Hotel Sigiriyaaya - Jetwing Select
9.0 (14 reviews)

Hotel Sigiriyaaya - Jetwing Select ★★★

📍 70 Rangirigama Rd, Sigiriya, Dambulla

"A wonderful hotel in a quiet location among rice fields. Peacocks and the sounds of the jungle. If you love nature and solitude, this is perfect! Just remember that there's no "civilization" right next door. The rooms are nice, clean, and comfortable. The reception is very warm. The breakfast and dinner were delicious! Thanks to all the hotel staff. Most importantly for those traveling by car, the road Google defaults to on the lake side is bad, full of potholes; we barely made it. The road on the other side, while rough, is much better. I've attached a map in the photo."

📍 Idigaswewa, Sigiriya, Dambulla

"This hotel was terrible. The rooms were damp and a bit old. Not only that, but every night the shower water would turn cold halfway through. I contacted the hotel twice to have it fixed, and they said it was fixed, but the problem persisted. I strongly advise against staying there. It was awful."

"A quiet hotel with a mango orchard. The food is varied, from tasty to very spicy, so be careful. Don't bother with the spa; they don't know how to give massages at all. Monkeys were running around on the roof at night, making some noise. We didn't see any elephants. Otherwise, everything was great."

"We had a wonderful stay at **Amaya Lake Dambulla**. The resort is set in a beautiful, peaceful location surrounded by nature, with lovely lake views and a very relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable and well maintained, the grounds were spacious and scenic, and the staff were friendly, professional and welcoming throughout our stay. The sunset by the lake was especially beautiful and made the experience even more memorable. A great place to relax while visiting Dambulla, Sigiriya and the surrounding Cultural Triangle. Highly recommended, and we would happily stay here again."

Liyya Water Villas Hotels in Dambulla

Liyya Water Villas

"First, this hotel is in a very remote location, with nothing nearby, making it difficult to get around. Secondly, the hotel's design clearly shows a lot of effort, but it's not well maintained. We were moved four rooms in one day. Within 10 minutes of checking in, they told us there was a plumbing problem. After a long wait, they moved us to a different room type. After checking in, we still had no water. In the third room, large bugs kept dropping onto the bed and onto our bodies throughout the night, which was terrifying. We finally got our final room cleaned and changed after 10 PM. We finally got some sleep, but the next morning, the stationary hair dryer was broken again! We had our laundry done, and they told us we didn't need to iron it, only wash it. But when we checked out, they still charged us for the ironing! Luckily, my husband had texted them about our request via What's Up, and they were able to get rid of the extra charge. This completely delayed our plans for the better part of a day!"

Sinhagiri Villa Hotels in Dambulla

Sinhagiri Villa

"I think we had our best time in Sri Lanka in Sinhagiri villa. This hotel is as eco-friendly as you can get. It uses completely renewable energy (also for the air conditioning) and the food in their restaurant is 100% organic. The vegetables and fruit you have for breakfast and dinner come from their garden and are grown without using any chemicals or pesticides. It is also the best food we have had in Sri Lanka. The vegetable curry dish comes with about 5 different vegetable dishes - each one bursting with flavour and mouth-wateringly delicious. Breakfast is a treat as well with lots of fruit from the garden and local breakfast dishes such as Sri Lankan pancakes and coconut roti with sambal. In addition, you are in the middle of nature so a peacock comes for a visit in the garden each day! Sriyani and her husband are also the most warm-hearted people you can meet. We had wonderful talks with them about everything and they went out of their way for us. We actually consider them friends now and hope to see them soon again! They are passionate about the environment and run their hotel and restaurant in a way that is good for the local surroundings, the people and the planet. We highly recommend!"

Sigiriana Resort by Thilanka Hotels in Dambulla

Sigiriana Resort by Thilanka

"Loved this hotel, fabulous large room and ensuite, with separate walk in shower and bath. Good AC and working fridge, comfy bed. Fab scenery from balcony, looking out on paddy fields, snd amazing sounds from wildlife at night. Safe should be secured to some surface though, so it can't be lifted. Food was good standard, very similar to other hotels we visited. Pool area was super, nice amount of beds and tables and chairs, plenty of towels available. Bar was nice, good singer one night who took our requests and got us all up dancing. Bar staff were excellent, much quicker than in other places, and more than willing to learn how to make a Baby Guinness!"

