My friend and I spent a night here and we got to meet the owner, who lives in London. We were treated very well and the staff was very accommodating and took great care of us. The room was comfortable as well. It is located in a very remote area, but there are some restaurants within walking distance and it is very close to Sigiriya Rock.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Terrible experience and we would not recommend. Made a reservation for three adults and two rooms all confirmed and pay for in advance. Only to arrive to be told that there was only one room available. Three adults could not stay in one room so we were left with no where to stay which is totally unacceptable. No explanation of why this was all we can think is that they resold our room. We were then left trying to find somewhere else to stay which was very stressful situation to put us in.

Hôtel sympa pour une nuit ou deux. Plein de restos à proximité et le Lion’s rock est facilement accessible à pieds. L’eau chaude fonctionne un coup sur deux et coupures d’électricité fréquentes, mais comme un peu partout au Sri Lanka. Bon petit dej !

The staff were all very helpful, and we felt very welcome. They organise a safari trip and went out of their way to help. Breakfast was amazing The hotel was undergoing some minor restoration but this did not interfere with our stay.

Great stay, totally recommend!

We stayed here for 2 nights and the staff was so sweet and they were so helpful. The breakfast was delicious and had very big portions (a mix between local and western). They were quick to help us with umbrellas, and lights, and to organize travel/tours.

Hotel was close to Sigiriya Rock, the main reason for me to stay at the hotel. Fairly good for a night stay with decent breakfast of our choice. Staff very helpful and kind. Did not provide driver accommodation, as mentioned on the website and had to pay for it, which I was not happy with. Overall an average place to stay overnight for visiting the Rock.
