Unawatuna Nor Lanka Hotel

- Sehr gute Lage im Ort - sehr nettes Personal - super Frühstück - alles ist fussläufig oder kurz mit dem Tuk Tuk zu erreichen

- kein Pool aber wusste ich ja vorher - leider gab es in unserem Zimmer viele Kakerlaken. Sie kamen nachts im Bad vermutlich durch die Feuchtigkeit nach dem Duschen heraus. Ich vermute aus dem Waschbecken Abfluss, denn nachdem ich den immer zu gemacht habe kamen weniger. Aber es waren immer 2-4 große Kakerlaken bei Dunkelheit im Bad. War ziemlich eklig. Tut mir auch leid für das Hotel, denn es war eigentlich echt schön aber mit den den vielen Kakerlaken würde ich nicht noch mal hier hin. - Ich war schon in einigen Läden in Südostasien und ich weiß dass es immer mal Viecher im Zimmer gibt. Aber so viel Kakerlaken hatte ich noch nie … - wenn die das Problem mit den Ungeziefern in Griff bekommen würden, würde ich 9,5 (wegen Pool) geben.

Wspaniałe miejsce, oaza ciszy i spokoju w bardzo eleganckim stylu. Każdy zakątek w hotelu jest dopracowany i cieszy oko. Można tam naprawdę odpocząć. Personel niesamowicie miły, sympatyczny, śniadania przepyszne :)

Desayuno, personal muy agradable, ubicación en lugar tranquilo sin ruidos.

Sehr gepflegte und wunderschöne Anlage. Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Schönes Zimmer. Super Frühstück. Zentral aber ruhig. Eine kleine Oase.

Nichts. Nur einen Wasserkocher für Tee hätten wir uns gewünscht.

This hotel Was great so clean and in a handy location

We stayed mid January 2026 at this hotel! We had a wonderful stay! It’s really a great location, very close distance to the beach! It is a quiet location as well! The staff was very friendly. The room was spacious and wonderful! On top of that, there were places at the hotel were you could just sit and read or play a board game.

It’s a nice hotel, well located, close to everything but in a quiet spot. Personal are very kind and the room was nice.

A bit expensive for what you get.

Удобное расположение , рядом океан и в дали от шумных и оживленных улиц. Подходит для тех кто хочет проводить вечер в тишине.

Struttura a gestione famigliare con staff gentile ed impeccabile, camere pulite e ampi spazi relax esterni. Ottima colazione e posizione strategica per raggiungere la spiaggia e la via centrale di Unawatuna con tutti i principali esercizi commerciali.

Nulla. Dall’accoglienza all’attenzione per il cliente, è stato tutto impeccabile.

Todo. Uno de los mejores alojamientos en los que estuve en Sri Lanka. Bonitas instalaciones, habitación limpia y bien equipada, entorno tranquilo, a 3 minutos a pie de la playa, excelentes opciones de desayuno, servicio de lavandería rápido, eficaz y económico y la atención del personal de 10.

Mycket välskött boende med utmärkt läge. God frukost och strandhanddukar ingick vilket var toppen. Mycket vänlig personal och ägare.

We liked the location of the property which was excellent- set within a lush garden, away from the bustle of the beach road but still within easy reach of the beach, shops and restaurants. The room had everything we needed including a wardrobe, fridge and even 2 blankets. The hotel was very clean, beautifully decorated, with several areas set aside for guests relaxation. The breakfast was good but best of all were the staff who were very friendly, helpful and made our stay memorable. Would definitely stay here again.

The towels in the room which were too rough but we understand this is due to drying naturally.

Friendly and helpful staff, spacious room, close distance to beach and restaurants

Wifi in room wasn’t very good and we ran out of water a couple of times

Very peaceful property with lovely rooms. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Rent, snyggt och fridfullt. Härliga soffgrupper där vi kunde samlas och umgås. Mycket trevlig och tillmötesgående personal. Lugnt men ändå tillräckligt nära stranden. Vacker trädgård

Very nice and clean room. Beautiful garden and a view of palm trees and nature. Excellent breakfast with fantastic fruit plates. Friendly and helpful staff.

Fint hemtrevligt personligt boende med god mat fin omgivning. Återkommer gärna nån annan gång.,

Piękny, cichy hotel. Bardzo duży wygodny pokój z balkonem. Bardzo dobre śniadania. Personel we wszystkim nam pomógł. Bardzo polecamy.

