Amaara Forest Hotel Sigiriya

Superb hotel with extensive grounds hidden away along a bumpy country lane. All the staff were very friendly and couldn’t do more to help even when things went wrong (our room door wouldn’t lock after we’d checked in at 22.00 and 5 members of staff resolved the problem & moved us to another room) The a/c rooms were comfortable- free Wi-Fi and plenty of hot water for the showers. The food at the buffet breakfast and dinner was both varied as well as excellent (there was a chef cooking tasty omelettes at breakfast and Mongolian bbq’d and stir-fried evening meals) The bar was well stocked - as it was so warm I’d recommend the very quaffable Lion beer. I’d thoroughly recommend this hotel as it is in a very quiet location close to Sigiriya and Dambulla with a wonderful swimming pool to cool off after a day exploring the local area.

One of the best hotels to stay in. The rooms are spacious the surroundings are awesome. The staff is so friendly and the food and beverage and service outstanding. There is a tree house to dine on request and a stream if you prefer to take a dip instead of the pool. It's a bit away from the main road which makes it special. It's like staying in nature but with all the modern comforts. To top it off the location is rather central to visit other historical and touristic areas.

We had a very relaxing stay, the hotel is beautiful as are all the staff. The buffet meals were great especially the fresh cooked while you watch - rice and noodle dishes, and the banana fritters. I would like to mention how lovely Nirasha Rathnayake is, she is a knowledgable local young lady from Kandy who is studying Hotel, Hospitality management. Nirasha spoke fluent English, she is very friendly, kind and helpful. We wish you well with your studies and hope you love your chosen career.

Great, quiet hotel. Amazing pool and spa. Rooms were extremely spacious and clean. Grounds are extensive and well maintained with many sightings of the local wildlife. Staff were so friendly and accomodating, amazing customer service.
