It was my first time staying in Sigiriya, and I left with a deep sense of satisfaction. Although the check-in process was initially overwhelming due to the large groups of guests, the exceptional hospitality from the staff quickly put me at ease.
Being able to enjoy such luxurious and delicious meals in the midst of Sigiriya's natural beauty, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, felt like a true indulgence. The hotel also offered live music performances at times, which added to the serene and relaxing atmosphere.
For anyone looking to unwind and immerse themselves in the beauty of nature, this hotel is the perfect choice. I would love to visit again in the futurer.

Certainly a nice and impressive hotel in many ways but frankly, I found the place to be overrated. Very commercialized and seems to have lost its charm and authentic beauty.
If you have no problem being with a bunch of other tourists, it wouldn’t be a problem, however, if you want a more down to earth place for tranquillity, there are other places you can go to.
Another thing - there are many many monkeys on site. Due to the structure of the building, they can be all around your balconies and can be quite dangerous. Some were quite aggressive.

The Heritance is like no other hotel you would have stayed at before. They are so seemlessly integrated with the jungle around them that you'll be able to experience the surrounding nature whilst staying at the hotel. The staff are all so accommodating and you can book cool dsy trip excursions at reasonable prices. The buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner were unbelieveably good. The lady that makes fresh hoppers is thr best!

We had a wonderful stay! The staff was friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The housekeeping staff was particularly lovely. We enjoyed the different towel animals they created. Our room was comfortable. The bathroom was quite spacious. And the onsite restaurants were delicious. We appreciated the wide variety of food available at breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel.

Wonderful location for a hotel. Fabulous views. Very good room. Only concern was the number of large groups staying there who dominated the restaurant.

Heritance Kandalama is worth visiting for the building alone - I can't remember being this moved by architecture. If the idea of a hotel built into forest, with sweeping views of lakes and mountains, and of sharing open corridors with monkeys and bats delights you, then you can't do better. The highpoint of our stay were our three tours (bird watching, jungle hike, and the free architectural tours - our birdwatching by boat tour was canceled on account of rain) with in-house naturalist Nalinda. Nalinda's vast knowledge and pride in the place (building and forest) made our walks with him one of the high-points of our time in Sri Lanka. Since elephants are roaming freely through the property, it isn't entirely safe to go walking without expert supervision. Thanks also to Lakmi who checked us in, and all the other staff, who looked after us wonderfully throughout our stay. My one suggestion: maybe install some kind of general tip box at reception so visitors have an easy way to thank the cleaners and cooks etc we don't interact with directly.
