Traveling to Sri Lanka? Find Trincomalee District hotels

We were staying in this hotel for 5 nights at the end of trip around Sri Lanka. We decided that we rather choose 5 stars hotel in Trincomalee instead of going for the same price on Maldives in hotel 3 stars. Everything was excellent. Rooms are big, clean, staff is cleaning the room 3 times in day. Food was delicious and very nice prepared. Especially breakfast - amazing. Beach is clean, nobody is there all around, so you can really enjoy every single minute. Staff is very friendly and they are gorgeous. Only internet wifi is a little bad covered in the room. It is working in the restaurant and bar and reception.

Nice hotel located at the beach of Trincomalee with a nice pool and an aisle, which connects the hotel directly to the beach. The room was spacious and well-equipped (TV, fridge, ceiling fan, water boiler with coffee and tea, AC). At the breakfast you can coose from a good variety of western and sri-lankan stlye food, also eggs and omeletes are freshly prepared. The hotel is close to some nice restaurants on the beach and great activities can be booked either trough the hotel or tour agents on the beach (cheaper). I would really recommend a snorkeling tour at the Pigeon Island! nice corral reef with myn fishes, riff sharks and turtles. The only down-side was that the Wi-Fi did not work in our room!

Although Trinco is a bit eh and it rained a lot of our stay, this hotel really made up for it. The hotel was kind enough to upgrade us to the Junior Suite for a cheap rate - if they offer it to you you have to take it! The junior suite is AMAZING. We had a large, modern, luxury room with a private jacuzzi bathtub. The room was really nice and spacious, bed was comfortable and facilities were clean and modern. The room also is a 'tech' room with touch pad switches, controls and a spinning tv! The hotel facilities are also nice, with a big pool, nice grounds and river close by which you can take a kayak out on and enjoy. They provided free drivers quarters and accomodation, with free food. The driver said this was the best food and accommodation of our trip, which was awesome. The location of the hotel is nice, quiet. A bit far from the main town, but if you have a driver its fine. It is also close to a few good restaurants and food outlets if you have to walk. Had an amazing stay.

This is a very nice hotel right next to the beach. All amenities to have a comfortable stay is available. Very good view from 01st and 2nd rooms. Best rooms are located at the second floor but know that there is no elevator. Beds are comfy. Good Quality Linen. Good Housekeeping. Very friendly and helpful staff at all areas. Child friendly facilities. Excellent service at all areas. Delicious food, specially seafood at reasonable prices. Nice beach. Very close to the city and major attractions of Trincomalee. Secured parking within the hotel premises. Large ground, well maintained green and a cricket pitch. Swimming pool is nicely located in shades. Beautiful landscaping. Greenery everywhere. Only downside is that rooms are bit smaller but not to the extend of creating any discomfort.

We treated ourselves to 3 nights with an upgrade to poolside at the park which was well worth it. The only downside is that the menu was a little limited for european tastes. The young staff are keen to learn English so please be patient. The tuk tuk transfer to the sister hotel on the beach is an added bonus. The owner very kindly took us back to the park in his car rather than wait 5 minutes for a tuk tuk. The young lady on reception was very attentive inviting us to share a festive breakfast on a hindu celebration day. All in all we would definately revisit this establishment, we have stayed in over 10 hotels/homestays in the past month throughout Sri Lanka this was the best to date. Thankyou for such an enjoyable stay.

We weren’t going to write a review however we just received an email and thought we should share. The hotel itself was fantastic and very relaxing. It had great facilities and some great stuff (minus the manager). We had an enjoyable time however 3 days after check out we received an email from the manager stating the cashier had failed to add two beers to our final bill and if we are unable to pay the $10 ledger he would be forced to recover the cost from the cashier. We found this to be extremely poor form considering the amount of money we spent, tips given and the way the email was constructed. We are travelers and can roll with the punches but we found this to be of poor taste. Apart from this a great experience! P.s $18 for ice cream is a bit rich!!!!

Hotel has been built for about a year. It’s new, clean, spacious, has air conditioning, fan, hot shower and is located just 2 minutes walk from the beach. There are many restaurants within walking distance. Try Red Lobster Restaurant which is 10 minutes walk away. (Value for money). The hotel can prepare local or continental breakfast (toast with butter and jam and eggs) which is tasty. Staff are pleasant. I asked for a kettle and tea bags which they gladly provided. Nice garden and there’s place for parking. I find the lights in the room are not too bright and could do better with lower the watts. Next phase for hotel is to build a swimming pool, restaurant and more rooms. I would recommend Luna Beach Hotel.

