Where to stay in Sri Lanka?

Where to stay in Sri Lanka?

Sri Lanka may be tiny and just off the coast of India but never for a minute confuse this colourful island of being second best or third rate. It is also not India in miniature, but has a glorious uniqueness, combining sun-drenched beaches with ancient culture, scrub jungles, and some of the best scuba diving in the world.

The hotels in Sri Lanka offer more than just comfy beds and stunning views out of the window. It is the hospitality that shines through from all the hotels Sri Lanka has, no matter where you are on the island, from the cheapest hotels in Sri Lanka to the most luxurious.

The range of hotels in Sri Lanka

Generally, the resort hotels Sri Lanka offers are of an international standard, complete with all the amenities you would expect from top class accommodation. The capital Colombo covers the most range of hotels in Sri Lanka, while inland, the hotels Sri Lanka offers are more affordable though basic.

When looking to book one of the hotels in Sri Lanka consider using BudgetAir for your accommodation needs. Booking one of the hotels Sri Lanka offers through BudgetAir means cutting out all that traipsing around when you are there as you can do it from the comfort of your living room before you embark on your holiday. It makes so much sense.

Discovering Sri Lanka

For a lazy beach holiday, head for Tangalla with its unspoilt landscape and sleepy charm. Nearby, is Mulkirigala which has some cave drawings and there is also Uda Walawe National Park, where you can spot monkeys, deer, and wild pigs.

For a more cultural foray, Kandy is the place to go for an insight into the history of the country and some of the best hotels in Sri Lanka. There are the Royal Botanical Gardens, laid out for past kings, the Temple of the Tooth, said to guard the sacred tooth of Buddha, and the Pinnewala Elephant Orphanage where you can get up close and personal with these amazing pachyderms.

Trincomalee on the east coast has a stunning natural harbour and Swami Rock has a modern temple on top, said to be one of the most important temples in the whole of Sri Lanka. It is besieged by Hindus on Fridays, wanting to worship there.

Flights to Sri Lanka

Like a teardrop dangling off the end of India, Sri Lanka floats in the Indian Ocean, a tropical island like no other. Marco Polo described Sri Lanka as ‘undoubtedly the finest island of its size in the world’. This still holds true with its beautiful beaches and stunning interior landscape.
