Gangula Eco lodge

gutes Frühstück, Unterkunft liegt in der Natur, sehr Familiär, man hat sich Wohlgefühlt und die Lage war super

Etwas besser eingerichtet könnte es sein, sowie etwas sauberer…

朝食が美味しかったです。シーギリヤロックから近いのに、少し奥まったところに立地しているため、静かに滞在できました。

Wi-Fiは使えませんでした。

L’emplacement était incroyable, vous êtes à moins de 10 min à pied du lion rock. La famille est très accueillant et serviables. Elle nous a réserver un safari à bon prix, qui était incroyable. Le mari a un tuktuk alors il est facile de réserver avec lui pour les matinée si vous voulez faire le lion rock ou l’autre randonnée matinale. C’était très paisible tranquille sans bruit dans la nature tout en étant à deux pas du downtown. Ce lieux est charmant, toutefois assez rustique. Il s’agit d’une expérience immersive à la culture Sri Lankaise.

Le cabanon avec la petite terrasse Eau chaude franchement c’était trop bien L’accueil au top, merci beaucoup On m’a proposé le Safari au top à peine arrivé

Toutes les prises ne fonctionnait pas ( notamment pour la bouilloire ) Coupure d’électricité, mais bon ça dure deux minutes. Max Se faire réveiller pendant la nuit à cause de la proximité avec les singes

once they recieved my booking call me and forced to cancel. Dear Srilankas dont book their hotel . Tgey are forcing to cancel if you not agreed their rate in extra.

It was a great stay! We enjoyed being in the nature with monkeys on our terrasse. It was only a small path from the main road to the hostel. And it‘s very close to the sigiriya rock.

房主非常的友善，很積極的處理事情

住兩晚，第一間102水壓非常小，設備很多都損壞需要維修。 如果真的重視這些問題，相信我一定給滿分

close to all the restaurants & shops & easy to get to lions rock,, the family that runs the lodge are so kind, attentive & sweet! all the best to them:))

DISCLAIMER - The following negative review is NOT related to the lodge. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with the business & the accommodation that they provide,, this is just something that everyone who plans on visiting Sigiriya should know & be aware off. Again, this has nothing to do with the Gangula Eco Lodge or my experience there. In the middle of town, across the road from the ATM & the BARISTA cafe are two captive elephants. The people who own these elephants use them to entertain & profit of tourists - letting people ride them, bathe them, pet them & take photos with them - all for a fee of course. PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT OR CONDONE THIS. These elephants are abused & show clear signs of distress, they are chained up & left on the side of the road for people to gawk at until the next customer arrives. It is common & public knowledge that it is extremely unethical & barbaric for elephants to live in these conditions. There are still no laws or regulations in place to protect captive elephants in Asia so tourists & travelers need to do their part by being aware & knowledgeable of the mistreatment these animals have to endure as well as not supporting the people & organizations who profit of it. Please do your research before visiting sanctuaries, orphanages or any organizations that claim to care for elephants, as they can be quite deceiving with their marketing & advertisements - if they’re legitimate & truly care for the elephants wellbeing then there is absolutely no way that you can pay to have a close up encounter with one. If you plan to pay for or partake in an any sort of personal encounter with an elephant, whether that be in Sri Lanka or anywhere else in Asia, just know that you are directly funding an industry that profits of the neglect, abuse & suffering of these animals & will continue to do so until they can’t anymore.

Lieux calme et sympa. Super hôtes

Location is great. Very green and nice.

Room clean and nice. Good AC. Breakfast in the garden was super. Restaurants and shops very very close. Best relation of the price to quality.

Great property with kind staff. Cute kid and parents handle this property. All very kind and helpful

Lighting in the rooms are very low

Erg vriendelijke mensen. Willen je met liefde 's ochtends wegbrengen naar de hike en vroeg om een banaan en kreeg nog een bordje watermeloen mee. Ook iets later uitchecken (in het laagseizoen) was geen enkel probleem. Toen ik in de middag terug kwam gaf ze aan dat ik nog netjes gebruik mocht maken van de douche, ze had de kamer speciaal nog even zo gelaten voor me.

