Everything here is amazing. Room is spacious, there is parking on-site, and is located a short walk away from the main street of Sigiriya. Breakfast is amazing and was one of the highlights! I also had to check-in really late, and the homestay owner was very accommodating to the request. We also booked a safari jeep tour (organised by the homestay) and we saw many elephants (around 60) that afternoon!

Situated within 1.3 km of Sigiriya Rock and 4.1 km of Pidurangala Rock, Sigiri Saman Home Stay offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Sigiriya.

Loved my stay. They had at heart that I had everything I needed, even offered to drop me to the bike rental place, and even to the lions rock entrance at 5 am in the morning as they might be elephants on the road at this hour. Breakfast As wonderful! Location. Is great : next to city center and walkinghf distance from the south exit of the lions rock. Highly recommend

The quality of the accomodation is simply sensational. The location, view, comfort, cleanliness, breakfast, attention to detail are top notch. You can see the rock from the garden. Ashoka is the most welcoming and caring host. The breakfast on the patio was really special as monkeys and mongoose paid the visit. :) Totally recommended!

An excellent experience hosted by a lovely family. Our treehouse was brilliant, located next to a lake with lots of wildlife. Breakfast was always freshly cooked and very tasty every morning. Perfect location for visiting the rocks! Pramoth was always on hand to take us wherever we wanted to go for a fair price.

    Great hospitality ,so reasonable and valuable experiences. I swam in near lake with host family.Locals wash their bodies and clothes there. so I also washed my body. Host took me the Rock to watch sunrise, it was so beautiful view ,on the way home fortunately I saw wild crocodile. After that I rode an elephant (5000LKR required). They served so delicious and local breakfast. He was the best host ever. If you stay here,your satisfaction with staying in Sigiriya will be greatly improved.

    I really loved staying at Pidurangala View Home Stay ♥️ the hosts are amazing, super kind and attentive and will help you to organize your schedule so you can make the most of tour time. Also, the location is incredible, it is a 10 min walk to the entrance to the Lion Rock and a 5min walk to the entrance of Pidurangala. Those walks are so scenic, you can spot monkeys, butterflies, peacocks, it is perfect. The food is so delicious, I totally recommend that you have dinner at this homestay, it is SO delicious 🙏🏻 Loved the hosts ♥️

The homestay is also walkable distance to a lovely restaurant called Nirwana. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the terrace of Lions Rock is unmatched.
