If you're seeking an unforgettable stay in Sri Lanka, look no further than Singha Lounge! Their hostel isn't just a place to rest; it's a home away from home. From the second I stepped through their doors, I was embraced by Judith and Isuru's warmth and genuine care. The family's hospitality was beyond compare - they made sure every moment was comfortable and enriching. Their two adorable kids and one special repeat visitor from Denmark became the cherry on top of this holiday :) Judith's delicious cooking classes and homemade meals, and the engaging conversations truly made my trip unforgettable. Staying here didn't just offer accommodation; it provided an authentic experience and a sense of belonging. For an enriching and heartwarming Sri Lankan experience, this hostel with its exceptional host family is an absolute must!

Albert

From

Austria

A very welcoming and completely renovated property surrounded by greenery, very close to "Jungle Beach," a unique experience that immerses you in the true culture of Sri Lanka. Although the hostel is not currently on Google Maps, and therefore difficult to find, there is a Tuc Tuc service offered by the host who will take you from the first hostel, "Oops," to "Hanuman Heights"! Very nice! Definitely an experience to try at least once in your life.

The staffs are just so fantastic. I was super confused with the airport highway bus and one of the staff came all the way with me to help and check if I'm taking the right bus😭 And they always come to ask you if you need anything. The room is hotel quality, felt really safe in the hostel too. Location is great, you can easily get to the Galle fort on foot or by tuktuks. Highly recommend it!