Authentic. The staff were very attentive and friendly. It’s 3 star and I understand why because elements of it could be described as basic but we were very sad to leave and would like it to be 5*

Nothing - it grew on us like an old friend. We had a ground floor room as it was full but I would say the upper floors are better for sitting outside your room and view.

Не припомню чтобы когда-то останавливался в таком теплом по домашнему уютном, удивительном месте. Настоящее открытие! Остановившись в таком отеле по настоящему чувствуешь себя обычным человеком. Кем бы вы не были, приезжая в это место, одев футболку и шорты, сняв обувь окунаешься в мир простой приземленной жизни. Весь персонал отеля рад Вам как родному. Особая благодарность за возможность попить горячего чаю поздно вечером с видом на прекрасный сад, когда идет прохладный тропический дождь (постойте под этим дождем). В отеле есть все необходимое. А главное его персонал. Спасибо за гостеприимство! Пребывание у вас запечатлелось в моем сердце.

Perhehuone oli suuri ja siisti. Ystävällinen henkilökunta. Myös aamupala oli mahtava. Ihana tunnelma, pidimme koko perhe paikasta!

Как отмечали многие, отель очень удачно расположен в тупиковой улице. Вокруг зелень и тихо в целом. Интересный дизайн отеля с открытыми террасами на этажах. Семейный номер - это две смежные комнаты. Туалет и душ в комнате с большой кроватью, во второй комнате были три кровати в виде высоких матрасов, которые можно передвигать, т.к. они на колёсах. У этих двух комнат общий личный балкон с красивым видом. В номере нет чайника и чашек по умолчанию. Хороший номер, но будьте осторожны с едой, могут прийти муравьи. Персонал отзывчивый очень. В том числе следит, чтобы в номере было чисто.

Душ не для отелей. Лейка, которую приделали к стене зачем-то. У туалета нет лейки. Хотя на Шри-Ланке лейка рядом с туалетом - это просто норма. Можно спуститься к завтраку и обнаружить, что свободных мест нет. На террасах на этажах постояльцы курят постоянно и в столовой на завтраке тоже.

Прекрасное расположение: вдалеке от шумной дорого но вместе с тем недалеко до моря. Чистейший отель с прекрасным персоналом. Администратор Имаша и Асанка создавали домашний уют и добрую семейную атмосферу. Наша компания чувствовала себя как дома. Очень клиентоориентированный отель. Всем советую

Не во всех номерах есть гигиенический душ.

Mooie, ruime kamer. Super lief personeel, heerlijk ontbijt. Je loopt zo naar het strand en de restaurantjes.

Very good confort, quite place, well located and excellent breakfast

Temiz bir otel ,kahvaltida size uc secek sunuyorlar birini tercih ediyorsunuz oda olanakları güzel...plaja yakin

Encantador hotel con habitaciones grandes y magnificos desayunos. El personal es encantador ayudándote en todo lo posible

Peaceful,quiet location. Room very clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. Sri Lankan breakfast tasty and beautifully presented.

Everything was good. Access (short cut) to main restaurant street not great but other option is long walk on busy road.

We really loved coming back to Nor Lanka and whilst there have been changes its still a lovely place to stay. The breakfast is amazing, dinner really good and great value for money, the staff are great and its in a convenient spot just off the beach and far enough away from the busy main street to be quiet but close enough to easily reach. Standards are still good. There are a couple of new outside sitting areas since our last visit which are a great addition. Our first room was a family room which was great, on the first floor with a balcony looking out on to a bit of the jungle.

We moved rooms as we stayed under 2 separate bookings. Our second room was on the ground floor and not to our taste. It was spacious and very clean but it was dark, the outside space at the back was very shaded so we tended to sit out at the front in the sun. Due to the climate the room smelt damp. If you book make sure that you ask for a room on the first or second floor which are great,

The hotel was very well located, close to the beach and also close to the center of town. At the same time it was very quiet. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the food was great!

A feeling of a family business, very kind and caring workers. Walking barefoot on the territory makes it feel like visiting friends’ house. Close to the beach and touristic street. Tasty breakfast: fresh juice, toasts with jam, eggs with veggies, fruits

It didn’t smell well in bath room. After cleaning lady it became better, but not for long. We only had a chance to stay there for 2 days, i’m sure, they would fix the problem if we stayed there for longer time

It’s like an oasis , very peaceful and green

I liked everything but maybe courtains could be thicker

Very good experience, the breakfast was good, the staff so kind. Many thanks to you

Lovely place, staff, money well spent. Great value ratio

The breakfast was fantastic, probably the best we had in Sri Lanka hotels. The room was also super clean and the bed had a mosquito net, which was very handy.

