Havana Club Resort

Havana Club Resort

📍 No 07 Alles Garden, Trincomalee
★★★ 7.9 (15 reviews)

"The location was perfect, about a 3-minute walk to the beach. There are shops nearby, so this is the perfect hotel for a relaxing beachside stay. The room was clean, but it would have been better if there were more amenities, such as a hairdryer."

Villa Hotel

Villa Hotel

📍 22 Lower Rd, Trincomalee
★★★ 7.6 (33 reviews)

"Positives - I booked a night in this hotel because it is only a short distance from the local airport and I was catching a small plane to Colombo with Cinnamon Air. The hotel was on the waterfront with great views across the harbour. It had kerbside appeal and looked good on arrival. There was a restaurant in the hotel, so it was easy to get a relatively cheap and tasty evening meal and the staff were friendly and extremely helpful. They booked me a tuk tuk to take me to the airport the following day, they were careful with the food they prepared ensuring it didn't contain any chilli (allergy), and came promptly to replace the kettle when it fused the electricity in my room leaving me without power briefly. Negatives - There didn't appear to be any lifts and there were a lot of steep narrow stairs which would have been difficult with suitcases - luckily I only had a rucksack When I arrived, I saw that there was a small temple opposite, which I initially thought was a nice part of the view. However, I had obviously unknowingly booked during a festival and the extremely loud music and celebrations went on all night! I wasn't warned about this and the hotel had little sound proofing. The staff said that their other guests were ringing them at all hours to complain about the noise and the fact they couldn't get any sleep. I always carry earplugs with me and they blotted out a lot of the noise so l did get some sleep. If you want to stay here, I would check in advance with the staff about any festivals that may fall on your chosen dates. Overall it was very reasonable for the price."

Aa Inn

Aa Inn

📍 J678+25W, Nilaveli Rd, Trincomalee
★★★ 7.8 (5 reviews)

"The price and quality correspond. Cleaning is only on request, and the linen is not changed. There are no shampoos or conditioners, they put a small soap. The staff is polite and friendly. There is a parking lot, air conditioning in the room, weak wi-fi. In general, a simple and budget hotel, worth the money. Of course, you should not expect something extraordinary."

Nilaveli Boutique Hotel Hotels in Trincomalee

Nilaveli Boutique Hotel

"A terrible experience. Our plan was to relax and do PADI diving, so we booked for three nights with a 24-hour cancellation policy. The room was awful; it smelled damp, crows were croaking on the ceiling, and it was very noisy. The window wouldn't even open. The room was actually more expensive than many other options in Upuveli or other more interesting areas. The worst part is that we only stayed one night and canceled the other two because they didn't give us any trouble. They told us they would refund our money, then excused themselves by saying that Booking.com's policies didn't allow it. A complete lie. Then they said they would refund it but that they weren't a big hotel and couldn't afford such excuses. Two weeks later, we're still waiting for a refund of about €80. Day after day, they keep giving us the runaround, saying they've gone to the bank and the transfer should be arriving soon, but we never get an answer. I don't recommend this place so you don't have the same bad experience we did. The room we were assigned was nothing like the ones shown in the pictures on ***********, TripAdvisor, or Google. There's nothing around, and few restaurants. The receptionist was very friendly and the breakfast was very good. The cancellation and refund process was terrible."

Sea Zone Hotel Nilaveli Hotels in Trincomalee

Sea Zone Hotel Nilaveli

"We stayed at this hotel on a family trip and were absolutely delighted! The rooms were clean and well-kept, which is a priority for us, especially when traveling with children. The hotel is located in a great location - very close to the beach, which was a big plus because we love spending time by the sea. We were there off-season and there was only one place to swim, a few steps from the nearest beach entrance to the hotel. The area is quiet and peaceful, perfect for a family vacation. There is a restaurant on site that serves delicious dishes. The cuisine is very good, and the food is fresh and tasty. An additional advantage of the hotel is the staff, who are extremely helpful and friendly. They were always smiling and willing to help. We would especially like to thank the staff for organizing a trip to the national park for us. At first we thought it would be impossible because local travel agencies did not offer such trips. However, the hotel staff did everything to help us and organized a private trip for us with an external operator, even though they offer such trips themselves! Thanks to this, we were able to see beautiful landscapes and spend unforgettable moments in Pigeon Island National Park. We will come back here again!"

Havana Club Resort ★★★
"A great hotel for the price. The staff is very pleasant and friendly. The breakfasts were delicious, especially the pancakes!!! The portions were large, so we were full (though not the buffet). There's a pool, but the water was a bit dirty due to insects. The water was warm, though, and we swam in it occasionally in the evenings. The only downside was that it was a bit noisy during our stay, as it was a holiday."

"There were so many things, but overall, all the staff were very hardworking, kind and good people! First of all, it seems that the reservation for 4 nights that I had made on Trip.com was not made at the time of check-in. There are many staff members, but there are only about two staff members who can communicate in English without any problems, and it was difficult to find them every time lol. I was hurriedly guided to my room, but I couldn't find the air conditioner remote control, and a staff member just brought me a towel (probably the room was hastily provided, so it was not fully prepared?) When I asked for the remote control at that time, they brought it to me relatively quickly. The wi-fi password was handwritten on the phone, but it was faded and I couldn't read it, so I looked for a staff member again and asked lol. I thought there would be hot water, but it was room temperature (it was a little cold at first, but if you try hard to take a shower, it feels like it's getting warmer for some reason, but it was exactly the same temperature lol) and the water pressure was quite weak. I asked the staff, but it seems that the temperature probably can't be changed. I asked them for at least the water pressure, and it improved a little. However, the water pressure was weak again the next night, so I asked them to adjust the water pressure every day for four days before taking a shower. When the staff came to check the water pressure, they stood on the bath mat with their shoes on, and the bath mat turned black because the shoes were wet with water... This happened two days in a row, so we told them that the water pressure had improved and it was okay to check it. It may be a cultural difference, but I guess they don't care about guests' bath mats turning black. The laundry service, free bicycle rental, and currency exchange that were listed on Trip.com (same as ***********) were not available lol The location is nice, right in front of the sea. It's a 10-20 minute walk to the town, but I was so scared of the stray dogs at night (they sleep and relax during the day, but are super active at night...) that I had to use a tuk-tuk every time. The hotel itself is not bad, but the shower was the only thing that bothered me. There were also frequent power outages every day. (It wasn't particularly difficult, but it sometimes took several hours lol) The staff were all really trying to solve the problem and listen to our requests. They were very calm and friendly, and always had a shy smile lol However, their English was quite weak, so it was necessary to be patient and communicate."

Neem Tree House, Trincomalee ★★★★
"The hotel is nice. The room is small, but there's a TV, hairdryer, and kettle. There's no refrigerator, if anyone needs one. No complaints about the hotel. However, the hotel claims they didn't advertise on Trip.com. We paid for a room with breakfast, but they showed my ******* booking as only the room listed. Breakfast was not included. This misunderstanding ruined our entire vacation experience. It turns out we paid Trip.com for breakfast, which the hotel didn't provide, since ******* only listed the room without breakfast. Very disappointing!"

Aa Inn ★★★
"Absolutely terrible! This was by far the worst place we stayed in Sri Lanka, offering incredibly poor value for money. The mattress was worn out, sagged badly, and had no spring support whatsoever. All the facilities were extremely old and dated! The only redeeming quality was the nice garden outside, which is probably what enticed us in the first place based on the pictures."
