A very kind and helpful family. When an elephant entered their garden at night, the host took a great care of our safety, but let us have a glimpse of it. The family was chatty with a good energy, ready to answer any questions about the stay.

We stayed here as a group of friends and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The host was incredible – he ordered and organised things for us, gave us loads of tips about the local area, and even went above and beyond when my friend left her bag at a bus stop. He actually tracked it down and drove it back to us! His whole family were so kind and welcoming, which made us feel completely at home. Breakfast was amazing every morning, and the beds were huge double bunks, super comfy after a long day exploring. Honestly, the host and his family made the trip for us – such a special place to stay

Best place ever!!! The location is just perfect, you are away from the loud and crowded places but still a walkable distance to anywhere, you are surrounded by nature you can also see deers in the morning it’s truly magical! Diwakara and his family are all the sweetest people that take you in and you feel so much at home. The beds are comfortable and the shower is nice and strong, which you don’t get everywhere. The only problem is that you might not want to leave this place EVER. 😆

I stayed in this hostel for 3 nights. All of the equipment was very clean and the bed was bigger than a single bed, so it was very comfortable. But the best point of this hostel is the staff. They care for me all the time and are quite kind. It is the reason that I extended to stay here one more night. If I come back to Sigiriya next time I will stay in this hostel again.

Very nice family, great breakfast only that I miss some salty proteins like eggs. Cozy room. We could take a shower after we cane back from the Lions rock and was way past the checkout time.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