The only thing was that we had to pay for the laundry separately when we checked-out, so we had to do that with cash. But this was a minor thing.

Everything was perfect! The Room was superclean and charming. They offer extra services (like towels for the beach, sunlotion, umbrella in case of rain… ) and the staff is superhelpfull and they do everything with a smile. Truly positive vibes and the only pity is that I spent only 2 nights !

Location, facilities, room everything excellent !

This is a really lovely, relaxed hotel. Low key but providing comfortable rooms and a great breakfast. Staff are super friendly and the garden and outdoor dining room are beautiful.

There’s a short walk to the beach.

The property is close enough to the beach for ease and one step removed for serenity. It is a a relaxing sanctuary, very clean and friendly.

Nothing.

Beautiful building, tucked away from busy areas but easy access to beach, restaurants ect. Lovely spacious areas to spend time outside of room. Spotlessly clean and well cared for. Friendly and helpful staff, nothing to much trouble

Nothing

A really lovely calm, relaxing, clean and quiet place to stay. I stayed 4 nights but could have stayed longer, like others guests seemed to be. Very close to the beach (once you've figured out how to get there!) yet set back away from the bustle in a pleasant garden with cool areas to lounge in The food is absolutely excellent. The 'local breakfast' one of the best ever (and they even managed to present it in an arty and cheffy way, no mean feat with string hoppers and dhal curry!) The vegetable rice n curry dinner also was delicious. Helpful, smiling staff who seem to be on duty 24/7 Comfortable bed, hot shower, tasteful stone bathroom. I hope I get to stay here again.

It's not on the main drag, which is a good thing but it's a little harder to find (until you know) and it means not such a wide choice of eating places at night. There's an excellent new place just around the corner though, serving authentic Italian dishes for a change. About 95% of the guests seemed to be of a certain nationality, not a problem, but they weren't at all friendly. Only one person even acknowledged me in the 4 days I was there, so if you're looking for someone to chat to, better bring someone with 😉 It's a wee bit pricey for Sri Lanka. But then, it's Unawatuna. it's probably worth the extra.

Great place! Very polite staff, always ready to help with any issue. The smile of the hostess lit up our lives! Sitting on the veranda in the evening, listening to the birds and chipmunks - it's amazing!

The room is quite dark due to the walls. But you didn't come to Sri Lanka to sit in your room, right?!

The hotel was really clean, the breakfast was nice, the room was comfortable enough. The staff was nice.

The wifi signal was not strong.

Breakfast is excellent

Quiet location. Clean room with good ac and fan. Helpful staff. Wonderful Sri Lankan breakfast.

Nothing.

Hotel was located in very green area, with palms, surrounded by nature, 200m from the beach Very tasty breakfast ( fruits, coffee, tea, fresh juice, all kinds of eggs, bread, sweets, marmalade, Sri Lankan breakfast option as well) was served next to the garden, in very relaxing, calm area. Rooms were clean, always with warm water, modest but nicely decorated. Staff was super friendly, helpful, smiled, always supportive. We highly recommend the hotel.

nothing, all was perfect

Good room & bed was comfy. The location was perfect as it was right by the beach & just a short walk from the hotel. The breakfast was nice & the staff were friendly.

We weren't the biggest fans of Unawatuna as we found the type of tourists it brought spoiled the area. Some of the locals spoke to us about how the area had become worse for beach pollution. Go head to Mirissa if you want a nice beach & good vibes!

Very nice and quiet hotel, close to the beach. The location is perfect. The staff is great. Very good breakfast and dinner. Our room was clean, wide and so comfortable. The beds are big and very comfortable. The hotel is very quiet during the night, we slept really well.

Everything was perfect.

Conforms to the description. Great welcome, choice at breakfast and great location near the beach

A cramped exterior wedged between the restaurant space and the neighbors but fortunately large outdoor lounge available Door separates adjoining room (fortunately discreet neighbor)

Close to beach

No water everyday

The breakfast was beautifully presented and wide range of options.

