I had a great stay close to nature in the shared room with 5 beds and connected bathroom. Great common area a few meters from the room. For me it was almost like a homestay, because of the hosts (and families) friendliness. The host showed me around the area, including touristy and non-touristy spots, that were almost more impressive, since I would not have discovered them any other way. I can highly recommend staying in Sigirya Rastha hostel and get to know the area through a locals eyes.

I booked this place last minute and wow… what a surprise. It’s not just a bed—it’s a whole vibe. It’s clean, cozy, safe, and bursting with traveler energy. Every night felt like a new memory. One of those spots you want to gatekeep… but can’t, because it’s too good.

The hosts and their project :-) The location, both in the middle of the jungle and at walking distance from the Lion’s rock. The hostel “front yard” is fantastic! The place is simple, with a good bed (with mosquitoes net) and the room has a fan with a remote control. Breakfast was super!

Just about the closest you can stay to the Sigiriya lion rock (you should get there at 5am to beat the crowds and an amazing sunrise). The owner gave me awesome personalized recommendations. Lined up a safari where I saw maybe 30 wild elephants. So many babies. Looks newly remodeled and very clean. Perfectly clean sheets and towels. Attention to detail. Large nice bathroom. Good local in house breakfast. Very relaxed town, close to easily walkable restaurants. I suggest the train here from Colombo 4$ second class. A perfect stay thanks to the super knowledgeable local host. Thank you

All hostels in Sigiriya

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The common area is very well put together, gives homie-vibes and it's very prone to meet other travelers in the hostel. The staff of the hostel, also, promote a good integration for everybody, organizing certain activities in group that everyone can participate in, like going to the lake, watching sunset in a secret place or doing BBQ Best hostel for backpackers and solo travelers no doubt Ah, and the food is amazing. Excellent really
