Unfassbar nette Familie. Wir haben 2 mal verlängert weil es uns dort so gut gefallen hat. Die Lage ist perfekt, dieselt an der Main Route und nicht weit entfernt vom Lion Rock. Die Familie war zudem sehr hilfsbereit. Der Sohn der Familie war immer erreichbar und konnte direkt immer helfen. Das Frühstück war zudem auch sehr lecker und genug. Wir hatten auch ein kleines Ameisen Problem im Bad, aber auch nicht so dramatisch.

Ameisen überall, überall Schimmel, es riecht super moderig dort, nach unserem Aufenthalt der nur eine Nacht war, rochen unsere ganzen Klamotten nach dem moderigen Zimmer. Die Ameisen fühlten sich am wohlsten dort. Die Decke war eine Tagesdexke mit vielen Flecken.

Despite the lovely owners and proximity to the Main Street of Sigirya (and the rocks) I would advise being wary of booking here. The rooms were INSANELY damp and I left with all my clothes that had stayed in my bag being very damp. There was also clearly lots of black mould all over the walls that had been painted over. When you lie in your bed for more than one minute you become damp instantly. The family who runs it are lovely however and provide a great breakfast.

So glad I stayed at Horizon. The location is perfect & the owners really care about hospitality. The owner‘s son Sithu will organize specific safari depending on the season and weather pattern. Sithu saved my trip. My phone shattered on my second day and he took HOURS out of his day to help get me a new phone. That goes to show how the family will truly make you feel at home. I stayed in a private but this property is more bed and breakfast vibes but still met people because of tables outsid...

Family ran hostel and the couple were very nice and helpful. Made breakfast for you every morning. The hostel is in a good location just a short walk from a view of lions rock. There were lots of bugs in the room but they do provide a mosquito net. There was also a dog that barked through the night both nights during our stay making it difficult to sleep. The man was considerate and understood when we checked out one night early.

Made the mistake of booking a night later then our arrival. Owner was very hospitable and let us stay that night instead of having to book again. What a legend!

Very nice and calm stay in beautiful nature, close to Lion’s rock. I had the breakfast included which was delicious, the owner wasn’t there but very easy to arrange a jeep safari with him through whatsapp, his parents were super kind and friendly hosts. And yes there are bugs in the evening, that’s normal, but there’s a net you can put over your bed so you can sleep without any worries :) Highly recommend this place!

Amazing. The breakfast is unreal! And the staff are all very accommodating. I wouldn’t say it is a very ‘social’ hostel however it is still nonetheless great.

Family was so sweet and considerate. There was an intense bug problem but I’d you think of it like camping you’ll be good to go!
