"If you’re looking for a place that goes beyond the usual hotel experience, Cloudz Sigiriya is a gem. After a long day exploring Lion Rock, we came back to a spotless, comfortable room and a peaceful atmosphere that felt like staying with friends - just friends who happen to offer excellent room service in the middle of the jungle. One of the absolute highlights was the communal dinner: fresh, authentic, and the perfect way to unwind while listening to the sounds of nature. For couples who love...

Top Polonnaruwa Hotel Reviews

Pothana Village

10/10 Excellent

"Luxurious hotel, great food, wonderful location in nature and the staff are so warm and friendly. Highly recommended to stay here."

Seyara Holiday Resort

2/10 Terrible

"I’m sure this review will contradict those previous, but basically I did not like this place straight from arrival. The manager/desk man was condescending, we had to wait for our room, the room was basic in the extreme, poor quality bedding and towels, an ancient bed and threadbare mattress. The room had thin walls with a lot of noise from next door. Ordering food had a 45 min delay, although the (very basic) eating area was deserted. We did not stay at this hotel, we moved elsewhere locally, same price, much better. "
