I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were spacious and clean, they felt a bit dated and lacked some basic amenities like a fridge. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the overall service feel welcoming. The dining options were decent, but nothing stood out as particularly remarkable. The location was great, offering a nice view of the surrounding area which added to the charm, even though the pool area could use a bit more attention.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel amidst a lovely jungle setting, with spacious and rustic cabin rooms. The location provides easy access to major attractions like Sigiriya, but be prepared for some inconveniences like parking issues and poor Wi-Fi connectivity in the rooms. The food was tasty but options were limited. Overall, it was a good value for the price despite some drawbacks.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel, which is perfectly situated near Sigiriya Rock, making it the ideal base for exploring the historical site. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a very comfortable stay. The staff were exceptionally accommodating and helpful, making our experience even better. Dining was quite enjoyable, with a good range of affordable options. However, the unique bathrooms, while interesting, may not suit everyone due to their open-air design.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, enjoying a beautiful setting with lovely villas and spacious pools. My room was comfortable and clean, which made my time there really enjoyable. The staff were warm and attentive, making us feel welcomed. However, I did notice a few ants in the room, so just be mindful with snacks. All in all, I'd highly recommend this hotel for its great atmosphere and services.