Helaas spreken ze niet zo goed engels waardoor ze me naar de verkeerde berg brachten. Check dat dus goed met de of ze het helemaal begrijpen. Kamer is wat gedateerd maar helemaal prima voor deze prijs. De yoga foto is denk ik een random foto van gasten, volgens mij geen standaard activiteit.

Quite position, surrounded by trees, birds and sometimes monkeys came on the roof. The hosts have been nice, giving me suggestions about surroundings and satisfying all my request.

The room was not very clean, with dust and sand a bit everywhere. The water from the shower had smell of sulfur.

La familia muy agradable. Las instalaciones muy bonitas en medio de la naturaleza. El desayuno te lo sirven en una cabañita muy maja y muy bueno, esos rotis de Coco buenísimos. La ubicación muy buena, al lado de una calle principal y al lado de la roca de león. La entrada es regular a la casa, lleva el móvil a mano para iluminar tu camino

One of the better places I stayed in here in Sri Lanka! Peaceful yet right in town. Great breakfast too!

Nothing

Lieve mensen

Viel niet tegen maar het kan ietsjes schoner

La ubicación y el entorno es totalmente idílico. Ver a de restaurantes y tiendas. Nos ayudaron a contratar actividades. Las personas eran muy amables y el desayuno estaba muy rico.

Cuando llegamos estaba lleno y nos realojaron en una habitación bastante regular en cuanto a comodidades. Finalmente nos hicieron un descuento en el precio pero deberían indicar en Booking que están llenos.

シーギリヤで2拍しました。 1泊¥3000程度の金額が安めの宿なので多くは期待しませんでしたが、家族経営のアットホームな宿で、朝食はフルーツも付いてとてもおいしかったです。 敷地から大通りに出るとすぐにスーパーやレストランがあるので、とても便利な場所だと思います。 裏には小川が流れており、森林に囲まれているので、猿多めです。

お湯はぬるかったですが、金額を考えるとこの程度かなと。 wifiは電波の入りも悪く、スピードも結構遅いので不便ではありましたが、のんびり旅行なので問題なかったです。

Breakfast and position. Also the jungle mood due to the forest around

A mouse ate a piece of my bag in the night while I was sleeping. The noise woke me up but didn't see the mouse. In the morning I found my bag chewed by the mouse.

The hosts are the most wonderful family. We arrived after a long journey and were welcomed with tea and smiles. Our room looked over a little stream and we could watch the monkeys and peacocks, and just felt immersed in nature. The location was amazing, just 15 mins walk to the Sigiriya ticket office and close to lots of great restaurants. The hosts also run a restaurant called Lake View Point which was delicious wirh stunning views! They arranged an amazing safari for us and every day we were welcomed home with warmth. We loved it.

Nothing!

The whole stay was perfect. The location close to all the shops. Our room was clean and had jungle view, we sat outside and watched the the monkeys doing their thing! The family are LOVELY! They consistently checked on us and really cared about our safety, giving advise each day. The breakfast was delicious! Highly recommend staying here

Very welcoming and friendly family that run the place. The accommodation lies in the midst of jungle, with all things that come with that :) The breakfast was fine, well served and housing location is close by the main touristic area, yet you do not hear the street noise. The host can help to arrange (touristic) things and/or connect you to other businesses.

Unfortunately our stay has been hindered by the presence of "some animal" in between the ceiling and the roof, which was making a lot of noise and squeaky cries. Some debris fell inside our room through holes in the ceiling. That has been disturbing, and did not help to have a relaxing sleep. Cleanliness can improve and we found the bathroom being rather smelly.

Cozy little homestay with decent rooms a block down a dirt road from the main street and restaurant area. Nice breakfast and family.

Some things there might be considered well used, like chairs. Didn’t bother me, but might some.

Location , and the owners were really friendly

Nothin

家族経営でアットホームな雰囲気。みんなとてもやさしかったし、朝食もおいしかった。

部屋のコンセントが一つしか使えなかった。ゴミ箱にゴミが残っていて、ゴキブリが現れたり、夜中に猫とネズミが屋根裏で走り回っていた。Wi-Fiがない。

The family were very nice, friendly, and helpful, we had a great time. The location was perfect

All good.

