A great hotel that is good value for money. Is only a short distance from the caves and easily accessible to Sigiriya Rock. Staff were amazing - unbelievably accommodating! We arrived at 11:30pm and they organised drinks and food for us. They are also more than happy to organise cheap and efficient transport to most places. Rooms were large, clean... More

The friendly and helpful staff is Sundaras' strongest point. The interior of the rooms are probably in need of an overhaul (decor is quite dated) in light of the cost. The little patios in front of each room are a big winner and the location is central, walking distance of the Dambulla Rock Temples. We had a great stay here!

I stayed for two nights here with a friend and had a great time. All the staff were lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were large, nicely decorated and clean with good bathrooms too! The owner is Sri Lankan/Australian so knows what guests expect and gave us honest, unbiased advice about tourist attractions and transport. When we... More

I stayed here after visiting the amazing temple mountain of Sigiriya - caught a local bus there from Dambulla bus station. The Sundaras Resort is within five minutes walk of the famous cave temples for which you should allow ninety minutes visiting time. The Sundaras is clean with spacious rooms. Some have terraces with outdoor seating but my room had... More

We stayed at the Sundaras Resort for 2 nights after busy days in Kandy. We completely enjoyed the stay here. The owner Damien, his mum, sister and their team made us feel welcome all the time. We found Sundaras by chance, searching for accommodation after we arrived in Dambulla. We decided to go to Dambulla in the last minute, so... More
