Away from it all.

Friendly staff and a nice pool but a bit far out from town unless you really want to get away from it all. The rooms were ok with a basic concrete finish. For the price it would have been nice to have a tiled bathroom and shower screen fitted.

Terrible hotel

This is Not a typical hotel. This is a safari type cottage. They have only 4 rooms, nicely built, nice interior but poorly maintained. If you Need any help or need to contact the reception need to walkout, no phone facility. The most terrible thing is the drive. It is about 3-4 KM away from the road.. The road is narrow, muddy and bumpy. Hardly a car can be driven safely. I doubt if it rain a car can be driven that road. I do not recommend for a family stay.

Peaceful hotel

A little slice of paradise, a very peaceful location away from the hustle and bustle. The owner arranged the most spectacular safari and everyone took excellent care of us. The food was delicious and the tuk tuk driver was such a nice guy. He took us climbing up a mountain and held out a hand to us to help us climb. He went above and beyond. All in all a lovely place to stay.

The scenary is stunning but it is very hard to find with the difficult access dirt road. The host had to send a tutu to pick us up half way through as our car is hard to pass. The room has excellent lake view, big size room and bathroom and comfortable king bed but the extra roller bed we requested had some stains on the sheets and the hot water ran out very quickly only enough for a quick shower.

Sajee’s 10/10 Hospitality & the Birdwing Stone

Birdwing Sigiriya felt like a home away from home, thanks to Sajee’s infectious warmth and attention to detail 🏡. From the moment we arrived, she treated us like family—whether it was sharing stories over tea or surprising us with a stroll to discover the magical "Birdwing Stone," a tucked-away spot only locals know. Her genuine care (10/10 host vibes!) turned a simple stay into an adventure. The only tiny note? A mini fridge would’ve been handy for midnight snacks after those long days exploring Sigiriya’s ancient wonders. But honestly, Sajee’s hospitality outshone any small inconvenience. If you’re craving a mix of cozy comfort and local secrets, this spot’s a gem 💎. Sources

Un séjour mémorable!!! Digne d'un cinq étoiles

Nous avons rĂ©servĂ© Ă  cette hĂŽtel afin de nous reposer suite Ă  un sĂ©jour Ă©prouvant dans la ville de Colombo. AprĂšs une longue recherche du tuk-tuk, nous sommes arrivĂ©s dans un petit coin de paradis. Absolument tout Ă©tait parfait! Le gĂ©rant nous a acceuilli avec des serviettes aromatisĂ©es pour le visage et des jus de papaye fraĂźchement pressĂ©s. Puis il nous a amenĂ© Ă  notre chambre dans l'un des six bungalows....encore une fois parfait! Le lavabo Ă©tait ornĂ© de fleurs fraiches, il y avait l'air climatisĂ©, une salle de bain digne d'un cinq Ă©toiles, un lit extrĂȘmement confortable et mĂȘme un grand balcon oĂč nous avons aperçu plusieurs paons le lendemain matin. Lors de la journĂ©e nous avons profitĂ© de la piscine infinie dans un dĂ©cor Ă  couper le souffle. Le gĂ©rant (toujours aux petits soins)nous a prĂ©parĂ© un club sandwich (excellent), puis il nous a amenĂ© Ă  un point de vue oĂč nous avons observĂ© le lion rock. Pour le souper, les employĂ©s ont dĂ©placĂ© les tables autour de la piscine pour y faire des soupers aux chandelles... magnifique!!! Un sĂ©jour plus que mĂ©morable! Personnel : gentil, courtois et aux petits soins! Nourriture : d'une qualitĂ© exceptionnelle! Emplacement : un peu loins du centre, mais ça en vaut la peine!!! N'hĂ©sitez surtout pas Ă  le rĂ©server!

Hotel bonito y con vistaz preciosas a un lago.

El hotel en si esta nuy bien. En medio de la nada y en el lago. Las vistas son preciosas. Si quierrs relajarte es una opcion muy buena. Lo unico esta muy apartado y es dificil de encontrarlo x un camino nada bueno. Recomendable si quedas con los del hotel para que te vayan a buscar y te llevan ellos. En la habitacion no habia wifi, solo el comedor. Habitaciones limpias y con terraza con vistas preciosas al lago.
