Incredibly kind family owners-I arrived super early having cycled there, they served me a delicious breakfast and got my room ready ASAP. Location is fab-you can enter Sigiriya rock via a back entrance (but it might be worth getting your entry ticket on your way to hotel as its a bit of a walk to the ticket office (inside the museum) once you are at the hotel. Easy walk into town/ restaurants. Room is basic but super clean,mini fridge, kettle provided and outdoor seating. All set in lovely garden.

A great secluded bungalow located close to Sigiriya Rock and an easy walk to the main road with restaurants. The view over the rice paddy was picturesque and there is also a nearby lake with good viewpoints. The owner was super friendly and helped us make the most of our stay, even with continuous rain for the 3 days we stayed. Recommend the elephant safari if you have time. Breakfast was also delicious!

This was our best accommodation so far in Sri Lanka. As a family we had two rooms, they were together, separate from the hosts home. The rooms are large with comfy beds and large clean bathrooms. There is a nice address to sit outside amongst the fruit trees and gardens. The host provided a great breakfast each morning

Situated 3.2 km from Sigiriya Rock, Ali Adi Eco Lodge features accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

This place is a hidden gem! Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and remained cool without air-con even in 37°C heat outside. The location is very peaceful, it's only a short drive from the main road but you are really immersed in the sounds of nature. The garden is a lovely spot to spend some time relaxing in a hammock watching the wildlife passing through, which includes many different bird and reptile species and if you're very lucky, even the occasional elephant! The owner is a lovely chap, and did his best to make sure we felt at home. He runs the place by himself and does a fantastic job, he cooked us a great Sri Lankan breakfast after taking us to Pidurangala rock for sunrise and he also offers cooking classes using a traditional wood fired stove and clay pots which we unfortunately didn't have time for. He clearly takes pride in and puts a lot of time into maintaining and improving his homestay. We definitely recommend Ali Adi eco lodge as an affordable and relaxing base to explore Sigiriya :)

    The pool is fantastic, in such a beautiful setting surrounded by wildlife. The gardens are more mature than the photos and are really beautiful. We only stayed one night but I would’ve liked to have stayed longer for this! The lodges are cool and the rooms are very spacious. We loved the coconut shades restaurant which had authentic food and the cappuccino cafe which is western but good if you’re feeling a bit homesick!

    The lodges are spacious and spotless, with comfy beds and crisp linens. large picture windows and a wooden veranda with a view of the bats flying home to roost at sunset. The setting is quite magical, with peacocks, monkeys, iguanas and mongooses inhabiting the grounds. There is a large and well maintained pool which is very welcome. The Sri Lankan breakfast is very tasty and a short walk away Wilhara restaurant serves great food. Great location from which to visit Lion Rock Sigiriya

    The owners of the lodge are the most friendly, caring and helpfull people to be found. Ajith and his wife made sure we were ok, needed anything and helped us with bookings for safari and finding restaurants and places to visit. The breakfast, served on the terrace outside your room was tasteful and great in variation. The lodge has fine, clean rooms, with comfortable beds and good working ac. We loved to watch te monkeys playing in the trees around the guesthouse and even on the balconies.

    It was a pleasure staying at Sigiri Lion Lodge! The location is great: central, but hidden from the main road and very close to Lion's Rock. Our host Ajith received us with a warm welcome and helped us organize a safari and transport to our next stop. We really enjoyed the breakfast served on a balcony overlooking the patio.