Peace full area with attentive staff ,

Nothing,

We loved our stay at Nor Lanka. The family size room was very spacious, and exactly what we wanted for a 4-person family; it would also comfortably fit 5. The A/C was great, and the mosquito nets were long and well-maintained. There was one bathroom with a nice shower. Communicating with the hotel via booking.com, WhatsApp, and phone was very easy and friendly. They helped us reserve a parking spot at the last minute, and graciously held our bags when we forgot to inform them of our need for early checkout. It's a very charming 3 minute walk to the beach--the location is great. Overall a great deal for the price. We will stay at Nor Lanka again if we return to Unawatuna.

Our only complaint was that we would have preferred the Sri Lankan breakfast, and weren't aware that we needed to order the night before. Our kids didn't care for the other options on the menu; however, the fruit plate was very nice.

Such a nice and comfortable hotel. Very good value also! Breakfast every morning was also delicious. Most comfortable bed I slept in in Sri Lanka, with plenty of room and good AC!

Nothing to do with the hotel, but if I had to choose again I would definitely avoid Unawatuna. Felt so uncomfortable there and the beach is incredibly overrated

Lovely accommodation away from the noise of the resort. Rooms very comfortable and staff restful friendly

Could do with a kettle in the bedroom

Really clean in Sri Lanka.

Too small room and hard to get to the Main Street

Lovely location super clean and great breakfast! Even let us shower later before a late flight!

Lovely quiet hotel close to the beach and shops. Great A/c for our first night here.

N/A

Very clean rooms with confortable beds. There is all you need in the room. Very well taken care of. The breakfast is very nice, you can choose between local and western food. The service is very friendly. It’s only a fee minutes walking to the beach.

It was one of the best properties a beautiful little oasis of calm. Very clean and very comfortable and tastefully decorated.

Nothing

Spacious and peaceful . Good size rooms.

The bedrooms were big, and the bed was big and comfortable. Nice balcony, and hot showers. The breakfast was nice. Location was good, 5 minute walk to the beach, 15 minutes to the Main Street.

The staff is friendly, the hotel space is well organized, there are good areas for eating and relaxing. lots of cozy little things. Close to the beach and shopping street.

no electric kettle, internet is not good

The food is realy good. It is realy on another level. Dinner was 2500rp per person.

Nor Lanka was a very clean, friendly hotel very close to beach, shops & restaurants. The food was amazing, breakfast was filling & tasty & I’d recommend eating your evening meal here too. The owners have thought of everything you’d need for a great stay & the staff were very helpful

Nothing, all was great

The staff were excellent - really helpful and welcoming. The room was reasonably spacious and pleasant. It was cleaned each day and the bed was made. The wifi worked. The breakfast was excellent. The mosquito net around the bed is a good idea. The location is great, very close to the beach and shops, restaurants.

I booked the evening meal one night. The curry was disappointingly bland, so I ate out the following night. No facility to make tea in the room, which is a shame, not least because breakfast does not start until 8am. The shower would benefit from some indication as to which is the hot tap, which the cold. As it stands, it takes a while to get the temperature right.

Super clean rooms with hot water and AC. Very comfortable bed and great towels

Hidden gem!! Peaceful hotel with very friendly staff. Good breakfast and spacious rooms. Will come again😍

We had a very comfortable stay...clean...environment friendly...liked the idea of not using plastic items...breakfast was simple & straight from the kitchen.....staffs were wonderful...working hard & always with a smile. Was lucky yo meet the owner...friendly & warm lady. Natasha took goog care of us & am sure evry body else too.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff and delicious breakfast! Would definitely stay again!

The staff is great! Kind and friendly vibes! Especially the security and his dogs (you will see them if you return to hotel at night) Breakfast is ok. the location is also good if you like touristic places. I prefer something more authentic, so I left Unawatuna. Too many tourists and not the best type of them

I've been there for 4 days. Price It's too expensive for this hotel (it was 40$/night). Small room - not even a kettle. + they didn’t clean my room or change towels and bed linen

Hidden gem! You can feel the quality of service, design, hospitality! Don’t miss it!

the most relaxed place during my stay in Sri Lanka. Nor Lanka has the best of both Norway and Sri Lanka! perfect location for beach, best B&W beach restaurant, small supermarket. very comfortable rooms and relax areas. I had wonderful day with tuktuk of Mr Lal. Really kind gentlemen. let the hotel arrange this guided tour. Also loved the breakfast (good bread!) Thank you again kind an warm familie for making me feel so welcome🙏

Extremely friendly staff, very helpful. Great location, on the beachfront and yet private space