Personnel très accueillant Très bon petit déjeuner et copieux Ils nous ont organisé un safari a Hurulu pour 23K Rs pour deux personnes et jeep privée. Très bonne localisation

Pas d eau chaude

Laut durch Bars der Umgebung. Sehr hellhörig,an verstand jedes Wort im Nachbarzimmer.

Отличное расположение, недалеко от центральной дороги, но там очень тихо, если не считать шум от обезьян) магазины, кафе все рядом. хозяева очень дружелюбные, не назойливые. Наши две ночевки прошли отлично.

Скажу сразу, что жилье очень недорогое с отличным расположением. Поэтому минусы укажу, но цена качество все окей. В номере пахло сыростью и это исправить наверное будет крайне непросто, так как там тень . водопровод нужно починить, трубу просто выдавило из тройника и воды в душе не было. Полез сам , нашел по приличному ручью откуда льет , вставил трубу на место. Завтрак лучше что-то классическое , омлет чай фрукты.

Super séjour. Famille accueillante et bienveillante. Chambre propre. Très bon petit déjeuner. Maison situé au fond d’une petite impasse donc au calme de l’agitation de la rue principale mais sans être trop éloigné de la ville et du rocher (nous y sommes aller à pied). Les propriétaires tiennent le restaurant Léon juste de l’autre côté de la rue (nous ne l’avons pas testé)

De rust in de tuin, de nabijheid bij leuke eettentjes en barretjes, lekker ontbijt

Soms een stroomstoring en dan geen warm water, maar daar kan niemand wat aan doen...

Freundlichkeit der Gastgeber. Organisierten Transport vom Flughafen-Sigiriya. Die Lage inmitten der Natur. Restaurants, Bars und Läden. Sehenwürdigkeiten schnell erreichbar.

Dusche, WC sehr dunkel.

朝食が美味しかった。 朝は無料でシギリヤロックまで送ってくれた。 立地がよく、大通りは食事やコンビニがすぐそこ。

洗濯はできるという口コミがあったが出来なかった。 コンセントがゆるゆる、ほぼ刺さらないのと一緒なので工夫しましょう。

Le lieu se trouve très proche de l'entrée pour le Sigiriya. C'est calme, propre. Vous pouvez demander aux adorables propriétaires de faire préparer le petit déjeuner, il est local, délicieux et en large portion !

Le débit d'eau de la douche est faible mais suffisant pour se laver.

Location is great Breakfast is tasty Host(Bhandare) is sooooo kind and his family so welcoming Hearing monkeys climb on the roof all the time

That I only stayed 2 days

Tout le confort nécessaire au cœur du village Petit dej au top Je recommande

Bardzo mili właściciele, pomocni. Klimatyzacja nowa i super działa. Jest możliwość zamówienie przejazdu tuktukiem od właściciela w dobrych cenach. Śniadanie domowe, dobre dla osób lubiących słodkie śniadania. W okolicy wiele restauracji i bardzo blisko Sigiriya Rock.

Mogłoby być lepsze ciśnienie wody w prysznicu, ale nie jest to znaczący problem.

Tuktuk

It was a great value for money for me. The family is quite lovely and help me with lot of information. They were so awesome that they gave a free coffee to one of my guests who visited me. I even made a friend with one of their kid. He is fun to talk to.

Nothing really. Just the place is little beaten up, but gives little traditional feel.

Lovely garden and the host family was really nice and helpful. Great location, good price. Would stay there again!

Immersa nel verde , personale molto gentile , posizione perfetta per visitare la lion’s rock o piradangala, colazione buona

The host family were incredibly sweet and generous. They offered us a ride to Sigiriya rock and even to Dambulla after check out. The room itself is sufficient enough for a short stay. We had no problems at all and there was even hot water in the room.

N/A

La posizione, la disponibilità degli host e la tranquillità di essere immersi nel verde. Colazione molto buona!!

