Sigiri Rainbow Lodge

Host was genuinely so helpful and kind, nothing was any trouble. Organised our safari and taxi to colombo for a great price. Close to the town, walking distance or a short tuk tuk away. Quiet and calm and very clean.

Only shame was there was no sheet to sleep with as a blanket (because of the heat likely!) felt abit strange to sleep without a cover but I'm sure if I'd asked, it would of been provided but I had a large scarf I used just to help fall asleep.

This is a cute little property right next to most of the cafés and restaurants. It’s a great value for money and we specially loved it because of the personal touch that the owners left. Sharat is a great man and is always ready to help. And not to miss, their extremely generous breakfast buffet that you must try if you are staying here. They also gifted us cute elephant carvings as a farewell gift☺️

The AC in our room was a bit dated, but Sharat sir helped us with it, so it wasn’t a problem. We had a great sleep.

good location, very nice owner, helped me with everything I asked for, good breakfast and many amenities

The hotel is close to restaurant and lions rock (5 mins in tuk tuk). The host was really helpful, he helped us with the organization. He was taking care of everything and we felt really nice and safe. I really do appreciate the hospitality here 🙏🏻. The breakfasts were really tasty!!

We absolutely loved our stay at Sigiri Rainbow Lodge! ❤️ The property is surrounded by so much greenery, with beautiful trees and a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. It feels like a little escape into nature, while still being incredibly convenient. One of the best things about the location is that it is very close to the main road and the bus stop, making it easy to get around. There are also several lovely cafés and restaurants nearby where you can enjoy authentic and delicious Sri Lankan food. The biggest highlight for us was the proximity to Sigiriya Lion Rock — it’s only about a 5–10 minute walk, which made visiting the attraction extremely convenient. The service was excellent, and the entire property was quiet, cozy, and free from any disturbance. It’s the kind of place where you can truly slow down, relax, and enjoy your surroundings. We would especially recommend Sigiri Rainbow Lodge for a couples’ getaway, a peaceful family stay, or anyone looking for a cozy retreat surrounded by nature. 🌴✨

The bathroom should have better lighting and buckets.

The bathroom should have a little brighter lighting and buckets.

The room size is big.

The toilet floor was always wet, water didn't drain.

La ubicación cerca del dentro y en un entorno natural increíble

Carina , in pieno centro ! Immersa nel verde!

Per rapporto qualità prezzo era ottima !

Only good thing is there is a good restaurant infront of this hotel.

- Owner could have been caring - he never bothered about us and room was suffocating - all mattered to owner was just payment

We had a great one-night stay! The hospitality was excellent, the place was clean and safe.Very comfortable stay and highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hospitality

The beds were quite comfortable and staff were helpful.

The shower in the toilets were really rusty and the handle for the door to the toilets was broken. Also toilets tissue and hand soap weren't provided so had to ask the staff.

Tesis merkeze çok yakın konumu güzel. Fiyatı uygun ve ev sahibi çok iyi bir insan bize uygun fiyata çok güzel özel araç ayarladı

Das Personal sehr höflich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage wirklich super, trotzdem ruhig inmitten eines sehr gepflegten Gartens. Obwohl das Hotel ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen zu sein schein, ist es dennoch sehr gut gepflegt und absolut sauber. Alles da was man so braucht.

Einige Dielen standen etwas hoch und die Badezimmertür ließ sich nicht abschließen.

It is in a great location to be able to walk to all the sights and the man running it is so lovely and has great advice on things to do and how to get around

Struttura carina. Camere spaziose, ma il bagno necessita di miglioramenti. Nel complesso rapporto qualità-prezzo buono. Host super gentili e disponibili.

The green surroundings

Locks needing repair/replacement. Light bulbs blown or flickering Floor board needing repairs

Lage war sehr gut. Der Host war sehr nett und hilfsbereit, er ist mit uns zum Pidurangala Rock gefahren und hat auch so lange auf uns gewartet bis wir fertig waren. Zimmergröße war ideal mit angenehmen Balkon.

Wir hatten Ameisenstraßen im Badezimmer und Geckos im Zimmer. Hat uns selber für den Preis nicht arg gestört. Allerdings hatten die Kissen einen unangenehmen Geruch. Weshalb ich mit einem T-Shirt auf dem Kissen geschlafen habe.

Le cadre emplacement idéal grande chambre la climatisation le personnel tres gentil et de bons conseils

Desayuno muy bien de precio. Las habitaciones estaban bien!!!

