+ This is a handsome, upmarket hotel on the edge of Kataragama, with all rooms overlooking the lovely pool area and the lake beyond. The bedrooms are large with balconies and spacious well equipped bathrooms. The gardens are well tended, and home to langurs and macaques. It's a ten minute walk into Kataragama to the sacred temple complex with its fascinating mix of Buddhist, Hindu and Muslim worship areas. We timed our visit for the Esala Perahera festival (15 days leading up to the full moon at the end of July/early August) and the town was thronging with pilgrims, with the ceremonial elephants being bathed in the river before the evening procession. We also enjoyed a great visit with Janaka Safari to Yala National Park, the northern (quieter) entrance is just a few minutes from Kataragama. Food choices are a bit limited in Kataragama, but the Grand Tamarind's restaurant is a good choice. − Nothing

Nice stay! + The location is close to kiriwehera and kataragama devalaya. They arranged a tuk tuk for us to visit those places. The room was large and clean with all the facilities. We got dinner from the menu and it was delicious. The breakfast buffet was splendid. The staff was friendly. Overall It was a nice stay. − Monkeys were running on the roof so we were awakened by the sound of it.

People centric customer focused hospitality marvel. + The people and the location. People team was l managed by Ms.Dhammika whose inspirational people management was evident in the standards shown in every department. Property was very clean and the restaurant staff were very polite and helpful. − Breakfast was excellent with a reasonable choice but the evening meal was not anywhere near the desired standards. I was told the kitchen was handled by trainees on the day we stayed. However it’s only a minor compared to the host of other services they offered to exceed our expectations.

Exceptional hospitality and an unforgettable stay! ❤️ + We had an amazing stay at Grand Tamarind Lake in Kataragama and were extremely happy with the entire experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From the moment we arrived, we felt very warmly welcomed. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, attentive, and professional. They truly made us feel like valued guests. And the welcome drink… WOW! 🤩🤤 It was absolutely delicious and honestly one of the best welcome drinks we have ever had at a hotel. We loved it so much that we even had to ask what it was called! One thing that really impressed us was the level of care and attention from the staff. They even called us to check whether we were coming down for the breakfast buffet. We have stayed at many hotels, but we have never experienced this kind of personal service before. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really showed how much they care about their guests. The hotel is located in beautiful and peaceful surroundings by the lake, creating su…
