We highly recommend every should stay at the Sigiriya Cottage!
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay at Sigiriya Cottage! Beautiful accomodation. Very clean. Great food and exceptional service. We cannot thank Sanji and his team enough! Sanji assisted us in booking our tours and ensured we had everything we needed for a great stay. Due to impacted travel we ended up arriving to the accomodation at 630am instead of check in at 2pm, Sanji was very accomodating and assisted us with an early check in and looked after us had a long travel day to get there.

We would also like to thank our safari jeep driver Thillani - he was very knowledgeable and a great driver.

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was fantastic

L’emplacement est top, au calme et proche de Lions Rock. Des petits restaurants proche de l’hôtel et tres bonne nourriture sur place. Spécial dédicace au PDJ exceptionnel. Personnel aux petits soins.

Quiet slice of paradise, comfortable accommodation and the best staff. Would highly recommend staying here if you visit
Pros:

Perfect location, amenities were great and the staff were very friendly and knowledgable. Walkable to the ‘rocks’. Hired bikes to cycle the surrounding village which was fun. The team helped us to plan our time in Sigiriya and onwards journey. They were also very accompanying after an extremely long flight delay. Sanji was the kindest and most helpful host. Thank you 🙏🏻

Pros:

Un petit "hâvre de paix". Les chambres sont grandes et confortables, le personnel adorable, plein de choix au restaurant où nous avons très bien mangé. L hôte parle un français impeccable et répond a toutes vos demandes, il a même proposé et emmené notre fils chez le médecin. Un grand merci pour le séjour.

Heerlijk verblijf!
Pros:

Heerlijke rustige plek met een fijn zwembad.
De eigenaar heeft allemaal goede tips wat wanneer te gaan doen in de omgeving.
De Safari gids die hij geregeld had wist veel te vertellen en alle dieren te spotten. Ook bleef hij weg van de drukte wat de ervaring nog mooier maakte.
Heerlijk lokaal ontbijt, heel verzorgd.
Vriendelijke mensen die graag voor je klaar staan.

Peaceful stay
Pros:

Very kind and helpful owner. A peaceful place within walking distance of the Lion Rock. Lovely garden. The hotel provides bikes free of charge, which gave me the chance to explore paddy fields, lakes, and nature in the area. Highly recommend.

A wonderful stay with exceptional hospitality, great location, helpful support throughout our visit
Pros:

Our experience at the accommodation was outstanding. The host demonstrated remarkable courtesy and professionalism, providing us with valuable guidance that greatly enhanced our sightseeing plans.
The property offered excellent facilities and a very convenient location. We highly recommend this place for anyone seeking a comfortable and well-supported stay.

Cons:

The host kindly helped us arrange bicycles and even had them delivered to the property, which we truly appreciated. However, the bikes were not in the best condition when they arrived. It would be great if they could be checked beforehand to ensure they are safe and fully functional for future guests.
