Sigiri Birds Hostel

La gentillesse et disponibilité des hôtes Les petit dej inclus et le restaurant est bon La possibilité d’avoir un vélo pratique pour se déplacer

Pas de climatisation dans le dortoir, les ventilateurs seulement, il fait très chaud la journée Les trajets tuktuk avec l’hôtel me paraissent chers mais pas trop le choix

It's a family run hostel by a young couple. They're very friendly and helpful with everything. Also have 2 very cute little children. They try their best to make you feel comfortable. They gave me some local tips for my visit. They can offer you a tuktuk ride to Lion's Rock, Pidurangala or Dambulla too! The place is very well located, very close to the village center, 5mins walk. It has a really big and nice garden where you can chill, lay on the hammock, watch the stars at night or play around with the children :) Room was big enough, comfortable bed and clean bathroom. Nimesika (the wife) prepares everything for you, including very delicious Sri Lankan meals. They also have a restaurant run by her in front of the property. Even though you don't stay there, you can go for lunch or dinner or drinks.

Mi estación fue muy buena, los dueños fueron amables en todo rato y se preocuparon por ayudarme en lo que necesitase, es un lugar bonito en una buena zona rodeado de la jungla increíble que hay, me comentó que a veces se ven elefantes salvajes cerca del recinto! Tenéis muy cerca el famoso Sigiriya Lion Rock! y Pidurangala rock! Sin duda fue un experiencia muy bonita!

No tengo nada que decir

What I Loved: Nuwan, the owner, is an incredibly friendly host. He didn’t just welcome us, he took care of us – literally driving us around, showing us all the best spots in Sigiriya, and recommending hidden gems we would’ve never found ourselves (including a stunning sunset spot!). He’s well connected with all the local tourist activities and goes out of his way to arrange everything smoothly for his guests. His wife is equally lovely and cooked us authentic Sri Lankan meals. Don’t expect fancy restaurant-style food..it’s wholesome, traditional, and adds to the warm, family-style experience. Their constant smiles, and genuine hospitality made us feel completely at home. And yes, their two kids are absolutely adorable! Location: The location is perfect – tucked away in a quiet, secluded area, very close to all the major attractions in Sigiriya. There are also 3-4 other guesthouses within walking distance where you can go for lunch or dinner.  At night, the sky is filled with stars – peaceful and magical. *PRO TIP: Definitely go for a walk at night! We thought we saw a shooting star, but it turned out to be a firefly – the tree at the entrance lights up with fireflies at night. Pure magic! ✨ Stay: The guest house has one big shared room with four single beds, each with mosquito nets. There's a long common bathroom – simple and clean. It’s nothing fancy, and you’ll need to bring your own toiletries (though Nuwan will happily help you out if you forget something). We were two friends and shared the room with a solo traveler. we had great conversations and made a new friend. It’s a lovely place for solo travelers to meet people and share stories! Overall, it’s a budget-friendly, clean, and homely place where the hosts’ hospitality makes any small flaws feel irrelevant We left with full hearts and unforgettable memories. Highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Sigiriya!

While the stay was overall lovely, there are a few things to keep in mind. The place is very simple and basic—just one large shared room with four beds and a long common bathroom, so don’t expect luxury or privacy. You’ll need to bring your own toiletries. The meals are homemade and authentic, which adds to the experience, but they’re quite simple—so if you're expecting restaurant-style or richly flavored food, you might be a little underwhelmed. That said, the warmth of the hosts more than makes up for these small things.
