Terrace Cinnamon View is an exceptional place with incredible views over the hill country from every room and balcony. Even at night we would leave the curtains open so that in the morning we could see the gentle, rolling landscape from our bed - a luxury! The place is perfectly clean and decorated with taste and has a pretty pool. Rumesh and his team are lovely people - friendly, efficient and attentive to your every need. The meals taken on the large terrasse overlooking the mountain are delicious. Peaceful and quiet, this is the perfect place to unwind and contemplate nature.

I had a wonderful experience at Grand Silverray. The property is beautifully maintained, clean, and very comfortable. The rooms are spacious and well-designed, offering everything needed for a relaxing stay. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with a smile, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere is peaceful, and the overall service is truly impressive. I highly recommend Grand Silverray to anyone looking for a pleasant, comfortable, and memorable stay. Definitely looking forward to visiting again!

The Tara Waterfall has a nice view to the tea fields and up to the Waterfall, really stunning in the middle of nowhere. If you want silence and avoid from too much hectic and tourism (like in Ella) this is the right spot! Their service was very kind, too :-)

The people running this retreat were so lovely and so helpful. The pool is exceptional. The pools in many, places we stayed we diisappointing as they were smaller than they liked in the photo. This pool was the reverse, it's large and gorgeous, you can actually swim lengths

Location in beautiful nature! Good food! Nice gardening!

Very spacious and modern villa with a keen eye on cleanliness. The host and the manager were the most helpful when we had some problems and very welcoming.

I arrived at the Diora Hotel by chance and found it to be a very good place to stay in Ratnapura. The hotel is new, clean, and well maintained, with a simple, tasteful interior and a calm atmosphere. It meets a solid Western standard at a fair price. The location is central, yet on a quiet side street. It felt safe and undisturbed, both day and night. The hotel suits travelers, gemstone buyers, business guests, and anyone who values cleanliness, comfort, and a well-run, straightforward setup. A small but fitting detail is that the rooms are named after locally found gemstones – a nice touch for Ratnapura. I came to the city spontaneously to visit gemstone mines and only had half a day. I wanted to avoid the usual tourist tuk-tuk routine with staged mines and a jewelry stop at the end, and I mentioned this to the manager on arrival. What followed was unexpectedly personal. The hotel manager not only arranged a tuk-tuk at a local price, but also contacted a working mine directly and accompanied me there himself, helping with translation and explanations. With his background as a former gemstone cutter, this added real depth. I was able to visit an active artisanal mine with three shafts, about 20 meters deep – practical, local, and not set up for visitors. Even though I have visited mines in other countries, I learned a great deal here about mining. The miners were open and welcoming, allowed me to move freely, and were happy for me to photograph and film. I’m sincerely grateful to them, and especially to the hotel manager, for the time he took to make this possible on short notice – simply out of kindness. I was also invited to visit his relatives nearby and was able to take photos from their rooftop overlooking the mine and the surrounding rice fields. Early the next morning, I visited one of Ratnapura’s three gemstone markets, the one focused on rough stones. I was quickly approached by traders showing me everything from sapphires to alexandrites.

The balcony was really nice and the WiFi was really fast too.
