“perfect”
We had a perfect stay! The room was very clean and cozy. The pool was just perfect after a long hike in the rainforest. The staff also organized our rainforest tour, which was such a nice experience. Good food and you can watch monkeys right from the terrace. I really can recommend to stay at this hotel and also wandering around the beautiful surrounding area.

The location is good, right next to where the walking tours to Sinharaja rainforest start. The private superior rooms were very nice, well equipped and very clean. The mattresses were very soft, not much hot water in the shower. The garden and pool were great. Food was delicious but communication with restaurant staff was a bit complicated. It was not very clear when the restaurant is open and when you can order or not,we received different information from different staff members, resulting in having to wait for food for over an hour and one staff member getting upset because we didn't want to order the buffet. Besides that, it is a very nice place and good value for money.

The location of the property is quite amazing, situated right next to the Petideniya entrance. Dorm rooms were clean and comfortable. The dining area was well appointed. The breakfast which was included in the price was good value. Having a pool when you are paying for a dorm bed feels quite luxurious!

“Great location, very relaxing”
Sinharaja hostel is located near the forest! You can hear the jungle animals, which is really relaxing. The hostel organised a tour (6 hours more or less) which leads you to two waterfalls. Had an amazing time over there!

“Fabulous immersion into nature”
The pool is gorgeous! Totally surrounded by nature. The place feels like a nice hotel aside from the dorm room factor (which I ended up having to myself!). The staff work very hard and are very accommodating. Breakfast included was a big win and it’s all you can eat buffet :)

De location is perfect, the nature is amazing. Also the swimming pool was very nice. Tikiri works in the restaurant and he was so friendly. If it was just him we would definitely rate a 10/10.

Loved my stay here, it was very peaceful and in the middle of nature. The accommodation offers trips into the national park, my guide was very knowledgeable. They offer a great range of food options at the restaurant, the host is very friendly and welcoming.

I went there for one night and did the 7 hour tour through the jungle. There was only one other guest so it was a little bit lonely. The food was good and the room was nothing special but all right. I’d say if all 6 beds are full it might be really full because the room is not that big. Our guide was gorgeous, please tip them because they only get 2000 rupees from the 12000 you pay.

“Good facilities for the rate, gets the real rain forest experience”
The forest tour that was organized by the owner was great, we requested for a short tour as our stay was short. Owner was good enough to accommodate our need, thanks. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and well versed in English. We loved the peacefulness when it hits dark, the hotel and surrounding were extremely quite, the only noises we heard were the insects and frog, we loved the serenity. Food was good and quick. We loved the location of the open restaurant, it was raining at the time, we got real rain forest experience. Rooms are spacious, clean and tidy. We loved the hospitality of the staff. There is nothing to complaint. We would definitely go there once again with kids when we can.
