📍 80, 84 Nilaveli Road, Trincomalee

"The location is very convenient, right on the beach. The sunrise can be seen directly from the hotel and it’s beautiful! The service attitude is perfect 💯, but the facilities are not perfect enough, it is a new hotel. Suitable for vacation 🏖️"

Hotel Tobiko
8.6 (7 reviews)

Hotel Tobiko ★★★

📍 No 24 Murugapuri Road, Upppuveli, Trincomalee

"In a word, it's terrible. The only option is to stay for 1-2 nights, then all the negatives won't matter. 1. I arrived around 3:30 PM, was told the room was still occupied, and was offered the chance to stay at another hotel until evening. No problem, I went to the beach, took a walk, and returned around 10:00 PM. The room wasn't ready yet, there were people in it. I didn't check in until 11:15 PM. Basically, the day was wasted. 2. The room was dirty, with sand on the nightstands and a general lack of cleanliness. 3. The room description states: no desk, garden view of a construction site and a sealed door, barely any Wi-Fi in the room, laptop connection, no phone. 4. No soap, shower gel, shampoo – nothing. One thin towel, too thin to dry a kitten. 5. And most importantly, there was no cleaning service in 4 days. None. Absolutely no one entered the room. I strongly recommend it."

Villa Hotel
7.7 (31 reviews)

Villa Hotel ★★★

📍 22 Lower Rd, Trincomalee

"Very good hotel, cost-effective, cold enough. We arrived late, the front desk was still staffed, and parking was convenient, just in the garden in front of the hotel"

Nilaveli Beach Hotel
8.9 (62 reviews)

Nilaveli Beach Hotel ★★★

📍 11th mile Post, Nilaveli

"Location is beautiful; beach is wonderful. Hotel clean but starting to show it's 50 years. Food was decent but very overpriced for Sri Lanka and the service was a bit lacklustre. Staff seemed to want to push everyone towards the overpriced buffet every evening. It was a nice but not a great experience; marred mainly by absolutely useless WiFi (none whatsoever in rooms and almost non existent in the bar and lobby) Beach is very peaceful but you can't really walk anywhere due to the Naval Beach to the South of the resort."

Anukama Resort
8.6 (53 reviews)

Anukama Resort ★★★

📍 Nilaveli, Trincomalee

"A good hotel, we didn't regret staying here at all. Delicious breakfasts, delicious dinners, a nice clean pool and very friendly staff. The room smells delicious - lemongrass. The downside of the room is that it's very audible. We tried to go to bed early, since we had to get up early, but until 10 pm we could hear our neighbors clanking forks and chatting while having dinner. Another downside is the location of the air conditioner. It blows directly onto the bed, and there are no blankets in the hotel, only sheets. It's cold with the air conditioner, hot without it 😁 But overall, these two downsides didn't outweigh the positive attitude, since the hotel seemed very cool to us. I'd like to single out the book with tasks that my son was given as a separate plus. There are a lot of interesting tasks that he completed while waiting for dinner, or during the day. After completing the book, there is a gift - ice cream. Very nice. By the way, there is a wonderful beach five minutes from the hotel! 🥰 and there are almost no people there."

The Beach House  Nilaveli Hotels in Trincomalee

The Beach House Nilaveli

"Overall, it's a good place: spacious rooms, 30 meters from the endless, deserted beach (through the grounds of the neighboring resort). You can use the resort's sun loungers. Breakfasts were excellent. The air conditioning and Wi-Fi worked perfectly. The staff was polite and helpful. Any issues that arose were resolved promptly. The main problem was upon check-in, when the owner said he couldn't see my reservation. It turned out his infrastructure was tailored exclusively to *********** and Agoda. It was a bit of a bummer..."

Oceanfront Condominium - Nilaveli Hotels in Trincomalee

Oceanfront Condominium - Nilaveli

"The worst place I’ve stayed in for years. Don’t know where to start. Service was atrocious. The photos on this site are fictitious. The pool is small and full of bugs. The apartment was a nice size with 3 nice size rooms and spacious living area. That is the only positive thing I have to say. The curtains in the room did not keep any of the light out and my whole family woke at 6:20 am. When I told the manager he just nodded. No care for customer happiness here. At the pool area, the were a shortage of sunbeds. There was no staff there to ask for help. We stood there for 20 minutes before I had to walk to the reception to get them to send someone over to our side ( the place is split into 2 wings). He finally arrived and it took him 2 hours and 20 mins to cone back with beds. The sunbed toppers are as thin as a sheet and soiled. The “restaurant” sub standard. Breakfast so limited. Can’t order a coffee or eggs. Just a simple buffet. We left the place 3 days early and the staff didn’t even bother asking what was wrong or what they can do to make our stay better. I would stay right away from this pace. The beach is beautiful and any other place along it will be far better."

"A small house on the beach. The location is just a dream. But when we were inhabited, we were not waiting. The house smelled bad and the flying flies flew. The mouse ran at night. From the pleasant waves are constantly heard"

Jeys Place

"We went to Jeys Place for a snack while waiting for our Ayurveda treatment in a nearby spa … and we liked it so much we came back for dinner too! The atmosphere is very nice and calm, the food is great, but the hospitality is what does the trick! Highly recommend if you are looking for a simple and real Sri-Lankan experience."

