We were a family of 5 and stayed 2 nights at this hotel; Pros: Lovely spa, we all had a really relaxing Balinese massage with Maha (she is from Bali and her contract with this hotel ends in December). Be sure to ask for Maha if you have a massage here. Lovely grounds Close to the lions Rock Excellent view of the Lions Rock from the pool Lovely pool and attentive pool guy Helpful staff (apart from the staff at the buffet breakfast) Cons; Tired rooms We are vegan and vegetarian and this is the most disappointing buffet breakfast we have ever had in Asia. The taste of food was average, labelling of food was incorrect, no fresh juice provided in a country that produces ample fresh fruits. No non dairy alternative milk offered for tea or coffee. Tables not set up for dining half of the time. Staff in the restaurant did not care for our requests. I have stayed in hotels where chefs have gone out of their way to cater for vegan and vegetarian diets. If you are vegan or vegetarian don’t bother eating here. One of our rooms had a leak in the bathroom which they were aware of 4 days prior to our arrival however they did not inform us about this. We had to stay in this room on our first night as they were fully booked. We were transferred to another room on the following day and it was a nice room. I would have appreciated being informed of the bathroom issue in advance giving me a choice to book elsewhere. Instead I had to put up with a leaking bathroom once checked in.

We only stayed for 1 night but would definitely recommend the Hotel Sigiriya and would stay here again should the opportunity present itself. Nice, clean and spacious rooms. The staff, especially at the restaurant (we had a bbq dinner buffet and breakfast buffet the next morning) were amazing. So friendly, courteous and helpful. The pool and pool views of the rock were great too!

Lovely hotel and nice staff. We didn’t receive any toiletries for our washroom which was a bit annoying and the lady at the front desk told us she couldn’t break a large bill when we first arrived. Otherwise, hotel is nice, breakfast has a lot of options and variety and is tasty. Would recommend if you’re looking for a sanctuary/relaxation vibe.

The best feature is the view of Sigiriya Rock from the pool. The rooms are a decent size and have good shower pressure. There is also a hairdryer and mirror outside of the bathroom area, handy, as one can finish getting ready while the other showers. On the downside, not all plug sockets worked and the window didn’t close properly. Also, we were told that the evening meal was buffet only. At 4500 lkr, it's quite expensive. We later found out there was an al a carte menu. If it hadn't been for the heavy rain though, we would have walked to one of the nearby restaurants. Not a bad place overalll for one night

Worth a stay!
A lovely setting close to Lions Rock, great view of the rock from the pool. You can walk to the rock but takes approx 30mins. The room itself was lovely, and staff were excellent. The food was delicious! Only downside was that we thought the pool wasn’t the cleanest, especially the children’s pool - a lot of debris from surrounding trees, and you could tell that the pool hadn’t been cleaned properly in a while (slippery floor from suncream etc.)

This is a nice little hotel if you are making Sigiriya your base. The staff were incredibly nice (I’m a younger-looking, white American woman traveling solo). The breakfast was good and the dinner buffet was fine though I wish I’d gone into town more for dinner. There’s not much happening in for lunch, so definitely go into town if you are still around. The hotel arranged a driver for a day trip to Kandy (he wasn’t great but the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic was worth it) and a keep and driver to see elephants in Eco Park. The room was clean and spacious and the bed was comfortable. The water temp in the shower was erratic. It would be okay for 20 seconds or so, then scalding, then good again. To be more eco friendly, have glass bottles of shampoo etc instead of mini plastic and have a water filter instead of bottled water. Overall, a great base for my first trip to Sri Lanka.

We loved our stay at Hotel Sigiriya - despite the rain. The communal area is a great space and we spent many hours there sheltering from the downpours. The staff were very friendly and looked after us. The breakfast buffet was great and there was a good selection of food. The room was plenty big enough for three adults. We loved the view of Sigiriya Rock. I would recommend this hotel!

Great view in excellent location
This hotel has gorgeous views from the pool and lovely, tropical gardens. The room was comfortable and quiet, nothing fancy, but very nice. The hotel is also in a convenient location - you can easily walk to Sigiriya Rock from there, which is great. We also enjoyed having lunch by the pool and enjoying the view of the Rock as well as the monkeys in the trees. The restaurant was also fine, not amazing, but generally good.

Just avergae. Very Overpriced food and drinks
Was not really impressed. I would have been more annoyed if I had paid the full (peak season) price. Even at low season prices, it felt overpriced for the facilities and location. It's not very close to the village. So at night its pitch dark and maybe a little dangerous for walking (cars etc coming past or walking alone), so need to get a tuk tuk ideally. Apart from the included breakfast, we didnt eat at the hotel. The dinner buffet was 2500LKR per person, which is quite crazy for Sri Lanka. Not too far towards the village, you can get good food for 400lkr pp, or less. Also the drinks are expensive. 800 for a beer. Its too much for a hotel that is not close to 4 or 5 star. The pool is smaller than the pictures show (one is a shallow kids pool) and it's too small of an pool area (beds etc) for the amount of guests at the hotel. The view of the rock is the only appeal for me, but the rest of the hotel and rooms are just average and overpriced. No plug sockets next to the bed, or really many plug sockets at all in the room. So its hard to charge your electronics. Bathroom is small and shower is not very good. Polite and friendly staff. I think there is better value elsewhere, in a better spot, with cheaper food and beverages

perfect location
Absolutely fantastic hotel! Our room was spacious with a huge queen bed, patio doors opening up onto a little terrace, a fully stocked bathroom with massive powerful shower, a safe, A/C and a fan, as well as a mini-fridge. Free water bottles were provided in the room. We didn’t have time to take part in any of the hotel activities, but they offered guided nature walks as well as a spa. The view from the pool has got to best one of the best views of Sigiriyia from any of the hotels – the photos on tripadvisor don’t do it any justice! The hotel also set up a telescope in the reception area so you can have a look through there and watch everyone on top of the rock! We went early September so the hotel was pretty quiet; there aren’t many places nearby to eat so we ate both nights at the hotels; on the first night they put on a buffet that had a really great mix of European food and Sri Lankan staples, for both starters, main and pudding. It was a great opportunity to try some Sri Lankan food without being overwhelmed by the many options! The second night the hotel was emptier than the first so we were served from an A La Carte menu on tables set up around the pool. Was a very nice setting and the menu still offered a good degree of variety. Both nights weren’t ‘cheap’ by Sri Lankan standards, but still much better value for money than compared to UK prices. Side note – if you have a private driver, this hotel offers them free accommodation on site