We booked another room we got another . There was a woman we sk about it she ask if we dont happy what they give us we can get out from them property 🤮

Very close to the Lion Rock entrance and a good coffee spot (so close that I got takeaways to go with breakfast). Good breakfast. Room was large.

Bathroom was very basic and the room lighting was low.

For us, Rainbow Lodge ticked all the boxes, great location (walking distance to Lion Rock, restaurants/bars), spotlessly clean and spacious room and bathroom. Set back from the main road in a beautiful tropical garden, amazing breakfast. Extremely helpful and friendly host, Sarath, and staff. Highly recommended

Everything was great

Lovely hotel located in a beautiful garden behind the main street. Big balcony outside our room. Our host was very friendly and helpful.

Nothing really.

Great hosts. Big rooms. Close to everything you need

Nothing

We had a wonderful stay at Sigiri Rainbow Lodge. Everything was perfect from the very beginning. The room was very clean and comfortable, with hot water and everything we needed. The territory of the hotel is beautiful, green and peaceful. The location is great, everything is within walking distance. There are nice cafes nearby, and even Lion Rock is very close. You can easily go for a walk and feel safe and relaxed. The breakfast was delicious, and they were very attentive to our preferences. But the most special part of our stay was the owners. They are incredibly kind, caring and supportive people. They truly care about their guests and always try to help in every situation. We felt very welcomed and comfortable here. Highly recommended!❤️

Nothing, everything was great!

L'emplacement est fabuleux. Entre l'entrée et la sortie du Lion rock et près de tous les restaurants un peu en retrait de la rue principale ce qui est parfait pour un peu plus de calme. La grandeur de la chambre était impressionnante ( grande chambre , salle de bain et terrasse ) Personnel accueillant, souriant et à l'écoute sans être trop insistant lors des propositions d'activité comme le safari. La chambre n'était pas munie d'une bouilloire mais elle nous a été fournie sur demande.

Présence de fourmis sur un mur de la salle de bain mais c'est normal puisque le toit n'est pas scellé sur le mur. Aucune n'a été retrouvé dans la chambre et ce n'était pas dérangeant. À notre arrivée, les fenêtres avaient été laissées ouvertes donc la chambre était humide mais nous avons réussi à régler la situation avec la climatisation

Really enjoyed the stay I here on my birthday. Host was very welcoming and made some great friends

Good staff, location, room

Nothing

Lo que mas nos gustó fue que el hotel estaba cerca del Lions Rock, el desayuno estaba muy bueno y el servicio en muy bien.

Nos decepcionaron las duchas, un baño estaba en malas condiciones; picaporte roto, puerta que no cerraba bien y lavabo medio roto. También en una de ellas encontramos un par de cucarachas. Además, nos cobraron algunas botellas de agua que pensábamos que era cortesía (como en el resto de los hoteles).

Hôte très serviable et très gentil! Emplacement au top! Chambre ok mais un peu délabrée notamment dans la salle de bain, qui sentait fort l’humidité et qui mériterait quelques réparations!

Een Uiterst vriendelijke gastheer, discreet aanwezig en heel dienstverlenend. Leuke restaurants naast de deur. Goed lokaal ontbijt. De lodge heeft een koloniale uitstraling.

Wij waren heel tevreden over de prijs kwaliteit verhouding!

The location was excellent and really close to the Rock Fortress and other sites as well as the centre

Sarath el dueño del hotel fue encantador, nos organizo tours y tuk tuks a super buen precio ademas estuvo atento con todo lo que necesitamos. El sitio estaba bién la habitación era muy grande y cumplia con las fotos

De prijs en locatie!

Locals zaten op het bankje naast onze kamer en konden de geur reuken van rook… Daarnaast kwam er geen warm water

Die Lage war super, das Personal sehr freundlich, schöner Blick ins Grüne

Die Matratze war nicht so bequem

Quiet location with a lovely garden with playing monkeys. Good breakfast ! The owner and his wife did everything to make it comfortabel for us. Outside there are plenty of restaurants and bar to enjoy within short walking distance

We would highly recommend this charming lovely place

Sarat is an incredible host and went above and beyond when we stayed here and was very attentive! Really comfortable bed aswell. Location is fab just off the main road and easy access to restaurants and about 10 mins walk to viewing of lion rock! Was lovely to be surrounded by the jungle at night especially seeing the monkeys at breakfast. Has a lovely balcony area looking into the jungle too.

Room was basic but had everything that you need for a few nights stay.

