The River Edge

3.9(1,072 reviews)

About

The River Edge, a local business on Sri Lanka, is a hotel at 157 Kaduwela Rd, Kaduwela 10640, Sri Lanka. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward hotel in Kaduwela rather than a beach resort, with the address on Kaduwela Rd as the point to give a driver.

Guests rate The River Edge 3.9 out of 5, a figure drawn from 1069 reviews, which places it among the more reviewed hotels in the area. That volume of feedback gives a clear picture of what to expect before booking. Colombo, the island's commercial capital, lies within reach of Kaduwela, so the hotel suits travellers who want to base themselves near the city rather than on the coast.

A gallery of five images offers a look at the property before arrival. The hotel's website, http://theriveredgehotel.lk/, carries further details about the property. Kaduwela itself sits just outside Colombo, on the road towards Kandy.

Sri Lanka has a tropical climate, and the southwest coast is driest roughly December-March while the east coast is best roughly May-September, so the timing of a trip shapes which side of the island suits. Food on the island is spice-driven, built around rice and curry, fresh seafood and tropical fruit, and meals tend to be hearty and locally rooted. International flights serve the island, and getting around is done by road and rail. Sinhala and Tamil are the main languages, with English widely used, which makes navigating the island simpler for many travellers. Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay are among the island's well-known stops, so The River Edge fits naturally into a wider Sri Lanka itinerary.
