Beds comfortable, walking distance of shops and restaurants. Breakfast was good and cheap. Disappointed at end as thought he tried to charge us too much for transportation to next accommodation but eventually agreed on a price

Perfect location when visiting Sigiriya Rock Fortress. The staff were so lovely, friendly and helpful. I stayed a few days, so after Sigiriya rock they recommend other locations I could visit and which buses to get. The food for dinner was amazing and such huge portions!!! 😅 The room was great, good ac, and a mosquito net over the comfy bed.

シーギリヤロックにいくために、利用させてもらいました。 チェックイン時にパスポートもいらなかったので、スムーズでした。 夕方に女性の方が、ご飯いるか？明日の朝ご飯いるかと聞いてくれました。 私は断食中なんで遠慮しました。 部屋は少しだけ虫がいましたが、全然大したことはないです。 不満があるとすれば、シャワールーム内が臭かったですね。 まぁー国によっては普通なのかもですが・・・ あとは、シャワーは水しか使い方がわかりませんでした。 もう一つついていて、多分お湯が出るんだと思いましたが、 使い方が不明でした。

We arrived at 7pm and they had no idea about our booking. Lucky I had called earlier and the owner put us in a room within the home stay. It was a very awkward encounter and because it was late at night we had no where else to go so we stayed....The room was clean but the bathroom had a foul smell. Next day we used their tuk tuk driver to go into town for breakfast and he was awesome! Very cheeky but kind(he made our trip) We climbed the rock and went on safari which was awesome. Second night we were moved from the home stay to another room seperate. to start with we were hesitant as you are literally in the jungle but the room was brand new with new bathroom which was nice. Overall amazing value and location just. Very basic so keep your mind open!

Perfect stay in Sigiriya

We had an amazing stay at this place. The guest house was looked after by two guys, who were absolutely fantastic. They helped us organise tuk tuks and arranged the perfect safari in Kaudulla (saw loads of elephants). They made us a nice breakfast in the morning and their home cooked dinner was delicious. We stayed in the family room, which was very spacious and comfortable. Everything was also very clean and well looked after. It was also very quiet as the guest house was away from the main road. Location is perfect and it is about a 30 min walk to Sigiriya Rock. Definitely recommended staying here for the perfect budget accommodation.

We felt very lucky to find a place like this!

We really suggest this beautiful guesthouse. We spent a great time, the two owners are welcoming, professional, kind and also very good cooks (they cooked something different and typical everyday)!. There are 4 rooms, so the place is familiar and not crowdy. Room was clean and quite big for the standard, 2 fans, Wifi. Very nice garden to chill. It's close to the Sigiriya Rock and the owners can organize Safari to Minnerya/Kawdulla national parks.

so so but beer price???

I paid 1350 LKR for three bottles of beer here. Is it legitimate? The shop price is 160 LKR per bottle. The room was clean overall, but the web was in the window and there was no air-conditioner

Didn’t want to leave!

I stayed here 3 nights and enjoyed every minute of it! The host was very nice and helpful, and really went out of his way to make my area visits easy and enjoyable. The breakfasts were varied and delicious. I also had my evening meals here, and they were excellent and reasonably priced. The location is great, being within reasonable walking distance of Lion Rock and the village. My room was spacious and comfortable, and the hot-water shower was great (though the outside temperature was hot enough to make cool showers a pleasure). If I nitpick, the floor in my room had some debris by the window and around the base of the furniture that would be easy to sweep up (though I sure would hate to have someone closely examine the state of the floors in my own home). I would have happily stayed longer.

Beste Unterkunft auf unserer Reise

Wir hatten das Thilanka Rest trotz der wenigen Bewertungen gebucht und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Die Anlage liegt etwas zurückversetzt von der Straße, es ist also sehr ruhig. Das Zimmer war groß und sehr sauber, wie das gesamte Gebäude. Klimaanlage war nicht vorhanden, aber wir haben sie auch nicht benötigt. Abends kurz durchlüften reicht völlig aus. Man kann schön draußen auf der Terrasse sitzen, nur bei Einbruch der Dunkelheit braucht man Insektenspray. Das Frühstück war gut, das Abendessen sehr lecker und umfangreich. Wifi ist gut, wird allerdings Nachts automatisch abgeschaltet. Das Ehepaar, welches das Guesthouse leitet ist sehr fürsorglich und hilfsbereit. Meiner 5-jährigen Tochter hat es so gut gefallen, dass wir noch einen Tag länger geblieben sind. Zum Lions Rock von Sigiriya sind es ca. 20 Minuten zu Fuß oder 200 Rupien für ein Tuk-Tuk. Die Besteigung des Felsens (hoch ca. 1 Std.) können wir nur empfehlen. Vorsicht bei den (unzähligen) Affen, die klauen alles was man nicht festhält… Wir haben über die Unterkunft auch eine Safari zum Nationalpark Kaudulla (ca. 45 min. entfernt) organisiert. Hat auch alles super funktioniert und der Fahrer war sehr kompetent. Auf unserer 2-wöchigen Reise haben wir uns hier am wohlsten gefühlt und können das Thilanka Rest nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

Séjour sympathique dans ce cadre romantique

La ville est assez jolie extérieurement mais un peu vieillotte intérieurement. Je n'ai pas aimé la chambre au confort très rustique et j'avais mal au dos en me levant le matin. Je n'ai pas aimé le petit déjeuner Sri Lankais car je n'aime pas les plats pimentés. Le couple est très sympathique et toujours disponible. J'aime beaucoup ce village est les petits restaurant situés au coeur de ce petit village romantique ou l'on peut voir des éléphants tous les soirs vers 17 H 00 se baigner juste devant le pont.
