The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. The guest house offers some units that feature a safety deposit box, and the units include a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries. At the guest house, each unit comes with bed linen and towels. Extremely clean and looked after, with important details such as mosquito net for the bed as the area hosts a lot of them! Kind and helpful service from the owner, his wife and his mum. Delicious and cheap food served on site. Bikes to explore the ruins can be dropped directly here! I would definitely recommend!

At the guest house, every unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. Sahan Guest House was an awesome find! The welcome was warm and genuine — I was even greeted with a refreshing welcome drink, which was a great touch after a long trip. The room was super clean, air-conditioned, and really comfortable. WiFi was fast and reliable, which was perfect for planning my day trips and staying connected. The location is perfect — right in the city, close to everything, and just a short ride to the ancient city. Super convenient if you’re exploring the cultural sites nearby. There’s also fast food and other restaurants nearby if you’re craving a quick bite. Honestly, the hospitality here is top-notch. Sahan and the team really care about their guests. I felt safe, relaxed, and very well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!🍹🇻🇳

Featuring garden views, New Haven Polonnaruwa features accommodation with balcony, around 49 km from Pidurangala Rock. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. New Haven Polonnaruwa has been, by far, the best guesthouse I've been in my whole trip. The place is brand new, extremely comfortable and clean. It is also decorated with good taste. The exterior area, still under construction, is spaceous, and has a lot of possibilities. It has a traditional kitchen built in clay, and an area to have breakfast/lunch/dinner very cozy and nice. Congratulations to the chef! Food is so good! The owner, Iran, puts a lot of love on the project. Also he has shown me his amazing paddy field, we've collected coconuts together and do not worry if the place doesn't have a swimming pool (yet), because he took me to a canal for a nice swim very near from the place.
