Hotels near Sigiriya Airport

Pros: Engrossed in nature

Pros: Service was impeccable- rooms very comfortable

Cons: Very hot in the dining area

Pros: Exceptionally courteous staff

Pros: everything was more than what we expected...!!! awesome staff...awesome service ..!! no negatives to tell about

Pros: Without a doubt, probably the best luxury stay in Anuradhapura and it will definitely exceed your expectation. Kudos to UGA management to keeping up the standards as always. From the checking in until the departure, staff was extremely helpful and so supportive. Always tend to greet the guests with a bright smile, which is so sri lankan and pleasant thing to see. We stayed in a one bedroom pool villa, and it was ideally located and well equipped. Rooms are very spacious and clean. Food was really nice. It was more like living in a village with luxury conditions. Would definitely recommend this to anyone and obviously looking forward for another stay

Cons: The villa we stayed didn't have any good view, it was kind of isolated in the corner of the land. So if you prefer to stay in a villa with a good view, better to inform the hotel or maybe reserver a deluxe villa which has a good panoramic view to the paddy fields.

Pros: Ulagalla was our last stop for 3 nights during our trip to Sri Lanka in September ‘19. The hotel is centred around a beautiful old Sri Lankan mansion, with very tasteful Sri Lankan furniture and decor. The rooms are huge individual villas surrounding 50acres or so of paddy fields, a beautiful and isolated setting populated with peacocks and monkeys, you get bicycles for each villa to get around (or call for a buggy) as the grounds are quite expansive. The rooms are of the highest quality, super comfy beds and a private plunge pool. The main pool is beautiful and spotlessly clean, while all the staff where very friendly and professional. We visited Anuradhapura during one of our days which was worth the trip, although we organised this separately as the prices at the hotel for activities where extremely high (over double what we paid independently, with ‘Travel with Lampa’) We thoroughly recommend Ulagalla for a luxurious few days, just be prepared that the food and activities are expensive.

Cons: A bit expensive.

Pros: The staff are super nice

Cons: A bit expensive

Pros: Amazing traditional style villa with private pool, surrounded by nature, trees, and beautifully landscaped gardens and fields surrounding the property. Very peaceful, sounds of birds and nature. Amazing! Loved the staff, the breakfast and the place.

Cons: AC in the main restaurants would make it a little more comfortable with the insects, but overall I was extremely happy with everything.

Pros: A paradise on earth ... extraordinary villas lost in 58 hectares of nature. bicycles below your villa to ride around the estate. monkeys, horses, peacock freely. it's pure happiness. an old colonial house converted into a main restaurant and home so beautiful. the villas are of an extremely refined taste. we would dream of having the same house. A pure moment of happiness . One night is not enough . So hard to leave .... will come back for sure

Pros: Everything was just perfect. The villas are beautiful with private pool and all amenities. It is a dream place worth every dollar..

Pros: Heritance Kandalama is a special find. Hidden in a forest of dense green, it’s hard to believe that this huge minimalist hotel is there. The entrance to the hotel is quite magnificent and gets you excited before you’re even in there. The pool is beautiful, with a view of Lions Rock in the distance and at the right time, buffalo drinking from the lake. The room was very clean and tidy, with a more traditional feel than the minimal design of the hotel. We had a hot tub overlooking the jungle which was great. We had a few visitors swinging from our balcony, which was amazing and didn’t bother us at all - just all part of the experience.

Cons: The food was good but we would have liked more of an intimate dining experience. Due to the size of the hotel, there is a buffet and the dining rooms are huge.

Pros: A large variety of choice. Very good.

Pros: Very nice big room and bathroom very clean...

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.

Cons: The property itself is a little tired but certainly can not complain for the price

Pros: Nice pool Big rooms

Cons: Poor wifi Smoke smail during the day Lots of bugs entering the room

Pros: The manager was always organized and took care of us. He was so efficient and knowledgeable of surrounding areas in Sri Lanka. The food was delicious and the restaurant staff were friendly.

Pros: The room was spacious and comfortable. I really enjoyed the pool area and the poolside bar (the drinks were amazing). The staff (especially our tour guide AK) were amazing. He honestly made our stay in Sri Lanka so special!! The location is awesome (only a walk from the save temple) and the staff were very helpful. They do all their own tours which were soooo helpful and made our life so easy!!

Cons: Little bit on the expensive side regarding tours. They use USD in their pricing so it’s a bit confusing when your not American. I feel as though they overcharge for some tours but we are lucky we had AK as our tour guide because he made it worth it.

Pros: This place was located close to the cave temple, which was a plus point. The rooms and bathroom was clean and very spacious. Ideal for families!. The staff at the reception was pleasant and helpful. They recommended us on the best time to do the hikes for Sigiriya and Pidurangala. We decided to do a safari tour to Kaudalla National Park which was pleasant. On one of the nights there was a buffet at the restaurant and the food was delicious, highly recommended. Breakfast was good value!

Cons: The restaurant ala carte menu options could have been better. There was a small incident with the guard and being locked in on the morning of our hike. We were meant to leave at 5 am, but was locked in as the guard was not at the gatepost and I needed to go searching for someone at that hour to open the gate, and the lady couldn't find the keys as well. It is a safety hazard I believe, to be locked inside and not knowing how to unlock the gate. Thankfully everything was sorted even though it took 15-20 minutes.

Pros: This hotel is real value for money. It's location is great, the Dambulla caves are within walking distance and town is only a five minute journey away. The outside area is amazing, in particular the pool. We swam over to the bar area and had cocktails made for us by Pubudu, who is a fantastic cocktail maker and is keen to practise his English (which we equally enjoyed). We are at the hotel, which was a buffet of different foods, and thoroughly enjoyed it all :) The staff were very helpful and friendly. The security guard helped us to get a bus the following morning from opposite the hotel.

Cons: The balcony area isn't huge however, we didn't have any need for using it so it didn't matter.

Pros: Staff were very welcoming and made us feel at home especially as we had only just arrived in Sri Lanka. Their driver Saman was also great, sharing local knowledge and recommendations throughout our stay. Good hotel to start or end your trip.

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: Booked this place last minute but it did not disappoint! The room is huge and comfortable! The staff help us out with our tuk tuk as we were driving one across Sri Lanka. Everyone is so friendly

Cons: The only bad thing is the mosquitoes but it's okay inside the room

Pros: Staff

Cons: Cleanliness of garden.

Pros: Very good place to spend a few nights. Excellent location near Dambulla to visit de caves and also to go to Sigiriya and the ancient cities. We rented a tour and we are very satisfies.

Also the food is very high quality with a nice mix, The staff are exceptionally kind, nice and polite; a pleasure to know. The location was nice and I've enjoyed great walks every day.

Cons: The takeaway dinner was hopeless and it was a real waste of money and some of us could not eat the dinner at all as that was tasteless with too much salt.

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.

Cons: The rooms were oldfashioned and not clean. The beds were old and did not lie well. The price of the rooms dit not match its quality. The proces of de meao’s dis not match its quality and not Sri Lankian food prices.
