We most liked that the owner is so passionate about his resort. He loved to show us around in his beautifull garden and everything in the resort is thought of and well functioning. The sister of the owner is an excellent cook and she makes a great Sri Lankan breakfast. Each day a bit different but always delicious and plentifull. Same holds for the optional dinner.
Owner also has good deals and friendly and knowledgeable friends for excursions to the temples and Sigiriya and safari. We left to see other places but actually we didn't want to leave this little paradise.

Ruins is one of the best experiences I have ever had. The staff is very nice. The food, the rooms are amazing. I invite all local and foreign people to come here and have fun.

I am thankful to all the employees including the management for helping to make my holiday beautiful.

The site seeing of historical places were the best.
The site seeing of historical places were the best. Most of the time we ate at the hotel and visited some locals and shared a meal with them. We hired a vehicle during the tour, This gave us the flexibility to get around. Net time I'll try to get there in the cooler months, mid December.

Lot of ancient locations and relics.
Lot of ancient locations and relics. Can gain much information about historical Polonnaruwa era of Sri Lanka. Spread is in close vicinity and can cover all areas even without a travel guide. My favourite places were Parakrama Samudraya, museum, King Parakramabahu's castle and office, Gal Viharaya, Thiwanka Pilima geya, Vatadage, Hetadage and Sathmahal Prasadaya.
There are places to eat in Polonnaruwa new town (Very close by). We dined at NS Tomatoes where the service was good.

It's worth making the effort to see the far northern and far southern area too.... and don't forget to check out the back roads in the quadrangle group. The site is full of tourists, but almost nobody at the above mentioned places.

Polonnaruwa has impressive archeological and historic areas which are in good conditions despite of the years. The Minneriya National Park, the Dambulla cave temple and the Sigiriya Rock are also near and it makes Polonnaruwa a perfect base to visit all of them. We would strongly recommend to others.

We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale.
We stayed about 14km outside polonnaruwa on lake giritale. We got a tuk tuk into town (1500 rupees) and hired bikes for the day (1000 rupees each). We found a cycle route online and followed that, which took us to all the main sites. It was hot but we had a great time. Stop for a drink at the EKO hotel on the lake- a great spot!
I stayed at the resort for one night. It was an enjoyable experience. The staff was pleasant, and the service was excellent. The resort was nicely decorated. Hotel facilities were convenient. A secure environment to stay and dine. The food was excellent. The resort is close to Galviharaya, Parakrama Samudraya, Polonnaruwa National Museum, and the Wax Museum therefore overall an excellent location to stay.
Fantastic location in terms of close to Polonnaruwa archeological site - and actual hotel is next to lake - masses of bird life, and fishermen launch boats from adjacent “beach”. Staff super friendly and helpful. Nice pool with plenty of sun-loungers - in shade if required. Pleasant restaurant area - gigantic lobster-like prawn very tasty. Really good Sri Lankan breakfast - delicious. excellent value.
Our stay here was lovely - what a beautiful location! The staff were incredible and so friendly, Sampath was so amazing as were all the other staff whose names we didn't write down! The rooms are lovely, as is the pool and outside areas. We rented bikes from the hotel and one of us had a really lovely massage. The buffet dinner is also great, with a fab selection!
The hotel is beautiful. Very clean. Lovely helpful happy staff. Big swimming pool. Lovely restaurant with good food. Large portions. Fish from the lake. The hotel is surrounded by a beautiful lake. Wildlife everywhere. Elephants. Birds. Iguana. Mongoose. So much more. Large comfortable rooms. What more could you ask for. Will definitely recommend this hotel.
Small and well run hotel, very friendly team and amazing location/view of the lake!
Food really tasty (and an excellent Sri Lankan curry!) We ended up staying an extra night over Christmas and even had a visit from Father Christmas (complete with sunglasses!) and received a delicious Christmas cake! Thanks again for looking after us so well.
Convenient location near the clock tower in Polonnaruwa and the ancient area. The owner is very nice and helpful. I rent a bike from them. It's reasonably priced. The hotel is surrounded by rice fields. I saw a nice view from room windows and having breakfast in such an environment was particularly nice. The hotel looks new and very clean.
Hats off to Hotel Siyathma staff who made my stay more pleasant. Service was amazing!! Also room was perfectly arranged and cleaned up. I must say that bed was very comfortable too. Love the delicious breakfast and the morning view.
Thank you very much for the great services. Looking forward to staying at your place again. :)
Room and bathroom very clean and spacious. AC good. Our host was very welcoming and arranging. We booked 2 bicycles to visit the Polonnaruwa Archaeological Site, which is located nearby. We had a delicious homemade dinner, and the breakfast was good as well.
A hotel in a very lovely environment.Large rooms with beautiful forest view.. We Can see many animals and birds from the room.Very friendly staff and the food was delicious... Also the hotel is closer to polonnaruwa ancient city.
The place has an excellent location and magnificent garden, one can relax peacefully around the nature... Quiet, tranquil and safe... Breakfast was Sri Lankan style and quite fulfilling... I would totally return to this place...
Fantastic experience at Giritale Hotel. Staff, especially Mr. Thushan, made my family and I feel so welcome. It's not easy traveling with an infant, but at Giritale Hotel we felt like family!
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting downtown.
Everyone is extremely nice ! The pool is great, the beds are very comfy and rooms are perfectly clean. You can rent scooter from the hotel and the owner will help you with every need.
We loved the stay at the hotel. The owner and staff were amazing. Their cooking was even more amazing. Service was 10/10. The facilities were also extremely clean.
Air conditioned rooms with a very attractive location. Very friendly service and very delicious food. I think this is the best place to stay when visiting Sri Lanka.
