Pros:

Everything about our stay was exceptional, thanks to Sujee and Faye. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! They were very warm, attentive, and full of good humor. Their friendliness and genuine care made the experience special.

The swimming pool was another highlight—spotlessly clean and incredibly refreshing after a both climbs

Glad we chose to stay here 2 nights.
Pros:

The room was comfortable. Breakfast was great. Broken fridge replaced immediately on request. Very friendly staff. Great location opposite rice paddy's with Lion Rock in the backdrop. Plenty of wildlife all around. I'd definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Darker blind in our room perhaps.

Pros:

Thankyou to the staff. Really friendly and accommodating. Provided us 3 rooms on the top floor complimentary. The views of Sigirya with the paddy fields below is iconic. The cute freindly doggo roaming around was also so nice.

Cons:

Just a few broken things in the room that will need attending to as explained. However the place and location is exceptional for what you get.

Great hotel in Sigiriya
Pros:

This is a place I would love to stay longer. We only had 10 days to explore Sri Lanka, so we could only stay one night, but everything exceeded our expectations. The rooms were clean and spacious. We had a wonderful time on our balcony. They were very helpful in providing everything we needed. There are many landmarks and restaurants accessible by tuktuk. They can also assist with transportation if needed. If you don't want to go anywhere, they also have a food menu. You can enjoy the surroundings from the hotel. We also miss their dog, Roxy!

Cons:

Nothing.

Great stay
Pros:

This is in a great location with views of Lion Rock. The pool is nice and clean and loungers and pool towels are provided too.
The staff are so friendly and the food is very tasty (we had lunch one day and dinner on another). We had the family room which was huge, it was lovely to have the space. Highly recommend this hotel.

Pros:

Die Unterkunft ist top. Schönes Zimmer, schöner Pool, tolles Personal! Die Lage ist sehr gut. Man ist innerhalb von 10min an der Hauptstraße und hat gleichzeitig einen tollen Blick auf den Lion Rock. Pool ist bei dem Wetter natürlich auch ein game changer!
Das Personal ist auch top. Sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Teilweise sogar schon fast zu hilfsbereit, da der Wunsch schon von den Lippen abgelesen wird bevor er konkret ausgesprochen wurde ;).
Ich würde hier aufjedenfall wieder buchen und meinen Freunden empfehlen auch herzukommen.
