Waddle Sukriya is a beautiful home/bnb in a large compound around3 to 4 km from the rock. The rooms are at the back a bit further away from the main building, which is good. The rooms are comfortable and usually have air con. The breakfast was included in the deal and was the usual deal of a plate of fruits,... More

Room somewhat away from main building and very tired looking - certainly in need of some renovation. Dinner was the most expensive we had in our 3 week travel to Sri Lanka and the food was very ordinary.

Sigiriya was one of the highlights of our 12-day trip to Sri Lanka. Wadula is conveniently located in a shady grove ~ 10 min bike ride from Sigiriya Rock and close to Dambulla. The accommodation is budget, but great value. Do not come in expecting designer bathrooms, Martha-Stewart-does-colonial interior decorations and people anticipating your every blink. The time moves slower... More

Wadula offers excellent value budget accommodations with simple, comfortable rooms on a very quiet, peaceful wooded site. Excellent location for visiting Sigiriya Rock & Dambulla as well as the other Cultural Triangle sites. I found the staff to be extremely pleasant & helpful. The food was excellent & good value too. I would definitely like to come back!

We stayed at Wadula on the third night of our trip and were very dissapointed (We knew it was a risk from looking at the previous reviews which were quite a mixture) When we turned up we had to wait in the reception room for about 25 minutes whilst our room was being made, we had turned up about 1...

We selected Wadula, based on trip advisors tips and we were not disappointed. We actually planned for 1 night but then my wife and kids liked the place so much, we had to cancel our nuwara eliya leg and stayed for another night at Wadula. The rooms are quite big and away from each other so that your privacy is... More

Sigiriya is a very interesting place to visit while in Sri Lanka and this hotel is a good base to do this. It is good value, but if it's the best B&B in Sigiriya like ratings say, I dont know.

This hotel is very conveniently located because it's so close to Sigiriya Lion Rock. The rooms are big and clean but very empty and basic.

Hotel Wadula is a no-frills place near Sigiriya Rock. It is by no means close, so you will have to take a rikshaw to get there. The hotel is grossly overpriced for what it offers - large, spacious, old rooms that are in desperate need of refurbishment. The bathroom is barely acceptable, really just barely. If you are anywhere above... More

This is a lovely hotel, which was clean and run by really friendly owner and staff. We arrived late in the rain, and having made a reservation, the owner had already cooked us a lovely dinner.
