Great views, nice bar and restaurant, spacious room and most staff were incredibly friendly.

Some signs of wear and tear and you can tell the hotel has been around for a long time despite some recent renovations. There was a particular member of staff that became rather unpleasant and at times on the verge of aggressiveness when we kept politely declining their new 'romantic dinner' experience, which he brought up every breakfast and dinner during our 4-night stay at the hotel. It was a shame this one individual tainted the otherwise flawless experience provided by the rest of the staff.

Very confortable , staff very kind always at your dispositions ,beautiful view on the lion rock that value the price.Nothing to say ! I strongly recommend it!

don’t do the village sigiriya safari that the hotel propose! They are mis organized and we lost our way during the activity…in the middle of the jungle…kind of scary.Anyway , I don’t recommend it and also if you order an a la carte plate ,it takes 1hours to arrive.

We had a lovely 2 night stay. The kids loved the pool and it had a gorgeous view of Sigiriya. Rooms were spacious and beds were super comfy. There was a saxophonist one night and live music on the 2nd. A super location to visit Sigiriya and surrounding areas. The hotel looks lovely and festive with the lights. Plentiful breakfast with western and Sri Lankan choices. Thilini was an excellent GM and did everything possible to check that our stay was going well.

We had the dinner buffet on the first night but did not think it was great value for money. The breakfast hoppers and some other dishes could do with more salt and other seasonings. Other than that not much negative to say.

The pool was absolutely stunning and kept in pristine condition by the hardworking pool staff. It was a pleasure to swim and relax in such a well-maintained environment. As for the views, they were simply breathtaking and unparalleled. Whether I was in my room or exploring the property, I couldn't help but be in awe of the incredible vistas. And let's not forget about the breakfast – it was truly mouthwatering! The variety and quality of the food were outstanding, and it was the perfect way to start the day.

While the complimentary cocktails were a thoughtful gesture, it would have been appreciated if the staff had inquired about our preferences beforehand, as we don't consume alcohol. Perhaps offering a choice between alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages would be a considerate way to accommodate guests with different lifestyles. This minor suggestion aside, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were impressed by the overall attentiveness and hospitality of the staff.

The pool, view and room was very nice! It was very calm and loved being within the nature with all the monkeys etc right within all the trees and garden. The staff were very nice and friendly.

We did find it quite frustrating when asking reception about late check-out, we were told she was going to check and get back to us, but nothing happened so we went to reception again, same thing happened, it wasn’t until the 4th time we went back to reception speaking to a 4th person we were then given options of late-check out. We had two other questions during our stay and we realised that we were just being told yes etc but later that the staff weren’t understanding our questions, and had told us the wrong info. I think the English might need improving. Very friendly and smiley staff, but by just saying yes to everything we ask doesn’t help things.

The view from the pool is fantastic and the location is convenient for sightseeing in the area. The open plan lounge area is lovely and the rooms and the pool area are well maintained, clean and comfortable.

We found the staff somewhat intrusive. We often felt pestered - to the point where someone actually knocked on my bedroom door to try to get me to book for their evening meal deal. Relaxing by the pool, we were repeatedly interrupted by staff trying to sell us spa treatments or food deals. Sometimes the staff were simply rude/dismissive: when we once tried to order some food in the lounge we were told simply to go and get it ourselves from the restaurant (which was not necessary - another member of staff did eventually take our order and deliver our snacks). There wasn't an issue with ALL staff, but there was a pushy vibe to the place and it definitely made the otherwise lovely hotel less relaxing.

Really lovely staff and a good selection of food for the breakfast and dinner buffet! Loved that the hotel offered the quad biking experience and live music in the evenings as this added a special touch. Special thanks to Ajith for his advice on the surrounding area and attractions, this was very helpful as it was our first time in Sigiriya. Will definitely be coming back to stay here, the room was modern and clean and a very peaceful environment as well as the unforgettable view from the pool!

Would have been useful to have a fan in the bathroom as the room steamed up quickly once someone had a shower.

We loved our stay at Hotel Sigirya! The welcoming staff, and the grounds were beautiful, the location was great, easy tuk tuk ride to the small village where we had one of our favorite meals at one of the small little eateries. The staff by the pool were so friendly and good to our kids! The included breakfast buffet was excellent with many options. We spent two nights here, but easily could have stayed longer! We took a guided hike up Sigirya Rock which was amazing to have the guide, we learned so much. We went to Dambulla Cave which was an experience we are so grateful for! And we did an evening safari at Minneriya National Park which was incredible!

The location and view from this hotel is stunning. It’s conveniently located to visit both Sigiriya and Pidurangala. The view from the hotel and in particular the pool area is every bit as good as it looks. The staff and attentive and happy to help. The food was great - options for buffet style breakfast and evening meal with some local dishes and western options. All food was tasty and fresh. As with most places we visited in Sri Lanka the restaurant staff were super helpful - even offering us a local remedy for a troublesome mosquito bite! The rooms were nice and close to the restaurant and pool. Nice touches was the ‘last elephant sighting’ board on the hotel drive and swift drinks service around the pool. This was one of our favourite hotels we stayed in and worth the money.

To be honest there was nothing to not like here

The view of Sigiriya over the pool area was amazing. The bar was a lovely place to relax. The staff were very attentive and kind. The food was delicious. We really enjoyed our stay.

The only problem I had was how many times we were asked to give a TripAdvisor review before we left. It seems the staff individually are judged on how many reviews they get. The hotel is excellent and the staff are of a very high calibre so management shouldn’t force staff to get reviews if that’s what they are doing. It leaves a bad feeling after a great experience.