We had an outstanding stay at Sigiri Rainbow Lodge, which we’d easily rate around 9 to 9.5 out of 10. 1. Unbeatable Location Just a short, picturesque walk from the entrance to Sigiriya Rock (around 1 km), this charming lodge puts you right in the heart of the action. Other key sites like the Sigiriya Museum and Pidurangala Rock are also within easy reach. 2. Spacious & Refreshingly Simple Rooms Our room was refreshingly spacious, clean, and comfortable—with a balcony or patio opening to quiet garden views. The simple décor includes essentials like a desk, a dining area, air conditioning, and thoughtful extras like mosquito nets and free toiletries. 3. Warm, Helpful Hosts The owner and staff were exceptionally friendly and eager to help. 4. Excellent Value & Breakfast We felt the pricing offered true value. They offered breakfast at 7:30 AM but as ours was a short stay and had other plans, we had to skip breakfast. 5. Pleasant Amenities & Atmosphere The property features a lovely garden, outdoor seating, and a calm ambiance—almost like staying in a jungle retreat. Despite feeling tucked away, it’s still very close to local attractions and dining options.

Our rooms could have been together. The three rooms we booked were not next to each other which is what we preferred but this is hardly a dent in the overall stay and experience.

L'extrême gentillesse de l'hôtel ainsi que sa discrétion. Nous donne de bonnes idées de balade.lits confortables. Très belle maison. Emplacement top à 20 mn à pied de l'entrée de Sigirya. Très bon petit déjeuner.

Ras

I proprietari sono super gentili, accoglienti, sorridenti e disponibili. Sempre pronti a soddisfare le richieste. Grazie. Posizione del lodge ottimale su una strada laterale lontana dai rumori della strada principale, posizionata in un bel giardino. Stanze ampie pulite e ben arredate.

Hele fijne accomodatie, in het centrum. Super vriendelijk personeel en een hele ruime, mooie kamer. De accomodatie was ook mooi omringt met planten en bomen! Zag er heel leuk uit

Niks, alles was goed!

Die Rainbow Lodge hat eine gute Lage abseits des Trubels von Sigiriya. Man konnte hier die Ruhe genießen oder auch zu Fuß nach Sigiriya spazieren. Der Lions Rock war fußläufig schnell erreichbar. Die Zimmer waren geräumig und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Es gab ein reichhaltiges Frühstück und der Besitzer war sehr hilfsbereit bei allen Fragen und Problemen.

Everything was just perfect! Staff: The staff members were truly wonderful — kind, helpful, and thoughtful at every step. They made me feel welcome and well taken care of throughout my stay. Cleanliness: Top hygiene! The entire room was spotless — from the walls and floors to the cupboards, bed, bathroom, and toilet. Everything looked freshly cleaned and well-maintained. Comfort: There was running hot water at all times, and the air conditioning kept the room comfortably cool, even during the hotter parts of the day. Safety & Atmosphere: As a solo traveler, I felt safe and at home here. The warm environment and respectful staff really made a difference. Overall: An excellent experience. Clean, comfortable, and supported by genuinely kind staff. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Surroundings: This is not a discomfort, but something to keep in mind: you are surrounded by nature. Throughout the day, you'll hear birds and other animals, which adds to the charm. In the early morning, if your room is on the upper floor, you might even hear monkeys running across the roof — a unique and memorable experience!

Der Chef war wirklich sehr nett und hat uns gute Tipps für Ausflüge und ein Restaurant gegeben. Die Lage war super, wir konnten zu Fuß zum Lions Rock laufen. Viele Restaurants waren fußläufig erreichbar.

Unser Zimmer war recht groß, das Bett war aber sehr klein und die Matratze hart. Die Badtür ließ sich nicht richtig schließen und wir hatten sehr viele Ameisen im Zimmer. Das Geländer vom Balkon diente eher der Deko als der Sicherheit.

La ubicación es excelente, muy cerca de la roca del leon, los propietarios del hotel son encantadores y muy atentos. El hotel es muy bonito, con mucho encanto y muy limpio. Cogimos el safari a Minneriya con ellos y fue todo genial! Muy recomendable

Die Lage, nah am Lions Rock ist super

Hele ruime en nette kamer! Hygiënisch goed in orde. De gastheer was zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Heel dichtbij de lion rock. Zeker een aanrader. Restaurant ernaast van de broer is ook heel erg lekker!

Niks

the property is new and has a nice outside area, it is set off the main street so it feels as if you are in the jungle but conveniently situated close by to all the main attractions and restaurants.

