Cafe Pinnalanda is a fantastic place for budget travelers who love elephants. the staff is friendly, the room is clean and comfortable, and the location is convenient. You can easily walk to the elephant orphanage and witness the bathing ritual in the river. the hotel also offers a free tour to nearby attractions, making it a great base for exploring the area.

The lack of restaurants on-site may be inconvenient who prefer to dine at the hotel.

Appreciated super and great breakfasts!!

Location : the hotel was close to the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, main attraction and a herbal garden where the guide was pushy. Also, it was 1 mile from Iparanigama Theme Park. The a double room was tastefully decorated with a balcony and a mini bar.

The room was equipped with climate control, multi-channel TV, and a kettle. The staff was good and kind when needed. The location is great and stunning, making Cafe Pinnalanda a lovely place that is convenient to go anywhere. It is close enough to the center and main attractions.

Conveniently located near supermarkets, this hotel offers clean rooms with 2 beds and a balcony. The friendly staff assists with luggage and provides towels and hot water. Suitable for a family stay, the room also includes a TV. An unbeatable price for a luxurious experience.

Thank you for a lovely stay. This hotel offers great breakfasts with the cheapest prices in Pinnawala, jam plus toast. - the venue offers unbeatable and stunning location only a short distance to Pinnawala downtown. Rewritten: We had a delightful stay at Cafe Pinnalanda. They serve fantastic breakfasts at the best prices in Pinnawala, including delicious jam and toast. the location is unbeatable, just a short distance from downtown Pinnawala.

We stayed at Cafe Pinnalanda for 4 nights, enjoying the convenience of its location right in front of the elephant orphanage. The room was clean and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities and a balcony. The breakfast was delightful, offering a mix of traditional Sri Lankan food, toast, fruits, and hot beverages. The staff went above and beyond to be helpful, even providing us with free rides to various attractions. we had an amazing time here and highly recommend it.

Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

The room was clean and comfortable, with satellite TV, AC, and a mini-bar fridge. the front balcony provided a different experience and the hotel's location was very convenient. Parking was also available. the breakfast served was good and the manager and other staff members were kind and helpful.

The staff's treatment and response to our requests were just okay. They constantly tried to persuade us to visit privately-run elephant farms where the animals are mistreated, instead of the government-run Pinnawalla Orphanage.

I always stay at a place with helpful staff; they found my lost barrette. It has Wi-Fi, parking, 24-hour reception, bar, restaurant, airport shuttle, laundry, flat-screen TV, kettle, VIP service, in-room breakfast, AC, non-smoking rooms - ideal for my city trips! No regrets!

Cafe Pinnalanda in Pinnawala always my choice. No regrets. Friendly staff helped me with taxi. Perfect place with Wi-Fi, parking, 24-hour reception, bar, restaurant. Flat-screen TV, kettle, VIP check-in, in-room breakfast. No pets. AC. Back for Easter.

I chose this hotel for the leadership summit I attended because it is a family-run business with over 30 years of experience. The location was excellent, in close proximity to the Elephant Park and other attractions. The facilities provided a comfortable stay and the staff was friendly and accommodating.

The only service I missed for my work was a reliable and fast Wi-Fi connection.

Very new room with air con. Best shower. Friendly manager. Close to the elephant freedom project. Nice and clean room. Good privacy. Highly recommend this place.

Nothing for me.

Poor tea and coffee facilities.

We had a fantastic stay at a lovely hotel in Pinnawala, just a stone's throw away from the Elephant Orphanage. The location couldn't have been more perfect for us. Our room was big, clean, and incredibly comfortable, providing us with everything we needed. The breakfast offered a delicious mix of Sri Lankan and European food, satisfying our taste buds in the morning. Despite a small hiccup with the Wi-Fi and TV not working, we were able to enjoy the peaceful ambiance of the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and convenient stay in Pinnawala.
