I thought it was a different place to go for Safari. But, almost all vehicles come from Tissa for Safari pickup so it doesn't really matter if you book a room in Tissa or Katharagama for the Safari.KrisIndia - 10Scored 10

Could not see Perahara, we could not stay after 11.30pm.
Could not see Perahara, we could not stay after 11.30pm. If our Hotel room was close Temple we would have come in time of Perahera. Could not enjoyed the journey, very disappointing since the Room was 2Km away from Kataragama Town and temple , no access to outside choice food , had to starve until we reached KataragamaTown. Food and items were sold at uncontrollerable price. For example-Perera and Sons - selling prices below Fish rolls- 150 Fried Rice - 750/- quantity very less than side plate and a small drum stick piece chicken with least flesh. Nestea - Rs 120/= Lunch - Rs 520/= very very small quantity. All bills are available with me as proof if necessary. Surprisingly to know a very reputed food caterers such as PERERA And Sons exploiting selling least quantity food at exorbitant prices compared to Colombo prices to Temple Pilgrims visitors, striving to exist due to economic crisis with no though and concerned to the Poor and needy. At a Pilgrimage area, such as Kataragama, the business rich, could have treated the mo have visitors in a compromise way, selling at reasonably low price or served as Dansal. Their were visitor sharing an incompletely served fried rice plate some were begging at the entrance. This is the way GOD FEARING PEOPLE behave in business concerns at Festival period . GOVMT need to do something valuable to address the needs of the Pilgrim visitors comming from all ends of the country Sri Lanka. Could not fulfill the needs we went to Kataragama due exorbitant accommodation and food price.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10
Kataragama temple in Kataragama, Sri Lanka, is a temple...
Kataragama temple in Kataragama, Sri Lanka, is a temple complex dedicated to Buddhist guardian deity God Kataragama and Hindu War God Murugan. It is one of the few religious sites in Sri Lanka that is venerated by the Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims and the Vedda people. Kataragama deviyo is a deification of the legendary king Mahasena, who is born as a Bodhisattva. According to legendary history, Ruhunu Kataragama Maha Devalaya was built by King Dutugemunu around 160 years B.C. in fulfilment of a vow to defeat King Elara in battle. It was endowed with a large extent of land by King Dutugemunu for its maintenance and subsequent monarchs did likewise. Kataragama is a multi-religious sacred town. Despite the differences of caste and creed, many Sri Lankans show great reverence to God Kataragama. They honour him as a very powerful deity and beg divine help to overcome their personal problems or for success in business enterprises, etc., with the fervent hope that their requests will be granted. They believe that God Kataragama exists and is vested with extraordinary power to assist those who appeal to him with faith and devotion in times of distress or calamity.KaviB77Sri Lanka

- From £13.64 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 143 reviewsStaff was so friendly as well as welcoming. Hotel is located in very close proximity to Pooja Nagaraya with very spacious and clean rooms with free private parking. We liked everything about Senora. Additionally, when we requested to assist us in a Yala Safari, the Staff gave us contact details of a great safari guide as well. All in all, I would highly recommend Senora and would stay here again if I visit Kataragama.
ChathurangaSri Lanka - From £15.89 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very goodRated very good· 455 reviewsA great place in katargama and definitely one of the most unique places I've stayed in Sri Lanka. The whole decor of the hostel including the rooms was really nice. There was art everywhere and few pet animals. They even offer cycle to take to the main city as it's 3 km away. The room was quite big and comfortable. Fernando gave great recommendations of things to do in katargama.
ArpitIndia - From £23.27 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 601 reviewsWe liked how the safari was organised, our guide Prosad was great, we saw leopards and a lot of elephants! The whole day was a wonderful experience. The location is quiet, it's about 20 minutes to the city, super close to safari, but there are few options to eat, so you can order food in the hotel, ask for "not spicy" if you don't like spicy.
