Pros:

The hosts were absolutely incredible such a warm, kind and welcoming family. The food was fantastic, nothing was ever too much trouble, and even their lovely dog Kiki added to the experience.
After I left, I realised I’d forgotten my charger, and the host actually travelled 10 kilometres to bring it to me. That really sums up just how helpful and caring they are.
A wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend Sigiriya Palace View to anyone visiting the area.

Cons:

Honestly, there wasn’t anything I disliked about my stay. I had a really positive experience from start to finish.

Pros:

I had an outstanding stay at this homestay. It is very comfortable, in a natural oasis with a direct view of Lion Rock. The garden atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming. It’s very close to Sigiriya’s restaurants and convenient as a base for all the nearby tours. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The room was spacious, clean, and quiet, with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was also clean and well maintained. The hosts are exceptionally warm and kind, always ready to make you feel at home. They’re happy to offer you a refreshing drink and sit down for a friendly chat, a lovely touch that really adds to the experience. Mr Suriya was incredibly helpful, always providing tips and suggestions about the tours and experiences to do. He personally organizes both transfers and trips, which are cheaper and smarter than what you find online. I recommend not to book experiences in advance online but to arrange everything directly with him on site. Suriya was a great help not only in Sigiriya, but also assisted me in organizing the rest of my trip across other destinations in Sri Lanka.

Super!
Pros:

Un grand merci à Suriya pour son accueil et sa gentillesse ! 🙏

Le logement était parfaitement conforme à l’annonce, et nous avons également eu la chance de profiter d’un dîner proposé par Suriya, aussi bon que généreux. 🍛

Suriya a été très réactif et disponible tout au long de notre séjour. Il nous a également proposé ses services pour nous faire découvrir Sigiriya, Dambulla et les alentours en tuk-tuk, tout en nous partageant de très bonnes adresses pour manger. 🛺

Il s’est aussi montré très arrangeant pour organiser nos autres trajets, notamment jusqu’à Kandy et Ambewela, avec l’aide de ses confrères.

Une très belle rencontre et un accueil au top !
Merci beaucoup Suriya, et à bientôt peut-être ! 🇱🇰

Nothing

Pros:

Amazing stay! Very very clean and comfortable. The host helped me literally in everything i needed offering me tours to all the attractions in the area without being pushy. As a solo traveller that was very very helpful because i didnt have to worry about anything. He also helped to arrange transportations to the cities nearby and everything in very reasonable prices.

Pros:

Clean room

Cons:

The host was too pushy about organizing activities and insisted on getting my private WhatsApp number. After I gave it to him, he called me directly, which I found quite impolite. I was also told not to communicate via WhatsApp and to use Booking.com instead, making the request for my private number unnecessary.

The Wi-Fi was unreliable throughout my stay. At one point, I found that the router had simply been unplugged. Even after plugging it back in, it continued to have problems, so I had to rely on an unstable SIM connection most of the time.

The room was also very hot and humid. Although an air conditioner was installed, I was not allowed to use it. Opening the window helped with the heat, but many mosquitoes entered the room.

Overall, the stay was quite uncomfortable.

A Warm, Welcoming Stay with Excellent Food and Hospitality
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay here. The atmosphere was warm and family-like, and the accommodation was clean and well maintained. The food was excellent and clearly prepared with a lot of care.

The hosts were extremely welcoming and attentive, and the host was also happy to accommodate special requests, which made the stay feel very personal and comfortable. They were very engaged in helping us arrange trips and activities, offering a great variety of excursions at very reasonable prices. They were always keen to make sure we had a good experience.

A lovely place with welcoming hosts, excellent food, and very good value for money. We would happily stay here again.

Cons:

At times, their enthusiasm for arranging activities was perhaps a little more than we needed, but overall we appreciated how helpful and proactive they were.

Pros:

Nous avons logé à l'étage avec vue sur le rocher du lion. Vue magnifique. Un espace terrasse avec canapé pour se reposer et une table pour prendre le petit déjeuner ou le dîner préparé par la.maitresse de maison. Surya et son épouse sont très accueillants et très arrangeants. Surya possède son tuktuk et nous a beaucoup aidé pour l'organisation du séjour et trouvé des chauffeurs pour nos trajets. Super séjour ! Je recommande vivement.

Pros:

Eine sehr gemütliche und sehr saubere Unterkunft mit toller Aussicht. Wir bekamen sehr viele hilfreiche Informationen, außerdem organisierte unser Gastgeber unsere gewünschten Touren nach Polonnaruwa und Kandy für gute Konditionen. Frühstück und Abendessen waren sehr lecker und landestypisch. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Pros:

The host Suriya and his wife are really humble, kind people who will always help you out with any questions/information.
The location is surrounded by kind of a jungle so you might have few mosquito but otherwise it is definitely value for money.

Excelentes vistas!!!
Pros:

El personal es muy amable, estuvieron muy pendientes de nosotras. Nos dejaron su cocina para hacer una tortilla de patatas para la final del mundial. Tienen un jardín fantástico con unas vistas impresionantes a Lion Rock. Las camas cuentas con mosquiteras y buen aire acondicionado. El baño es muy amplio, no tenían secador pero nos dejaron uno.

zeker aan te raden
Pros:

Zeer mooi verblijf met een zeer uitgebreid ontbijtbuffet.

Cons:

De man dringt zich nogal op als reisgeleider, anderzijds is dit ook wel handig. Alles wat hij met ons deed was leuk behalve de Herbal-garden, dit moet je zeker niet doen, dit is gemaakt om toeristen hun geld uit de zakken te schudden, ze zijn er alles behalve transparant. Voor de rest deden we er allemaal leuke dingen met de man.

Posizione bellissima e proprietario disponibile

Suriya e sua moglie ci hanno trattato molto bene dal primo momento. Lui disponibilissimo ad organizzarci le varie gite e molto oneste sui prezzi. La posizione è molto bella con vista sul lion’s rock e vicina a vari localini.
