This hotel lived up to the great ratings it has received...and then some. Every employee we encountered was warm and friendly. The breakfast buffet was outstanding, the rooms lovely. Best was all the elephant themed art work throughout the property. It was like walking in a modern art museum!

Luxurious but yet affordable resort
Amazing resort. Wonderfully laid out, with large walking tracks, huge green area nestled with unusual flora and fauna. Rooms are in spread out villas. Attentive staff. Great breakfast. It really felt like one is living inside a manicured forest!

Loved everything about this property, its location looking at Pidurangala and Sigiriya Rock was stunning. Plenty of food options.
Staff were super helpful and couldn’t do enough to please, constantly checking that everything was okay. They would arrange Tuktuk, private drivers and even check train travel for us. Would definitely stay here again

Comfortable hotel
A comfortable hotel with a clear view of Sigiriya rock. Great service, good a la carte food. Lighting in the room is a little dim. Accessing the soap and shampoo dispensers is dufficult. Therefore can't give a 5 star eating to this hotel.

The hotel is eco friendly with a great view of Sigiya mountain. Pool is to die for with enough chairs for the size of the hotel. Lots of grounds to walk in seeing the many monkeys and wildlife!
Staff were friendly but could not converse well in English.
The service was extremely slow around the pool and in the dining area. Quality of food was poor compared to other hotels we have stayed in. In fact we visited the Heritage hotel for dinner one night which was far superior to what we had at this hotel. It’s a pity as the hotel itself is lovely.

Kæmpe hotel uden så mange værelser
Stort og flot hotel, men kun 94 værelser, men føles ikke sådan, fordi man bor i huse på den enorme grund.
Fantastisk swimmingpool og venlig betjening.

Gutes Hotel mit Aussicht
Der Eingangsbereich mit Lobby und Restaurant sowie der Pool bieten eine einmahlige Aussicht auf den Fels und den Urwald.
Die Bungalows sind schön eingerichtet und verfügen über jegliche Annehmlichkeiten ausser aussicht. Denn sie stehen im Wald. Unser Bungalow oder besser gesagt die Klimaanlage war modrig.

Bij aankomst in de kamer waren er 2 gekko´s op de muren. Het opgeroepen personeel heeft deze snel verwijderd.
De huisjes kunnen nogal verwijderd liggen van het hoofdgebouw, en noodzaken dus een zekere afstand na het diner waarbij niet steeds voldoende verlichting aanwezig was. Bij regen is dit evenmin een voordeel.
Ruim aanbod bij bufetten. Fantastisch zicht op Sigiriya Rock.

Géographiquement idéale pour les activités que nous avions choisi. Pour la propreté c'est à revoir des poils dans la douche à notre arrivée, bac à douche fissuré et douche bouchée. Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans l'une des cabane/bungalow les 3 nuits nous avons été réveillés par des chauves-souris dans la chambre et mystère sur leur entrée car tout était pourtant fermé.
