Traveller's Home Hotel

very nice hotel in tissamaharama. where u get a pool and nice rooms. best for the price.

La familia que lo lleva es muy amable

Nada

cleanest pool. hours of enjoying. room also large can fit more people if they can put a extra bed. a solid stay

room looked good for the price. cleaned & smelled good. wifi was much good than most of others. finally at yala safari very reasonable & neat.

Sento haver de posar un comentari negatiu, però l'habitació estava bruta, infestada de mosquits, els llits incomodes, l'aixeta de la dutxa trencada..... els voltants devien ser molt bonics fa anys. A la piscina no et veus ni els peus.

quick drive from the main road . clean and peaceful place..Good size room and all what you need is there. pool was an advantage.

Not Cleaining: Washroom smells AC not working properly Booking confirmation with breakfast but no breakfast Pool not clean

Nothing very bad property poor service

Nothing very poor place

Niente

La struttura sembra abbandonata, camere essenziali con arredamento di recupero, completa mancanza di manutenzione ovunque, piscina impraticabile ed estremamente sporca, reception inesistente.

Eenvoudige bungalow maar heerlijke bedden met airco en zwembadje met uitzicht over de rijstvelden. Goede uitvalsbasis voor Yala NP.

La ubicacion para hacer el safari de yala y la pisicima para poder descansar antes del madrugon.

La mujer que lo regenta es una bellisima persona, muy maja y dispuesya a ayudar y a informar de todo . El marido en cambio me resultp desahradable ,no escuchaba y lo unico que queria era cobrame el safari cuando les dije que lo hariamos con ellos. Le insisti en que me escuchara con alguna duda que tenia pero el solp repetia que primero pagara el safari. La verdad que me he ido desencantada del lugar por la insistencia y las maneras de el.

This is the one of the worst property when i stay

L'accueil était chaleureux tout était parfait une piscine agréable je nourriture extrêmement bonne c'est avec beaucoup d'amour les chambres avec les climatiseurs sont vraiment bien une très bonne literie et surtout beaucoup beaucoup beaucoup d'amour que les gens vous donnent quand on est dans le hôtel des moments zen et de partage je suis heureuse de l'avoir rencontré et je lui ai dit à très bientôt

Dobra lokalizacja,blisko restauracje

Wszystko było w porządku

Piscine très agréable. Bonne literie. Hotel bien placé pour départ safari.

Chambres avec des clim qui ne se règlent pas bien. Petit déjeuner assez basiques.

The room and bathroom were good. The breakfast was decent, and the hotel is a good option if you’re visiting Yala. Good value for the price.

The swimming pool was a bit dirty. The WiFi was poor.

Es war sehr angenehm, die hoteleigener waren sehr freundlich und haben uns gut bewirtet.

Die Unterkunft ist zweckmässig, etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Der Pool war eine tolle Abkühlung nach den anstrengenden Tagen. Das Frühstück war gut.

Die über das Hotel gebuchte Safiri war gut. Wir haben viele Tiere gesehen. Auch den Leoparden. Der Fahrer ist aus unserer Sicht zu schnell und ruppig gefahren, die Verpflegung war ausreichend aber nicht überwältigend. Eine Halbtagestour würde wohl ausreichen.

The swimming pool value it . Nice hotel antique one , friendly staff.

The room is clean, with hot water and air conditioning, and they also offer safari services at Yala Park. The host prepared a hearty breakfast early in the morning, and the driver-guide drove very hard to help us see leopard. You can catch a bus to Matara right from the main road outside the hotel, no need to go to town. The hotel is very close to Tissa Lake, within walking distance. There’s also a restaurant next to the hotel. This is a really great place to stay.

Basic, budget accommodation but comfortable and clean. Pool was refreshing and they arranged a Yala Safari for me which was convenient.

best hosts we have met in Sri Lanka. fast internet and beautiful view and great safari arranged. the pool area was lovely as well. Couldn’t recommend more!

Was very good!!!!

The people were most kind and they got us a great safari trip.

