מקום אותנטי וחמוד, הצוות נהדר ועשה את החוויה לטובה יותר, שווה את המחיר
Pros:

המקום קטן וחמוד המכיל מספר חדרים בודדים מאחורי מסעדה קטנה ואותנטית. המיקום מצויין וקרוב מאוד לאתרי צלילה מצויינים וליד בר הפרננדוס. בעל המקום והצוות מאוד נחמדים ושירותיים ביותר. שווה את המחיר יחסית למקומות אחרים בטרינקומלי

Cons:

שירותים והמקלחת הם אחד על השני, קצת לא נוח ומרגיש צפוף. בנוסף היה קצת רעש לעיתים בלילה בגלל שידורי המונדיאל שהיו.

Merci 🙏
Pros:

Notre coup de cœur du voyage! Nous avons été charmé par la chambre mais surtout par le propriétaire et sa femme qui sont bienveillants et vraiment adorables. Leur jus de pastèque est un délice et la petite boutique regorge de pépite! L’emplacement en face de la plage est vraiment super !

Cons:

Nous aurions aimé rester plus longtemps!

Planning my next trip to Capital Trincomalee already
Pros:

The location is ideal as it’s right next to the beach, diving centers, and other restaurants/parties. There was a large parking space opposite the place too which was very convenient.

Aside from the location, the staff members were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean, place was cosy, and the food was exceptionally good - hats off to the chef!

Amazing amazing stay!
Pros:

The staff, food, location and space in general was a 10/10.
The staff in particular were so pleasant, extremely warm and accommodating. Everything that came out of the kitchen was so delicious that whenever we tried something from anywhere else we were disappointed - ended up eating all our meals here and not a single one disappointed.

Sfeervol met geweldig restaurant
Pros:

Capital was bijna aan het strand bij Fernando met leuke eettentjes en strandbedden. Relaxte sfeer.



Het eten was buitengewoon goed bij Capital. Heerlijk ontbijt en geweldig diner. De kok deed ontzettend zijn best en bereidde exclusieve maaltijden. De verse tonijn smaakte geweldig. Strandlakens waren inbegrepen.

Cons:

In het weekend was er een dj bij Fernando, die je in bed kon horen.

A great spot to base yourself for a stay in Trinco. Ideal location for Uppaveli beach.
Pros:

Really nice, spacious room behind a lovely little restaurant and only metres away from the beach and beach bar. Nice outdoor seating, delicious European style breakfast and helpful staff.

Exceptional stay, great value for money
Pros:

Squeaky clean rooms and a really calm, relaxing vibe throughout the place. The interior décor is simple and serene, making it a great spot to unwind. The food was delicious with generous portions, and the staff were amazingly friendly and genuinely hospitable.

The location is excellent—right by Uppuweli Beach and just a short walk from the Fernandez Beach Market. Perfect if you're looking for a peaceful place to relax by the beach.

What stood out the most was the value for money. Very fair pricing for what you get. Would definitely recommend staying here if you're visiting Uppuweli. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pros:

Location was great - just minutes from a beautiful beach, and the staff are really friendly and helpful! After arriving early we were able to check in early and were given our first proper Sri Lankan tea :) The room was spotless and comfortable with a nice peaceful area to sit outside. I will definitely stay again on my next visit. Due to our visit being out of season the restaurant was closed -so we ate at JK food cafe, which was delicious :)

Cons:

Wish our stay was longer :)

Beautiful stay in Capital Trincomalee! Vegan and Vegetarian Friendly!
Pros:

Beautiful rooms, super clean and bright - loved the green doors and windows! The room smelt amazing and so clean. Garden around the property was lovely too, and the restaurant was incredible - the best food and so fresh and the chef kindly catered to our dietary requirements (Vegan and Vegetarian). The chef It’s directly opposite Fernando’s Bar / Market and the beach (literally 30 second walk) so such a good location.

Cons:

It wasn’t a problem for us but as a heads up to other guests there’s no hot water. Fortunately it was extremely hot and the cold shower was welcomed! As it’s so close to other bars/beach/restaurant you can hear surrounding properties music, but that’s to be expected from such a central location.

Pros:

Staff are genuinely lovely people, food at the adjoining cafe was sensational - cold beers, delicious meals. Aircon in the room was lovely and cold. Very clean. Excellent location in Uppuveli, just across from Fernando’s.

Cons:

The shower facing directly over the toilet is deranged. It has a warm water flow rate of 1.5L/m which is roughly the equivalent of a watering can, and we had to google how to use the heating device because otherwise it’s just straight cold water. The walls are quite thin, so sound can be an issue if you’re an early sleeper (before 11pm). For a country with tea as its second largest export, should probably have a kettle.
