Hotels near Sigiriya airport

Pros: Wonderful design of building, wonderful location with views over a lake and a forest. Staff were so friendly and helpful.

Pros: The setting of the hotel is magnificent as is the hotel itself. The rooms are great. The staff were excellent. The breakfast first rate. I wished we could have stayed longer.

Pros: Location, view and architecture are so great! They were so many viewpoints, everywhere was great!

Cons: Facilities were a little old. Amenities were not enough, so we had to ask staff to take them.

Pros: The facilities were excellent and we liked the separate dining room where one could have a more elegant dining experience than joining the masses having the buffet - it was Christmas holiday time and the hotel was full.

Cons: The first room we were given was small and overlooked the back of the property - it did not seem to be value for the money we had paid and not one we would have wanted to stay in. It had two beds pushed together rather than one king-sized bed we had booked. After the first night the manager did move us to a larger and much nicer room overlooking the lake and with a king-size bed which we were very happy with.

Pros: What an incredible luxury hotel with stunning architecture. We had a lovely big room with a view over the lake and monkeys playing on the balcony (so keep the doors shut!). The hotel was well equipped with gym, swimming pools bars and restaurants. Once you find the route, there is lovely walk along the lakefront and great bird watching.

Cons: The size of the hotel meant it felt a bit anonymous, you are also miles from anywhere so end up eating in the hotel. Breakfast buffet was great but evening meal only OK. The surroundings were stunning, but a challenge to find the route for a walk round the grounds.

Pros: Wonderfully attentive staff and superb food with massive choice.

Cons: Quite expensive, but we knew that before going!

Pros: Like the big room and deco on the bed. The bathroom was amazing. Also the infinity swimming pool with the view

Pros: Nice setting with two pools. safari themed hotel with friendly helpful staff. Great range of drinks at the bar and very nice food. breakfast was particularly good.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Price

Pros: The room was spacious and very clean, a lot of facilities and a big and clean swimming pool to relax after a busy day of sightseeing around.

Cons: The hotel was very empty during our stay and we found that staff was trying way too hard to please us, sometimes it felt really awkward to have someone checking every five minutes if everything is ok or asking the same another colleague had just asked. The hotel is quite far form the center so you will need to take a tuktuk.

Pros: Room was clean.

Cons: Common balcony, no beautiful view. At least unable to see outside ( garden view) through the window as it opens towards the common balcony. No shampoo & conditioner were available. No extra pillows just 2 pillows & they were not even comfortable. Switch board has fixed to mid of the bed frame. Had to wait long time to receive an iron. Seems like they have only one iron as they were so hurried to get it back soon. Reception staff not even courteous.

Pros: Very polite, nice and helpful hotel staff. Hotel offered touristic information and trips to popular places. Despite the reduction of staff (only skeleton crew due to COVID), the hotel offered cleaning services, a swimming pool for free and access to restaurant. Hotel organized for us comfortable transport to Colombo airport.

Pros: Everything was amazing ! Food, staff , location, price , excursions. Really loved the pool bar and cocktails!

Cons: Nothing !

Pros: Staff was wonderful and welcoming

Cons: Old rooms and old style bathroom. The shower didn't close properly as well as the bathroom door. There was lots of dust and ants but we only stayed 2 nights. The swimming pool is also old and far away from the posted pictures. Tiles are broken and everything looked old and dirty. The staff is really super nice which makes thing difficult if you want make a complain. Great potential hotel but needs a bit of renovation and good clean

Pros: Very well run resort in the jungles south of Dambulla. Amazing and attentive staff, except at the pool bar.

Cons: The music at the pool bar is always the same. They have 4 big music files on a USB stick. Somebody get them Spotify and then kill the bass that drums through the entire resort :-)

Pros: The staff is just fantastic, very friendly and helpful. We were in the hotel at the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, and they continued working and helping us out with tours and accommodation.

Cons: Dinner was quite expensive for what you received

Pros: Two clients of my company came to visit Sri Lanka, and I choose this place as a "base" to visit central SL. We had a perfect stay. The last day there was a problem with the menu and the food we ordered, and my clients got quite angry, I don't know exactly what happened, but the hotel service (I think it was the owner, and her friend, the girls from the Czech Republic, a greeting from here) solved it without any further inconvenience. For my part it was everything perfect, they are lovely people! I recommend the site, it was great!

Pros: Damian the host was very helpful and made our stay as comfortable as possible. We stayed in a newer room. The chef / head of restaurant was also extremely friendly. The staff here really made us feel welcome and were interested in their guests. Very leafy & green and the pool is very inviting. Pool bar will help create a social atmosphere.

