There are no problems with accommodation in Sri Lanka. Most of the local hotels are located right on the coast. All of them are imbued with the atmosphere of local culture, although each hotel has its own unique style. In Sri Lanka, the connection between the "stardom" of the hotel and the level of service in it is especially visible. In the "five" - ​​it is always at its best, but in budget 3-star hotels you can run into excessive slowness and inattention of the staff.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What are the types of accommodation and what do they stand for?

Accommodation types are as follows: Single - a single room, or accommodation for one person in a double room. Double - a double room that offers one double bed. Twin - a double room, but with two single beds. Triple - a triple room in which there are either three single beds or one double one combined with one single. Unlike the DBL + EXB accommodation, there's a stationary third sleeping accommodation Duplex is a room with two floors. De luxe is a room with luxurious furnishings and interior. Suite - a room with two high comfort rooms. Junior Suite - a semi-luxe with improved layout. Senior Suite - a suite that includes a bedroom and a living room. Executive Suite - a room with two bedrooms.

Do I need to leave a deposit if the room has already been paid for?

The deposit in the hotels in Sri Lanka is rarely charged. This is the prerogative of the apartments, where, upon check-in, the amount is frozen on the guest's bank card in case of compensation for damaged property or if 100% payment has not been made for the room.

How to save on hotel accommodation?

Room rates vary by season, but often some hotels in Sri Lanka offer booking discounts in May 2024. To get acquainted with special offers, use the search on our website, hotels offering a discount will have a special mark in the results.

Why is your room rate lower than on the official website of the hotel?

The search takes into account promotional and discount offers and displays the final amount, while the official sites offer the base price. Therefore, in search and booking systems, the price may be lower than on the official website of the hotel.

Late check out and early check in

This is possible if the hotel is not 100% full. Conditions should be checked with the hotel itself. This service is often paid.

Non-refundable tariff

A non-refundable rate is a rate in which a room is booked at the lowest price, but a prepayment is required, which is not refundable in case of cancellation.

Why are 5 star hotels different in different countries?

The hotel standard, issued in 1989, regulates the procedure for assigning stars to hotels. In those years, at the session of the World Tourism Organization, documents were adopted containing items that today are no longer "luxury" features. That is why a five-star hotel can sometimes match the quality of service to hotels with fewer stars. Also the star status in Sri Lanka is assigned by the Ministry of Tourism, based on national standards.

What is the difference between a luxe and a suite?

The main differences between these two types of rooms are the size of the room, decoration and layout. When choosing accommodation options on our website, you can find the photos and detailed descriptions of all room categories.

What is included in the accommodation cost?

The accommodation price includes all services listed on the booking website. You need to click on the name of the room to view their list. In many hotels breakfast, basic taxes, additional tourist taxes are included in the price. All this can be seen by clicking on the "Terms" button, and this information is also duplicated in the booking confirmation, which is sent to your e-mail after placing an order.

Is it possible to choose a floor?

No, the booking systems do not have an option to select the floor in the hotel. The floor can be indicated in the wishes or notes to the request or by contacting the hotel directly and specifying the possibility of obtaining a room on the desired floor. If you are traveling out of season, when the demand for rooms is moderate, hotels meet the wishes of customers.

Can I book several rooms using my name?

Only one room can be booked per name. If you need to book several rooms, then in this case you will need to indicate in the application the full names of those people who will live there.

Booking cancellation policy

In most cases, you can cancel your booking for free up to 24 hours before check-in time. In addition, there are special offers that allow you to cancel your booking one hour before the check-in time. Cancellation charges may apply if rooms are booked at a deep discount. Sometimes you can meet completely non-refundable rates. During the high season in Sri Lanka, rooms are being sold out faster and hotels typically tighten up booking conditions to reduce cancellations. For this reason, we advise you to read the cancellation policy carefully before proceeding with your reservation during the high season. All the information you need is in the "Cancellation Policy" section.

Documents upon check-in

Arriving at the hotel, the guest must show the administrator a passport, a document confirming the booking and a bank card.

How long does the hotel wait for the guest after checkout time?

It all depends on the hotel you have chosen. Each hotel has its own conditions of check-in, therefore, before making a payment, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with them in detail. Most hotels will wait for you until 00:00 on the day of arrival, if you have not indicated the exact time of arrival when booking.

Is the price per room or per person on your website?

The accommodation cost is indicated for the room as a whole, taking into account the number of people that was indicated during the search. For example, if during the search 3 people were indicated, then its results will display the cost of the whole triple room, if 1 person was indicated, then in the results you will see the price of a single room. Please note that search results do not include additional services (SPA treatments, extra bed, pet, etc.). To order any additional service, it is better to personally contact the hotel and clarify its availability and cost.