Der Besitzer war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Er hat und bei der Safaribuchung geholfen und bei dem Organisieren eines Taxis nach Ella. Das Zimmer hatte einen schönen Ausblick und sehr großen Außenbereich :)

After we went they said they don't have rooms

very well planned by owner. gave us a nice view room and early morning a nice jeep was arrived to take us to the safari. truly enjoyed the adventure from start to end. tons of different wildlife in Sri Lanka and this is great way to see a lot of it. Milk feeding session was very interesting too. local buffet lunch was very delicious. thank you

Everything. The owner and staff are super nice. The food in the restaurant was delicious. The location is great. A small supermarket in 3 minutes walk, a bigger supermarket (Cargills) in 10 minutes walk. There are a few ATM's in about 5 minutes walk There is a nice lake nearby on walking distance with some trees with a bat colony. They fly out around 6.30 pm, which is nice to watch. The hotel has a very nice swimming pool with view on some rice paddies. The owner booked a full day safari in Yala National Park for us, which was great (we saw 3 leopards and a sloth boar, amongst various other animal and birds). We booked originally 3 nights, but extended 3 more nights. We had a great time.

Nothing

This guesthouse is beautifully situated within rice paddies. It's very peaceful. From here it's a nice stroll to a big lake where you can see a lovely sunset with lots of birds and afterwards thousands of flying foxes passing by. We enjoyed a quick check-in and a nice welcome drink. Our room was spacious, clean and well maintained. There is a small porch in front of the room with chairs to enjoy a relaxed day. Even better is the incredible pool with views of the rice paddies and palm trees. In the elevated restaurant we had a delicious and freshly cooked dinner. The wife of the owner is a really good cook. It perfectly matched our taste (not too spicy for us foreigners, but well seasoned ;-) ).

Don't book a safari tour to Yala National Park at the guesthouse! We've done several safaris in different countries of the world (Namibia, Tanzania, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka) - but this one was the worst. As the owner of the guesthouse always works together with the same driver, one should look for alternatives. Otherwise you will end up with 0.5 l of water for a tour of 7.5 hours and a breakfast for 6 people that is just enough for 3 (and no drinks included). But the most negative aspect was the driver being not interested in the beautiful places and views along the safari: He was just rushing through the national park, seemingly just focussed on finding leopards. Spotting leopards is great, but there are so many other beautiful animals and views worth stopping for: crocodile, bison, elephants, spotted deer, white storch, black storch, peacock, jungle fowl, beeeater, waran, mongoose, kormoran, ibis, hornbill, eagle etc. Moreover, the driver was not available for communication. He just closed all windows of the front cabin, hardly talked to us or listened to our shouts to stop for views and taking photos.

Fijne locatie bij Yala park in de buurt en een klein zwembad om af te koelen.

Wilden de dag van vertrek een hele dure taxi regelen, en bij inchecken was er niemand aanwezig.

Clean rooms, friendly helpful stalf. They organized a sufari

Le personnel est très agréable et prend soin d'écouter nos demandes. Nous avions booker un sarafi a bon prix, le matin même j'étais malade je n'ai donc pas pu y aller. Ils se sont arrangés pour que je puisse le faire le lendemain. Ils nous ont aussi trouvé une voiture pour aller a Mirissa à bon prix. La chambre était bien, le menage également. La piscine est agréable. Bon emplacement pas loin de restaurants.

RAS

j'ai beaucoup aimé la table et chaise en extérieur devant la chambre avec la vue sur les rizières, c'est très agréable. J'ai été amusée par l'accueil et les propositions de circuits safari, j'ai accepté et c'était très qualitatif.

Je n'ai pas testé le bar restaurant, c'était pas simple de comprendre les horaires d'ouverture, le lieu est en hauteur après une volée d'escalier, on ose pas trop monter du coup

La dame de l’hôtel est adorable et ils sont tous très arrangeants et gentils. La nourriture est bonne. Léo le chien est très gentil aussi.

Seul problème avec le safari le guide très sympa mais il ne parlait que très peu anglais ce qui etait difficile pour communiquer

老板非常热心，服务态度很好

La mujer que lleva el hotel es encantadora! La ubicación es perfecte si tiene que venir a recogerte para ir a Yala. Relacion calidad - precio está bien!

