Bike hire is available at this homestay and the area is popular for cycling. The homestay also offers car hire. Sigiriya Rock is 800 metres from Sigiri Rock Side Home Stay, while Pidurangala Rock is 1.8 km from the property. Honestly one of the best places I've stayed in my whole trip. Very beautiful place with delicious breakfast. The owner was incredibly nice. He took me to Pindurangala rock early in the morning, arranged my Jeep safari tour and even took me to bus station at my departure. Would defenetly 100% recommend. The best place.

Secondly the room is confy and tidy with ac and all the features. I reccomend you to sit and relax on the outside terrace and breathe a real srylanka lifestayle and enjoy the wildlife. Thirdly I really recoomend let Kumari prepare some food. I’m a celiac and she helped and gave us all the advice we needed. She gave us the best breakfast and dinner we have triyed in sry lanka by far. Evething was delicius with miticolously care. Also, she offer us a Safari wich was fantastic and even they pic us from the homestay. We saw lot of elephants. Do not think it twice, this is the best option around Sigiriya and Lion Rock.

Towels and bed linen are available in the homestay. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

The homestay specialises in a continental and Full English/Irish breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. As an added convenience, Pidurangala View Treehouse offers packed lunches for guests to bring on excursions and other trips off-property. Wonderful location and hosts. These are hard working people that are doing their best to make people feel welcome and comfortable. Both of which I did.

Set within 17 km of Sigiriya Rock and 20 km of Pidurangala Rock, Hotel Hanguk Villa offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Dambulla. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. All rooms come with a patio with views of the mountain. Villa Hanguk is an ideal spot if you plan to explore the Dambulla area. The owner is incredibly helpful, offering assistance with scooter or tuk-tuk rentals and organizing local trips. The villa is nestled just 400 meters from the main city street, surrounded by lush paddy fields. The beautifully maintained garden is filled with vibrant plants and flowers, offering plenty of cozy spots to relax—whether in a hammock, at a dining area, or playing table games. Being in the middle of nature, you can expect the delightful sounds of wildlife, including peacocks. It truly adds to the charm of the place. One of the highlights of our stay was the Sri Lankan food. The meals were not only delicious but also generously portioned. I highly recommend skipping outside restaurants and instead asking the staff to prepare dinner for you—you won’t be disappointed!

There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service. It's a little little family business with fantastic hosts! A basic but cosy treehouse, the cooking time with their family was one of my best experience in Sigiriya! Those people deserve a big big support

Hidden Lake Cottages Sigiriya is located in Sigiriya and features a private pool and lake views. Featuring babysitting service, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. The guest house provides pool views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available. Super nice rooms, well decorated, very clean and calm. The private pool is a real plus. Perfect to chill and relax. Mahesh is the manager of the place and was offering to us free pick up from the center to the cottage which really helped us a lot. I really recommend this place. The only 2 things that do not match with the description of the hotel: no free pick up from dambulla and no bikes to lend in the place.