I stayed here with a friend for four days in January 2019. We had the best time - mostly as a result of the great owner who treated us like royalty for our entire stay. He took us to local temples, beaches, restaurants - did not ask for or expect any payment - and ensured we had the best local food (including checking what we'd had before so that we could try something new). We loved the owner and his family. A great place to stay for Upuveli and Nilaveli. I'd love to come back!

Not a 5 star hotel by any means,but if you are looking for a basic,clean and simple place to chill out for a few days, this is the place. I had one of the cottages which was quite roomy with a double and single bed with mosquito nets. No hot water,but who needs it ? Good meals in pleasant dining area and reasonably priced. No credit card facilities,so remember to take cash.

Rooms ware big and cleaned, staff was very humble and helpful, swimming pool maintained in good condition, private beach ware top notch, we ordered seafood platter that was so yummy value for money, all and all very good experience, Improvements; can put some slides and swings along with lots of trees in front of rooms area as it is hot in day time will be plus for kids, beach benches need some repairs, and tv in room for kids will be nice

We had a great stay, super nice owner family!!! + Close to the beach + nice owner family, makes you feel very welcome as guest, service is priority - they took care of everything for us for the standard street prices + good cookery skills, best experience in Trinco + spacious room, free water, very clean + very calm and guest friendly watch dog - outdoor area looks unfinished, currently running construction (top floor) with great potential to have lookout to the sea, very basic to sit in front of the room -> not for leisure, recommend to put nicer furniture, hammock or such - many flys outdoors at breakfast times - many crows (but they are everywhere) o it’s a little bit away from the touristy beach areas, but if you like that it’s the spot for you

Love this place. Nikesh the staff member here is absolutely amazing, always smiling, nothing is trouble for him to do and he work ethic and customer service is incredible, he is always doing something. The first thing I noticed as I opened the door to my room was how spotless clean it was. The location is great, just a short walk to the beach. There is no restaurant on site yet but I think it's the owners or managers sister has a restaurant round the corner. The wifi is good, it just depends how many people are on it. Nice area outsid the room to sit,read, work on my computer. They don' t hassle you for tours etc and arranging a tuk tuk to trincomalee station at 6am was easy and the cheapest quote I had as well. Also the manager took me on the back of his bike to get a beer which was super kind. If I were to really pick a fault the bathroom is a little small and dated but it had no reflection on how great the place was. We tipped Nikesh on leaving because he really is a great guy and worker, it would be nice if more people did the same.

We loved our stay at Bella. They have cabanas on the beach, so you can sit out on the shore and enjoy the sand and waves without baking in the heat. The beach is quiet and clean. The restaurant is on the beach, in the shade and the food is well priced and tasty. The staff is lovely and leaves you to do your own thing, which is really nice. They were there when we needed them but not in our face, never trying to sell us on their trips, etc. The family is very sweet and little Leo is the cutest! They have paddle boards for rent at 400 Rs, which is great. We stayed in the rooms (rather than the huts). The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bathroom worked great. And, it was only a few seconds walk to the beach! All around great stay! The only complaint was their snorkling trip to Pigeon Island, which we would not recommend. The guide abandoned us in the rough waters (and there are sharks out there!) and the equipment was awful. Go down the beach ten minutes to Niaveli Dive center and pay a little more to take a much better trip. We really loved snorkeling at Pigeon Island, we went twice...and from what we heard, it was much better, as in one could see more diversity of marine life, on the snorkeling tours vs the scuba tours. Both times we went, we saw sharks, sea turtles, barracuda, sea urchins, and tons of colorful fish. Great time!

We have booked a standard room which was not available at the moment we arrived ( it was fully booked ), however the staff was very friendly and didn´t put us to the lowest budget room ( usually offered to taxi drivers ) but offered us to stay at their top level room, for the same price, with sea view, TV, A/C and a big bathroom. Thanks to this the stay was lovely. Next to us stayed a couple, which had the same problem 2 days before us, however worse experience with the staff performance. Food was very nice.