Milano Grand Hotels in Dambulla

Milano Grand

"An exceptional stay at the Milano Grand – a true 5-star experience for quality and hospitality We stayed two nights at the Milano Grand, and the experience was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a refreshing drink, which was truly welcome after a long journey. The staff is impeccable, incredibly kind and helpful. A huge thank you to the manager, Lucky, whose kindness and professionalism transformed our stay. Our heavy luggage was carried to our room, and we received excellent recommendations for sightseeing and dining. They even reserved and arranged a scooter for us for our explorations the following day. Breakfast was fit for a king: fresh fruit, fresh smoothies, variety, and generous portions. The rooms were large, very clean, and truly comfortable. The location is perfect: right next to the bus station. And best of all, at check-out, Lucky personally escorted us to the station to show us exactly which bus to take. A rare, thoughtful, and deeply appreciated gesture. For the price, the quality, the welcome, and the kindness of the staff, this hotel easily deserves 5 stars. I highly recommend the Milano Grand. An exceptional address in Dambulla 🙏✨"

Sigiriya Village ★★★★★
"It has a colonial feel and is a bit dated. But the location is fantastic, practically in the middle of a forest.  There are many monkeys and other animals roaming around.   Rooms are large.  Food quality is on par for Sri Lanka. The staff are excellent, knowledgeable of attractions and helpfull arranging tours and taxis."

Amron Resort Sigiriya ★★★
"A month at this hotel was a true fairy tale for us! We felt right at home thanks to the incredibly friendly and kind family who took care of us from the very first moment. They were also ready to help with literally everything! When we mentioned that we wanted to cook for ourselves and were looking for accommodation with a kitchen, they simply... built us a kitchen! It was incredible! We couldn't imagine that people could be so responsive. We were often treated to incredibly delicious, generous meals. Breakfasts are a special treat here: always plenty of food, fresh ingredients, and everything is incredibly delicious. You can also rent their bicycles to explore the amazing Sigiriya. It was amazing! Riding along picturesque trails amidst the wild nature was a dream! Even within the hotel grounds, you can feel a connection with nature: colorful birds sing their melodies, squirrels dart through the palm trees, and monitor lizards leisurely wander through the bushes – true harmony with nature. We left with a heavy heart, as this place became our home for a whole month. We recommend it to anyone seeking warm hospitality, comfort, and a connection with nature. Don't hesitate – this hotel is definitely worth your consideration!"

Hotel Sigiriya ★★★★
"We chose Hotel Sigiriya due to its proximity to The Lion Rock entrance. Distance from hotel is roughly 8 mins. Please note, it’s advisable to not WALK! Remember to order a tuk-tuk in advance if you plan to climb Sigiriya and watch the sunrise. We left at 5am and paid a return ride of LKR1,500 for two person. Our tuk-tuk driver Chaminda +94 ********* took good care of us -two 50yrs old ladies who successfully climbed the summit. Typical of Ceylonese people the hotel staffs were warm and friendly. Shout out to Tharaka (Reception Manager) who always greeted us with a smile and Shehan Restaurant Manager for entertaining us during our 3 day stay. Our room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable. Good hot shower and acceptable water pleasure. Nice to return to a room that’s been nicely made after 2 hard days of stairs climbing - the Pidurangala (first day) and Sigiriya (second day). Our travel dates were May 31 - Jun 3. Good variety for breakfast buffer - Sri Lankan and Western. The same applies to dinner buffer too. Overall, nice hotel and yes will stay again."

"The service attitude of the store is very good (it should be a store independently operated by the owner). After arriving at the store, I was given a glass of watermelon juice (free). There is a small terrace outside the room. The most abundant thing is breakfast. The photos and scenes on Ctrip have a relatively high degree of restoration."