Sehr basic, Preis- Leistung top. Für eine Nacht vor der Safari in Yala zu empfehlen.

Ich hatte ein Zimmer im obersten Stock, dort war es trotz Klimaanlage sehr heiß. Zudem waren die Fenster nicht dicht und man hört den Lärm von der Straßen.

price was really good! the property had a parking space for our small suzuki wagon, that was really practical :) staff was friendly 🤙🏽 next to a western restaurant and cafe with local food too.

bathroom was really moldy and the shower faucet and a lot of other things had a lot of rust on it. generally everything felt already old and come off

Genial todo. Nuestra reserva era de habitación con ventilador y nos dieron una con AC, la mujer nos consiguió un tuktuk a súper buen precio para hacer el tramo b35 (donde cruzan elefantes). Sitio tranquilo vistas estupendas y piscina!

thanks to our hosts for making our stay so enjoyable and for the wonderful safari

Es war sauber, neben dem Reisfeld Moskitonetz war essenziel Konnte eine Safari direckt vor ort Buchen, hat supper geklapt. Unser Guide Su war Supper. Es gabe essen und was man sonst noch so braucht Habe dort gegsessen war sehr lecker auch das Frühstück. Es ist ein älters, einfaches Hotel.

Die Moskitos ...

Stunning nature and calm surrounded. Great service by the team., we felt so welcome. Also breakfast and dinner was so tasty, the organized a safari for a good price.

L'emplacement est très bien, et très calme alors qu'on est juste à côté du centre ! Les propriétaires sont vraiment gentils, et le restaurant, que ce soit pour le petit déjeuner ou les repas nous a surpris, par le fait que c'était très bon, et qu'ils comprennent ce que "pas épicé" veut dire. Ils sont largement à la hauteur 😊

Rien.

La piscina està molt bé i la terrassa té bones vistes. El personal molt maco

Feia una mica de calor només amb el ventilador però tot l’altre molt bé.

Pristine pool, friendly and helpful staff, comfortable beds and affordable pricing.

Shower pressure was a bit low on arrival but it was fixed immediately when I mentioned that it had dropped. Because it was mended straight away it didn't affect us at all, probably more of a bonus that the staff were so attentive.

Расположение отличное, рядом два хороших ресторана, алкомаркет и лавочки со снеками. 10 минут пешком до красивого озера Тисса с экскурсиями на лодках. Вокруг красивые рисовые поля. В номере чисто, есть горячая вода, комаров нет. Приветливый персонал, помогли заказать экскурсию на сафари в Ялу и трансфер. Кондиционер работал.

Нет мыла и шампуня в номере. Краны и душ плохие. Кондиционер шумный. Звукоизоляция плохая, шум с улицы. Шкафа нет, номер очень маленький (хотя бронировали Делюкс), только для переночевать, но за такие деньги это логично.

Great property, all good with the rooms, the view outside. Helpful staff and very courteous. The weather was great .

Det var en bekvämt boende och poolen var en stor plus. Ta ett rum med AC då fläkten känns knappt igenom myggnätet.

Inget

The lady was so kind she did everything for you!!

Nothing

Comfortable room, good swimming pool and sun loungers. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location for Yala safari trips . Excellent value.

Pool was fantastic and the staff were super helpful.

Unfortunately, cold showers.

Prijs kwaliteit verhouding is oke

Wij hebben niet geslapen doordat de ventilator meer voor de sier heel traag ronddraait. Daarnaast was er tot 11:30 enorme herrie buiten terwijl iedereen 4 uur later op moest voor de safari. De mensen die de eigenaren lijken zijn alleen maar gefocust op safari's verkopen

Alles in Ordnung. Der Besitzer ist sehr freundlich und spricht deutsch und hat uns eine gute Safari vermittelt!

The best about the place is the owners. ‘Thank you

The beds are comfortable and with good mosquito nets, very essential at that location. The bathroom looks old fashioned but is functional. It has running hot water gun a solar heater. It is located on the main road but quiet. Each room has a porch which offers a relaxing view of a farm opposite. We woke up to the chirping of many birds and the sight of peacocks beside the place. In other words, it is good enough for a night stay after an afternoon safari or before a morning safari at Yala National Park. The lady who takes care of guests' needs prepared excellent vegetable rottis and hoppers for us and the dining area where we had breakfast was relaxing.

