet, (there are plans to open one soon) Thakshila kindly provided us with home cooked truly delicious Sri Lankan food. Excellent accommodation and great value for money. Thakshila and the manager really made us feel at home. A wonderful three days stay. Highly recommended. This is a place you can not afford to miss.
