The hostel is nice and immersed in nature. However, I couldn’t stay due to overbooking after arriving late and exhausted. I was placed in another, very isolated hostel. Although the host initially offered to bring us back to the hostel, take us into the city, and pick us up so we could at least have the paid breakfast, he eventually withdrew and only offered overpriced tuk-tuks. I do not recommend

The toilet is great, big and spacious. But please don’t leave any food outside as the rat will come and eat it at night and you can’t sleep at all. No water is provided. All have to purchase. The location is further deep inside and hard to walk to find food. You can as the owner to ride you but they will charge you a high fee.

Nice and peaceful place in the middle of mango trees! Friendly and helpful staff and good breakfast! Clean room and really good beds with Lion rocks view. Highly recommended!

Generally liked it, although they had overbooked the rooms so I had be placed in a neighbouring hostel. Comparatively small hostel with great views on the loins rock, in between wonderful mango trees. Very comfortable beds. If you’re a solo traveler you might wanna look for something bigger or closer to town since after 5pm you’ll need a tuktuk to/from the hostel because of elephants roaming on the streets.

I was excited to stay at the here since the pictures look great and the location is out in nature. The ambience is exactly what you see and the vibe is peaceful. However, there were a few things that fell pretty flat. Since it’s far out of town, you have to rely on their restaurant for mediocre food at high prices. It took over 45 minutes to come out. The bathrooms and dorms are great but WiFi was hit or miss. Lastly, the staff aren’t responsive on WhatsApp and clearly had a gender preferenc...

Super Hostel! Wir hatten zwei tolle Nächte in einem sehr sauberen und gemütlichen Dorm. Die Aussicht vom Schlafzimmer ist der Wahnsinn und es ist der perfekte Ort, um zu chillen. Das Frühstück wie auch das Abendessen waren sehr lecker und liebevoll angerichtet. Die Gastgeber waren sehr hilfsbereit und sympathisch. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen! Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis TOP TOP TOP

Das Hostel ists sehr nett gelegen und schön der Aufenthaltsbereich im Mangowald ist sehr gemütlich und die Mangos schmecken famtastisch. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, besonders Sandun ist für jeden Spaß zu haben. Das Essen hat ein solides Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und ist sehr gut. die Pancakes zum Frühstück waren großartig. es ist etwas weiter draussen aber man kann nachts Glühwürmchen beobachten!

The hostel is very nicely located and beautiful the stay area in the Mangowald is very cozy and the Mangos taste fantastic. the staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Sandun is for any fun. das Essen has a solid value for money and is very good. the pancakes for breakfast were great. it is a little further out but you can observe fireflies at night!

If you are looking for a gentle and calm stay in Sigiriya, this is the perfect hostel for you. I stayed for three nights just to give myself a bit space and it was the best decision. You wake up with an incredible sunrise view over the lush green, you can even see the lions rock with the beautiful sound of Mother Nature. Wow🌿 The breakfast was delicious and the stuff was also really nice. The beds are comfortable and the bathroom is spacious. It’s a place to find peace, to calm down and ju...

It was the best hostel I have stayed in so far. I felt very welcome. The breakfasts and dinners were always so good. They drove us to see the sunset and sunrise, and picked us up whenever we needed them to. I can highly recommend it. I wish I had more time to stay.

Un lugar increible. El hostel se encunetra a las afueras del pueblo, se llega por un camino super bonito en medio de la selva. La casa, las zonas compartidas y el entorno no pueden ser mas bonito. El staff es super amigable y siempre dispuestos a ayudar. El desayuno estaba muy bueno. Los mejores mangos que he comido en mi vida!

Traducido al inglés

The hostel is nestled just outside the pueblo, reached by a super nice path in the middle of the jungle. the house, the shared areas and the surroundings could not be nicer. the staff is super friendly and always willing to help. the breakfast was very good. the best mangoes i have ever eaten in my life!