The rooms are bare basic. Two, three or four beds are put in the same sized room to categorise it differently. We took the highest capacity room expecting space but the four beds in it left little space to move around!

Good ambiance

Das Personal ist sehr nett. Die Unterkunft bietet eine Safaritour an. Wir haben den Leoparden leider nicht gesehen, aber es hat viel Spaß gemacht

Im Bad richtig es muffig

We stayed only 1 night, so it was OK. Staff was very kind. It's close to restaurants. The price responses quality

Nice people. Worth for money. Nice pool. Highly recommended. Calm environment.

Swimming pool was nice. Also nice restaurants nearby. Owner helped us when our baby got sick, we felt very welcome. Smoothies are really good for breakfast

Don't book safari there. The driver drives very crazy, we had a baby and asked before booking that we wanted a slow safari. It was the opposite - he drives like a maniac. Owners are very much money oriented, we finally got along but definitely are better places around. Rooms are really old, expect a lot of bugs in the rooms, shower rooms, maintenance is very needed.

Lo que más nos gustó fue el conductor que nos gestionó el alojamiento para el safari en Yala.

Después de pasar unos 10 días por el país sentimos que los precios de las excursiones no eran acordes y "algo" de presión.

L'emplacement , la piscine et le petit dej

Les transats en bois tous cassés et la piscine qui vieillit mal . Chambre sombre .

Madame très souriante, serviable, excellente cuisine. La petite piscine entourée de rizières, le lac proche, avec une grande promenade.

Il faut accepter l'aspect succinct des chambres comme dans beaucoup d'endroits au Sri Lanka. Pour nous, ce n'est pas un problème !

Phenomenal experience, they really made our trip special. The room was perfect, they think of everything. Breakfast was amazing. The owner also booked us a fantastic safari which was very special. could adventure the whole yala jungle.

👍

👍

A super friendly and warm welcome, well suited to the needs and preferences of international travelers. Fantastic safari tour at yala national park. very well organized. food & water provided.

Idéal pour faire un Safari à Yala Parc les propriétaires sont très sympathiques. Un grand merci à Kurma la propriétaire de cet hôtel avec son mari.

Rien de particulier.

Well maintained wash rooms. good variety of food options and big pool to enjoy the day. they had a fiber internet which was very fast. Safari can be arranged from the hotel and they do it for very good price.

rooms clean, great kitchen facilities, wifi was in great speed, unlimited and hot water. Good view from balcony. He arranged a great safari at yala which was superb adventure in my life.

Travellers Home is a very clean and conveniently located hotel. The pool was a lovely respite on humid hot afternoons. The owners were very helpful

We should have read other reviews on the place before we told the owner to line up two half day safaris ( to Yala N.P. and Bungala). Not sure how the price compares, but they have a large entry fee for tourists ( not the tour's fault ). We enjoyed the wildlife in both places, but the driver/guide was not very helpful. Gave us binoculars to use on the Bungala tour, but these didn't really work. The guide provided only basic information about the animals yet surely there is heaps of interesting stories if the guide took the time to research them... The information is available on line. One highlight was a massive Indian Python who proceeded to grap a frog, but we were laughing too hard from the guide calling it a "rattlesnake". He also drove very fast and off the formed roads for no real reason.... Stay at Traveller's Home, but shop around a little for a good safe guide.

The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. The owner and his family are exceptionally warm and hospitable, ensuring a pleasant stay.

Host welcomed me. At the entrance with warm welcome. He made me feel comfortable and safe . Amazing staff! Amazing view! Amazing breakfast! Unfortunately we stayed only one night… next time we will stay longer!

Very calm environment, Friendly staff Cozy comfortable rooms. Well maintained wash rooms. Safari can be arranged from the hotel and they do it for very good price.

The natural beauty of the place was breathtaking, with stunning views all around, despite the chilly weather. Water in the pool was cold, but the experience was truly amazing. Service was exceptional, and the food was absolutely delicious.