Great location that's really easy to get to key activities like Pidurangala Rock and Sigiriya for sunrise. The room was quiet and as per the description/images. There is an excellent restaurant across the road (Liya Restaurant) which I would highly recommend for breakfast/dinner!

Clean, spacious, comfortable room. Great location and nice surroundings. Stuff was very lovely and helpful with arranging transport and activities! Would definitely recommend this place

Einfache Lodge in guter Lage. Die Ausstattung ist spärlich, gerade dass es eine Klimaanlage gibt. Aber für 1-2 Nächte ist das ok. Das Frühstück ist üppig und gut, einheimisch und preiswert. Der Besitzer der Lodge ist sehr freundlich und vertrauenswürdig. Man ist hier gut aufgehoben. Die Klimaanlage hat bei uns nichts (mehr) extra gekostet, dafür aber hat 1 Liter Trinkwasser pro Tag extra gekostet. Allgemein hat man in Sigiriya relativ viele Mosquitos, auch schon beim Frühstück. Aber der Ausblick auf den Lion Rock ist alles wert. Wenn man zu Fuß zum Pidurangala möchte, geht man besser Richtung Stadtausgang und nach ein paar Metern rechts Richtung Lion Rock Parkplatz. Das ist kürzer als durch die Stadt und man ist in einer guten halben Stunde am Fuß des Bergs. Der Ausblick oben ist mega, der Eintritt kostet nur 3 Euro, für den Lion Rock werden unverschämte 35 Euro aufgerufen.

Super nice owner! The rooms are clean and decent (make sure you get the ones with AC though since not all of them have AC). When we arrived, no double room with AC was available so the owner gave us a family room instead for the same rate which was great. The breakfast was very good and copious!

Gentillesse et disponibilité des hôtes Emplacement idéal

Chambre et salle de bain très basiques. Il manque selon moi une table et une chaise à l’intérieur de la chambre.

De accomodatie ligt op loopafstand van leuke restaurantjes in Sigiriya. Verder was het ook erg dichtbij de Lion rock. De gastheer en dame waren super vriendelijk en regelde voor ons een Safari voor een goede prijs. Echt een aanrader!

Très bon emplacement. Chambre familiale spacieuse donnant sur joli jardin. Hôtel parfaitement entretenu par des hôtes très accueillants, sympathiques. Nombreuses informations sur les points d’attractions alentours. Petit déjeuner excellent.

Soba je bila jako prostrana, imali smo sve sto ne potrebno. Vlasnik je ljubazan. Dobra lokacija pored raznih restorana.

Moglo bi se uloziti u resavanje problema sa vlagom.

grande chambre, proximité site à visiter et restaurants, calme, propre et joli jardin d’accès

chambre bizarrement aménagée, la porte donnant directement sur le lit…

I loved this room. One of the best rooms I’ve stayed in thus far, in Sri Lanka. Very spacious and extremely comfortable. It was a super convenient location as everything was within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again. The owners were nice and accommodating. It was such a quiet and serene place. I highly recommend it.

There was a bit of confusion during the check in process as I was initially given a room I didn’t book. I expressed to the owners that wasn’t the room I booked and they checked their system and quickly remedied the matter. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Sarat goes above and beyond to take care of his guests. The level of care was truly remarkable. Breakfast is excellent. Rooms were spacious, property was beautiful, and you really can't get much closer to town/Sigiriya.

Nothing really given the price!

Near the lion rocks.

Bad wifi.

A szállás adó szuper kedves volt , a motorját is fel akarta ajánlani miközben én csak bukó sisakot kértem kölcsön! A szoba mérete nagy tágas , tiszta ! A háznak nagyon jó a hangulata ! Szép tiszta a kert ! Ajánlani tudom minden Sigiriyaban tartózkodó vendégnek

Nem tudok mondani ilyen dolgot

Lovely host, great location, clean room and bathroom.

We didn't get the requested room, even after double checking via message pre arrival.

It is a really nice location, with a balcony, the light is incredible at night and morning. The family is really helpful with everything.

Everything was great.

The location is perfect! You won't be disappointed if you order the breakfast. The price is great, as long as you keep in mind you get what you pay for. The owner is wonderful and really helpful, he will arrange different experiences for you, and give you lots of suggestions to fill your time.

We understood that we were going to be staying at very basic accommodations, but the room we had looks nothing like the pictures. It really needs some paint touch ups and some bathroom improvements.
