Short tuk tuk into town, not walkable in dark. But reasonable price and very quick journey (2 mins)

Tasty, fresh, and generous portions!

We had a lovely stay at Woodholic Homestay. The hosts are very kind and helped us with everything we needed. We had a great breakfasts and offered lots of specialities from the recent new years celebrations, which was a real treat!

A very cozy place with clean rooms and bathrooms. Though minimalistic, the facilities were good for a leisure stay. The dinner and breakfast we had were very tasty and filling. The owner family who manage the facility are very friendly and always ready to provide more. Our package was inclusive of only breakfast. However, they provided dinner but were not willing to take money for the same and we had to force them to accept some amount. Madara who manages the whole facility speaks English and is an excellent host. Due to trees all around, expect some mosquitoes and be prepared. Clean towels were provided but you need to carry your soap and shampoo which we do whenever we travel. Overall a great experience and would surely recommend to family and friends.

We spent 2 nights in this appartment and it was really amazing. The family is very kind and helpful when it comes to organising some trip-we went to Safari and it was great. The breakfast was tasty! You feel like in the jungle 😊 I would 100% recommend.

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful homestay! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the warm and humble family. The father, a talented carpenter, has crafted all the furniture by hand, and the house feels like a true labor of love. The mother and two daughters were incredibly friendly and made us the most amazing meals every day. This place is perfect for anyone looking to stay a bit away from the more touristy areas around Sigiriya, surrounded by nature and tranquility. Staying here also means supporting a truly awesome family and their dreams. We couldn’t recommend it more! We miss you already! Katarina and Mateja

A little bit out of the centre of town, but easily walkable or the hosts are happy to organise tuktuks.

The room was lovely and clean and spacious, with air con and a nice bathroom. The hosts were very friendly and happy to organise tuktuks and bikes for us, even getting us a tuktuk at 5am for going up Pidurangala Rock at sunrise. They cooked us a delicious breakfast and were able to provide dinner one night as well for a small extra fee. 10/10 would highly recommend this lovely family homestay.

A truly unforgettable homestay experience! Madara and her family are incredibly warm and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a refreshing drink and felt right at home. The room was cozy and comfortable, and there was always hot water. The Wi-Fi worked flawlessly throughout our stay. Breakfast was always a treat: abundant, varied, and satisfying, with plenty of delicious options to choose from. Madara’s mother is an amazing cook, and we were lucky to enjoy some of her home-cooked meals. What really stood out was how much effort the family put into making sure we had the best experience. They helped us rent bikes, recommended great local spots to eat, and even gave us a lift to the bus stop when it was time to leave. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a warm, authentic, and hassle-free experience.

It could have been a bit more clean but it didn’t make a negative difference for us.

The friendliness of the hosts! It’s a very sweet family, they fully took care of us during our stay, including helping us arrange a mechanic for our tuk tuk and recommending local restaurants that turned out to be an amazing experience! Definitely recommend staying there!

Review for Hotel Woodholic in Sigiriya: 9/10 Hotel Woodholic is a true gem in Sigiriya! The standout feature is the exceptional hospitality of the owners – they go above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable. The cleanliness throughout the hotel is impeccable, which makes the experience even more pleasant. The breakfast was an absolute highlight: fresh, plentiful, and absolutely delicious – the perfect way to start the day. The value for money is outstanding, making Woodholic a fantastic choice for travelers seeking comfort and quality at an affordable price. The only minor drawback was a slightly musty smell in our room. However, this had little impact on the overall experience, as everything else was simply perfect. We highly recommend Hotel Woodholic and would love to return!

Would be great to have and extra table in the room and a the rubber swipe for the bathroom floor.

Lovely, helpful family, great food (we had both breakfast and dinner here, easy communication. It is a simple accommodation but well managed. Very warm water in the shower - which is not a given in Sri Lanka :)

I had a nice and chilled stay at Woodhoolic. As soon as I arrived there was a technical issue in my room and as it needed time to be fixed, I was given the other room available (the family room) which was spacious and comfortable and glad that it had A/C too! The area is very quiet and the family is welcoming and friendly. Breakfast and food in general were delicious and of generous portions!
