シギリヤ近くのオススメ宿

非常に感じの良いオーナーで対応よく、無料の朝食付きが良かったです。買い物や外食しに行くには遠い場所にあります。宿泊した日が大雨と雷で夜中に電源が落ち、エアコンも電気も点かず携帯電話の灯りで過ごしたのがきつかったです。

Tolle Unterkunft mit mega lion's rock Aussicht

Das Personal ist einfach klasse. So lieb, und hilfsbereit. Sie organisieren auch tolle Ausflüge und helfen bei der Weiterfahrt. Die Lage ist der hammer. Direkter Blick auf den lion's rock beim Frühstück. Was will man mehr. Wir konnten von unserer Terrasse aus direkt bunte Vögel und Affen sehen.

Très pittoresque de se retrouver dans la nature. Un accueil très chaleureux. La chambre est simple mais bien décorée et propre avec une moustiquaire. Dîner excellent et un service exemplaire. Petit déjeuner copieux dehors entourés de petits écureuils. Aucune critique si ce n est un petit frigo serait bienvenu!

Mitten im Dschungel mit Sicht auf den Felsen

Nette Anlage mit schönem Garten. Wir hatten ein schönes Zimmer im ersten Stock des Neubaus. In den Villas an sich war der Geruch zu seltsam. Bad relativ einfach. Essen in Ordnung
