Reviews of Canal Side Guest House Polonnaruwa

Location is very good, very close to the town. Rooms are spacious enough and balcony is also provided in one room.

Not cleaned under the beds for years. Very disappointing experience. Washrooms were with bad odor initially thought of cancelling the booking considering this issue. Service is also very poor. They have disconnected the power of Air conditioner at 9.00 a.m. even though our check out time is 10.00 a.m. They have installed a TV screen in the room but it is not working. If you are staying with a family members, my advice is not to stay at this place.

Very comfortable accommodation. Near the historical center. Very nice hostess. Possibility to rent bicycles and scooters. I recommend!

hospitable host clean and tidy properly bikes available very close to bus stop and polonnaruwa ruins' park

they provide only towel and soap, so bring your shampoo

It is very close to the sacred city and the clock tower. It is run by a family living in it and very lovely.

Did not provide water

Great location for visiting the ancient city. Small clean room, easy to find and check in. Great value for money.

Small and basic friendly family-run guesthouse. The hotel is conveniently situated near the museum where you buy entrance tickets for the site as well as near a laundry, the lake and several nice restaurants. Our room was small but it had everything we needed so it was good value for money. It is handy that the owner has a tuktuk - he brought us to the railway station. Our room had a 'garden view' which meant that it overlooked the beautiful green rice paddies. Neat bathroom and good shower.

The bed was not totally underneath the air conditioner which meant that one of us felt cold and the other one, who could not feel the cool air at all, was really hot. I think there is room to place the bed directly underneath the aicon, but there is a lot of furniture, so we did not manage to do so. On the upside: the presence of all that furniture meant that we had plenty of space for our clothes etc :-).

Near the bus stop. Near the archeological sites by bicycle. Quiet. The owner took us to a fabulous Sri Lankan restaurant.

Guest House really close to the centre. You can hire the bicykle. Room with A/C, small balcony. Spacious bed. We had hot water there :)

Guest House is just next to the road, so better do have earplugs. This not the main road so still is ok.

Spacious room, lovely view on the small canal

Mosquitos

The owner is very friendly. He helped me by arranging a transfer to Sigiriya with an amazing safari. A great experience. The rooms are basic, but the location is perfect if you want to visit the ancient city. I also rented a bike at the guest house and enjoyed a delicious home cooked breakfast.

Good localisation- 5 min by bicycle to Polonnaruwa. The room was fine. Good value for this price. I recommend this hostel.

Location was very good. Near to the hospital town.

Bathroom shower hanger has broken