Una attenzione maggiore alla pulizia del letto sarebbe stato un plus

Struttura immersa nel verde, a due passi dalla strada principale e non troppo distante dall’ingresso della Lion’s Rock. Camera spaziosa. Personale super gentile; appena arrivati il proprietario si è reso disponibile ad accompagnarci in Tuk Tuk a Polonnaruwa. Consigliatissimo anche il ristorante Chill Bro, in cui lavora il proprietario.

Pulizia migliorabile. Essendo immerso nella natura, c’è la possibilità che entrino insetti/animali in camera. Noi sentivamo animali correre sul tetto. Ovviamente questo non dipende assolutamente da loro.

Herzliche Familie, gemütliche Hütten, gutes Frühstück auf erhöhter Terrasse.

WLAN schwach, kein warmes Wasser in der Dusche

Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Die Unterkunft ist einfach, aber fussläufig zum Löwenfels gelegen. Unser Highlight war das tolle Frühstück im Garten mitten in der Natur!

La familia que lo lleva es un encanto! Nos ayudaron con todo, nos recomendaron el mejor parque nacional para la época, ya que los elefantes van cambiando y nos lo organizaron ellos con un conductor de jeep muy bueno. Además nos gestionaron la visita a Polonaruwa por un muy buen precio. Todo el rato fueron muy amables y predispuestos. Tienen un restaurante bastante cerca con muy buena comida. La habitación tenía mosquitera y aire acondicionado (todo un lujo!!! Necesario) y el ambiente era muy familiar. Estábamos rodeados de animales y vegetación, monos, ardillas, pájaros, que hicieron la estancia más auténtica. Además, está muy cerca de la calle principal, pero lo suficientemente alejado como para que no haya ruido. 100% recomendado!!!

Ottima colazione in mezzo alla natura. Vicino a ristoranti e Lion Rock. Proprietari accoglienti.

Migliorabile la pulizia. Condizionatore rumoroso.

It’s a very peaceful place, surrounded by nature. The rooms are good size, the bathroom is okay, there is hot water, which is not always the case in Sri Lanka, Wi-fi is okay.

Heel gastvrij en prima voor de prijsklasse. Prima kamer en dichtbij alles. De eigenaar heeft een tuc tuc, hij brengt je voor een scherp prijsje overal, echt top!

Nous avons beaucoup aimé l'emplacement dans un renfoncement proche de la rue principale, l'endroit est silencieux. Il y a un grand jardin où des singes et peacock viennent se reposer! Tout les membres de la famille se mettent en œuvre pour les invités.

Das Guesthouse liegt sehr ruhig im Grünen, aber nur ein paar Minuten zu Fuss von Laeden und Restaurants entfernt. Unser Zimmer war sehr sauber und es gab auch keine Tiere wie in anderen Kommentaren erwähnt. Die Gastgeber sind sehr hilfsbereit und er hat uns mit seinem Tuktuk auch rumgefahren. Wir waren sehr zufrieden!

Das Bad ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen

Mi è piaciuto il rapporto qualita/prezzo e per la posizione molto comoda per la rocca di Sigiriya. La colazione è abbondante. L'host ci ha aiutato ad organizzare il safari a Minneriya.

Paragonato agli standard igienici e di confort dell'Asia minore, l'unico problema rilevato è un cattivo odore risalente dal bagno, sopportabile chiudendo la porta del bagno.

The family was very welcoming and nice! Breakfast they prepared for us was great! Rooms were clean, furnished with beds with side-tables, hangers and a little cabinet. The Lion rock was just 10 min. By walk! If you look for a simple, low cost accomodation at the local family go for it!

Lovely owners, good AC, super close to Sigirija, some shops and restaurants and an amazing breakfast made by the owner.

At first, we didn’t have a toilet paper.

