Authentic Sri Lankan hotel set in a beautiful location by the lake. Rooms were very spacious and immaculate. Staff were friendly and helpful, asking if you needed anything at various points of our stay. Restaurant food was buffet style. Lots of choice, fresh and delicious. Ideal base for exploring the local area. Would highly recommend.

Very friendly staff across the board. Great location to reach day trips to Sigiriya, Pollonaruwa, Anuradhapura, Dambulla, and safari/hiking, etc. and unwind/relax at the pool/spa. Lakefront is great for reading or for a morning jog. Rooms/facilities are new and well maintained. Staff goes over and beyond to make your stay comfortable.

The property is old, the monkeys and stray dogs is an issue. The food was a huge selection, the desserts looked nice, but only few items are great. The Shisha/ Hookah was too old and the bar staff did not know how to operate the shisha/ hookah for that price. They only placed one coal. There are snakes.

Our experience at Cinnamon Lodge was excellent. The staff in particular was very attentive as they always made sure we were well taken care of. Room facilities were great as well. Breakfast and dinner buffet spreads were amazing with tons of flavour made and our tastebuds happy.

Service, food, and location!
This lodge exceeded my expectations. Big comfy bed with fluffy pillows, best food in Sri Lanka with local sourced buffet. They called to check on me after settling in, provided umbrellas, and surprised me with an artful safari display. Wish I stayed another few days. Pool and lakeside view lovely. The homemade soursop ice cream was heaven in a cone!

What a place!
Hotel is beautiful and staff is so nice. I have been to this place 25+ years ago and the place is still so beautiful. Reminds me of how Sigiriya was back I the days. Villas and blended into the garden and so peaceful. Staff is so warm and welcoming! Definitely coming back!
