Rathna Gems Halt, hotel in Ratnapura

Situated in Ratnapura, Rathna Gems Halt is 42 km from Avissawella Railway Station. This guest house offers free private parking and luggage storage space.

The host and his relatives are very smiley and friendly! He kindly offered us blankets and towels. I think someone can experience gem cutting or related processes with him, but we unfortunately didn’t have the time. Upstairs there is a nice balcony with a big table and a small bookcase that offers a big range of books that someone can choose to read over the evening!

Volunteer Ceylon, hotel in Ratnapura

Volunteer Ceylon features rooms in Ratnapura. The air-conditioned accommodation is 46 km from Avissawella Railway Station, and guests can benefit from on-site private parking and complimentary WiFi.

Room was nice and clean, sadly there was a cockroach in the bathroom. I don’t mind but maybe there is someone who is very sensitive about it. Staff was super friendly and location was good, you still need a scooter or tuktuk to drive into town.

Summer Ridge - Homestay, hotel in Ratnapura

Located in Ratnapura, Summer Ridge - Homestay provides accommodation with seating area. The air-conditioned accommodation is 45 km from Avissawella Railway Station.

The host was very friendly and helpful. He took us to a mine for 8000 Lkr without transportation because we had our own Tuktuk. The host tried to answer all of our questions about mining and he was very patient. The bed was comfortable and in the family room there was a mosquito net over the big bed.

    It is the best homestay I’ve been to in Sri Lanka. The family was great, nice and helpful. The room was big, very clean and they provided everything I need. Wifi was also good. And I had a really good Sri Lankan breakfast. I truly recommend to come here and meet this excellent family!

    Marvellous location at the edge of a forest reserve with lots of biodiversity Quiet location in a largely pedestrian neighbourhood Host family made our stay memorable, this was the loveliest host family in Sri Lanka, our kids were so happy to play with the "big kids". The owner made sure our activities went smoothly, he took us around in his car. The porch area & massive trees in the garden provide enough shade to relax under the blistering heat.