Casa in mezzo al verde,a due passi dai ristoranti e dalla via principale. Personale super gentile,ci siamo sentiti come in famiglia. Super consigliato

Abbiamo amato la quiete del posto e la gentilezza della famiglia che ci ha ospitato. Colazioni ottime e il posto tra alberi, piante suoni della giungla. Abbiamo visto scimmie e uccelli colorati. La famiglia ci ha accolto in modo molto amichevole. La posizione ottima sia per andare a Sigirya che a Pidurangala. Vicinissima alla strada principale in cui ci sono i ristornanti. La guest house rimane un posto tranquillo, dove poter riposare bene e sentirsi a casa

Lieux parfait pour les amoureux de la nature. On peut voir beaucoup d'espèces d'oiseaux différentes juste depuis la chambre. La gérante est très sympa et prévenante. Emplacement parfait.

Chambres assez rustiques. Les équipements commencent à vieillir et seraient vraiment à reprendre.

It’s lovely family-run accommodation in a serene jungle environment. All facilites were comfortable, breakfast was delicious and the staff were lovely.

Just bear in mind that it’s better for your taxi to drop you off at the street, as it’s a little narrow for cars. It’s not far to walk.

Everything was lovely! I arrived here super late at night - i was meant to go to a different accomodation but when I arrived it was so bad so i left straight away - then i found this place. As soon as I arrived even thought it was last minute booking they arranged the room for me and even a Tuk Tuk for the day after in the morning and safari! The room was super clean and nice! Also the family was super lovely. I Highly recommend this place ❤️

Excelente lugar para hospedarse, la familia super amable y el lugar es perfecto , está cerca del centro y naturaleza alrededor. El desayuno espectacular, bueno, bonito y barato

Polite and hospitable hosts. The room is comfortable. Good breakfast.

部屋は綺麗でお値段も安く洗濯物も干せます。　　　 オーナー夫婦はとても感じが良く、奥さんの笑顔がとても素敵です。子供達も可愛いです。ご飯もスリランカの家庭料理がとても美味しかったです。シギリヤの宿でおすすめです!

ないです。

The surroundings, it was fantastic with lush green forest-like garden with big trees, can watch peacocks and monkeys while you having breakfast. A small stream flowing just behind the cottage. Beautiful caring family. Awesome breakfast 👌 with lots of fruits. Very polite and helpful. Good location, 1 km from the rock palace.

Bathroom was not up to date, bedsheets and towel were old, smelly. Insufficient lighting in the room.

Hôte accueillant et disponible Chambre confortable Très bien situé. Nous avons même pû visiter les sites alentours a pieds

Rapport qualité prix exceptionnel ! La famille est vraiment très gentille et serviable ! L’emplacement est top, dans le centre ville avec de bons restaurants accessible à pied ! Je recommande fortement

We enjoyed everything about our stay. The owners are lovely and super helpful with the activities, the breakfast in the morning is really good, and the location is right in the centre of the city.

The location is wonderful. The family are warm, friendly, and helpful. There are so many trails that people could explore and visit different villages who are serving good food. Authentic Sri Lankan local food! Just be careful of the wild elephants roaming around at night.

The neighbors who are playing very loud music. Minor things i did not like. Personally, i felt how it almost ruined the whole nature vibe atmosphere. It is fine for people who are in to noises other than truly appreciating the birds around chirping, bees buzzing, wild animals like elephants roaring, and the best part is hearing the flow of the water from a small creek/river in front of the room. When you are inside the room, it is very serene and peaceful. It gets quiet after late night and into the morning.

Lugar muy pacífico y cerca de Lion’s rock. Buena ubicación, habitación cómoda, con aire acondicionado, limpia. Desayuno delicioso y la familia muy amable y servicial! También usamos el servicio de tuk tuk que proponen y el señor nos llevó a la madrugada al sitio para ver el amanecer en la lion’s rock, nos esperó y nos llevó de regreso al hotel. Todo súper bien!!! Recomiendo!!!

スタッフが親切で、自分の拙い会話を理解してくれた。貴重なバスの情報を知ることができた。

ちょっとWi-Fiが弱かったかな？

Die Lage direkt am Lions Rock war fantastisch! Restaurants & Kiosk ist auch gleich um die Ecke. Frühstück im Grünen mit Blick auf den Fluss und ganz viel Natur

Great place, beautiful garden and the owner are so sweet and helpful! Super good breakfast
