À la carte and Full English/Irish breakfast options with pancakes, fruits and juice are available. The traditional restaurant at the guest house serves Asian cuisine, and is open for dinner and lunch. The owner picked us up at the bus stop and welcomed us with a fresh drink. We were happy to stay at this villa. The room has everything you need, the ac, the fan and it was very clean. It is located a bit far from the center but we liked it even more, because it was super calm. The owner also dropped us at the temple entrance and picked us up from there on his tuktuk all at the price of pick me app. Then the other day he drove us to sigiriya and even packed us a breakfast to go (tip: put it in your backpack), showed us other places on the way back and then helped us arrange a jeep trip to the national park with the elephants. The breakfast and dinner we had there were delicious. The staff is extremely polite and friendly!

The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. Featuring a private bathroom with a bath and free toiletries, units at the guest house also offer free WiFi, while selected rooms are fitted with a balcony. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. It is one of the best places I have stayed in all of Sri Lanka. You are in the middle of nature and once you come back from climbing the rock it is a haven of peace. The rooms are very rustic but charming. They have built them themselves. And now the most important part, the family. I have no words to describe their kindness and hospitality. The man always worried that I would not lack anything. He took me with his motorbike to a medicinal plant garden and also to Pidurangaya and the famous Sigiriya rock. A great person with a big heart. And let's talk about the meals, dinner and breakfast of great quality and quantity. They know how to pamper their customers with details, like a fruit juice. They will never say no. They also wash your clothes. In summary: highly recommended for the human warmth that you breathe and the good treatment you receive. The best place in Sigiriya and almost all of Sri Lanka.

Offering a garden and garden view, Nature Night Homestay is situated in Sigiriya, 6.5 km from Pidurangala Rock and 1.2 km from Wildlife Range Office - Sigiriya. It is set 3.3 km from Sigiriya Rock and features a 24-hour front desk. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. By far our favourite homestay in Sri Lanka so far! Breakfast offered is traditional Sri Lankan options and was delicious, we stayed 2 nights and it was different both mornings. We also had dinner both nights we stayed (again different both evenings) and really great value vs. eating out. Location is set back from Main Street which we liked, and really quiet. Room has everything you need, including a hot shower! A lovely seating area to relax before dinner. Couldn’t recommend enough!!
