Fabulous boutique hotel 10/10!

Fantastic boutique hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. The room was exceptional and we had a huge pool to share between only four rooms. The breakfast was perfectly good with nice fresh produce. Would definitely stay again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others.

Ambiente familiare! Consigliatissimo!
Pros:

Ho soggiornato qui con la mia famiglia, al nostro arrivo i ragazzi ci hanno fatto sentire subito ben accolti. Nonostante fossimo arrivati ben prima dell’ora del checkin, ci hanno offerto la colazione e dato gli asciugamani per la piscina, nell’attesa della nostra camera. Sono stati tutti molto disponibili e hanno cercato di soddisfare ogni nostra richiesta. Ci hanno aiutato ad organizzare tutte le nostre escursioni. Colazione ottima e abbondante! Consigliatissimo!

Cons:

Niente

Het personeel legt je hier dik in de watten!
Pros:

Het personeel is supervriendelijk. Geen moeite is te veel. Ze geven interessante tips over de buurt en denken in alles mee. Ze hebben voor ons 2 trips geregeld aan een eerlijke prijs. Dit is echt een aanrader.

Cons:

Naar het centrum moet je een klein eindje wandelen, maar met een tuk tuk ben je er in een vingerknip.

Lo primero que tengo para resaltar es la amabilidad del personal, si fuese posible le daria un 15. Las instalaciones son perfectas, tienes toalla, secador de pelo, el agua corriente tiene potencia… El desayuno estaba buenísimo y muy completo. SUPER RECOMENDABLE!! 🤍

Gute Lage, sehr nettes Personal, große Zimmer und sehr reichhaltiges Frühstück
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt sehr ruhig, sodass man keinen Straßenlärm hört. Zum Lions Rock kann man gut zu Fuß gehen. Es gibt außerdem mehrere Restaurants in der Umgebung. Der Pool liegt in einem schönen Garten, die Zimmer waren groß und sauber. Hervorzuheben ist die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter. Sie waren sehr bemüht um unsere Kinder. Das Frühstück war lecker und sehr üppig.

Cons:

Evtl könnte man rund vor dem Pool einige der Steinplatten erneuern.

Super schöner Aufenthalt
Pros:

Das il Frangipane ist mitten in Sigiriya, aber da es in einer Nebenstraße ist, ist es total ruhig dort. Die Außenanlage ist schön gepflegt. Der Pool ist sauber und inmitten der Bepflanzung schön idyllisch angelegt. Alle Mitarbeiter sind zuvorkommend. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet und sauber. Das Frühstück ist eine Kombination aus Sri Lankischem Frühstück und westlichen Einfluss, sowie frischem Obst, so dass jeder was findet, was ihm schmeckt. Wir hatten ein Familienzimmer. Die Kinder haben sich richtig wohl gefühlt.

Pros:

The staff were very friendly and attentive. Delicious breakfast with ample foods. We also enjoyed 2 evening meals there that were equally delicious. The beautiful lush plantings around the pool made for a tropical feeling. It was very quiet and we had a very nice time there.

Cons:

The wifi did not work in our room for most of the time which was frustrating. We told the staff but they were unable to solve the problem. Wifi worked okay at the pool area and dining area.

Beautiful stay with beautiful people
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at Il Frangipane and would happily return. We stayed in the Triple Suite, which was incredibly spacious and perfect for a family. The room was modern, beautifully designed, and featured two very comfortable beds, giving us plenty of space to relax after our days exploring Sri Lanka.

One of the highlights was the private pool, which is exclusively accessible to the four new rooms. It felt peaceful, secluded, and added a touch of luxury to our stay.

What truly made this place special, however, were the people. Raveen, the owner, was genuinely warm and attentive, always checking that everything was perfect and making us feel incredibly welcome. Narlaka and the rest of the team were equally wonderful – friendly, helpful, and always smiling. Their hospitality was exceptional and made us feel more like guests in a family home than customers in a hotel.

Breakfast was delicious and thoughtfully adapted for us. The team kindly prepared modified versions of pancakes and hoppers to suit our preferences. The fresh fruit was excellent, and the smoothies were absolutely lovely – fresh, refreshing, and the perfect way to start the day.

I would definitely recommend Il Frangipane to families looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay. This is exactly why we love travelling in Sri Lanka – the genuine warmth and hospitality are second to none. Boutique hotels like this offer such a personal and memorable experience that you simply don’t get in larger resorts.

Thank you to Raveen, Narlaka, and the entire team for making our stay so enjoyable. We left with wonderful memories and would highly recommend Il Frangipane to anyone visiting the area.

Cons:

Didn’t spend enough time
