It was a good stay. Ama,ing place and location. The meals they cooked were amazing with a beautiful view.

I am now very pleased to review this guesthouse. From any place you travel from to reach Sigirîya, you'll have to spend some time on dusty roads for the town, which exists only thanks to the continuous pilmgrimage of worldwide tourists, is kind of remote. At the scale of Sri Lanka at least. You'll find yourself on bumpy ways, navigate through deep tropical 'jungles', avoid elephants ready to jump on your face while hiding on the sides of the road when it's dark (yes particularly in this area !). So when you'll eventually arrive, all you want is to find a safe, welcoming and quiet place to reinvigorate yourself. That's exactly what this guesthouse is going to offer you! After your hard day, you'll just reach an oasis of calm plenty of beautiful paradisiacal flowers, elegant bungalow-like rooms, one of them in the garden being the main attraction of the house (see the picture). The owner is a dedicated person who will do literally everything to bring you comfort. Since he also grows rice and some vegetables in his garden, it is not totally impossible that elephants will come to... eat the rice (or try at least). Which is rather rare to be honest. However, they will be kept away with crackers and locals' fury. Nights, in Sigirîya in general, are picturesque for sure: Dogs suddenly scream, crackers boom all around, villagers switch their torches on at a distance to the point, you'll certainly ask yourself in the safety of your room: "Was there an elephant nearby tonight?"

Very sweet family, helpful, good room clean, I do recommend it.

Great location in a homely style accommodation, quiet, private and serviced by excellent people/family (including very friendly respectful children) fabulous home cooked meals, fresh tasty and personal service. As normal in Sri Lanka, had to aThey wilsk for a hand towel, bath mat and hairdryer. l have a new tree house villa ready soon. Can see Sigiriya Rock from the garden and only 10 minutes drive away.

It was good. Very basic with natural touch but very clean also. Luv it.

Wonderful people Beautiful Family run guest house super clean great communication Would recommend to everyone To enjoy the real Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

Room is ok big and new no icebox no blanket just a tin cotton sheet no hot pot for tee or coffee hard to find the place but near the Rock. For me this is not resort or hotel . Total room is just 3 room the owner did’t speck english . But friendly no ABF as we book with abf no shop near by so feed your self before come in.even no drinking water in room. It just like a home stay with a bit clean Then normal houese standard of Srilanka. Ps a lot of bug in night time also moskito

Easily the best accommodation I have stayed in during my three weeks in Sri Lanka. If you plan to see Sigirirya Lion Rock, stay here.

Super value for the money. Very nice and friendly family and they made different breakfasts for us every morning and it was delicious 😊 clean and enough space in the room. We stayed four nights. Carina and Anders

The hotel is walking distance to the lion rock. The rock can also be seen from the garden. U.G and his family were so kind and so welcoming. The rooms are impeccable and comfy. The food that was served was authentic. Wifi was excellent! We would recommend it to anyone!

It was amazing! So Sweet family, felt at home.

Sigiriya Rock Gate Resort is owned and run by the nicest family. The husband and wife are so welcoming and accommodating. As soon my friend and I had been dropped off at the small, but recently updated, resort we were made to feel welcome and part of the family. The family served us a delicious fresh orange juice from the oranges in their trees. The room was beautifully done and immaculately clean. The air conditioning was a welcome relief after a long tuk tuk ride. We ate dinner there and the husband made the best chicken fried rice and kottu. Yummy! The location cannot be beat. It was about a ten minute walk to the rock, which is a perfect thing to do when you wake up in the morning. From the back yard, there is a gorgeous view of the two rocks. Lovely new place to stay near Sigiriya. The owner spoke enough English to be very helpful and arrange various programs in the area.
