Hotel Sigiriya

The view off the Sigiriya mountain was excellent and why we selected this place. The rooms very nice but most outlets did not work part of the time so woke up to a "dead" phone. The pool is very nice and the sunbeds and pooltowels are nice. The buffet at dinner was very good but also very pricy (6000 Lkr/person even with a coupon we got at arrival). The service in the restaurant was medium - they were all busy collecting plates and quick delivery of drinks. The live music we think would have been better without singing. The morning buffet was not as good as other "high" hotels - no bowls near the youghurt, sliced frute box next to youghurt was not open and need to go for help - no musli for the youghurt. Most pastries was covered in glacing. Coffee and tea you need to pick up your selv as a because only 1 pot of each one sometimes had to wait. I recommend the hotel does as others do - waiters come around and serve tea and coffe - all on a tray including milk. I recommend this hotel only because off the nice view off Sigiriya rock.

Our experience in this hotel has been amazing: the breakfast was delicious and all the staff was super caring and professional. We definitely recommend it!

Bad à la carte meals. Otherwise very good! Could have stayed more than two days.

Old property not well maintained. Rooms are small.

Staff are nice specially the ones who are not in the restaurant. Hotel is very beautiful in very nice environment. Live music at nights, cute Christmas decorations all great. Food is relatively good (we tried breakfast and dinner and they were delicious). Needs improvement: For 2/4 nights of our stay we had lizards in our rooms (2 rooms, one constantly had in the other one we saw one day). Ultimately they changed one of our rooms for the second night with lizards but overall experience was severely impacted. Also at the buffet for both breakfast and dinner they tend not to refill the food and strangely before 1hr of the end time they comfortably say oh we don’t have xxx!
