Tourist House
About
When in Sri Lanka, Tourist House is the local business that puts guests within walking distance of Polonnaruwa, one of the island's ancient cities. It stands near Filling Station, Maradankadawala-Habarana-Thirukkondaiadimadu Hwy, Polonnaruwa 51000, Sri Lanka, in the island's cultural triangle.
Tourist House is known as a small hotel serving visitors to Polonnaruwa, one of the island's ancient cities. First-time visitors should expect a modest guesthouse-style stay rather than a large resort. A rating of 4.9 out of 5, drawn from 79 reviews, places it among the higher-scoring stays in the area. Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay all lie further afield, so the hotel suits travellers touring the island rather than staying put.
Guests can look through five photographs of the property before deciding to book.
Sri Lanka was known as Ceylon until 1972, gained independence in 1948, and has ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. The island has an extensive railway network, and the hill-country line from Kandy to Ella is popular with visitors. Theravada Buddhism is the main religion, and full-moon Poya days are public holidays. The southwest and west coasts are driest from December to March, while the east coast is best from May to September, which shapes when to travel.