"Booked 2 family rooms & paid deposit .When we turned up the manager who said he was a former lieutenant in the army said only one room was available,as the guest in the room reserved for us is sick & refuses to go .So some of us have to spend one night in a different hotel! But when confronted he admitted that he lied !We had to pay him additional money for the other hotel . Rest of the staff were very good .Beware of mosquito.Hoards of it ."

Thirumalai Park Hotels in Trincomalee

Thirumalai Park

"One of the worst hotels on the island...no air conditioning, the stuffiness is terrible. We spent two nights here. I had nightmares... I woke up every hour from lack of air. There is no hot water provided. The linen is of terrible quality... it feels like bed fleas are biting. 850 meters from the beach. Walk along the country road. There are a lot of cows and dogs on the beach. Quite dirty. On the left side is a security zone with a radiation sign. After 18:00 we couldn’t get to the beach due to a lot of wild and angry dogs... this is also the first time I’ve seen it. The food at the hotel is tasteless, they don’t know how to cook at all. And very expensive at that. 6,000 rupees for two for tuna overcooked to black and fresh juice from who knows what. There are a lot of intrusive dogs on the hotel premises that rush at you from all angles. God forbid you end up with food in your hands. To get into the room you have to work hard to drive them away. There is nowhere to eat outside the hotel. This is a village."

"This place was truly special, with clean spacious rooms and in a great location to explore the rest of the town and beach. The owner and staff made us feel at home, with their hospitality and dining experience. I highly recommend a stay at Neem Tree House. I would go back in a heartbeat."

Namaste Nilaveli Hotels in Trincomalee

Namaste Nilaveli

"This is a new small guest house (ca. 8 rooms) in Nilaveli. It's on a side road with no traffic and hardly any neighbours - very quiet at night! It's a 10-minute walk to the lovely Nilaveli beach, all on side roads with no traffic, passing typical Sri Lankan houses with the occasional cow on the road. The beach is beautiful there, you can walk along it for a long distance. The room was very large with a double bed, bedside tables, shelves to keep stuff, plenty of hangers and clothes rack. There was AC and fan for cooling. The room had 17 plugs! The bathroom is very spacious, no wet floors all over when taking a shower. There is also a nice sitting area in front of the room to relax. Everything is spotless clean. The hotel was completed just before the Covid outbreak. Right now there is no hot water or TV but I guess that will be put once the guests start arriving. The owner is on site and makes sure that everybody is comfortable. He has worked in a luxury hotel before and knows what he is doing. The food was simply amazing. You discuss your food desires in the morning and they go shopping and prepare it freshly for you. Delicious! We definitely will come back here."

Sea Zone Hotel Nilaveli Hotels in Trincomalee

Sea Zone Hotel Nilaveli

"My stay at this accommodation was truly delightful. There is a warm, family-like atmosphere, carefully maintained by the kind and attentive hosts. Throughout our stay, they regularly checked in to ensure everything was in order, and they always responded to our individual requests with a smile and genuine enthusiasm. Together, we created a beautiful and memorable ambiance that we enjoyed for eight days. The breakfasts were a highlight – especially the homemade roti and fresh papaya, which quickly became our favorites, prepared with care and love. I wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming place to stay. These are the kindest people I met during my time in Sri Lanka.♥️"

"The staff is extremely friendly! They were always helpful! The location is also good, just 5 minutes from the beach! But the rooms are unfortunately very outdated, and the bathroom really smelled of sewage. The bed was also uncomfortable. And the room wasn't cleaned during our stay. We would book the hotel again because of the location and the friendly staff."

Hotel Tobiko ★★★
"Hotel owners were a lovely couple. They are sweet and kind. Feeding the stray dogs and they own a cat and a cute puppy at the hotel. Jacob the co-owner is a very experienced hotelier. I like his sharing of his stories and chatting causally about his life. My room is at the top floor, no lift, and air-con. It has a viewing platform to a partial seaview. There's construction going on nearby so afternoon nap can be interrupted. The beach near the hotel is wonderful, you can see fishermen working and the few restaurants serve dinner."

Villa Hotel ★★★
"Stayed in Rm120 on the top floor, which had a good view. Wi Fi is next to useless. If you are a person of large size, then you would struggle to get into the shower, which was cold. If you struggle with stairs, then this is not the place for you. No lift, just many stairs, particuarly if you are on the top level. Good AC amd fans, comfortable bed, bar fridge and kettle in room. Lock on balcony glass door, as shown in pic has issues."

Nilaveli Beach Hotel ★★★
"Location is one of the best in the world. Atmosphere is extremely relaxing. Particularly because the premises are large, the buildings are spread out and low-key, and the garden stretching from the hotel to the beach is shaded and welcoming - just fabulous. The rooms are spacious. Perhaps the arrangements could be improved so that in such a large room one does not have to stare at the luggage from the bed. Good value for money for an overseas visitor. Pricey for locals. Very clean. Some manner of cleaning off the sand from your feet would be welcome. No noise issues in general. However the sound level of music is too high. Actually there should not be any music at the beach restaurant- guests prefer to hear the sounds of the ocean. Service was excellent. We particularly commend the personalised service of Mr Chandana (Bar & Restaurant Supervisor) and Mr Nilushan (Chef). Food was very good but should offer more choices for vegetarians. WiFi did not work in our rooms -3 and S2."
