Best place we stayed
The best place in Sigirya! We loved the place and extended 2 times our stay because it’s so comfortable! The rooms are big and clean it was perfect for what we needed. The breakfast is include and the plates are amazing lots of food and very tasty. Also the people who works here are helpful, nice and kind heart person. The chef even made us a 5 stars diner and let us stay in the kitchen to show us how some of the dishes are made. Location is also ideal very close from everything.

Ideal location for hiking!
We had an enjoyable 1 night stay here. The breakfast was a large variety of Sri Lankan pastries. Great spot for 1 night if planning on doing the various hikes in the area.

Nice, inexpensive hotel with great breakfast
We stayed for four nights as a family of five with three children (aged 8,11 and 14) and we liked the hotel and the area. The staff is helpful and kind and it was easy to make the small adjustment to our breakfast for example. The rooms are nice, clean and very affordable. The internet WIFI is good and the speed is OK. The bathrooms are big and clean with plenty of hot water.

Monkeys were seen once a day on the premises.It is on the main street and the entrance of Sigiriya Rock is also near. I would like to stay again next time.
