"Have to put a scanning system to the guest security,Zero at present,They don’t answer when asked,Hotel or the company AitkinSpence is only after your money,This is from my personal experience,After staying there during the Arugambai terrorist threat and the US,UK and few other countries issued a warning to their citizens,We are from the UK,We were concerned about it they just ignored us,Anyone could have carried explosive inside,Because none of my luggage was scanned.I have asked the hotel and the company for an explanation still no answer, my stay was on 23rd to 25th of oct 2024,,I would tell anyone wants to stay here to check this first.I am attaching few pictures of concern,I did warn them that If there is no response from them my review will be the truth,Still they are not bothered,I have more to write but I will stop here."

"The environment is really nice, the facilities are old and not very clean. The service is OK. There are 2 swimming pools, and I recommend the one inside the hotel. There are little monkeys, squirrels, and little lizards. The food is average, but the price is OK."

Sigiriya Kingdom Resort

Sigiriya Kingdom Resort ★★★★

📍 VM25+V48, Rathmalgahaela road Vihara Junction, Dambulla

"We stayed here for 2 nights on our trip. The location was okay, the pool was beautiful but the rooms were not the best. They didn’t smell great & our bathroom was not nice.. shower needed a lot of tlc. We only had 2 pillows between 3 for the first night because we asked for one but after a certain time the staff just disappeared.. The food wasn’t good but wasn’t the worst. Overall, I believe there are better value for money hotels around however, some people in the group did have a much nicer room so I’d ask for a recently renovated one if you do stay here."

SigiriyaJungles Resort & Spa
8.8 (73 reviews)

SigiriyaJungles Resort & Spa ★★★★★

📍 Audangawa Road, Kimbissa, Avudangawa

"The location of the hotel is relatively remote, but it feels like a manor inside. The guest room is similar to a single-story villa with a large bed and a small bed, and can accommodate three adults. The room hygiene is good, but the floor drain next to the toilet tends to accumulate water. The mattress of the large bed is moderately soft and hard, and the floor-to-ceiling doors and windows face the garden, giving you a first-class view. Although no monkeys were seen knocking on the door, various warblers and birds were constantly chirping, and the ecological and natural environment was well protected. The breakfast was rich in variety, not just curry food, but also a lot of bacon and oatmeal, as well as watermelon, papaya and other tropical items. fruit. A satisfactory stay"

Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

"We are writing this while sitting at the beautiful breakfast lounge - the breeze, the view and the fantastic service from Ravindra. Sri Lanka never disappoints and Vil Uyana is a new gem we have discovered that we will love coming back to. The idea of having one host taking care of your entire stay is a great idea, and that was Ravindra for us, calm, gentle and ever so helpful. Thank you for making our stay great. The rooms are great, and the room location is pristine. Loved our stay, the food , the service and overall hospitality"

"Whereas the hotel grounds and rooms need a little loving care, the staff were out of this world -- so thoughtful and accommodating and wanting to please. The food was very good; enjoyed the cook's attention to our requests. Nice hotel at mid-range, good location and friendly ambiance."

Amaara Forest Hotel Sigiriya Hotels in Dambulla

Amaara Forest Hotel Sigiriya

"A place of real tranquility, where one feels at peace as soon as you enter this gem of a property consisting of 44 cabanas to suit one's needs. These are well appointed, spacious & spotless with all amenities in place. From the minute we arrived at Amaara Forest, the welcome we received and how our every need was catered to until we departed, was truly exceptional. The staff believe in traditional Sri Lankan hospitality with their welcoming smile & warmth. For us it was a getaway with buddies to unwind and enjoy serenity in the midst of a forest, which we did to the maximum. For those who love & value nature, this is a "hidden gem" !! The attractions or our heritages such as the majestic, Sigiriya is a short drive and so are the mature reserves that include the famous Minneriya Nature Reserve, where elephants can be observed in their natural habitat. When we left Amaara Forest, after a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast at their famous "Tree Tops" which is built halfway up a tree on a sturdy platform, we were serenaded by a flutist as well. We soaked in the peace and the sounds of nature with gratitude for having stayed in a wonderous place. We left with the promise of returning for a similar experience in the neat future. My kudos to the entire management & staff for our wonderful stay. Wishing this property the very best in the future too. Theruwan saranai to all. Rukshi."

Serenity Sigiri Resort Hotels in Dambulla

Serenity Sigiri Resort

"One of the best hotels I lived in Sri Lanka, running by a local family. They are very nice and hospitable and even provided very delicious local breakfast with wild honey and welcome coconut water. The room was a quite big with high ceiling, clean and all the stuffs were available. The hotel is in the closest location to climb the rock mountain called Pidurangala to view panorama view of Sigiri and sunrise and sunset and very close to Sigiri Lion Rock as well. The hotel can provide car and jeep services. Jeep safari to see a herd and other wild animals were quite an experience to feel the wilderness and nature. This hotel is 100% recommended when you are in Sigiriya. If you need a car service for city to city travel, here is the service provider, called Danu and his contact number is (0774) 642 805. He is a nice and humble guy with certified local guide. We got his service from Sigiriya to Kandy to Yalla to Colombo, the trip went very smooth and we are happy that we covered all the attractions places with his assistance. Highly recommended!!"

Eden Grand ★★★
"The service attitude of the store is very good (it should be a store independently operated by the owner). After arriving at the store, I was given a glass of watermelon juice (free). There is a small terrace outside the room. The most abundant thing is breakfast. The photos and scenes on Ctrip have a relatively high degree of restoration."

Amaya Lake Dambulla ★★★★★
"It was such a wonderful hotel that I would like to stay there again. The grounds were spacious, with cottages surrounded by greenery, and there were monkeys and birds. It's along the lake, so the scenery is beautiful. The bathtub valve was broken so the hot water ran out quickly, the food took a long time to arrive, and there was not much variety in breakfast, but they prepared lunch boxes for us early in the morning when we asked, which was very helpful, and the staff at the front desk and in the restaurant were very kind. There was also a group of Japanese guests there."

"The hotel is so original. You can even see frogs in the room. If you are afraid of bugs, be careful. I am a bit afraid of bugs anyway. The location is relatively deep. There is no place to eat around, so you can only eat at the hotel buffet."

"This hotel was terrible. The rooms were damp and a bit old. Not only that, but every night the shower water would turn cold halfway through. I contacted the hotel twice to have it fixed, and they said it was fixed, but the problem persisted. I strongly advise against staying there. It was awful."

"I had the pleasure of staying at Pelwehera village resort and I must say—it exceeded all my expectations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the rooms were spacious and clean, and the service was outstanding. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared about my comfort. The location is perfect—close to pool and the amenities made my stay feel extra special.
