    Very quiet and nice hotel. The host was super helpful and helped us organize our trip and transport on very short notice (2-3 hours before starting). Breakfast was plenty and the Freitag platter a highlight. 10-15 minute walk to the city center. Can definitely recommend

    The road to the property had no lighting, but a tuk tuk to the main road was very cheap so it wasn’t much of an inconvenience.

    Nice big rooms set in a pretty resort. The worker was so helpful in organising us Tuk Tuks and he also organised us a taxi at 4:30am for the sunrise hike at Pidurangala.

    The facilities and management were great! Great location- just a 12-15 min walk to the city centre and bus stop. Beautiful place and totally worth it for the price they offer the rooms for.

    I like the place very much. Its location allows to visit the Cave temple on foot, also it's close to bus station and food market, but at the same time you don't hear the noise of cars. The owner was really nice, the price is more than available. You also have some welcome shampoo, shower gel and even hair dryer.

    Nice place with a small garden and cute little terrace. The host was speaking fluent english and helped us with booking a safaritrip and a private driver (both trips were with drivers who speak very basic english). Breakfast included a lot of breakfast, we used laundry service which they offer.

    Nothing. Bring a torch if you are walking home at night.

    I really enjoyed my stay here at the New Peacock Resort. For the price this is excellent value. Clean, comfortable room with AC and Wifi. What more could you ask for. The host was very helpful and gave us some great recommendations.

    There were 3 shower handsets in the bathroom.I couldn't figure out which one is the correct one for hot water, pressure of the water was unfortunately not enough. But 1-2 day stays , this hotel is a perfect choice if you want to visit Dambulla and around

    The hotel is just 5 minutes walk from Dambulla city center. You can even consider walking to Dambulla Cave Temples area , it took me 30 minutes from the hotel to the Temple Entrance. Sigiriya is just 30 minutes by bus , Polonnaruwa ruins is just 1.5 hours by bus from Dambulla centre. Even though it is close to the city centre, the property is in a forest full of tropical birds, fabulous. The room was spacious and clean. Definetely , good value for your money.

    No TV facilities but owner gave Dialog access no,but it was not working. But I propose it would be better if the room has TV facilities.

    Location is very good.Calm atmosphere.Parking facilities was good.

    The staff is very nice and helpfull, when i was walking from the busstop to the hotel a tuktuk driver asked me where i was going. I thought it was just another tuktuk driver that wanted to give me a ride but i said i didnt need it. Then he made it clear he is actually also the "main" tuktuk driver for the resort and he will bring me for free because the road to the hotel was a bit flooded because of the rain. When we got there he actually didnt want any money. Also the other staff was very helpfull, they once dropped me off in town because they were going anyway and when i had troubles with the lock of my door they called someone and it got fixed in a couple minutes. The rooms are spacious, the bathroom is clean and the beds are comfortable. The location is a little bit out of the centre so it is very calm and peacefull. It is a 10 minute walk to the main road which is definitely walkable, but because of the rainy days during my stay the road was a bit muddy.

    It was a bit sketchy to find - we arrived in the middle of the night and it was hard to find.

    Very clean room, shower with hot water, ac and fan in the room. The guy working there was very helpful. Highly recommend! The breakfast included was also great!
