The WIFI connection was very good. We were able to stream movies. Location was great. Close to Sigiriya rock and also to several restaurants.

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and wardrobe. A balcony with mountain view, a satellite flat-screen TV and air conditioning are offered in some units. At the guest house, units are fitted with a private bathroom. We stayed 2 nights on this beautiful location with beautiful people. The very nice room was situated in a little house with a nice terrace outside. So clean and looked as a totally new place. The service was brilliant. We got all the help we needed. For example for getting a transfer to the pidurangala ( at 5 0’clock in the morning) and a very good taxi driver who took us to our next location (very long drive/ the taxi driver gave us a roadtrip with visits to special places). Tree trails thank you so much for taking care of us! We loved our stay with you.

Offering a garden and garden view, Simoya Nature Park is set in Dambulla, 19 km from Sigiriya Rock and 22 km from Pidurangala Rock. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Dambulla. The hotel location is very good. The view from the room was amazing. Having breakfast right in the middle of the nature was amazing. Hotel owner is very cute family and they were so helpful. Hotel owner also does Dambulla tour with his own car. So we had the tour with him and he knows every corner so he was very helpful guide as well. We went to lots of sightseeings with him, including Cave Temple, Sigiriya, Pidurangala rock and village tour, he knew every place that i had in my list so our tour in Dambulla was perfect. Also during the conversation they heard about our 10 year wedding anniversary and they did a nice touch and congratulated as the next day. We also took hotels airport transfer, and Ella transfer we did with hotel owner. Room was clean, breakfast was perfect, we also ordered dinner and it was super tasty and super big in portion. There is nothing that they need to improve, everything was amazing. Thank you so much Madhu and Sanjee. Godak sthuuthi🙏

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. Definitely one of my favorite stays i had while travelling through SriLanka. Bathroom was above the standard that we were used to within SriLanka, AC worked perfectly and the bed was very comfortable too. But what has made this Acoomodation so perfect was definitely the host family! They were so kind and prepared a very authentic and yummy breakfast for us. We also decided to have dinner (which you pay additionally but best price-performance ratio you could ask for), where they prepared 6 different dishes for us and we regretted that we didn't spent another night to taste that food again.
