Lovely homestay overlooking Sigiriya rock
We stayed 2 nights and had a great time - the owner & his family are so welcoming and helpful. The accommodation is not in the center of Sigiriya so you need a tuktuk to get to and from there. The accommodation is walking distance to Sigiriya rock, with a great view of it too!

Wi-Fiは動作せず、ネットワークも圏外。同居人にはアリとトカゲとカエル。でもシーギリヤロックを見ながらの朝食は最高でした。 またお部屋と洗面所自体は清潔で、エアコンもたまに反応しないことがあったものの快適でした。何よりオーナーが親切でいろいろと教えてくれたのが助かりました。

Amazing stay in the middle of the jungle!
UG and his family were such amazing hosts. They put me in the treehouse room, which at first I was a bit sceptical about but I ended up loving it as one of the most memorable parts of my trip. Right in the middle of the forest, around a 20 minute walk from Sigirya and Pidurangala rocks, very common to see elephants and deer walking around freely. Sri Lankan breakfast included as well was delicious and everything homemade! Would highly recommend for visits to see the two main rocks and a place to stay.

I am now very pleased to review this guesthouse. From any place you travel from to reach Sigirîya, you'll have to spend some time on dusty roads for the town, which exists only thanks to the continuous pilmgrimage of worldwide tourists, is kind of remote. At the scale of Sri Lanka at least. You'll find yourself on bumpy ways, navigate through deep tropical 'jungles', avoid elephants ready to jump on your face while hiding on the sides of the road when it's dark (yes particularly in this area !). So when you'll eventually arrive, all you want is to find a safe, welcoming and quiet place to reinvigorate yourself. That's exactly what this guesthouse is going to offer you! After your hard day, you'll just reach an oasis of calm plenty of beautiful paradisiacal flowers, elegant bungalow-like rooms, one of them in the garden being the main attraction of the house (see the picture). The owner is a dedicated person who will do literally everything to bring you comfort. Since he also grows rice and some vegetables in his garden, it is not totally impossible that elephants will come to... eat the rice (or try at least). Which is rather rare to be honest. However, they will be kept away with crackers and locals' fury. Nights, in Sigirîya in general, are picturesque for sure: Dogs suddenly scream, crackers boom all around, villagers switch their torches on at a distance to the point, you'll certainly ask yourself in the safety of your room: "Was there an elephant nearby tonight?"

Overnight in Sigiriya
Sigiriya Rock Gate Resort is owned and run by the nicest family. The husband and wife are so welcoming and accommodating. As soon my friend and I had been dropped off at the small, but recently updated, resort we were made to feel welcome and part of the family. The family served us a delicious fresh orange juice from the oranges in their trees. The room was beautifully done and immaculately clean. The air conditioning was a welcome relief after a long tuk tuk ride. We ate dinner there and the husband made the best chicken fried rice and kottu. Yummy! The location cannot be beat. It was about a ten minute walk to the rock, which is a perfect thing to do when you wake up in the morning. From the back yard, there is a gorgeous view of the two rocks. Lovely new place to stay near Sigiriya. The owner spoke enough English to be very helpful and arrange various programs in the area.
