Ariya Tissa

Exceptional staff, very friendly and helpful, and excellent food.

Sehr modern gemacht, schickes Bad. Alles in sehr gutem Zustand. Lage für uns als Zwischenübernachtung zur Safari völlig ausreichend. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.

Our three-day stay at Ariya Tissa was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt truly world-class, marked by hospitality that came straight from the heart. The room was spacious, beautifully appointed, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. Every meal was lip-smacking and memorable, reflecting great care, quality, and attention to detail. A very special mention to Kanchana and Indika, who were the perfect hosts. They went above and beyond in every possible way, making us feel genuinely at home and ensuring our stay was seamless and warm. Ariya Tissa sets a benchmark for gracious hospitality, and we leave with wonderful memories and gratitude.

Indika the manager, his wife and his team were wonderful. The rooms are fabulous with the best shower we have had since arriving in Sri Lanka (the 6th place we have stayed). The attention to detail, the cleanliness and service were excellent! The food was fantastic with every effort to go that little bit extra to make a difference.. Even the salads are made with care and difference. We had problems with our jeep the day we left and Indika did everything possible to dind a solution. We can highly recommend this establishment without hesitation. Thank you Indika and your team for everything! 🙏

Wir wurden direkt bei Ankunft herzlichst empfangen, da wir etwas früher als Check-in da waren bekamen wir noch einen selbstgemachten Eistee aufs Haus. Die Zimmer sind sehr komfortabel und modern. Die Dusche hatte einen sehr guten Wasserdruck. Die Safari die uns über das Hotel vermittelt wurde war wunderbar, unser Fahrer Nishanka hat sich sehr gut ausgekannt und hat sich den tieren gegenüber sehr respektvoll verhalten. Der Besitzer des Hotels kocht außerdem für seine Gäster und sein Essen kann man wirklich nur empfehlen. Er macht das ganze mit so einer Leidenschaft und Freude und hat uns immer wieder etwas zum Probieren gebracht. Besonders empfehlen können wir das Grilled chicken und die Garlic butter prawns. Wir würden definitiv wieder kommen!!!

Friendly and attentive staff.

Would be good to have some hooks to hang clothes

The hosts were really nice and helpful, the food was great and on top of that the safari we booked with them was totally worth it! We even saw the leopard!

Wonderful staff, just two rooms at present, pretty garden with kingfishers and other lovely birds. Stylish decor (though no wardrobe or drawers). Great bathroom. Manager arranged a fabulous private safari and packed us breakfast and lunch. Four leopard spottings! The manager spent three years as a cook at the Sri Lankan embassy in Australia. The dinner he cooked us after our safari was the best we had all holiday. We wished we’d eaten there both nights.

Nothing

It was probably the second best room we have been in Sri Lanka. Room is tidy and clean, hot water available for the shower, wide spaces, nicely decorated. The staff is nice, especially the man who welcomed us at night, he speaks english and has a really welcoming attitude.

Everything was good. The only thing we could suggest is to put curtains to the big room windows since some light gets in from outside lightning.
