Hotel Hanguk Villa

Dambulla

Offering a garden and mountain view, Hotel Hanguk Villa is set in Dambulla, 17 km from Sigiriya Rock and 20 km from Pidurangala Rock. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The guest house features family rooms. Incredible stay. Very clean and comfortable, with working AC and a ceiling fan. Both warm and cold water for the shower. Most notably, the hosts were fantastic! So welcoming and so helpful. When we arrived they drove us to a scooter rental so we could get our scooter. The one day we had to leave early to go to Sigiriya for the day and they packed us a breakfast to go. Dinner at their restaurant was affordable and delicious. On the morning we left, they drove us to the bus station and stayed with us to make sure we caught the right bus. If you’re staying in Dambulla you should definitely stay here. These may be the most helpful hosts I’ve ever had while travelling across Southeast Asia.

A hidden gem in Sri Lanka: a review of our stay at the charming Guest House** Nestled in the lush greenery and vibrant landscapes of Sri Lanka, our recent stay at a charming guest house was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality that felt like a warm hug after a long journey. The guest house itself is a beautifully designed oasis that seamlessly blends traditional Sri Lankan architecture with modern comforts. Our room was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated, with stunning views of the surrounding hills and gardens. Waking up to the soothing sounds of nature was a refreshing experience that rejuvenated our spirits every morning. An huge from Giusy e Asia from Italy🥰

This homestay offers free private parking, free shuttle service and free WiFi. The homestay features a pool with a view with a fence, as well as spa facilities and a 24-hour front desk. I don’t usually do reviews but I had to with Galaxy view. I stayed here with my girlfriend. This stay was honestly amazing! From the minute we walked in we were given a warm welcome by Karu and his family. They are such accommodating hosts and so kind. This felt like a home away from home. Nothing was too much to ask. They also cooked us such a tasty breakfast each morning. We had dinner the night we arrived and it was outstanding. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you’re thinking of staying here, do it. Check clodaghdavid.travels on tiktok for an overall view of the place. Hopefully one day we can stay again!

Shan Mango Homestay

Sigiriya

Featuring garden views, Shan Mango Homestay provides accommodation with pool with a view, an indoor pool and a garden, around 5.5 km from Sigiriya Rock. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation offers private check-in and check-out and bicycle parking for guests. The hosts at Shan Mango Homestay (Shoolini & her husband) were exceptional hosts! We were arriving very early in the day and when I told them about it, they allowed us to check in early in the morning and did not allow someone else to book the previous night (just so that they can have the rooms ready for us). They were willing to forgo an extra night's rent! While there, we were treated to delicious breakfast & dinner (they made vegetarian dishes for us). They have beautiful mango & passion-fruit trees. They gave us plenty of both to eat and take home with us. They also have a cute, little pool but we couldn't use it because it was raining most of the time we were there in Sigiriya The rooms and bathrooms were clean and we got plenty of hot water. The only small negative was that the pressure in the health-faucet & wash basin were a little low. We told them about it and they said they will look into it Overall, highly recommended!
