Stayed here for 1 night but it was absolutely delightful! The staff was very hospitable, the amenities were great, lication of the hotel relative to the touristy attractions was fantastic, breakfast was on point, room was decent sized and clean too. Gave us nothing to complain about. 10/10 and would highly recommend.

The hotel is in a wonderful location in terms of walkability but the rooms are on the main road. The staff was kind and helpful when needed but not proactive - they never showed me the pool or told me about dinner options or activities for the New Year that the hotel organized. The room was mostly clean but there was food left from the previous guest in the fridge and the bathroom had mold and really needs an upgrade. The room was also only cleaned on the 2nd but not the 3rd day of my 4 days there. The bed was also way too soft (but I guess some people like that).

Good thing about this property is, its is close by Sigiriya Rock besides that there really is nothing the property has to offer. For convenience to the park, I will say stay here but be ready for worn down property with noisy room by the Main Street.

It’s a three star hotel and it shows. The location is the main selling point. Super convenient and walkable to all the bars and restaurants of Sigiriya. The rooms are decently sized and it comes with a king bed and an additional twin bed. There are definitely ants in the room and geicos too so fyi on that if that bothers you. You get what you pay for.

Good hotel to stay in Sigiriya but ...

Nice, modern and clean hotel just at the road at Sangriya. Hotel layout like in American motels :) Nice and quiet. Hotel restaurant available and local ones within minutes walk.

There is a place for a swimming pool, but there is none, so it is probably planned in the future.

Unfortunately, after booking a room and arriving quite late (around 8:00 P.M.), the staff \"couldn't handle\" the fact that we are with a 13 year old child and our booking made via hotels.com includes one king size bed AND one queen size bed. Unfortunately, showing the reservation with above description did not help and the manager demanded an additional payment for a larger room with an extra bed - even though the error was on the hotel's side and such a room was free anyway.

It wasn't even a question of breakfast for 3, which we opted out of when booking anyway (we have booked without breakfast, room only).

My booking was done correctly. Unfortunately, the stuff wasn't up to the task. For this reason, we did not stay another night - we found another accommodation where there was no such problem.

Fairly clean with air conditioning and a nice private restroom for each bedroom. The only problem were the fixtures. The doors are squeeky and are coming off the hinges. Yeah, that's right, the doors are literally falling off. You have to lift it and force it back into the slot. The chairs on the patio are also falling apart and you can't sit on them. The location could not be better - literally a few feet from the entrance to the Rock fortress with the best local restaurants just adjacent as well. Overall the place needs renovation but for $50 night it's probably the best deal you can get right now. BTW do NOT pay for any buffet at the hotel, cheaper and more delicious food is available 100 feet down the road.

The cleanness is okay.

The service was terrible, we booked a room with 1 double bed and 1 twin bed, for 2 adults and 1 child (actually we are 1 adult and 2 children at 12 and 8) with half board, however when we arrived we were asked to pay extra money for the child's meals(dinner and breakfast). Obviously we refused and as the result, they only served 2 sets of dinner and the contents of them were very poor which you can't imagine. After that, they gave us a room with only 1 double bed and then another room also with only 1 double bed after we claimed the bed configuration was not right. And then after about 40 min, we finally got a right room with right beds, after strongly arguing with them.

Totally disappointing after read a lot of good reviews about the property.

Very good option within walking distance of the exit of Sirigiya Rock; the entrance is a bit further away. Clean and comfortable, being in the end room the shower water took a while to get hot and the flow wasn't very strong. The breakfast is reasonable, a buffet with a decent enough choice, but very weak coffee. Great selection of reasonable local restaurants a few meters down the road.

We had the place to ourselves which was good in one way but it meant that there was no buffet breakfast. Even though I had paid for 5 guests and only 3 guests had breakfast, when I asked for a bottle of water at breakfast I was charged 150Rs for a bottle that would cost 25Rs down the street. Staff did not make us feel welcome.

A+ ! 1, we are both vegans, and one of us came in throwing up breakfast she had in Colombo literally ... The chef did everything wlmy friend asked and more, eggless bread, heatles curry, plain lectus salads, plain rice, all tasted quite good (unbelievable), my friend's gut was able to rest and had recovered here... My food was delicious too, of course but the effort to nursing my friend is so moving we could not thank the staff enough

2, The hotel also arranged for all our excursions in the cultural hub, very good drivers and cars

3, If you like quiet, make this the base of the cultural hub; right across the entrance to the preacher rock park,10 minute bike to pidurangala, 1 hr car to mineryia park, 1.5 hr car to polonaruwa and anuradhapura (excluding local traffic time), 30 min tuk tuk to dambulla caves

Kandi is far , 2.5-3 hr, round trip for us took 10 hrs and 5 went to driving,

You can also book tour to trincomalee here

This is the biggest hotel here , 20+ rooms, some small bars and restaurants, not rowdy or noicy, ATM 500 meters down the road or 10 min walk to preacher rock museum,（nice walk too)

Very nice and new facility. Good service and very comfortable room, even provided robes, and also had a back door out onto a patio. The bathroom got extremely musty/funky smelling and the dining situation was less than desirable. Good food but open air and lots of mosquitos and flies. The area was great as Sigiriya rock was close by and also several good dining options (strangely far less bugs at a fraction of the price).

Great Hotel!!

We were pleasantly surprised to find such a nice hotel upon our arrival to Sigiriya! Ekho hotel appears to have been recently renovated and is also going by the name of Zinc Journey. The large rooms were clean and nicely decorated in an antique style. The lobby/restaurant area is open and spacious, which feels calming after a long day of sightseeing. We enjoyed the food at the restaurant but found it to be a bit pricey. There are many shops and restaurants within walking distance and Lion Rock is also nearby.

Hotel with a jungle experience

Most of the items on the menu were unavailable.

I was bitten by mosquitoes whenever I dined there at night. Suggest they include a mosquito coil for customers.

Ordered Tom Tam soup, but the soup was from a paste and it was literally filled with oil.

However, the younger staff were generally polite and accommodating apart from one man at the reception area.
