Beautiful hotel. We were unable to book accomodation at the hotel due to it being fully booked so we visited the restaurant for dinner and returned for breakfast the next morning as we fell in love with the food, ambience, serenity and natural beauty. The manager Anand was extremely accomodating and kind. I will definitely return and hope to stay at the hotel as well. There are a few stairs to climb to enter and there may be little phone reception (which is common in the area) but its a beautiful escape

Boulder Garden. I think the only word for this hotel is extraordinary. We wouldn’t have wanted to miss this experience and enjoyed being immersed in the forest, but three nights there were definitely enough. The manager, Edward, made us feel very welcome and did everything that he could to make our stay enjoyable. We were the only guests on our second and third nights, the food was excellent, he decorated our table with flower patterns and the candlelit dining experience under the great overhanging boulder felt really special

This is a very special place to stay and if you want to see the Sinharaja forest. It has an air of mystery and the awesome rock is the highlight. There are only a few rooms, no WiFi but the remote surroundings have a great feel. We saw monkeys and a mongoose wandering around. The local food was very tasty and they tried hard with a 7 course dinner banquet but the Western food was not what we came for! The staff can not do enough as they run around trying to make a comfortable stay and we were happy with friendly vibe.

Als wir vor einigen Jahren bereits einmal hier waren, zeigten die Zimmer und die restliche Infrastruktur bereits Abnützungserscheinungen. Nach sechs Jahren wurde leider – jedenfalls ist das mein Eindruck – nichts erneuert. Die elektrischen Installationen im Zimmer waren größtenteils defekt oder beschädigt. Dass es Kakerlaken im Zimmer gibt, liegt an der Lage, und damit muss man rechnen, aber dass eine Ameisenstraße durchs Bett geht, ist dann doch eher mühsam. Das servierte Essen war leider mit Abstand das schlechteste der gesamten Reise. Ich würde das Hotel in seinem jetzigen Zustand nicht mehr empfehlen. Schade.

Stayed at the Boulder Garden for 2 nights whilst visiting Sinharaja forest. An incredible place built amongst the boulders as it's name suggests. True highlight was the amazing restaurant under the boulder over hang - as we were the only guests present we had a special 7 course meal presented to us. My wife is vegetarian and this was easily catered for. Plenty of wildlife around which was an added bonus for us. The room itself was a little rustic shall we say but we loved it, perfect for us. We would happily stay again.

During the whole stay here the people were really kind, they wanted to made our experience the best as possible. The food was great and most of all was it amazing to stay so close to nature in this hotel crafted in the rocks! Thanks to the staff and the architect who created this hotel.

Located near Sinharaja forest ideal place to stay and explore this rainforest Calm and quiet blended with nature experience like living in a cave in the forest itself. Food and service is excellent but probably under staffed. Place need a general clean up

This place is amazing and one of the highlights of our trip. The very large boulders are an integral part of the hotel (see some of the photos). There are many steps and turns along with a varied flora. This all adds to the physicality of the place. Some might not like the steps and somewhat dark rooms. But for us, these added to the experience.. The manager was attentive and the breakfast and dinner were excellent.
