"Beautiful setting. I was a bit confused about advertised lake who is actually not on the property and holds little for guests. Pool area was wonderful very quiet with trees and birds. Heinz was most helpful in sugges outings and arranging driver. A few niggles: Breakfasts like all in Sri Lanka could use some tweaking with toast presented first to go cold and items not offered but available such as tomatoes or bacon: readily provided when requested. Spider life is rampant so staff could pay more...

"Sad case of lovely hotel falling into decay after Covid. We four were only guests for our two day stay. Staff could not do enough but could not find booking, pool very neglected and rooms although enormous could do with a large amount of tender loving care. One I hope succeeds in the future."

"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...
