In the middle of the forest, this is a hidden little gem, with lovely spacious clean rooms, exceptionally friendly staff, and a luxury lodge like feel! It was out of season, so the hotel was quite quiet, and we had the pool to ourselves.

Super helpful staff. Our toddler enjoyed exploring the grounds. Restaurant served nice food. Rooms are a bit basic relative to the price. We were unfortunately visiting during Christmas, and the hotel organised a very loud party, which made it hard to sleep! Agreed to lower the volume after many requests ##### Maayan Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Chelvy 9 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities good ##### Chelvy ### 4/10 Poor #### Dominic 25 Dec 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Apparently they just opened after being closed for 3 years. They gave us at first a dirty stinky room after a big scene and complaint we finally got the room we booked. Staff barely speaks English. Food choice is very limited, buffet for SriLankan standard is very poor. They tried to force us a Xmas dinner at 40 dollar a person but quality of kitchen is poor, also for the breakfast, no yoghurts. The road towards the place is a disaster and very difficult to reach. Overall poor experience for a so called luxury hotel. ##### Dominic Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Elizabeth 26 Dec 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities This property is great if you’re looking to hole up in your room. But if you’re looking to explore Sigiriya Rock and/or safari, it’s too remote of a location off a winding side road and not very convenient. If that was the only issue, I’d be ok with it, but we had multiple issues during our stay: (1) AC in our room was broken and could not regulate the temp, so it was either very cold OR lukewarm; (2) so we kept the AC on, but realized there were no blankets, only a single sheet, which meant you were freezing by dawn; (3) AVOID A LA CARTE DINING at the restaurant - while the breakfast buffet is lovely, the dining staff are unable to follow simple instructions when guests are ordering meals off the menu and not per the buffet. For example, I ordered spaghetti with tomato sauce (spaghetti and penne were the pasta options), and they brought my daughter’s meal as a penne pasta… TWICE. So we had to wait. I ordered a beef burger with cheese (chicken and beef are options). They brought a CHICKEN cheese burger. At this point, 45 minutes had passed and they had only gotten my husband’s club sandwich correct, so I cancelled my meal (which I was still waiting for) and our dessert. At that point, the dining staff started arguing with me that I had definitely ordered chicken, suggesting I didn’t know what I ordered, which is insane. I don’t eat chicken burgers and never ordered it. You know something is wrong when the dining staff start arguing with you as to what YOU ordered. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Piyush 25 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The route to reaach the property was too off. Consider last 500 m as driving on rocks. Property should try tp fix it as they will be major beneficiary. Staff tried to help - 1 guy was good at english, others below average - The confusion went to extent that the lady at counter said that pinnavella elephant orphanage is only 4 km away, which is not true. I only contacted this guy at reception for everything post this incident. Overall , staff did try to help for everything they could do in their limits. ##### Piyush Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 23 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities You have to drive down a remote, drive road to arrive at the hotel but once you do paradise emerges. It is so beautiful and serene. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Adam 24 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice clean, large and comfortable rooms. We only stayed here for a night as we were in the area to see the Sigiriya Rock Fortress and Pidurangala Rock. It's not too far from either. Rooms were clean and spacious. Nice hotel grounds (they look nicer at night). Nice pool area. The restaurant and buffet breakfast are pretty average as is the wifi strength in the room we were in (231). The dirt road is a little bumpy heading in towards the hotel off the main road. Overall though we had no major issues and our stay was comfortable. ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Rajiv 16 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### A good hotel in the middle of a forest A good resort in the middle of the forest. The positives were: Forest experience, Sounds of birds, running stream, etc. Also a decent length swimming pool, good for laps Negative mainly was to do with the fact that you cannot open your windows at night for fear of wildlife coming in. Hotel must fit wire meshes. Also animals running on the tinned roof creating sudden noises and waking you up in the middle of the night. Service was so so, in part because most staff don't speak English fluently. I must make special mention of the front office receptionist Sendali who spoke fluent English, had a very pleasing and customer friendly approach and helped make my stay comfortable on a number of fronts. Thank you Sendali for saving the day! ##### Rajiv Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### windy, noosa australia 10 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Was last minute decision to spend extra day in are What an absolute treat loved the setting spent a lot of my time in pool @ poolside enjoyed all meals variety and presentation and what a lovely bunch of staff ##### windy Stayed 1 night in Apr 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Britt 23 Apr 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### Hotell midt i jungelen. Overnattet kun en natt. Veldig god service i resepsjonen, bra bar og restaurang. Dårlig adkomstvei. ##### Britt ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 1 Jan 2017 Disliked: Staff & service #### Ok hotel. Bad service. Umm...no-so-pleasant experience. they refused to provide driver accommodation for us. No ome helped us with luggages. The walk from lobby to room was far and we had had to hand carry our suitcases (road is too rocky to roll suitcases). The lady who led us to the room didn't care and walk super fast. She also refused to put us (two rooms) on the same building, while both rooms underneath our rooms were empty. Rooms are big, but the upkeep is so so. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Gavin 13 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Quality, Service & Value Very good hotel with excellent staff that were so friendly and made us feel very welcome. Although the property is not as close to Sigiryia as others it looked better than some of the closer ones we passed. We rented bikes from the hotel, which weren't great quality but got us to Sigiryia! We also did a great Safari to Minneryia through the hotel which was a highlight. Overall very good quality and value for money. ##### Gavin ### 8/10 Good #### 熊熊～！, 名古屋 10 Aug 2016 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 文化三角地帯のベースキャンプとなる森の中のリゾート 施設や部屋は新しくて綺麗。 食事はカレーが旨かった。ただ蠅対策を何とかして欲しい。 プールサイドに傘が欲しい。昼間は暑い筈。 シーギリヤロックへ一本道。但し途中まで未舗装の細い道。 アヌラーダプラまで１時間。 ダンブッラまで３０分。 ベースキャンプにもってこい。 ##### 熊熊～！ ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer 10 Nov 2025 ##### Jennifer Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sunjum 28 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Sunjum Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashanthi 7 Aug 2024 ##### Ashanthi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carl 8 Mar 2024 ##### Carl Stayed 13 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Fortress Resort & Spa Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-The-Golden-Crown-Hotel.h19397949.Hotel-Information) > > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritance Kandalama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandalama-Hotels-Heritance-Kandalama.h1526814.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Ridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Golden-Ridge-Hotel.h29024680.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [W15 Weligama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-W15.h11560777.Hotel-Information) > > [Water Garden Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kimbissa-Hotels-Water-Garden-Sigiriya.h15402610.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Earl's Regency](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Earls-Regency.h1523191.Hotel-Information) > > [Fox Kandy by Fox Resorts- Luxury in the Mist](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-FOX-Resorts-Kandy.h17399100.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Hills Kandy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Amaya-Hills-Kandy.h1700850.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Lake Dambulla](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandalama-Hotels-Amaya-Lake-Dambulla.h2222404.Hotel-Information) ---
