Pros:

One of our favourite stays in Sri Lanka! We got a free room upgrade and the room was so spacious, comfortable and clean. The host was very accommodating, he organised an elephant safari and transfers for us! We would highly recommend this place! Roxy was a highlight for sure 😍

Pros:

Super fijn hotel op een mooie rustige locatie. Ligt dichtbij een leuk straatje met lekkere restaurants. Fijne schone slaapkamer met leuk balkonnetje en prachtig uitzicht op de rijstvelden en Lions Rock. Heel goed bed om heerlijk in te slapen. Fijn en mooi zwembad. Leuke eet ruimte buiten met een mooie uitkijk op een tuin waar mooie eendjes en witte Sri Lankaanse reigers rondlopen. Zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel.

Cons:

Helemaal niets!

Pros:

Good location off the main rd through Sigiriya down bit of a track surrounded by rice fields. Watch out for elephants! They do roam the area.

There isn't much to do in Sigiriya, no shops etc so having a decent hotel a good thing. The pool was nice and there is a good outdoor area. We had horrendous rain there and it was extremely loud on the metal roof but think alot of properties have that roofing.

Staff helpful did some washing for me. The breakfast was fine nothing too extraordinary but still think good value for money.

We had a lovely cheap meal at Kenoli at the end of the ed.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Завтрак и подогреваемый бассейн

Cons:

Ресторан не работает аля карт, кафе у бассейна блюда не вкусные, обслуживание медленное, бассейн не расчитан на такое количество номеров, всего 4 лежака. Далеко от центра. Невозможно отключить свет у стола ночью

Empfehlenswert :-)
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Die Aussicht auf den Lionrock war super.

Cons:

Es gibt einige Liegen am Pool, jedoch manche ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen und kaum nutzbar - diese sollten ausgetauscht werden, da die Liegen dadurch teilweise nicht für die Gäste ausgereicht haben.
