Very good instalations. All the staff was helpful and nice. Amazing to see the elefants taking bath a few feet from us. They did us an upgrade, and we stayed in a room with balcony to the river.

My wife and I booked this last minute as we were both ill on arrival to Sri Lanka and couldn't drive to Sigiriya as planned. The staff were amazing!! They really went above and beyond. They knocked on the door numerous times to check on us and bring us food and drinks. The room was great, and the setting was so peaceful and picturesque. Thank you so much for the staff ❤️
