I recently stayed at Rapid Edge in Kitulgala, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The hotel is perfectly located with beautiful river views, giving a peaceful and natural atmosphere. Rooms are very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained — ideal for anyone looking for a relaxing stay close to nature. One of the best things about this hotel is that they also organize rafting and canyoning adventures. Their team is friendly, highly professional, and ensures safety at every step. Rafting on the Kitulgala river was thrilling, and canyoning added a unique adventure experience that I highly recommend. The staff is extremely helpful, welcoming, and always ready to assist. Whether you're coming for adventure or relaxation, They offers the perfect combination of comfort and excitement. Highly recommended for families, adventure lovers, and anyone visiting Kitulgala!

Fantastic service with really kind and attentive staff. They were super helpful with organising things and you can tell they are proud of their hotel. The hotel has a great view that is nice and close to the rapids for rafting. Our room was lovely! The bedroom was very spacious and comfortable and the bathroom was clean. It was nice to have consistent hot water as well. The restaurant was delicious. We were served a big filling breakfast that kept us going. We also had beautiful dinner from their restaurant at really affordable prices. A wonderful stay!

FAQs about hotels in Kitulgala

What guests said about Kitulgala:

10

Kitulgala is a great stop over on your way to the hill...

Kitulgala is a great stop over on your way to the hill country or coming back and avoids the Colombo Kandy route. While famous for rafting, lately there has been quite a bit of investment going into other outdoor experiences including mountain biking, trekking and other adventure activities. But even if you are not into the adrenaline rush, it's a great place to disconnect and unwind.

Although the location of this hotel is great and staff are lovely, the facilities need some serious work. We had a leaking toilet, cold shower, dirty restaurant toilets and the pool facilities were falling apart (broken sunloungers and broken bridge to the river). The hotel needs a lot of work. Once renovated it’s a lovely spot.

Kenny and his team were incredible hosts and provided us with so much hospitality. The service was impeccable! We really enjoyed the surrounding nature, the hotel had a space for us to practice yoga, and a river nearby with natural pools to swim. The food was delicious.

Good basic affordable accommodation. Staff really approachable and happy to help. Dinner was delicious and breakfast the same and very generous. The hidden extra here is the pool in the river just below the hotel which is clean for swimming a lovely surprise.

The location was remote, journey was exciting. Road getting to hotel isnt suitable for low cars but was already aware of this so we had no issues. The room was very clean. Staff were helpful. Facilities in the room were great, the heated plunge pool is a must.
