Solo travelerHonestly the best hostel experience I’ve ever had even though I was sick during that time. Lahiru even got me an extra warmer new blanket because of my cold. He is such an amazing person and gave us an incredible unique experience. We got to climb coconut trees in his garden and try to get our own fresh coconut. It was soo amazing. The breakfast was also soo incredible good.
Robbert de Veen
Solo travelerHad an amazing dtay at the Sigiri Serenity hostel. Situated nicely in Sigiriya, the hostel had a very relaxed vibe. There were ample places to chill and meet other travelers, the rooms were clean, and the beds very comfy. What really made the stay as memorable as it was, was pur host Lahiru.

Solo travelerI had a fantastic time at serenity hostel, the rooms are great with top of the like air conditioning so it makes your stay so comfortable. The facilities are top notch, good showers, nice hammocks to lay on and more. Lahiru the (king) owner is a great bloke and he puts alot of effort into ensuring you have a good stay. They always help organising tours or with your day to day activities. The breakfast is also very tasty would definitely recommend. If I could rate the service 6 stars I would. 10/10 would stay again. Best hostel in all of sigirya maybe even Sri Lanka as a whole
