Great stay

Thal Sewana has absolutely great location (few minutes walk to both rocks, no need of tuk tuk), room was clean, breakfast was homemade and very nice. But the best part of this place is lady who owns the property. She is very nice person who helps you with everything and give you any advise you need 🙂

Sigiriya’s best hospitality and proximity to Pidurangala!

Beautiful cozy oasis in Sigiriya! Located so conveniently to Pidurangala :) perfect to walk there in less than 10 mins to start your hike (I recommend sunrise). Ladies, and solo ladies in particular, this is your spot, trust me! The owner here is an incredibly lovely human who will look after you. Food is delicious. Just book it :-D

Highly Recommended!!!

Excellent location in a quiet area, close to attractions. The lady arranged all the transportation we needed. In addition, she also prepared an excellent lunch and breakfast for us, served us water, natural juice, fresh fruit, in short, everything. The lady was like a second mother to us. Great experience, highly recommended!

Perfect location for Pidurangala hike.

It is very nearby the Pidurangala Rock, so it was the perfect location to start our Sunrise hike at 5 o‘clock.

Home away from home.

Thal Sewana was one of our favourite accomodations during our two weeks of travelling through Sri Lanka. - perfect location: a five minute walk from the house to the Pidurangala entry, on the street you have a beautiful view of the Lion‘s rock and it is ten minute drive to Sigiriya town - nice room: it had everthing we needed - the food: breakfast was delicious and it was nice that we could have dinner when we arrived late - THE HOSTS: it felt as if we belonged to the family. They did everything to make sure we were well fed, happy and informed. Even though we were only there for two nights, Thal Sewana felt like a home away from home. We loved the accomodation, the hosts and Jack, the dog of course. We would definitely come back.

Wonderful homestay

Thal Sewana is a great place to stay, it is easy to walk to Pidurangala and Lion Rock, but what really makes this place special is the host, Wasanti. Our stay here started with a warm welcome, our room was simple and clean, providing a great place to rest. The garden is a pleasant area to relax and the patio area is lovely to enjoy your meals. Wasanti, has great knowledge of the local area and is a calm, kind person and it was a pleasure to spend time here with her.

Great place to stay for walkable distance to two rocks.

The lady Aunty who manages the property was an excellent host. She was a very friendly lady and took great care of us. She prepared and served fresh Sri Lankan breakfast which was delicious. The hotel is a walkable distance to Sigiriya Rock and Pidurangala Rock.

Possibly the water in the washroom could have been Hot. Also, a little far from the restaurants, but the hosts also offer lunches and dinner at their property.

amazing!

My sister and I’ve had the best time staying at Thal Sewana. The location is great if you want to do the lion rock or the Pidurangala rock hike. The owner, Wasanthi, is such a lovely woman and she made us feel at home. She helped us with all our questions and was great company too. I think as a solo traveller you would have an amazing stay too. A good friend of her, Chamith, is a tuktuk driver. He’s really nice too, fair prices and really helpfull. I will definitely go back to Thal Sewana when I go to Sigiriya again.

Warm place and good location for Pidurangala

Here property was located near the Sigiriya rock and Pidurangala. and here was large room, good working air conditioner and staff was very kind and warm. I was single traveller, so she makes me feel comfortable like my mom. also every morning she prepare the lovely breakfast. including tea or coffee, toast, various fruits, egg dish or sri lankan food. you can eat the breakfast at outdoor terrace and enjoy good moment. and there was a cute dog also.

I remember I visited here at October, hot water not working. but the weather was not cold. it was okay. and there were many flies in my room. I think the flies not bite person.

Wonderfully Peaceful Homestay

Saman is a brilliant hostess who could not have been more kind or helpful. The location is quiet and peaceful but is ideal for climbing Pidurangala and Sigiriya. Breakfast and dinner were tasty home prepared meals. Would recommend the homestay to friends and family

The best accommodation in Sigiriya!

The location was excellent - walking distance to both rocks. The host was wonderful and kindly organised various trips and train tickets for us. The food was, without question, the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka. The room was very comfortable - AC, hot shower, wifi. We were so sorry to leave. We loved our stay! We couldn’t have asked for anything more.

We promise you an unforgettable stay!

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at Thal Sewana Homestay - surely one of our most beautiful experiences, a human one above all. This charming guest house is managed by a lovely mother and her son. Two extraordinary people of an incomparable kindness and goodwill who made our stay a wonderful moment. We felt like at home! They have always lived there, so they will be of very good advice to help you visit the area in the best possible way! The house has 4 rooms, ideal to be in a quiet environment. The location is also ideal, located just between Lion's Rock (15 min walk from the entrance) and Pidurangala Rock (5 min walk from the entrance). 2 bonus points, they are divine cooks and the room is super affordable! If we have could, we would have put a grade of 10/5 - we will miss them so much! If you ever have the chance to visit Sigiriya, do not hesitate one second, you will never find better!!!

The best place in Sri Lanka

The best accommodation in Sri Lanka we have stayed! the location was perfect, very green and in the 5’ walking distance to the 2 rocks! Our host took great care of us and we felt like staying with a family member. Her food was also super tasty and very affordable. The room was very clean and comfy. This place is definitely one of our top reasons to come back to Sri Lanka!
