Fabulous location and layout of hotel, individual separate chalets were superb. The facilities available were readily available and plentiful. Swimming pool, jacuzzis, spa, steam room, pool table, table tennis and gym. Extra activities also available on request, archery and air rifle target practice. Lovely walk round forest paths and new development area.

Nothing, everything was above my expectations.

I’ve said this about many places in Sri Lanka, and it absolutely applies to Sigiriya Forest Edge: the true highlight of this property is the incredible staff. Everyone was genuinely kind, attentive, and made our stay feel both homey and effortlessly relaxing. We were traveling with a baby, and the team went above and beyond to help — from preparing special meals to arranging everything we needed with care and attention. A very special thanks to Tharindu, who took it upon himself to recover and ship our lost jacket from Colombo all the way to Sigiriya. He was also a fantastic resource, helping us discover other local activities and making our stay even more memorable. As for the hotel itself, we loved being surrounded by greenery — it felt like we were staying among the treetops. Our room was comfortable, peaceful, and well-equipped. Also, heartfelt thanks to the restaurant team, who treated us to some of our favorite Sri Lanka.

I personally found the furniture and decor a bit dated. A more modern touch could really elevate the overall experience and bring the hotel to the next level.

The hotel is located in the middle of a forest and while the road there is dark yet magical, once you enter you feel like in a dream. The place is surrounded by a fence to protect from the animals and the rooms are built on columns so you feel very safe. The rooms are wide, tidy and clean with a nice balcony to the trees. The team is absolutely great, attentive and service oriented. I want to highlight Kalana who was our main host and was extremely nice and took care of everting we needed. The food was great and menus was great and fresh and with great variety. Absolutely magical

Nothing

If I could give this hotel more than 10 then I would! We have never experienced this level of service anywhere we have been. All the staff are kind and attentive - their priority is to make your stay as comfortable as possible and they do it all with a smile. The hotel itself is beautiful - individual tree houses for each guest that are connected by a beautiful walkway through the trees. The restaurant, pool, gym, pool room and table tennis are all emaculate. We didn't use the spa, but I have no doubt that too would be brilliant. The hotel puts on transport to the main sites in the area, but as we had a car we didn't need to use this. From check in to check out it was a 5 star experience, we didn't want to leave.

Leaving

The Staff were very polite and friendly couldn't do enough for you. Loved the bungalows, very comfortable and well equipped. Would love to come back.

This was the best value accommodation that we had in Sri Lanka. Rooms have a luxurious feel to them and the whole property is amazing. Wonderful staff. Great food and breakfast.

Nothing. We wanted to stay longer but they were booked out

The hotel truly exceeded my expectations, pictures do not do justice to how beautiful and luxurious this hotel is. We only stayed a night sadly but if I was to come back I would book 2/3 nights here. Sigiriya is an absolutely beautiful part of Sri Lanka wish I stayed longer. The hotel staff were so kind and went above and beyond we honestly felt like royalty all the way from arrival to departure we were well taken care of. I would honestly highly highly recommend this hotel. The bedroom was really big and beautiful and it had all the amenities you could need.

Nothing at all everything was perfect

We really enjoyed our stay at Forest Edge. The rooms are spacious and well equipped and we loved that they were so private and in amongst the forest. While the decor in the main building is quite simple, the facilities are excellent - pool, hot tubs, pool table, table tennis, gym etc, which was great for unwinding. The food was really good too. What really stood out for us was the service. The staff were 100% professional while being warm and friendly, They were fantastic when I had a small accident which needed hospital treatment. They immediately drove me to first a local and then to a larger hospital in Dambulla, helped with translation, and ensured I was looked after before bringing us back. All done with a reassuringly calm and caring manner. Highly recommend this place.

Nothing

Over and above our wildest expectations. Service was exceptional from all the staff but for us Shanahan and chef "Delusha" were stand out. The rooms were new and well equipped and beautifully positioned among the tree tops. Location was rural, away from the bustling crowd, which suited us perfectly. The restaurant menu is extensive and reasonably priced, with good options for kids. If I lived in Sri Lanka I would make a regular visit to rest and recuperate. Really good value and highly recommended. Thank you.

Nothing at all.

We were 2 families of 4 with young adult children and we all really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were very comfortable - modern, spacious and high quality. Each standalone and private. The staff were great - attentive and friendly but not pushy. A nice, clean pool - not massive but big enough. (& a couple of jacuzzis and a steam room). One of us used the gym and gave a good report. We ate breakfast and a couple of dinners and the food was good wife quality and well priced. We found the location good for Sigiriya sights but with a driver, that’s less of an issue.

Really can’t think of anything. It was very comfortable.