Cons: I would suggest putting a mosquito net above the bed as there were many bugs flying around the room and also many migies or flies on our bed. Also perhaps a TV in the room as there is not much to do in Dambulla in the evenings so after a day trip it would be nice to have a tv. I think the older rooms had one.

Pros: Pool bar was so awesome

Cons: foods was marvelous

Pros: My girlfriend and I spent 4 days at sundaras. For £33 a night you cant go wrong. For sri lanka i found this to be one of the better hotels we stayed in. Clean, spacious hotel in a decent location. 4 nights is probably too long to stay in Dambula for travellers tho. The pool is a class place to chill and the pool bar is a lovely feature. The pool is surrounded by trees which i found very re flective of the sri lankan jungles. If the pool isnt enough for you, you can also relax by getting a message. We got a full body message on the day we landed and it was the best! A full body message only cost us 21USD The receptionist siddu was a gentle man, very helpful and no request was too much. He let us check in early after travelling over 24 hrs and even upgraded our room. We organised to visit Pidurangala and Sigiria rock with the hotel. I woukd highly recommend doing these tours with the hotel. Our tour guid was a lovely man, took us for a nice authentic breakfast at a local family's home and showed us a nice view of both Piduranagala and sigiria.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The best thing about this place is of course the pool, it's great to relax there after a day of hiking. Services are good. The room is very nice and spacious and the balcony is lovely too. They organize trips to Sigiriya and Pidurangala and the man who took us on the trip was extremely friendly and nice, we really liked the time we spent with him. Thanks!

Pros: Very close from golden temple. They kept our luggage after check out so we could visit sigiriya. Breakfast was very nice.

Cons: We had dinner at the place and the price was more than double than everywhere else around but we got there late so no alternatives. Mosquito net was dirty and small for the bed. WiFi never worked in 3 days. The streets around the guest house seem a bit sketchy.

Pros: Hospitality, best service, suitable location, fresh weather and relaxing, clean room, so caring, reasonable tariffs n value of money, delicious homemade meals ....WOOOWWW...feels like home and family.loving person. Overall ......BRAVO..... Thanks.

Cons: ZERO........PERFECT.would love to visit again.

Pros: Sunflower is easy walking distance from Smiling Buddha and the Buddha caves.

Cons: My room 06 was not secure. There were many other available rooms but they gave me the worst. There was one lock and two sliding bolts on the door but the windows at floor level next to the door didn't have any locks and looked as though they had previously been pried open. There are no security bars on the windows so there is no ventilation. The rooms all face the afternoon hot sun so they are uncomfortable even late at night. I had arrangements with the manager for dinner at 7 and told her what I liked. At 7:15 the dining room was dark. I called out and no one was around. I had to walk a km in the dark to find food. When I returned at 8:30 they told me dinner was ready. There was only one other couple, and they said dinner was late every night. Had I known it would be late I would have eaten lunch. This establishment runs on its own clock.

Pros: A beautiful place. The big clean room and bathroom. Friendly family , tasty breakfasts and dinners, a good location. It's easy to get to the Golden cave temple or only 2km to the bus station where you can get the bus to Sigiriya.

Cons: The room was nice but we had NO water and NO electricity... when we complained about that they just decided to disconnect the WiFi as a punishment.... same on the morning while we had the breakfast. She first gave us the bill while we had the breakfast ( what is anti-commercial) and when we discussed the price because of the lack of electricity and water, she just took the internet box like if we were her children and hadn’t done our homework!!!! And charged us for the 2 lemons they picked in the garden and the garlic they « gave » to us the day before... Never see that before....! I highly NOT recommend this place

Pros: Everything was great, Good wifi, comfortable bed, it's 5 minutes away for Cave Temple, Breakfast was homemade and very generous portions. Staff so friendly and very helpful to us. They organised everything we wanted to see and do. We just had to show up on time. Super place.I highly recommended Sunflower Inn.

Pros: the rest

Cons: lot of mosquitoes

Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful I selected Sri Lankan food, which was quite ok. Location excellent for watching international cricket at the Dambulla stadium. 5 minutes by auto rickshaw Also, very close to the cave temple.

Cons: There were two main problems, both to do with the room. There were a lot of mosquitoes in the room, also the electricity supply to the property was very erratic so the air conditioner barely had any effect and often stopped for long periods of time.. For these two reasons I found it impossible to get a good night's sleep on either night of my stay.

Pros: The person working at the front desk was extremely helpful. I was feeling sick and he even gave me some local medicine. It worked, thank you!
